"Nakba and Shoah, the Hebrew word for Holocaust, mean the same thing: catastrophe. I reject the premise that one people’s salvation must come at another’s destruction. I am committed to creating a world where this does not happen — and this cannot be done from within the Biden administration.”

The forest is changing faster than Janzen, Hallwachs, and other researchers can document. There’s not much to do about it except to stop climate change and deforestation, they say, and keep on with their work of restoring the landscape.

It’s funny: #WordPress powers about 40% of the internet but in the #fediverse it is still the underdog ☺️

I like to call it Xitter because in #Portuguese it sounds "shitter".

Enjoying™ running Steam Big Picture on Windows. Best bit is when it forgets the controller exists (often immediately after I've been playing a game WITH THE CONTROLLER) and I have to find the keyboard and mouse to click things.

No, tell a lie, best bit is when it randomly task-switches mid-game back to Big Picture. Really helpful in, say, Rocket League.

If I could get the games I play on a console, I'd dump this godforsaken mess in the bin.

I have spent this week declining work requests that are unreasonable in scope or that make me uncomfortable and I would like a goddamn medal.

“Why a Palestinian Congress, Mr Varoufakis?”, a German journalist asked me recently? Because, as Hanan Ashrawi once said: “We cannot rely on the silenced to tell us about their suffering.”

An European citizen barred from entering an European country.

It's not white justice, or black justice, it's green justice; you're innocent until proven broke.
