Who told Lidia Thorpe she could speak for us? Who told her it was okay to scream at the King? I don’t care if you are black, white, royalist or republican. Have some bloody respect. As the monarch, he has earned it. What a disgrace.

Australian white feminist 'influencers' making the 'lesser evil' argument as if there is a hierarchy of evil in supporting the mass slaughter of children and genocide. Ping abbie chatfield and that one from cheek media

I’m on holiday with my brother and every time we see a really old man (like really old) we point at him and say “there’s Joe Biden”. It kills every time.

Lit festivals platforming Palestinian authors = good.
Arts funders and wealthy board members working to silence artists for speaking out against genocide = bad.

This week in KYD, @AlexDane_ writes: As the death toll in Gaza continues to mount, the arts world has started to fracture along sectarian lines. Attempts to censor programming reveal how money, politics and power intervene in our national culture.

This is a children’s book that was written because the author was trying to explain what’s going on in Israel to his five-year-old daughter and he couldn’t find a resource with which to do it so he wrote one himself. Under the Rockets' Glow: Shira's Journey to Courage by Roman Sandler is beautiful and I recommended highly.
