*Israel can't extinguish Palestinian resistance by violence. Palestinians can't win Algerian-style liberation war. Only thing that can save the people of Israel & Palestine & prevent another Nakba is a political solution recognizing both as equal citizens* lrb.co.uk/the-paper/v45/…

@Rachael_Swindon @TheCanaryUK If you post this on your Bluesky page, I'll repost it there ✊

Nothing has changed since Christmas, nothing has changed since this monstrosity of a Labour government fluked its way into power, and has anything changed from last year, or even the year before? No. New from me for @TheCanaryUK #SwindonsSundaySermon thecanary.co/opinion/2025/0…

@Rachael_Swindon @TheCanaryUK If you post this on Bluesky, I'll happily repost ✊

Keir Starmer promised to govern with integrity, but he carried on where the Tories left off. The guarantee of “change” was a brazen lie. Brand new from me for @TheCanaryUK #SwindonsSundaySermon thecanary.co/opinion/2025/0…

@KLChouinard @HighMyNameIsHi Still waiting

@HighMyNameIsHi I feel like I need to at least do both, but I'm like 15 minutes into it at the arena, so it may not happen in full tonight.

Just added my Bluesky account to my profile pic and also here: bsky.app/profile/klchou…

@Rachael_Swindon If you will post this at bsky.app/profile/rachae… , I will repost it 🙏✊

Politics has to change. How can we possibly call ourselves a functioning democracy when four in ten voters feel like there’s nothing worth voting for? The Canary’s A-to-Z of 2024: from Apathy to Zionism and everything in between Me for @TheCanaryUK thecanary.co/long-read/2024…

@Rachael_Swindon I wish you'd start posting on Bluesky. I'm done with Xitter

@justfp Please join Bluesky!

@rjohnston4 @BTRowland I'm well aware of that. Unfortunately, I'll have to check out. I'll be back if things turn around

@geraldmcgrew2 @BTRowland As a fan of the Pittsburgh Pirates, who's ownership is FAR worse, let me tell you that's never going to happen.

summary of my mentions and the LOH comments after 5 games: - trade everyone - fire quin - fire landry - make ressler sell the team - trae worst defender in nba history - risacher bust - capela stinks AND okongwu stinks - injuries don't matter, just an excuse happy halloween!

@BTRowland @rjohnston4 Fans should announce an organized boycott of the team until Ressler pays the luxury tax

@rjohnston4 i've criticized the lack of spending i think more than any media member in the atlanta market so obviously i agree

@BTRowland @billdifilippo @DimeUPROXX You actually have the much higher quality duty. With the exception of Khanna, those are nothing but hacks 🤮

@billdifilippo @DimeUPROXX duty calls me to hawks-wizards, sadly

@BTRowland @JADubin5 *Suns UNDER 47.5. Made money on under last season, giving up 3 more wins this year. Hate construction of this team. KDiva given up playing D. Beal never played D. Nurkic a lumberer. This team needs to score to win and has to do it entirely in half court* @feltb0t/post/DBXnJ88v76z?xmt=AQGz5R2pGTbYIrJV8Sp-2LsPsvIOwauU7tIjOuYB25B02g" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">threads.net/@feltb0t/post/…

@Deftobez @hannibalbox With so many big fights in S.A. now, seems like Turki could make it happen if he wants to. So many of the greatest fights of all time were decided after the 12th

@geraldmcgrew2 @hannibalbox Imagine the clarity of three more rounds on Saturday. And if we gained none, the rounds still would've been compelling.

Artur Beterbiev is the undisputed light heavyweight champion (barely). I wrote about his win over Dmitrii Bivol for @hannibalbox: The Good Left Undone: Artur Beterbiev Decisions Dmitrii Bivol to Become Undisputed: hannibalboxing.com/the-good-left-…

@willis_glen Is Trae okay with prioritizing development over winning?

Would expect it to be bumpy for a while as he has very little NBA expertise It’s comes done to a determination of priorities Maximize chances to win games v invest in development of key young players

I know a lot of fans are understandably fixated on who Quin is going to start But to me the most interesting decision is whether or not Kobe is full time back up PG from beginning of season Had a rough one last night By all accounts they really believe in him. (as do I)

@willis_glen NFL was fun in the 1970s MLB was good before night baseball

Which is more dumb?

@JGHalle @DougHenwood prospect.org/blogs-and-news…

@DougHenwood It will need to be made to fail. Or it will succeed. What are we doing to ensure that it does?

I hope she's right. It was be miserable to replace the dreadful Adams with the dreadful Cuomo.

But from a*socio* economic perspective, I prefer the designation Generation Y (as in "why us"), defined as those old enough to remember the Golden Age of Capitalism as children but too young to have experienced it as adults. Just food for thought 2/2

@DeanBaker13, I was born in 1963. Friday you included me in the the Baby Boom cohort. This may make sense looking strictly at birthrates (many include me in Generation X) ... 1/2

@bloomekatz @tikkunonline Surplus Powerlessness changed my life forever

Rabbi Michael Lerner @tikkunonline has died. A lot of feels, but this book and many of Lerner's frameworks radically changed my life & politics. I'm proud of the work we did at Tikkun & I'm even prouder to call myself a spiritual progressive. Thinking of the whole Tikkun family.
