"The scenes are truly shocking – they resemble the horrors of judgment day. Sometimes within just half an hour we receive over 100 to 150 cases, ranging from severe injuries to deaths … About 95% of these injuries and deaths come from food distribution centres – what are referred to as the ‘American food distribution centres’”

DESPITE OUR COLLECTIVE EFFORTS TO STOP THE PROSCRIPTION OF PALESTINE ACTION, THE BAN WILL COME IN AT MIDNIGHT
In five years, we have managed to build a direct action movement which successfully disrupted and challenged the Israeli weapons industry. Through relentless actions and the willingness to sacrifice our liberty, we’ve forced shut three Israeli weapons factories, pressured over a dozen companies to cut ties with Elbit Systems and cost the Israeli weapons maker £billions in lost contracts. The most important victory is building an effective global movement in service of the Palestinian people.
It’s clear, we were too effective and the government had to impose the most draconian attack on civil liberties to please the pro-Israel lobby. They may be able to proscribe ‘Palestine Action’, but they can not stop direct action happening across the country in different forms. We are more than just a name, or a network, we are an idea that can never be stopped. To be clear, they can not proscribe the TACTIC of direct action for Palestine.
We are extremely grateful for all of the support we have received over the past few years, and the outpouring of solidarity since the intention to proscribe us was announced. This proscription CAN NOT go unchallenged, and we are pleased to see many who are adamant on resisting the ban through a campaign of civil disobedience.
Breaking unjust laws is a moral duty. Unaffiliated campaign groups, Defend Our Juries and ‘we do not comply’ (wedonotcomply.org), will lead on defiance of the ban and resist the extreme counter-terror laws imposed on all of us. It is a given that there will be resistance.
However, we are also aware that anyone, knowingly or mistakenly, could be committing a terrorist offence just by liking or sharing our social media posts, if they are a British national or are in the ‘United Kingdom’. This could lead to vulnerable communities being harassed and targeted by the state. Whilst we encourage and support a campaign of civil disobedience, all who take part must do so on an informed basis. That’s why our social media will be taken down. For clarity, Palestine Action is ONLY proscribed in Britain.
Many will be rightfully angry at the imposed proscription of Palestine Action. However, with repression always comes more resistance. This is a moment that the British state will likely come to regret. It’s a signal to all of us who are willing to resist, to make the ban unenforceable.
We must resist for our own rights and most importantly, for the Palestinian people facing a genocide. We are all Palestine Action isn’t just a slogan, it’s a state of resistance.
COLLECTIVELY, WE WILL RESIST AND ULTIMATELY, WE WILL WIN

"In five years, we have managed to build a direct action movement which successfully disrupted and challenged the Israeli weapons industry"

Sometimes I have to remind myself that although humans are smart enough to have made the Internet and fancy gadgets and nuclear weapons, many, many people still believe there's a white bearded deity in the clouds who will make everything good once his hippie son turns everyone who ate his flesh once a week into zombies, so they can all do the Macerena in the sky for the rest of time-- and all simply because the reality of death and injustice are too much to bear honestly.
What a species!
In net, I think it's a negative that comes as a result of our inability to be honest that the world is hard, power is hard to rein in, life is wicked and lacks meaning unless we ourselves give it meaning, and the future is unscripted.
It is a lot of weight to carry, that truth, and most will not do it.

A century back?
Glad you brought it up.
Because a hundred years ago, there was no "Israel."
There was only Palestine.
And Palestinians — Muslims, Christians, and Jews — living side by side under colonial rule.
Then came the Balfour Declaration: a promise made by an empire that didn’t own the land, to a movement that didn’t live on it, while the people who did were treated as if they didn’t exist.
Then came British rifles. Zionist militias. Imported settlers.
A project that saw the native not as a neighbor, but as a problem to be solved.
Massacres didn’t begin on October 7th.
They began in Deir Yassin. Tantura. Lydda. Safsaf. Al-Dawayima. Kafr Qasim.
Places you erase because you know memory is your greatest threat.
The Nakba wasn’t a war.
It was ethnic cleansing wrapped in a flag no one recognized.
You say "go back a century" like it’s a warning.
But history is not on your side.
Because the more we rewind, the clearer it gets:
Palestinians didn’t invade anything. They were invaded.
They didn’t erase anyone. They were erased.
So yes, let’s go back.
All the way back.
Because the further we go, the louder the truth becomes.
And the quieter your myth gets.

Hey, please stop repeating the misinformation that corps are legally required to maximize profits or your shareholders can sue you. It's propaganda promoted by a handful of huge fund managers because they'd *like that* to be true.
Even SCOTUS agrees “Modern corporate law does not require for-profit corporations to pursue profit at the expense of everything else, and many do not.” (Burwell v. Hobby Lobby)
Also, what follows from this is another request I have: do not accept "but we have to maximize our profits!" as an excuse for shitty corporate behavior.
The duty leaders have to shareholders is basic, and comes down to at least trying to make some money; it absolutely does not require anyone to be a complete exploitative asshole. That's a *choice*.

Firefox is fine. The people running it are not • The Register
Money is the problem. Not too little, but too much. Where there's wealth, there's a natural human desire to make more wealth. Ever since Firefox 1.0 in 2004, Firefox has never had to compete. It's been attached like a mosquito to an artery to the Google cash firehose. The Reg noted it in 2007, and it made more the next year. We were dubious when Firefox turned five.
And as for that money — remember back in 2018? That's when Google dropped "Don't be evil" as its motto.
Mozilla's leadership is directionless and flailing because it's never had to do, or be, anything else. It's never needed to know how to make a profit, because it never had to make a profit. It's no wonder it has no real direction or vision or clue: it never needed them. It's role-playing being a business.
This is a good summary of all the good they have done and also how they repeatedly throw out the baby but keep the bathwater.
And this interesting bit.
Mozilla is, sadly, far from alone in having faltering leadership. Around the industry, tech execs who couldn't tell an LLM bot from an MLM scheme if their lives depended on it are investing in AI. It's not just cool, it's a cult now. This isn't hyperbole. The phenomenon has a name – it's called TESCREAL, and it is without exaggeration on its way to becoming a religion.

it's a device for tuning automotive distributors. looks like it's missing the chuck? you clamp the distributor onto that arm, and then a chuck is supposed to go from the plate up to the distributor. you put the wires on it and the thing spins the distributor at various speeds (see the 'engine speed' gauge) and the firing points show up on the plate at the bottom. the charts are various ignition timing information for various engines, so you can see how far off your distributor is and figure out what you need to change.

It is actually very difficult to externally rotate the hips as much as they do in ballet for some people that have never trained in it even if they can do the splits and had a lot of yoga
Balancing on only the toes instead of the whole foot is also challenging
These two features make ballet exercise unique compared too many other common types of exercise and uniquely different than many other types of dance

Sorry for rambling. Perhaps it was just cathartic release.
Aside: yoga is not a fitness regime. It is a spiritual practice to be grounded with Nature. Western ideas have subverted it. Unfortunate.
Also: The Russians were clearly better at this performance of Swan Lake. Synchronization and smoothness of movement.
