“It’s really fun to take a lot of anger and attach it to musical theater. This is how my protest comes out.”
My latest is out from @TexasObserver — last week I got to attend a test-run of a new satirical musical, aimed at taking Greg Abbott's career down a peg or two. It was hilarious, cathartic, and probably in very bad taste. texasobserver.org/young-greg-a…

Yup, I've shared this before, but it's an important truth that really needs to be told.
US Politics Channel reshared this.
The US embassy in Lebanon has blocked the establishment of a humanitarian air bridge between Baghdad and Beirut.
Washington reportedly also threatened Lebanon's national airliner with sanctions if its planes were used to transport those wounded by "Israel's terror attack" that caused communication devices to explode across the country.
Al Akhbar reports that the US embassy is behind “mysterious” road works in the Dbayeh area north of Beirut.

“I know what works for Hudspeth County. I know what works on the border. And I don’t care who wants to come across that border to work. … Put a checkmark on their forehead. … But if they want to bring drugs in, if they want to come (to) commit crimes here, then we need to stand hard on that.” texasobserver.org/a-lawmans-ch…

I had a talk called "Unbreakable Linux for Entire Family" today. It had nothing to do with Oracle #Linux, it was about concepts and approaches around #Fedora #Silverblue to make a truly free ChromeOS-like system for friends and family.
I was happy to have a full room of people. It's good to see #OpenAlt bouncing back in terms of attendance.
The recording of the talk (in Czech) is already available online:

Three Palestinian children were injured on Saturday in an Israeli drone strike on a medical clinic during a polio vaccination campaign in Gaza City, witnesses said.
Witnesses said a quadcopter drone dropped a bomb on the Sheikh Radwan Clinic in northern Gaza City as children gathered to receive a second dose of polio vaccine.
Israel faces a genocide case at the International Court of Justice for its actions in Gaza.

At least 55 Palestinians have been killed and nearly 200 injured across Gaza over the past 24 hours as Israeli jets and troops continue to lay waste to the besieged enclave.
Furthermore, at least three children were injured on Saturday afternoon when an Israeli drone bombed a clinic conducting a polio vaccination campaign in the Sheikh Radwan neighborhood of Gaza City.

Happy Saturday! If you missed it yesterday, here's a new batch of Other People's Music. This week brings us a deep synthesis of electronic music's finest moments into something new; some charming bedroom pop; a bit of sound design ambient; a taste of musical mania; and some videogame inspired composition.

Read about it, listen to it and spread it widely via your boosts and shares.
True story:
When my son came out of the closet telling me he was trans, I responded by saying: "I understand, but, being a dad, I am formally required to declare that if you're now a boy, then I no longer have a daughter!"
He fortunately appreciated the dad joke.
