why bother caring about the environment when 1. It’s so obviously a lost cause and 2. There’s definitely going to be a nuclear war?

And what are you doing about it Anon? Learn about ecological restoration or get out of my way.

A reminder that sell-buy dates or best-used-by dates are not the same as expiration dates.

I love that a food bank is providing this info as they are experts in stretching food budgets and knowledgable in shelf-stable food items

We are taught to believe history progresses, that its moral arc bends toward justice. But what we are witnessing in Gaza is the collapse of that illusion. No number of rationalisations can obscure the fact: a nation armed with F-16s and nuclear weapons is systematically bombing refugee camps, hospitals, and mosques, starving, displacing, and erasing a people under the world’s watchful eyes. Despite claims of “disengagement” in 2005, Israel’s current campaign lays bare a deeper truth: the intention was never to relinquish Gaza, but to manage it as a walled-in ghetto: controlling its airspace, borders, water, and movement, while evading responsibility for its people. I do not write as a politician, but as a poet of Palestinian descent and a Muslim voice for peace. I write in sorrow, not hatred. And I write because silence, in moments like these, becomes a form of betrayal. The moral collapse is staggering. A state armed with one of the world’s most powerful militaries has unleashed its arsenal on a captive population with nowhere to flee. Hospitals are leveled. Journalists are killed. Aid is blocked. Whole families are erased in a single strike. And much of the world watches in paralysis, or worse, in complicity. There is no symmetry here. One side controls the air, the land, the sea and the narrative. The other is struggling simply to survive. To speak of this as a “conflict” is to participate in a dangerous fiction. This is occupation. This is apartheid. This is colonial violence laid bare.
