With this order the International Court of Justice (ICJ) – the UN’s principal court – has made it crystal clear: the Israeli authorities must completely halt military operations in Rafah, as any ongoing military action could constitute an underlying act of genocide. - Heba Morayef, Amnesty International

Streetscape of 2 story buildings with balconies, restaurants with tables along the sidewalk. Painted wooden sign hangs from pole, text "NACHO MAMA'S - Mexican Grill - NOLA". Cartoon artwork of a woman seen from waist up; she wears a green dress and a flower in her hair, she smiles and plays castanets. To her right is a large red chili pepper.
Small parade float, raised section with large letters reading: "Mama Roux - HOME is where the TARP is". The float is decorated with blue FEMA tarps and multiple plastic signs as common in the months of slow recovery after the Hurricane Katrina Federal Flood disaster in New Orleans, advertising services with telephone numbers. Various sign texts seen: "DEMO JOE - House Gutting - Local Boys". "I Buy Scrap Copper Wire". "We Tear Down Houses to the Ground". "We Sue". "Flooded by Katrina - Screwed by FEMA".
Colorfully painted food truck parked on street, with 2 story house in background. Central artwork depicts a slightly anthropormophized crawfish wearing a chef's hat and smock. Text above: "EFF ya CHEF". Text at left: "Oysters - Stuffed Burgers - Shrimp - Concoction Corn - Wings". Text at right: "I bet YA MAMA like it".

    @grivettcarnac yes it really is about food insecurity. The founders of the movement this May over on Reddit were very sensitive to the needs of people who find it difficult to boycott because of economic situation and lack of local competition that limits choice. They have published a whole range of options including buying only loss leaders, letter writing campaign, petitions and social sharing. I do feel privileged to join in solidarity https://www.reddit.com/r/loblawsisoutofcontrol/comments/1ck0sl6/boycott_updates/

    Conservative Leader Pierre #Poilievre is a "fraud" for portraying himself as a friend of the working class, the head of the country's largest labour organization said Thursday, urging unions to do everything they can to expose him before the next federal election. #cdnpoli #axethefacts #conservatives https://www.ctvnews.ca/politics/labour-leader-urges-unions-to-expose-poilievre-s-working-class-overtures-as-fraud-1.6852381

    Germany’s out of hand, crazy version of anti-antisemitism continues in full swing. Last week cancellation of Nancy Fraser, this week that of the rector of Glasgow University.

    Dr Ghassan Abu-Sittah, a British-Palestinian medic, has claimed he was invited to give a conference in Berlin about his work as a surgeon in Gaza but was denied entry to the country.

    @pvonhellermannn Thank you for sharing that. Quoting Dr. Abu-Sittah - “I was fortunate enough to be reading ‘We Are Free to Change the World’ by Lyndsey Stonebridge. I quote from this book: “It is when the experience of powerlessness is at its most acute, when history seems at its most bleak, that the determination to think like a human being, creatively, courageously and complicatedly matters the most.” #gaza #Palestine

    This day. Already.

    Another 🇨🇦 house we wanted to see, already sold. Then take the damn listing down. That's happened 2x in 2 days.

    Roofer supposed to fix leak at our Calif. home for sale this wkend. Supposed to pour🌧️ so he'd have to cancel, we;d have to put hold on house; coming today to see if he can do it. Sigh. Did I mention we discovered he's a major Trumpy? We noticed 2 stickers on his truck. I wanted to fire him but can't rt now

    @GottaLaff we’ve been seeing lots of “Coming Soon” signs in our re-sale housing market. Seems many are almost pre-sold by the time the listing goes live. Best of luck 🤞

    canayjun,
    @canayjun@mstdn.social avatar

    @GottaLaff I’ve just noted it on signs here in Southern Ontario. I guess it’s pre-listing to generate interest. I’ve never asked an agent or searched online for it. I don’t know if it’s a regional thing though.

Great article from Daily Hive of people sharing theirs. Visit the Loblaws is Out of Control subreddit to join with more than 39,000 other Canadians who will boycott Loblaws for the month of May. #foodinsecurity #Shrinkflation #pricegouging #groceries #greedflation #Roblaws #cdnpoli https://dailyhive.com/vancouver/shoppers-last-straw-stop-shopping-loblaw

    #Alberta intends to opt out of Canada's national pharmacare plan.

    @gemelliz @Lorian I think any Canadian resident in Alberta should demand to opt in to the federal plan and defy the province - in court. It would be part of the charter right to live and work anywhere in Canada and enjoy the same benefits as all Canadians.

    So here is a thing I am missing in spite of all my cookbooks: recipes to cook in a #tajine!

    I got one (metal, not earthenware, since I have an induction stove), but I don't have any vegetarian recipes to cook in it.

    Recipe recs? I'm pretty adventurous but here also missing the basics.

    Fediverse disclaimer: Please real recipes not a "I just throw whatever I have in the fridge in". And please recipe recs and not recs for where to look things up 😊

    Boost very welcome!

    “In a victory for nurses, teachers and 1000s of unionized public sector workers, Ontario's top court has upheld ruling that Premier Doug Ford's wage restraint legis is unconstitutional.

    ..capped wage increases for most public sector workers at 1% annually for 3 years & has been blamed for an exodus of health-care workers during the COVID pandemic” #Canada

    @GottaLaff makes me wonder whether Ford will now invoke the notwithstanding clause or go Supreme Court appeal.

    canayjun,
    @canayjun@mstdn.social avatar

    @GottaLaff provinces can pass laws and invoke section 33 of the Canadian charter to override constitutional rights and freedoms. Anytime they want. Like a get out of jail free card. They use it quite often. Our constitution is broken.

    Humanity must escape Capitalism. Capitalism epitomizes a system rife with exploitation and inequality. Capitalism creates economic disparities, where a privileged few amass wealth and control resources at the expense of the marginalized many. Capitalism has an inherent tendency to commodify human labor, creating alienation and reducing individuals to mere cogs in the profit-driven machinery. In essence, Capitalism is antithetical to human progress and freedom.

    canayjun,
    @canayjun@mstdn.social avatar

    @WillA763 @tomclearwood @Radical_EgoCom I’d say #capitalism has been around much longer than a few hundred or even fifty thousand years. The first people who gathered, hunted or produced more than they could consume themselves and stored (hoarded) it to sell/trade it for more instead of sharing surplus were in effect capitalist. It might be difficult to overcome the habit, or replace the system, but we should strive to do the hard things.

    Looking for a #fediverse friendly place to do some simple blogging. Any suggestions? Just want to share a story or comment on a book or article. Don’t want to build a blog. Just write a story, post it and share a link here so others can read it. So not Wordpress or blogger etc. If it’s federated with ActivityPub that would be nice. If there’s a free option even better. #blog #blogging #amwriting #Writing
