There's hope & when there's the opportunity to embody it, we do. "... the sheer number of ordinary runners who showed solidarity ... They clapped us ... raised fists & peace signs ... filmed us ... reached across the barriers for high 5s ... shouted “Free Palestine!” And we cheered them harder."

Discworld QOTD, from The Truth
“But it’d be a bit silly, wouldn’t it, to let them use your own house—”
“No, just very, very arrogant,” said William. “We’ve always been privileged, you see. Privilege just means ‘private law.’ That’s exactly what it means. He just doesn’t believe the ordinary laws apply to him. He really believes they can’t touch him, and that if they do he can just shout until they go away. That’s the de Worde tradition, and we’re good at it. Shout at people, get your own way, ignore the rules. It’s the de Worde way. Up until me, obviously.”
Sacharissa was careful not to let her expression change.

Discworld QOTD, from Thud!
“Vimes had never got on with any game much more complex than darts. Chess in particular had always annoyed him. It was the dumb way the pawns went off and slaughtered their fellow pawns while the kings lounged about doing nothing that always got to him; if only the pawns united, maybe talked the rooks round, the whole board could’ve been a republic in a dozen moves.”

A photograph from the 'peace talks' in Pakistan has revealed JD Vance's abortive attempt to intimidate the Iranian representative while the Lebanese delegation looked on.
A still from the original Karate Kid movie shows a bloodied Daniel in the background while John Kreese towers over Mr Miyagi, pointing his finger disrespectfully in his face. Mr Miyagi looks unconcerned. When these two finally fight, of course, Kreese is quickly reduced to a pitiful, tearful shadow.

One of the very best from Clickhole
From Clickhole's "Incredible! We Asked These Astronauts What It’s Like To Be In Space," Barry Wilmore: You never know true beauty until you see Earth from space, or true terror until you hear someone knocking on the space station door from outside. You look through the porthole and see an astronaut, but all your crew is inside and accounted for. You use the comm to ask who it is and he says he’s Ramirez returning from a repair mission, but Ramirez is sitting right next to you in the command module and he’s just as confused as you are. When you tell the guy this over the radio he starts banging on the door louder and harder, begging you to let him in, saying he’s the real Ramirez. Meanwhile, the Ramirez inside with you is pleading to keep the airlock shut. It really puts life on Earth into perspective.

You know, it’s just possible to feel really bad about the violent deaths of Israeli Jews, the genocide in Palestine and the deaths of Australian Jews all while being neither anti-Semitic or Islamophobic. Somehow that has become impossible for the political class.

Australia declines to join statement criticising Israel for Unrwa demolition
The Albanese government has declined to sign up to an international statement expressing concern about Israel demolishing an aid agency’s headquarters.

The foreign ministers of 11 nations, including the UK, Canada and France, strongly condemned Israel for demolishing the East Jerusalem headquarters of the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (Unrwa) in a joint statement issued on 28 January.

It called on Israel “to fully abide by its obligations to facilitate the delivery of humanitarian aid to the Gaza Strip in accordance with international law”, saying current aid levels were inadequate.

Canberra was invited to join the most recent declaration, but declined the offer without an explanation, one diplomatic source told AAP.
