Lol, sometimes I think I’m living in a Philip K. Dick novella. The guy loved playing with the idea of “time slips”, etc. I think “The Man in the High Castle”, where in that timeline the Nazis won WWII. I think someone made a movie of that one, maybe not. Then I look at Stephen Miller’s mug, and I think “wait a sec, could it be?!”. Yep, I am a fan of the multiverse, and ready to move to a better timeline anytime now. That works for me.

It was a show on Prime I believe. I watched a couple of seasons, it was tough to get into really, despite the great source material.

Man in the high castle was made into a mini-series or whatever they call those nowadays. It was very good but it sort of ended without a conclusion.

Since the Bondi shooting there has been a real push from the right wing in this country to silence criticism of the state of Israel. The Israeli state has a strong influence here and runs several front organisations that advocate for their apartheid state and continued genocide in Gaza. It is typical for any talking head that opposes Israeli occupation and brutality on TV to be met with a number of official complaints, it is a strategy that has been employed for years to silence any dissent and criticism of Israel. This pressure led to a writer and academic being banned from the Adelaide Writers Week, the reaction was swift some `180 writers withdrew from the festival out of solidarity and the festival has now been itself cancelled. Here is some of the fallout
