UC student with Palestine flag arrested after police say he impeded opposing protest

submitted by https://lemmy.world/u/TokenBoomer

The preachers, who a UC spokeswoman said were not affiliated with campus, left by 4 p.m. Shaikh said it wasn’t their first time there.“Today it was particularly aggressive,” Shaikh said. “They were berating students walking by.”

My First animation

I made a community thumbnail for !vaporents@lemmy.world a few days ago. I thought It would be a fun and creative project to make it animated.

Wow was it a lot of work! I didn’t know anything about gif animations so I looked up a quick tutorial. I made two frames alternating and worked from there. The result is rough in places but im proud of it anyway. It took way more animations than I expected to get things smooth. I learned early on small changes between many frames make for a more smooth viewing experience. Also too many new lines at once looks jaring so it needs to be subtle movement in and out

Passengers shocked as door of Sydney Metro left open during commute

submitted by https://aussie.zone/u/zero_gravitas

In short:

Footage has emerged of a moving Sydney Metro’s carriage door being left wide open during Wednesday morning’s commute.

The driverless metro service was running between Chatswood and Crows Nest about 8am.

What’s next?

The incident is now under investigation, with the Rail, Tram and Bus Union calling on Sydney Metro to stop operations until interim safety measures are implemented.

Judge rejects motion to dismiss lawsuits in raid on Marion County Record

submitted by https://midwest.social/u/mautamu

WICHITA, Kan. (KWCH) - Three federal civil lawsuits filed after the raid on the Marion County Record will proceed. This development follows a federal judge’s decision to reject efforts to fully dismiss the cases on Friday. The lawsuits were brought by Eric Meyer, publisher and editor of the Marion County Record; reporter Phyllis Zorn; and office manager Cheri Bentz.

Good to see that justice is proceeding on this. Silencing the news is not a good plan.

“Locals were arrested, vehicles were damaged and the gates to animal pens were breached, allowing sheep to escape.

The attack follows another major one on Friday, during which settlers beat Palestinians with iron bars, resulting in at least two major head injuries.

Israeli forces arrested 22 Palestinians - but no settlers.”

Floridians “Worried” As Trump Asks Supreme Court for a Preemptive Ruling Whether He Can Nuke the State

submitted by https://ttrpg.network/u/bradorsomething

(Key West, Florida) As the trump administration enters its fourth month of rule, some pundits question how much further “off the rails” the president can go. But those same pundits, as well as state residents, reacted with alarm as trump requested a ruling Saturday whether a sitting president could nuke a US state, namely Florida.

“We all know I told them,” rambled the president at a rally,” I told them. I told them. The nuclear…. You can’t just let that pass. You can’t… the nuclear is a serious option, a very serious option, and really this is all a formality. One button, boom. Boom. One button. Those alligators will feel it, I’ll tell you this folks.”

Trumps apparent desire to nuke his home state is drawing mixed reactions from republican leadership, many of whom see it as a strong message to america’s enemies. “It takes a strong man to fight, but only the strongest man can punch himself,” said Leon Sturbgetter, a cow de-tangler in rural Kansas. “You think China won’t be scared of us, if we’re so ready to drop a bomb we’ll drop it on our wang?”

“He probably means how Florida looks phallic on a map,” said an analyst at the Institute for War Studies who asked to remain anonymous. “Oh, what precedent for dropping a nuke on our own country? I don’t know… maybe like a symbolic suicide? Look I’m an analyst for global studies, I can make as little out of this as I can a homeless man wandering down a median. I mean, at least the guy on the median I can give $5 and hope it might make things better.”

All eyes now turn to the Supreme Court, who will return from an all-expense-paid vacation in Tahiti next week.
