Here's a thread of verified civilians trying to survive in Gaza. Their Bsky accounts are constantly deleted, so I’ll post directly to their funds. These are real people, in desperate need of help. We’re their only lifeline due to the aid blockades. Please give if you can and share. 1/17

This is objectively abnormal, insane and genocidal, and anyone who is still in denial that the war aim is quite simply the destruction of the Palestinian people in Gaza is an unserious human being who does not have to be engaged with.

When I see a book ad with lists of tropes and character intros, I feel like I'm being focus grouped at. It's so corporate, it's so flat. No vision, nothing specific or idiosyncratic, just repeated overtures to how relatable and familiar the work is.

Shimaa has been struggling with her baby for so long. For so long. Please please let's do whatever we can for my lovely friend and sister Shimaa 💕 ❤️ please

I think it's telling that people who dissent from the cause of Palestinian independence don't actually want to engage in substance with this point. The idea of accepting 242, recognizing Israel, forgoing armed resistance, accepting US hegemony, etc is that we'd get something. We did and got nothing.

“They said the quiet part out loud!” Babe, it’s always been out loud. Find a new phrase.

Okay this actually really helps contextualize so many comedy bits in screwballs from the 30s

I mean this is pretty clearly already happening, as with the British Jew who was denied an application for Aliyah last year not because of any questions about his Jewish identity, but because of his participation in anti-occupation activism in the West Bank: www.jpost.com/aliyah/artic...

More than 370 Palestinians have been killed by Israel this week, as the UN continues to warn of imminent mass starvation

Land acknowledgement in a ketamine clinic ad on Lex is just. If I wrote it as a joke scenario it would be critiqued as “a little on the nose”

'Oxfam’s Khalidi said today that #Israel ’s actions represent a “total disregard for humanitarian norms”. “This isn’t just a crisis – it’s a collapse. It’s a collapse of basic survival. It’s a collapse of dignity. It’s a collapse of the international order,” ...' www.thejournal.ie/familines-in...

Sahar has been hospitalized with a severe insect borne inflammation and is stuck in the hospital for 10 days. Shes providing care for her family and they need help urgently now. Please do what you can to help my friend Sahar, who has always been so kind and strong for her children and needs us now

Watching the Matrix Reloaded sex/rave scene and truly how can you tell me this isn’t essential to storytelling

Saw someone post something to the effect that you’re not really doing mutual aid if you’re not like, posting gofundmes every day. Mutual aid is supposed to be about creating systems to meet each others’ needs beyond the state and capitalism, not just posting the capitalism bandaid every day.

I don’t know if it possible to discuss the issues with gerontocracy when it always seems to turn into “and they might be *disabled*”

If the inevitable sequel to "Up" is titled anything other than "Down," I will personally burn Pixar Studios to the ground.

Now you go tell those other bandits that you and your boys got licked down here at Pussy Junction

"The report said that BART has not explicitly defined how fare evasion enforcement actually increases revenue and makes the system safer."

Why are they treating this like a normal news story??????????? You can’t just forcibly relocate a population to a war-torn desert! It’s a war crime! My god

One of my favorite interviews in a long time. I’m already so blown away by the reach this episode has had and how many people from around the country have contacted me to get help resisting Flock in their own rural communities. Thank you!

People hoping that literature will meet this political moment...Umm, I have bad news about how long it takes to write and publish a novel.

my husband just described the key difference between punk genres as ‘liberty spikes versus bald guys who yell a lot’
