A large sign was placed atop a school building in Beit Lahia, North Gaza, facing upward, so Israeli pilots and drone operators could see it. In Hebrew and English, it said: "School. Please Don't Bomb." On November 3, the Israeli Army struck the building. www.haaretz.com/middle-east-...

I’m not sure what’s going on with my feet lately, but now bending over to pick up a box apparently can make my foot cramp. So… what’s the correlation between candy on Halloween, bending to pick up stuff and foot cramping? 🤔

Jeffries: This is the lesson you've drawn? From the election in November? This is your priority? That you want to bully a member of congress? As opposed to welcoming her to join this body?

Just my 2 cents. But my goal is to ignore the trolls. Give them zero attention. Block them if they annoy me. I think the worst thing we can do on this site is re-create the ad hominem/ personal attacks that occur across comments on Twitter/insta/tiktok/ etc

Finally, I may get catharsis for my hatred of the 1929 Permanent Apportionment Act. I’ve been asking for 500 districts (avg 10 per state), with multimember allotment depending on population density. Cities deserve to run the House the way land runs the Senate.

I would like to speak up today for the trans community. You see, I know a bit of what it’s like to be politically scapegoated. When Japan attacked Pearl Harbor in 1941, suddenly anyone in America who had any amount of Japanese ancestry became suspect. Politicians preyed upon ignorance and fear. /1

As the war in Lebanon expands, more than 1.2 million people— 1/5 of the population—have been displaced from their homes. While most have sought safety in other parts of Lebanon, more than 470,000 people, mostly Syrians, have crossed into Syria in the last six weeks. www.nytimes.com/2024/11/11/w...

For someone interested in the "global middle ages" debates, this global late antiquity stuff looks neat. But this point about collaboration! I yearn for a world where it is just normal and incentives, including tenure expectations, reflect that. The heroic individual genius needn't be our model.

For the 1st prompt of #FolktaleWeek2024, #FolktaleWeekMist I thought I would tell another Canadian folktale about a flaming ghost ship or strange light phenomenon which has been observed in NB in the Baie des Chaleurs.

Deception, disguise and finally a disappearance. This might sound like the premise of a magic trick, but it’s the story of a woman who managed to fool a male-only, world-famous magic society into admitting her, before being kicked out when she revealed her true identity. Now, they want her back.
