One would think that in the world of AI and LLMs the autocorrect function in Hebrew would not be so stupid. #Android #Apple

Gotta love how the tech-broligarchy protects free speech www.bbc.com/news/article...

"Unexpectedly"?!?! Are you kidding? Tariffs, instability, shutting down government services, cancelling caps for meds... What part of this is unexpected? www.nytimes.com/2025/02/12/b...

trying to wrap my head around The Light at the End of The World By Siddhartha Deb. I welcome thoughts... @booksky.club

The world weaning itself from American aid is going to be a painful and probably deadly process. But the end result will be the end of US influence. Kind of an upside. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/11/u...

@kendricklamar.bsky.social You get to appear Infront of the most corrupt and dangerous President, on the most watched sports event, and you use your platform for petty rivalry. I call that bullsh*t

Pitch-perfect item! Thank you @ayman.msnbc.com www.msnbc.com/ayman-mohyel...

That student who's MIA a whole term and then the head of your department emails you saying the student really wants to catch up, has been trying to contact you for a while now.

@saraweis.bsky.social welcome to normal world :-)

I saw this shared on Facebook . Could be fake given the laws in Germany against the use of Nazi symbols. But if not - good for them. The only reason Musk is getting away with this is because he’s too rich

מצוין! כל מילה www.instagram.com/reel/DFAX668...

Long overdue, but time to boycott X www.theguardian.com/technology/2...

Thank you for the optimism and humanity and fingers crossed your home survives. @Zeteo zeteo.com/p/the-quiet-...

שיחה משנות ה-50 על הגירה שלילית בישראל. "יורדים", "עולים", "נישואי תערובת" 🤦🏽‍♀️ pca.st/podcast/2ce7...

Anyone else find Zadie Smith's recent book - The Fraud, tedious and uneven?

One thing for sure, Joe Biden's legacy will be the genocide in #Gaza. Shameful aje.io/c4p6d9

The @nytimes.com has an established history of laundering fake intel then used used by governments to justify wars (e.g., Judith Miller). But laundering justifications for genocidal acts is a new low. Waiting for the pg 10 self recrimination in a year or so. www.dropsitenews.com/p/new-york-t...

This is criminally shameful reporting. As Israel starves, bombs refugees, aid workers, journalists. Per Amnesty commits genocide, you should have the decency to report Palestinian voices as well Israel’s Military Strikes Northern Gaza After Days of Deadly Bombardment www.nytimes.com/2024/12/15/w...

@aymanmsnbc.bsky.social so happy there's finally (!!!) a podcast of the show

An amazing project by Prof. Lee Mordechai witnessing-the-gaza-war.com

Ben & Jerry's sues parent company Unilever for silencing its support for Palestinian rights. Thank @benandjerrys.bsky.social now and pressure other companies to - at a minimum - immediately end their complicity in Israel’s crimes and system of oppression! loom.ly/HujOZdU

"It is time we drop all the euphemisms that help Israel shield itself from accountability and start calling what’s happening in Gaza what it is: a genocide." — #AJOpinion by Othman Moqbel ⤵️

@thereidout.bsky.social thanks for introducing me to Shaboozey!

I hoped that Bidem in his lame duck days would rediscover his anti-war instincts and end the Gaza war, wind down the futile war in Ukraine. But seems this is the legacy he wants #bloodyBiden Ukraine Fired U.S.-Made Missiles Into Russia for First Time, Officials Say www.nytimes.com/2024/11/19/w...

A letter to #JoeBiden and #KamalaHarris: A Call for #Peace and ending the war in #Gaza and #Lebanon www.facebook.com/1411584349/p...

Jon Stewart excellent interview of Ta-Nehisi Coates @thedailyshow.com youtu.be/d0-y0X51Xtw?...

@kamalasupporters.bsky.social The #Harris-Waltz campaign need to issue a statement denying and condeming plans for regime change in Iran or "reshaping the Middle East". It's one thing to ho-hum about Israel's self defence, it's quite another to start another 20 year war in the ME. #ceasefirenow

Palestinian journalist Wafa al-Udaini has been killed, along with three family members, including two children, in an Israeli air attack on her family’s home in Gaza's Deir el-Balah. 🔴 LIVE updates: aje.io/mu9qvk

@aljazeera.com Pleas keep reporting from Gaza. Part of the agenda of bombing Lebanon is to distract the little attention payed to the genocide in Gaza.

Some Americans can trace their ancestry back hundreds of years: Native Nations, African Americans descendents of salves, & some Europeans who arrived in the 15-19th centuries seeking new lives or fleeing persecution. So the majority of you'all are recent immigrants. Be thankful not stingy.

🔴An Israeli raid on the town of Ainata has wounded three people, Lebanon’s National News Agency (NNA) reports. LIVE updates ⤵️

There's a special place in hell for presidents who did nothing while genocides were taking place @BillClinton - Rwanda, @GWBush - Iraq, and current @POTUS. Shame!
