I like how rich people and celebrities can just pack their bags and decide to move /leave their countries. It is also why so many of them care so little about politics because they can afford not to.

We need poets, artists, storytellers now more than ever.We need anger but also empathy & kindness. Tell the stories, write the poems.Don't let anyone forget what happened/what's going on. (This is a part of my art project that juxtaposes powerful words against delicate patterns.)

Peace (अमन)
It's always civilians, always innocent children bearing the brunt of war. The past weeks have been horrendous for humanity. They will learn about the ongoing Nakba in #فلسطين🇵🇸 in their textbooks like we learnt about the holocaust in ours.

Eveything that's going in Gaza is so reminiscent of what happened in Sri Lanka (see No Fire Zone). The govt had declared a no-fire zone and huddled people there only to go ahead with sustained shelling and attacks on trapped civilians.

A Chicago-area landlord was arrested and charged with murder and hate crimes after authorities said he stabbed and killed a 6-year-old boy and seriously wounded his mother, because the tenants are Muslim.

The killer stabbed the little boy 26 times.

Jill and I were shocked and sickened to learn of the brutal murder of a six-year-old child and the attempted murder of the child's mother in their home yesterday in Illinois. The child's Palestinian Muslim family came to America seeking what we all seek—a refuge to live, learn, and pray in peace. This horrific act of hate has no place in America, and stands against our fundamental values: freedom from fear for how we pray, what we believe, and who we are. As Americans, we must come together and reject Islamophobia and all forms of bigotry and hatred. I have said repeatedly that I will not be silent in the face of hate. We must be unequivocal. There is no place in America for hate against anyone. We join everyone here at the White House in sending our condolences and prayers to the family, including for the mother's recovery, and to the broader Palestinian, Arab, and Muslim American communities.

The president has issued a statement on the brutal murder of Wadea Al-Fayoume, the six year old Palestinian-American boy who was stabbed and killed by his Islamophobic landlord.

Wadea’s mom was also stabbed but is recovering.

Lack of water worsens misery in besieged Gaza as Israeli airstrikes continue In the besieged Gaza Strip, 2.3 million people don’t have access to clean, running water because of Israel’s decision to cut off water and electricity to the enclave while pounding it with airstri...

Palestinians living in Gaza are running out of clean water and will die from severe dehydration soon.

- Gazans are barely urinating due to a lack of hydration.

- Gazans are drinking water that is mixed with untreated wastewater and seawater.

Antisemitic white nationalist Nick Fuentes admits that he doesn't actually care what happens to the Palestinians but is siding with them simply because he hopes the current crisis will alienate Israel and diminish its influence: "We have to be strategic about it."

You will see more and more of this. Some on the far right try to make it sound like they care about Jews because they want Muslims targeted first. And some are now pretending they care about Muslims because they want Jews targeted first.

Ultimately, they’re coming for us all.

Lot of chicken legs at the gym because so many men hate leg workouts. They all be walking around looking like Johnny Bravo. 😭

Jin, Jiyan, Azadî is a popular Kurdish slogan first used by the Kurdish women's movement. Since September 2022, the slogan has become a part of the protests in Iran.

I saw some pictures and videos of some Nobel Prize winners. They all look so humble, just getting on with their daily lives after having received the amazing news! 🥹

They are very unlike the travel guide in North Karnataka who told us, a bunch of architects in the making, that we could see ALL the arches in a row because each one was smaller than the other. 🤣 (I mean what does perspective have to do with it.)

I love listening (well, eavesdropping) to Nepali travel guides telling travellers what to do, where to go. They are usually so polite and helpful. #Kathmandu (Wait...are hashtags a thing here?)

Some of his money is invested in technology/research that could help humankind. The dedication to this experiment (which is quite likely to fail given what doctors anr scientists know and say) is something else.

What he is doing isn't harming anyone else (yet?). At least he has offered himself for this experiment than a poor primate like E effing Msuk.

Art Historians Join Ecologists To Study Landscapes Of The Past Ecologists worked with art historians to find out if it’s possible to study landscape changes by looking at art from the nineteenth century.

This was such a cool study, I threw out my planned schedule to write about this instead.
