Catastrophe Wife

Suleiman Al-Obaid, Gaza football legend, has been murdered by the IOF while trying to secure aid for his family. Let’s see how many football players who have been silent for 21 months of the genocide even mention his name.

Stephen Semler Only 8% of Democratic voters approve of Israel’s actions in Gaza, yet 43% of Senate Democrats just further enabled them by approving another bomb shipment.

I saw the wedding pics so this does not surprise me at all

My essay is up at @literaryhub.bsky.social about the late, great Lana Clarkson and other promising young women whose lives have been derailed or destroyed by men. It’s also about my childhood sexual abuse and how I have tried, and failed, to reckon with it.

Benjamin Netanyahu decides on full Gaza occupation, PMO says | The Jerusalem Post The Prime Minister's Office conveyed the message to IDF chief, saying If this does not suit you, then you should resign.

If you think he decided this today and not in the 1970s when he advocated for Israel invading and annexing Gaza and killing or expelling all the Palestinians there ON AMERICAN TELEVISION then I have a bridge to sell you. Oh and if you don't believe me, search "Ben Netay" on YouTube.

excerpt from linked interview: Did you meet Kubrick when you were a kid? I never did, but my mother and step-father went to have dinner at his house in the countryside. They were big fans of Kubrick, and my mom said it was really weird because every time he said something, everyone would laugh or say, “That’s so great.” It was creepy. Women directors, that doesn’t happen — you don’t have the danger of being treated like a genius and going mad with power. Do you appreciate that? I do. I actually think that’s an advantage. It’s good for maintaining a sense of reality? It’s better to live in the real world.

my favorite celebrity interview of all time is @lilashapiro.bsky.social's 2020 interview of Mary Harron and with regards to the david mamet clip, I think this section is super relevant.

A disconcerting number of high status people upended their worldviews because other people did not affirm that status in the way they thought appropriate.
And social media accelerated this because for high status people it is often the experience of people telling you that you are wrong.

hey all, my little weirdo short film inspired by my wisdom teeth removal was a finalist for the awesome Etheria Film Festival, and will be showing at the Garden Cinema Fiesta Sept 27, to raise money for immigrant advocacy

97 per cent of Gaza’s animal wealth destroyed by Israeli bombing, starvation, and looting Israel has destroyed nearly all animal wealth in the Gaza Strip, approx. 97%, through bombing and systematic starvation

‘They roll right over’: Many Democrats call their party weak and ineffective, AP-NORC poll finds A poll from The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research finds that many Democrats see their political party as “weak” or “ineffective.”

This shouldn’t be surprising. The only way to fight back is to… actually fight back.

If Democrats want to improve their approval rating (or far more importantly, make actual change), we need real leadership to put up real resistance to authoritarianism.

all i know is by the second season it's very clear someone behind the scenes got a divorce

After three hundred days of war, the unrwa issued an analysis describing Gaza’s trauma as “chronic and unrelenting”—a collective embodiment of continuous traumatic stress disorder (C.T.S.D.), a condition that stems from living under relentless trauma. Unlike post-traumatic stress disorder, which sets in after a difficult experience, C.T.S.D. is what occurs when there is no end in sight. Gazans have adapted to chronic danger, living in a state of hypervigilance, emotional numbness, and dissociation amid the slow erasure of any imagined future

Essentially everyone in Gaza is experiencing continuous traumatic stress disorder because their trauma is “chronic and unrelenting.”

This means “living in a state of hypervigilance, emotional numbness and dissociation amid the slow erasure of any imagined future.”
