Life here boggles the mind. The difference between our real situation - under attack, everywhere, from every direction - and the lies we tell ourselves - we are liberating the Middle East and ensuring our security - has never been bigger. This is not conducive to life.
Brilliant episode of Al Jazeera's Inside story with @origoldberg.bsky.social, Francesca Albanese and Stephen Zunes. Highly enlightening and well worth watching.

What a shameful day to be an Israeli. We have done all we can to safeguard our impunity. It is the one thing we seek above all. We will not stop our crimes, but our crimes have been formalized, branded on our forehead. We can no longer wish ourselves away.
Very weird. I'm new. Any thoughts (thanks in advance).
2/ Oblivion is not inert. It is eternally ravenous. To thrive, it must continue to consume reality. When there is none left, oblivion will beginning turning on itself. It cannot rest. We pretend we cannot feel the oblivion we birthed pawing hungrily at our necks. We lie.
1/ Israel cracks the foundations of reality in Gaza and in Lebanon. Whole buildings are decimated. Whole families are erased from the population registry. We make holes in the middle of things. Reality seeps away through these cracks. The vacuum left destabilizes the remnants of reality. --->
Another massacre in Beit Lahiya. Nearly 100 confirmed dead. More than 100 injured. This is the official count. Why is Israel doing this? Because Israel is hollow. We have killed so much any core we had has dissolved. We have denied and deflected so much we are left with nothing. We have only death.
Moi aussi. I'm expanding, not leaving :)
3/ We want to determine who should be counted as terrorists and then we want to blow them out of any and all water whenever and wherever we want to do so. That is the new world order. Realtivity has expired. If you don't reign supreme and absolute, you're dead.
2/ Israel is not looking for a decision. Israel wants the world's formal assent to its ushering in of the new age. Throughout its history, Israel has enjoyed total impunity. Now we would like it certified. We want a ceasefire that will give us complete discretion over life and death. --->
1/ Once again, these days are presented as "decision days" in Israel. "Deals" are the order of the day, in the spirit of the incoming Trump administration. Ideologists crow but they remain on the short bus. These are the days of naked power, the time of wolves. --->
ุญุจูุจุชู!

I'm nearly 48 years old and only now have I begun to understand and relish the difference between "this is good" and "I like this". It was once clear to me, even obligatory, that "I" needed to adjust so I might fit the "good". Now, more and more, good and bad, "I" am. I am.
I had a good summer. I was fortunate enough to freeflow with my loved ones. Went out this morning (drove kids to school) and freaked out a little. Y'all are way frenetic come September, and I may be more introverted than I thought. I admire you for the hustle. I'm probably the weakest link.
