70 Palestinian students admitted to Canadian universities are trapped in Gaza. We need Canada to defend our right to education. Reem Hamadaqa is among 70 Palestinian students accepted into Canadian graduate programs who are unable to leave Gaza due to the Israeli siege and genocide.

i wish on jk rowling everything that she wishes on trans people

At some point you need to be describing RFK Jr’s mission and goal clearly: to kill off as many vulnerable people he deems unfit to be living (this is a broad group, including disabled and older people, and definitely poor people around the world, especially PoC)

“The ‘grown women’ of Ireland remember very well what erasure and control and lack of bodily autonomy feel like and it’s for this very reason that we stand so passionately with the trans community today”

Once more, since it seems to go unsaid all too often: famine, disease and disability work in insidious ways to exacerbate each other. And this ‘explanation’ implies that a disabled child having severe malnutrition is ‘fine’ because he’s disabled. It’s depraved.

The baby was brought to the pediatric department of Nasser Hospital on Friday. She was already dead. A worker at the morgue carefully removed her Mickey Mouse-printed shirt, pulling it over her sunken, open eyes. He pulled up the hems of her pants to show her knobby knees. His thumb was wider than her ankle. He could count the bones of her chest. The girl had weighed over 3 kilograms (6.6 pounds) when she was born, her mother said. When she died, she weighed less than 2 kilograms (4.4 pounds).

How many children like Zainab must die before the governments of the world find the backbone to do something? Alex de Waal described this as Israel intentionally, carefully implementing "precisely designed starvation," without precedent since WWII.

Alex scrolls on her phone of a graphic that says "Get off your phone." She says "mental health tik-tok is really sorting me out." She stares at another graphic that says "get off your phone" as the sun begins to set. At twilight, with visible stubble she views another one that says "get off your phone." Nightfall, another helpful tik-tok reminding her to get off her phone."

The war where women’s bodies lost their rights The war in Gaza is not only the story of rubble and airstrikes. It is the story of the girl getting her period under bombardment, the mother bleeding in silence and miscarrying on cold floors or…

Girls bleeding without bathrooms. Mothers miscarrying on cold floors. Women giving birth under Israeli bombs. How Israel's genocide invades the female body—and how Palestinian women in Gaza still resist. mondoweiss.net/2025/05/the-...

This is Canada and the province’s way of “mowing the lawn”. It’s a cull. The less people with claims that compete with theirs over lands and resources the better for them.

So this happened on Canada Day. Toronto Police drove horses into a group of Indigenous people and arrested multiple attendees. Canada sure showed itself and continues to remove Indigenous bodies that they deem unwanted.

This is Telegraph levels of anti-trans propaganda from the New York Times.

found the pdf, send me a dm!

It is coercive for disabled people to be asked over and over again: “Do you want a DNR (Do Not Resuscitate) Order?”

Nondisabled people are asked once.
Disabled people are asked repeatedly.

It is devaluation.
It is ableism.

Every country with citizens on the Madleen should respond by sending a real aid flotilla to Gaza

What's going on with Queer As Folklore? *Deep intake of breath* part 1

erasing the concept of bovinity removes the ability of many to meaningfully discuss their lives

This professor isn’t, and I don’t want my students to use it in my classes either. The point of a humanities education is to learn to think, read and write, to engage critically with the world. Not to let LLMs do that thinking, writing and reading for you.

"easy" lmao

zoomed in version of previous photo to highlight the phrase "we pledge to promote care for dairy animals"

'Dairy animals.' I’m sure there used to be a word for those animals. Someone help me out. Coos? Cugles? Cwowies?

Starmer ‘completely rejects’ suggestion he echoed Enoch Powell in immigration speech, No 10 says. PM stands by his claim the UK risks becoming an ‘island of strangers’, Downing Street says

Starmer: I didn't mean it like that but I also completely stand by it

it goes without saying but fuck keir starmer and his "island of strangers" rhetoric. spreading fear & hate based on racism and xenophobia. as if there weren't literal pogroms attempted last summer

UGH i had such a strong reaction to that moment in the first book too if we're thinking of the same one (it's been a while since ive read it but she and the prince are in a temple to defeat evil beings and they magically remove her clothes??). just trans things 😭

This is the language I put on all of my syllabi this year regarding the use of AI. At this point I don't see any reason to change it.

Canada treating MAID like a pressure release valve will never not horrify me. The cold cruelties of a system that exists to repeatedly communicate the message to disabled people that they are disposable, and more efficient at dispensing death than it is at care.

omg this means I have to catch up immediately

Wait is it a sequel?? Midnight is one of my favourite episodes of TV ever
