From the west coast of Scotland, now living in the heart of Europe. Photography, history, and screaming into the void. And yes, I miss the sea.

When will we finally admit: the Gaza death toll is higher than we’ve been told | Arwa Mahdawi We have no idea how many people have been killed in Gaza but I would bet my own life that the number is far higher than the 60,000 number the media uses

Literally days of confected outrage because a shop assistant in a shop asked a customer in a shop if they needed any help while shopping. This is so infuriating and so absurd.

Israel is doing this with US taxpayer dollars and weapons and diplomatic support.

I know Americans don't like hearing it but we're entirely complicit in this genocide and these barbaric war crimes happening before our eyes.

Epstein’s survivors deserve answers, not silence. The DOJ can’t claim to stand for justice while ignoring the very people who risked everything to expose the truth.

What Happened to the Women of #MeToo? Tina Johnson accused Roy Moore of sexual assault. Then the world moved on, and left her behind.

This is just deeply depressing: women who spoke up during #MeToo often found their lives upended, as powerful men used defamation suits to target them, e.g. Roy Moore is still suing many of his accusers.

I've been building pointless things again. Though this tiny construction (it's less than 5" tall) does at least make a relaxing and meditative soundtrack. Have a listen.

Imagine trying to explain this headline to someone ten years ago.

And I'm not sure "Hitler concerns" quite captures the scale of the problem, when just a few weeks ago the AI system they're integrating was calling itself "Mecha Hitler" and spraying out antisemitic content.

Photos of a starving baby in Gaza shocked the world. Here's how he's doing now Images showing baby Mohammad Al-Motawaq captured world attention last month. In Israel, they were used to support claims that mass hunger in Gaza does not exist.
