Let’s be clear about what happened to Jimmy Kimmel Trump’s most brazen attack on free speech yet.

After years of complaining about cancel culture, the current administration has taken it to a new and dangerous level by routinely threatening regulatory action against media companies unless they muzzle or fire reporters and commentators it doesn’t like.

‘Other countries would have preserved it’: Yemenis mourn the demolition of historic mud-brick palaces In the city of Tarim, colourful mansions built by the city’s merchants are being knocked down as the war-torn nation cannot afford to maintain them

257. The Commission recommends that all Member States: (a) Employ all means reasonably available to them to prevent the commission of genocide in the Gaza Strip; (b) Cease the transfer of arms and other equipment or items, including jet fuel, to the State of Israel or third States where there is reason to suspect their use in military operations that have involved or could involve the commission of genocide; (c) Ensure individuals and corporations in their territories and within their jurisdiction are not involved in the commission of genocide, aiding and assisting the commission of genocide or incitement to commit genocide and investigate and prosecute those who may be implicated in these crimes under international law; (d) Facilitate the investigations and domestic proceedings and take action (including imposing sanctions) against the State of Israel and against individuals or corporations that are involved in or facilitating the commission of genocide or incitement to commit genocide; (e) Cooperate with the investigation of the Office of the Prosecutor of the International Criminal Court. 258. The Commission recommends that the Prosecutor of the International Criminal Court: (a) Examine, within its continuing investigation in the Situation in the State of Palestine, the crime of genocide for amendment to existing arrest warrants and addition to future application for arrest warrants; (b) Examine the involvement of officials mentioned in this report for inclusion as those most responsible for international crimes committed in the occupied Palestinian territory.

Today, the UN officially designated Israel’s assault on Gaza as a genocide.

As a party to the Genocide Convention, the U.S. has a legal obligation to obey our own laws, stop weapons sales to Israel, and demand a permanent ceasefire.

End the genocide. Ceasefire now.

Thank you so much to all the kind wonderful people that followed me. I was deeply touched :)

As a half Indian woman and am sick of cultural appropriation. They are profiting of my culture and customs. Luckily they understood and sent a letter that brought charity and understanding.

Quite pleased with last night’s imaging of the moon.

This venomous fish is invading the Mediterranean. One solution? Eat them. Lionfish have no natural predators and reproduce on a massive scale. Can the Mediterranean diet adapt to help limit their spread?

The venomous lionfish have no natural predators and reproduce on a massive scale.

To slow the spread, environmentalists are trying to build demand for buying and eating them — emphasizing that, yes, they are delicious fried or in soup.

We don’t deserve them.

What need of a lamp When day lightens us, What need to bind love When love stands With such radiant wings Over us? What need— yet to sing love, Love must first shatter us.
