Donald Trump needs helpers for his appalling neocolonialist project. What else is this ‘board of peace’? | Owen Jones Blair, Putin, Erdoğan, Orbán: the names of those invited to serve say it all. And it’s about so much more than Gaza, says Guardian columnist Owen Jones

❝ Trump's Gaza 'Board of Peace' should terrify you. It's a template for the world - and Gaza is just the start. ❞ — @owenjones.bsky.social

Donald Trump has not assembled a “Board of Peace” for Gaza.

He has assembled a Board of Occupation.

The future of Gaza is not up to Trump, Blair or Netanyahu.

That is up to the Palestinian people.

Translating two beautiful novels into Turkish and enjoy getting to know two female writers; one is from Trinidad and Tobago, the other is from Canada. Sometimes simply feel blessed.

So being against racism and fascism and standing with one’s community for self-defense is now considered a crime? Shame on UNC.

This is Dwayne Dixon. I know Dwayne and the students testifying to how great of a professor he is in the comments on Instagram are as shocked as I am.

Jane Fonda relaunches free speech group started by her father during the McCarthy era In wake of the Trump administration’s censorship threats, the actor re-established the Committee for the First Amendment with A-list support

Solidarity, now and forever.

“This is the most frightening moment of my life,” she added. "The only thing that has ever worked...is solidarity: binding together, finding bravery in numbers too big to ignore, and standing up for one another.”

"Daha sonraya bırakma şeyleri
Daha sonra kahve soğur
Daha sonra ilgini kaybedersin.
Daha sonra gün geceye döner.
Daha sonra insanlar büyür.
Daha sonra,insanlar yaşlanır daha sonra,ömür geçer.
Daha sonra pişman olursun yapmadın diye bir şeyi
Hazır şansın varken"

Zohran Mamdani is saying things like “poverty is a policy choice and politicians have a duty to their constituents to make their lives affordable” and it is making a lot of politicians very very scared that they may actually have to start doing some actual service in their public service jobs.

Bütün savaşlardan sonra
birinin ortalığı toplaması gerekir.
Ortalık kendi kendini
toplayacak değildir ya.

Birilerinin çekmesi gerekir
molozları yolun kıyısına
ki ceset dolu arabalar
yol alabilsin.

- Wisława Szymborska

Manguel imzaları (kısmen) tamam! Ben imzalatırken 3 kitap sınırı koydular, o kötü oldu. 😖 Haklılardı sınır koymakta ama en baştan yapmadılar, sorun orada. Bu arada şunu farkettim: bendeki 7 kitabın hepsinin çevirmeni farklı! Aynı yayınevinde 1 yazarı 1 çevirmen çalışmalı bence…
