Growing up, my mother worked full time providing care for the elderly and her wages were not enough to house us or feed us. We survived because of section 8 housing benefits and food stamps. We thrived because we were lucky enough to attend good public schools in our small town...

I was honored to contribute a queer, mystical short story to this anthology alongside many incredible Palestinian speculative fiction writers I deeply admire, edited by @soniasulaiman.bsky.social in all her brilliance πΏ
I donβt know what to say except that the Ignytes mean so much to me, are so important for the community. Iβm incredibly honoured to say this is my first win, and a win for all the contributors.
Thank you all! π
I didnβt know what to say before, with Thyme Travellers winning just now. All I have to say is please continue to support Palestinians loudly and without apology.
So much love to you all!
If you donβt see the link between ICE and the IDF, you havenβt been paying attention. We are being asked to accept a world where whole communities are made disposable and marked for disappearance. If we accept that for anyone, no one is safe anywhere.

I spent the morning and afternoon on patrol, and then came home for Understory, the emotional and spiritual support group for activists I co-facilitate. @tanuja.bsky.social was going to cover for me, but I decided I needed to be there, for my sake. I was right.

Massacres are currently unfolding in northern Gaza and in eastern neighborhoods of Gaza City, such as Zaytoun, Sabra, and Shujaβiyya, yet there are no journalists on the ground and no media coverage from these areas.
I don't think people are concerned enough about the fact that the majority of people in the world have objected to this genocide for nearly 2 years and nobody in power cares one bit. They're conditioning us to do what we're told. This isn't just about Palestinians. Just wait until the next pandemic

In the other, Iβm watching the worst horrors, I can barely breathe, Iβm screaming into the void, and nothing seems to help. Unbearable.

The goal has always been to bomb and shoot its way into Palestinian silence. It has never achieved victory. It never will.

Keep finding new ways to fight. Disrupt every war criminal and genocide profiteer, and donate to direct aid projects like Grassroots Gaza and Water Is Life Gaza.

agrowingculture 3 hours ago 2/5 This morning, Israeli forces raided and demolished the Seed Multiplication Unit of the Union of Agricultural Work Committees' (UAWC) national seed bank in Hebron. Using bulldozers and heavy machinery, the Israeli army destroyed the storage warehouses and infrastructure where essential equipment, seed materials, and tools for indigenous seed reproduction were kept. This is not just an attack on a building-its an attack on Palestinian food sovereignty, biodiversity and cultural memory.
Israel destroyed a Palestinian seed bank today. This is such a specific kind of evil, targeting literal hope for the future. Attempting to further alienate Palestinians from their home and land. So much destroyed just for the sake of destroying. It's awful.
