The Tangled Grief of Israel’s Anti-Occupation Activists Israelis who advocate for Palestinian rights are simultaneously absorbing two streams of traumatic news: the brutality and extent of Hamas’s attacks and the bombardment and siege of Gaza.

Finally had a moment to read this piece. Almost all the people quoted in it are either friends, people I know, or friends of friends, people I respect tremendously.

No real words to share, just deep pain and resonance.

My feed is full of news of what's happening in Israel-Gaza as well as the US Speaker election fiasco and headlines like "JORDAN LOSES MORE ALLIES, PROMISES TO ESCALATE" are freaking me tf out till I figure out it's just a politician failing to grab power and not WW3

Wab Kinew wins one for Canada His win in the Manitoba election shows that U.S.-style culture war politics don't always play well in Canada. Now it's up to progressives in the rest of Canada to keep up the fight — and keep them o...

Wab Kinew's election victory isn't just for Manitobans -- it's also a welcome win in our shared fight against American-style culture war politics coming to Canada. www.nationalobserver.com/2023/10/05/o...

english allows for really fuckoff complicated syllables that very few other languages would let slide. like "strengths". that's one syllable. eight sounds, one vowel. one syllable. consonants clustered way too close to each other. Unforgivable.

i think it's kinda fucked up we let the english language get away with whatever's happening at the end of words like "ghosts"

Congratulations to Wab Kinew and the Manitoba NPD on their landslide of a win yesterday!

I hope every racist, homophobic, transphobic politician in Canada loses sleep tonight. Manitoba has sent a clear message on the heels of these nationwide anti-LGBT demonstrations you prop up so proudly.

I hate to screenshot the other place but @doubleemmartin.bsky.social hit it out of the park with this one. Truly humiliating campaign strategy.

We've been sending transmissions into space for 100 years, so of course aliens avoid us. Earth is the douchebag at the beach blasting music on their bluetooth radio.

NBC Study: Covid's racial disparities made some white people less vigilant about the virus A researcher said that the findings show that white people tend to care less about Covid and its impact when they believe it is “not a white people problem.”

NBC “When white people in the U.S. were more aware of racial disparities in Covid-19, they were less fearful of Covid-19,” said Allison Skinner-Dorkenoo, assistant professor of psychology at the University of Georgia and co-author of the study. “We found evidence of less empathy for people who are vulnerable to Covid-19 and we also found evidence of reduced support for safety precautions to prevent the spread of Covid-19.” She added that the findings show that white people tend to care less about Covid and its impact when they believe it is “not a white people problem.”

Why do many surveys show that white people are far less likely to take COVID precautions like masking than people of color?

‘Whenever I read articles insisting that it's time to return to the office, I'm always struck by the undercurrent of rage: the anger that workers might actually want to have a decent work /life balance, but also that people might not be subjected to the conformist pressures of office life.’

Exactly!

I'm convinced they're holding off until they're distributing the flu shot, so they can do it all in one go. More efficient? Maybe. But there's no way we're going to get through this next month at school without getting COVID again, and then we can't get the vaccine, soooo...

dogs are magnificent

As a trans person with a child, I’ve spent time in schools. I recall tiny kiddos seeing me, registering something’s different, but invariably, there’s a shrug moment, and we all move on.

This is what’s being protested today. Children finding the humanity in everyone.

The two biggest pieces of advice I give to young women in my work is

1- Always prioritize feeling safe over being nice

2- Attention from older guys feels nice but it actually says nothing about our maturity and everything about their immaturity.

Queer people are being labelled groomers for daring to simply exist and yet, this is actually a groomer.

Dumpster labeled “Earth Boring”

alien graffiti can be pretty hurtful

"You'll get more conservative as you get older"

Me at 15: "Wouldn't it be good if there were regulations to protect the environment and make people's lives better?"

Me 30+ years later: "We're not going to make it through this unless we burn capitalism to the ground."

Any time Canadians want to stop pretending we are some sort of hate-free utopia, that would be great. This is happening here (and no, it's not just an American import).
