A post on Threads from Miss Rachel, a well-known children’s educator and entertainer: “What’s it like for kids in Gaza?” my little boy asks me. Well, kids don’t have medical care & can’t go to the doctor like us. They don’t get to go to school like you & learn & play. They don’t have enough food or water or a safe place to live. “Why?”🥺 I feel my heart breaking. I can’t tell my son it’s some natural disaster. That there’s not enough food or medicine in the world. It’s that grown-ups are keeping these basic human rights away from children. It’s a choice.

Two posts on Threads from Miss Rachel, a well-known children’s educator and entertainer. The first post says: “Leaders - Be so ashamed that your constituents are begging & pleading for you speak out and you stay silent. Be so ashamed that you put money & power & your career before the lives of precious children of God. Be so ashamed that our religions tell us to give to the poor, feed the hungry & open our arms to all children & you pretend that they mean only for some children.” The second post says: “Celebrities as well. If everyone says something it won’t be controversial anymore. It’s never been wrong to say starving and bombing kids is wrong. God help everyone have the strength to say something. Please, God.”

A post on Threads from Ms Rachel, a popular children’s educator and entertainer: “If you want to be remembered for saying something about Gaza before the entire world does, now would be the time.”

Miss Rachel isn’t on Bluesky, but her posts about Gaza should be. I wish this wasn’t so unusual to see from people with big platforms.

Woman Worried Student Loans Could Prevent Her From One Day Owning Entirely Different Kind Of Crippling Debt PHILADELPHIA—Lamenting that she will spend the foreseeable future paying off her college expenses, local 23-year-old digital marketing assistant Ashley Orlinsky expressed concern Wednesday that her student loans will prevent her from ever owning an entirely different type of utterly crippling debt. “Realistically, it’ll take years or even decades to fully repay $50,000 of loans, which makes me worried that I’ll never qualify for a backbreaking mortgage on a house that I can in no way afford,” said Orlinsky, adding that with $350 in monthly student loan payments, she will likely struggle to even borrow money to purchase a new car that will destroy her credit rating and may one day be repossessed by the bank. “I have dreams of starting my own company at some point in the future, but I just don’t see how I’ll have the opportunity to be saddled for my entire adult life with a suffocating high-interest small business loan if my student debt is following me wherever I go. It’s awful.” Orlinsky was reportedly encouraged, however, after coming to the mistaken conclusion that she could just default on her student loans and have them discharged in a bankruptcy filing.

Israel kills, lies, and the Western media believe it The execution of 15 Gaza medics and rescuers demonstrates just how normalised the dehumanisation of Palestinians is.

"These 15 medics and first responders were heroes. They ran towards danger. They served their people. They believed in the sanctity of life, even in a place where life is constantly under siege. Their memory should be sacred."
