POLITICO: CONTROVERSIAL MIDDLE EAST DOCUMENTARY WINS ACADEMY AWARD

AP headline about “No Other Land” winning an Oscar

VS

Politico headline for the *very same AP story* about “No Other Land”

Absolutely shameful

Fall 2023 was when I stopped trying to convince people to avoid illness and see the air we share as a connection for which we bear responsibility to each other. After that, the focus shifted to building new ideas of what life can look like, sharing it with others and leading by example

It’s never too late to start masking. It doesn’t matter how many covid infections you’ve had, any infection delayed or prevented is a good thing.

You’re also helping protect others when you mask up. You’re breaking chains of transmission. You’re saving lives.

Why Masks Work Better Than You Think: An Interactive Essay Even partly-effective masks can stop the spread of COVID-19, so long as enough people wear them.

This web site lets you interactively explore the spread of illness with different masks and different percentage masking. Everyone has an opportunity to save lives.

Library lovers & comrades,

Take action now to tell Vancouver Public Library to reverse its anti-Palestinian branch-wide ban on staff wearing watermelon pins and keffiyehs.

VPL's ban is assault on its stated commitments to intellectual freedom & decolonization.

The second in a red panda wearing a mask and glasses, and the third is a rabbit wearing a mask and noise cancelling headphones. Text above reads, "OUR WORK'S NOT DONE YET!" in large . Below in smaller text: "Ceasefire or not, the need for cell network access remains" Below the three animals reads, "Donate to spuport the supply of eSims to Gaza @ bit.ly/eSimsRUs

#ConnectingGaza

I just watched a clip of CBC News with the anchor openly and shamelessly say “We cannot use that word to describe what is happening” in response to genocide being used to describe what has happened in Gaza. The anchor instead describes the devastation as “whatever it is called”.

The way forward is the same as it’s always been - organize your neighborhood, your household, your workplace. Nobody is coming to save us except ourselves. Look out for one another.

Sec. 2. Policy and Definitions. It is the policy of the United States to recognize two sexes, male and female. These sexes are not changeable and are grounded in fundamental and incontrovertible reality. Under my direction, the Executive Branch will enforce all sex-protective laws to promote this reality, and the following definitions shall govern all Executive interpretation of and application of Federal law and administration policy: (a) “Sex” shall refer to an individual’s immutable biological classification as either male or female. “Sex” is not a synonym for and does not include the concept of “gender identity.” (b) “Women” or “woman” and “girls” or “girl” shall mean adult and juvenile human females, respectively. (c) “Men” or “man” and “boys” or “boy” shall mean adult and juvenile human males, respectively. (d) “Female” means a person belonging, at conception, to the sex that produces the large reproductive cell. (e) “Male” means a person belonging, at conception, to the sex that produces the small reproductive cell.

BREAKING: Here is the anti-trans sex/gender executive order. It's extensive, it's bad, and it's often lawless. www.whitehouse.gov/presidential...

And, do not miss in "d" and "e" below, it even tries to put in the beginnings of a personhood argument, for some reason.

Wearing a mask in public indoor spaces is an easy way to make the world more accessible for people with disabilities that also protects the wearer. The best ones are KN95, KF94 & N95

My friend and colleague Dr. Adel El Sharkawy who is a paediatrician shared these beautiful and true words.

“Gaza and Gaza medics redefined the moral and ethics of medicine. I hope medical oath will be Gaza oath, no more Hippocrates. We will teach our children to be like Gazan.”

We’re at 90% my friends. Let’s do it tonight!!

Do not underestimate how €5 and a share is just as bold as €200, and everything in between.

The crumbling and completely unstable empire to our south is a far more clear and present danger to you or I than China or even Russia. The US is now and has been the biggest destabilizing force in the world for decades and decades.

Someone stands next to a bus shelter that reads "Without a strong oil and gas industry we'd all get less for our dollar. Cenovus." A hero added "Without a liveable planet we all won't care about dollars ANYMORE".

Priorities.

this is the hill i will die on

I'm at the National Assembly building. The army is here. And I just saw two soldiers in fatigues getting pushed around by belligerent ajusshis. and they looked legit scared.

South Korean citizens helped lawmakers scale the National Assembly walls so they could bypass military barricades and vote against martial law.

Israel has normalized for the world the killing of humanitarian aid workers, food distribution volunteers, healthcare workers, doctors, nurses, paramedics, and anyone who heals and sustains life in Palestine. This is too much to bear. End this genocide now.
