If the child were a dog or a cat, everyone would have donated to him.
Many days have passed without anyone donating, unfortunately.

Really annoying how all these sites now let you save images in WEBP format but you can't upload them as that. Have to convert to traditional photo file formats.

Missing seeing many of my favourite bands/musicians because they're playing at History in Toronto. 1) I hate how far from the downtown core it is, and 2) Drake (partly) owns it.

We have concentration camps in America and it still has not truly hit public consciousness or the level of discussion we see around other subjects.

This is how these things become normalized. We simply cannot let ourselves become desensitized, we *have* to keep pushing the discussion.

Two things can be true.

-mRNA vaccines are a huge advancement and are critical to stopping acute death from Covid

-the Covid vaccines were absolutely not sufficient to stop the spread of Covid, as seen by many waves since, and masking is a key strategy to address this insufficiency.

In an Ontario FB group someone posted residue on their car looking similar to ash. Another person commented, "Imagine what's happening to lungs and hearts with those particles". People mentioned HEPA filters but no talk of respirators! It's as if that has been wiped from existence by the majority.

Eww just saw the Airbnb ad that uses gen AI. It looked so bad and what they used could have easily been found. But it's clear they don't want to pay usage rights.

Hind Khoudary reports that Odai al Quraan, a Palestinian health worker, was killed when an air dropped aid pallet landed on his tent. Meanwhile the air drops are doing nothing to address starvation across the strip.

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.

A Reel popped up on my explore page with a WOC (micro) influencer having to defend their "goth-ness" because people were criticizing that she wasn't. The criticism was valid (e.g. to not buy fast fashion) but I don't see the same happening for white women goth influencers doing the same thing.
