The story of the last date in Gaza How a small piece of dried fruit embodies a world of meaning.

"In #Gaza, we have redefined wealth. Wealth is not what you hoard but what you give away and is measured in the strength of the bonds that hold families and neighbors together. In a world that tries to reduce us to statistics, we have become storytellers." - Asem Alnabih, tinyurl.com/3jrr5evt

The US regime deploys the military to take over the city of Washington. A gunman fires 180 bullets into the CDC. A MAGA-inspired gunman hunts Democrats. Freedom of expression is gone. Trump has created "military zones". Our military is being turned against us. We are in BIG trouble. #FascistMaga

Today, #Israel targeted and killed 5 journalists: correspondents Anas al-Sharif, Mohammed Qreiqeh, and camera operators Ibrahim Zaher, Mohammed Noufal, Moamen Aliwa. The U.S., the U.K., and Germany are as responsible as Israel for this assault against the press and international human rights. #Gaza

In memoriam: 80 years ago, 246,000 people were killed in a single flash of fire of light at the hands of the U.S. military. Remember the dead and survivors of #Nagasaki.

Isra*l, the USA, and the UK are war criminals. We are complicit in unimaginable suffering and death—arrest war criminals, not immigrants. #GazaGenocide

Full Moon on Suicide Watch by Salma Amrou - Rattle: Poetry I am trying to write a poem about fifteen Egyptian detainees who attempted suicide in the last two weeks alone.

This poem by Salma Amrou, "Full Moon on Suicide Watch", is extraordinarily moving and the best poem I've read in the last several weeks. @rattlepoetry.bsky.social rattle.com/full-moon-on...

Sometimes when I'm on deadline writing or translating, I wish I smoked. La intensidad de Susan Sontag.

Vivimos en tiempos de lluvia. Donde vivo yo, llueve y llueve sin parar. Como si el cielo gris llorara por nosotros, por los inocentes que hemos destrozado y que seguimos destrozando. (📸: Doaa Albaz/Activestills) #Gaza #Rain

The extraordinary poet #AndreaGibson has left us. They are also still with us. Rest in Peace, beautiful soul, now you are everything.

I recommend reading the magazine, friend.

Steven, how wonderful that this exists, especially in Amherst, the home of the Emily Dickinson house. Love hearing you read in Yiddish. ❤️

Thanks for following! I was seduced by your graphics and submitted. 😘

US issues sanctions against Francesca Albanese, UN official investigating abuses in Gaza Trump administration targets special rapporteur for the West Bank and Gaza, in latest action against critics of Israel’s war

“We must stop this #genocide, whose short-term goal is completing the ethnic cleansing of #Palestine, while also profiteering from the killing machine devised to perform it,” Albanese said... “No one is safe until everyone is safe.”

I'm with her.

The devaluation of the art of #humantranslation is not just about threatening an already underpaid profession: It's pretending that the "sagging nutsack" of AI, to use Kristy Lowe's apt image, can do our work and selling fraudulent products to the public. Shame on @globalscribe.bsky.social.

Dismay? How about fury? The devaluation of the art of translation is not just about threatening an already underpaid profession: It is pretending the the sagging nutsack of AI, to use Kristy Lowe's apt image, can do this work, which it cannot, and serving up fraudulent translations to the public.

What sort of plant is that? What kind of soup? Your good cheer in the face of your suffering is admirable.

The sustemic failure is white supremacy and, oh yes, technofeudalism.

Sue, sue, sue, sue, sue. For MILLIONS of dollars. Money is the only language they understand. Sue the government. Sue Walmart.

"Fame is a social phenomenon and society, to be able to function, must separate people into categories and types. But what it absolutely cannot accept and so can only recognize in retrospect is the one of a kind." -- Hannah Arendt on Walter Benjamin's posthumous fame at the Goethe Society, 1968

"Love is wise, hate is foolish." - Bertrand Russell. When you hate others for any* reason, you have allowed someone to make you foolish. Beware of those who preach hate and intolerance. Your moral hygiene depends upon it. #Love

Es un gran privilegio ser invitada de La Feria del Libro de #Madrid. Mientras tanto, en un café cerca del Parque de Retiro mi barista se estalla en gritos porque pasa al final del concurso para ser declarada la mejor barista de #España. La vida es gloriosa. ¡Bravo, Kissaten Place!

Kenyan writer Ngũgĩ wa Thiong'o dies. He was tipped to win the Nobel Prize for Literature many times, leaving fans dismayed each time it was not awarded to him. His family and he were victims of white colonial genocide. He wrote from prison and, indeed, continuously for 60 years. RIP, master.

Saudi Arabian fitness instructor and influencer Manahel al-Otaibi, 30, has been stabbed in the face in prison after being jailed in January for promoting women’s rights on social media.
She was sentenced to 11 years in prison. #Misogyny #FreeManahel
