Tasneem's bed in the medical facility in Gaza.

A message below from my dear friend Tasneem in Gaza.

The civilians in Gaza are displaced and without adequate aid or medical services. They rely on our donations to survive.

Please give to Tasneem so she can take care of herself and her children. And to others. ❤️🙏

If you don't want to keep having this fight for the rest of your life, and your children's lives, until the planet boils and forces the issue, you need to understand that the entire system MUST fundamentally change.

Anyway, the reason Stancil and liberals like him are being lifted up by the establishment is because they do not represent a threat to power - as the wheels fall off this ramshackle fascist movement you're going to see a lot of pressure to ensure that Nothing Fundamentally Changes.

I'm not sure how much this spreading would even help but I think it's important to stay educated about these things... I'm genuinely scared about my own safety and I'm not even sure how they will go about imposing this law. here's a more detailed look at what they're trying to do

hi guys I know I haven't been very active lately, and I don't talk about where I'm from often, but the government made some really scary announcements today so I thought I'd share to let everyone know what's happening. here are some posts from twt for context

A man in a suit stands speaking, with text criticizing Mayor Mamdani for not honoring his commitment to allocate 0.5% of the city expense budget to NYC public libraries in his preliminary budget. Visit NYC PLAN.ORG for more information

The bottom line is that NYC Public Libraries need increased and most importantly STABLE funding annually. Mayor Mamdani promised both and this preliminary budget is a BROKEN PROMISE. There’s time for him to rectify this. NYC library patrons expect that he will.

OK, let’s discuss what’s happened with the proposed NYC public libraries budget for FY 27. Mayor Mamdani @mayor.nyc.gov released his preliminary budget yesterday. This kicks off the city budget process. [Long thread]

0/45 needed for groceries, cat litter, and cat food. please help if you are able, it's ok if you can't. sorry to be needing to ask, i know you're sick of seeing it, i am too.

an under-discussed trope in the cyberpunk genre was the idea that once one achieves ludicrous levels of wealth, they cease to be “human” in any meaningful sense.

Fascinated by the growing trend of Retvrn to Tradition conservatism skipping over aesthetic things like statues and diving headfirst into almost comical levels of Greek and Roman homoeroticism over the male body.

Yes, misogyny plays a large part, I just did not expect it to be so twinkish.

one reset I'd personally appreciate: behind the insistence that we must offer the electorate a little bigotry is the idea that commoners are more bigoted than the richer and more educated, who can be appealed to with high minded policy. but then you Ctrl+F "phrenology" in the Epstein files

I regularly see people wondering how it's possible that there are so many musicians and writers and film makers and artists from a tiny nation like Iceland.

And the answer is really simple: State funding for art education and artists. I literally get a salary from the government to write books.

Mayor Mamdani Breaks His Promise to NYC Public Libraries The Struggle Against Defunding Libraries Continues...

I hope New Yorkers will challenge Mamdani about this. Too often, people feel they need to be absolutely for or against a politician — ignoring their missteps or throwing them out with the bathwater. You can like and/or believe in someone and still challenge them to deliver on their promises.

Poulsbo woman's home overrun by over 100 raccoons after 3 decades of feeding them A woman living near Poulsbo's home was recently invaded by over 100 raccoons last week.

Raccoons are good, raccoons are adorable, but raccoons are wild animals. It's not a good idea to feed them and it's especially not a good idea to encourage them to interact with humans.

Trail stations are one thing, but feeding them *where you live?* Bad idea.

105/150 ty all very much, the insurance is covered. anything else will be going to cat food gas and human food .

We’ve come full circle

Record fine or not, why would the company not just see this as a cost of doing business?

there is an extremely simple answer to the "abandon trans rights" folks and it is "no" and also "fuck you"

So am I getting this right? The guy who vibecoded an insecure, expensive, worse version of IF TTT with delusions of grandeur ("OpenClaw") is now claiming that he'll solve the problem of "prompt injections" at OpenAI?

My man, you are you out of your depth, it's not even funny.

The internet too, actially. In concept, not what was done to it.
