it's gonna be freezing here! it was freezing here last night too!

Y'all, the hospital where I had my surgery is running trials to see if GLP-1 medications can help people suffering from long COVID. It's open to any person with documented long COVID who lives in the US. Please pass it on!

Please help Mohamad's family, including his 2 little daughters, survive Israel's continuing genocidal starvation & destruction of Gaza. They've been homeless & with nothing, & urgently need funds for food, healthcare, & shelter as winter approaches:

Fellow Calcuttan writer/editor Archita Mittra is in desperate need of financial help. She recently lost her father, her home was damaged in the recent rains, & her mother's in hospital. They don't have insurance, & she's a freelancer. I can vouch for her. Please share widely & donate:

✳️ NEW: Gaza Health Ministry has submitted a 60-day, $45 million plan to coordinate aid during the truce, rehabilitate health facilities, reopen crossings, and bring in 200 medical trucks weekly to rescue what remains of Gaza’s collapsing health system.

Go fuck yourself. 🔻🇵🇸

it's sort of fascinating how Nixon revisionism is basically fairly common with right "thinkers"

AIs cannot suffer. However, the people behind AIs most certainly can, and all have addresses.

Burning a US flag gets u a year but painting a lovely mural of fine art remains legal

I'm so fucking tired of this shit, honestly. She's been utterly relentless, she's literally STALKING me and my friends, she's posted personal information and even a fucking picture from outside my friend's house -- simply because said friend helped me move out over TWO YEARS AGO. I'm at my wits' end

#indiasky what legal options do I have against someone who has been persistently stalking and harassing me and mine for years now? It's getting to the point where they're leaking potentially dangerous private information for all to see. Additional wrinkle: it's a close family member doing this

I've seen some vocally anti-AI people recently make an anti-AI post and be surprised there are still pro-AI people following them, and I can explain this; most pro-AI people think they are somehow the exception. the way THEY are using it, SURELY you would take no issue! well, we do. so fuck off.

Grief is sneaky like a gut punch. Then its back to reality. Not recommended yet its life.

“As more facts come to light.” It was clear this was a genocide from the first month on. As for Iraq, it was obvious to most people that Iraq did not have WMDs and none of the people responsible faced any justice.

The former Attorney General of Israel, Michael Benyair is now calling Israel's actions in Gaza genocide. "To eternal shame. Jews, who suffered a genocide 80 years ago, are committing genocide in Gaza. Shame, rage, and sorrow"

gofund.me/df180a3a 5 months ago, little Elena fell severely ill from food poisoning. Hospitals are packed; supplies scarce. She’s still suffering. Now, famine grips Gaza. Medicine? Unaffordable or gone. They’re fighting for her, but they can’t do it alone. Please help.

He's been charged, and a report has been sent to the PF. They could turn it into a test case. It would have to be an indictable offence, though, to have a jury trial. Police Scotland issue terror charge for man 'wearing pro-Palestine Action T-shirt' www.thenational.scot/news/2530942...

Hello #indiasky! I’m currently exploring roles in Data Analysis, Client Servicing, Technical/Content Writing, or IT (mid-level, remote or Chennai-based). If you know of openings or referrals, I’d really appreciate it! Resume: plum-marlene-4.tiiny.site LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/shreniraj

So apparently Grok 4 is so badly neutered that it runs to find out what Elon thinks of the topic at hand and blindly parrots what it finds.

Attributed to Diodorus Siculus, a Greek historian from 2,000 years ago. I found the quote in The Storm Before the Storm by Mike Duncan. It seems that nothing changes… time for some Reckless Action!

If anyone wants to apologize for calling Gazans fake via donation here’s the links for the three people featured (and verified) in this article: Saeed: www.gofundme.com/f/help-adam-... Sahar: www.gofundme.com/f/donate-to-... Hany: chuffed.org/project/save...

This article features a lot of familiar faces ❤️ gizmodo.com/the-rise-of-...

In the age of AI, it's difficult to trust your eyes anymore. Gizmodo has a great piece on Gazan campaigns and a Palestinian supporter that strangely .. boycotts all of them! Worth your time, not only for this topic that I personally care about, but for every piece of photo video or text you get! 👇

Clarification: Not a "Palestinian supporter". I meant to write "a supporter to the Palestinian cause". The identity of this person "Arson" is not provided in the article. My English fail me occasionally :)

No one is forcing you to donate to any fundraiser anywhere in the world. And there are some scams out there, as I note. But GoFundMe verifies every campaign for people in Gaza using ID, receipts, and bank info before money is released. Do whatever you want, but putting "Gazans" in quotes is gross.

Odai was shot in the foot by an Israeli quadcopter drone. Amateur sleuths on the internet were fixated on her sandals, it was her son’s foot in that photo that should’ve been drawing the attention. Painkillers and medicines aren’t being allowed into Gaza. Sahar hopes she can get him to Egypt.

Everyone's rightly dunking on the scumbags who circulated these rumours of Palestinians being fake, but let's not forget to give credit to Bluesky itself, which continues to delete Palestinian accounts as they're created within the hour, on the clock, every day, or slap them with spam labels.

Basic food prices are skyrocket here in Gaza. Can’t even bring a loaf of bread for my three kids because I am jobless and I do not have money,” Hany said. The Israeli gov has total control of what goes in and out of Gaza and recently had a two-month total blockade of food into the territory.

It really is not called Darwinism

My pinned post has a ton of information about accounts from Gaza on here ❤️

For the past year, I've been working with dozens of my most admired humans on the planet to put some new thoughts to think with out in the world. Storytellers, may I present the uncensorable, decentralized Stop Surveillance Tech Copaganda Toolkit: stopcopaganda.compost.digital

I grew up in Texas, & though it wasn't as bad when I was a small child, air conditioning was absolutely *essential* to not die in our long, hot summers. Anti-AC folk make no sense to me. You use your heater when you might wear a blanket but are mad when I run my AC after getting nude isn't enough?

Just $57 American dollars gets my friend and brother Mohamed to a nice round number. We could probably even do that today. www.gofundme.com/f/help-moham...

Dumpsters attract raccoons, dead zebras attract hyenas, and huge stores of data will inevitably attract Elon Musk and violence-minded feds. And that's why I think data minimization is really important, as I explain in this newsletter article: little-flying-robots.ghost.io/a-brief-ode-...

I’m sharing a Palestinian account every day and today is Shahed. Shahed is only 16 years old she has lost her home and school. She is raising for her whole family including her brother Mahmoud and his small children. It’s such a huge responsibility for a teenager 💔

"This is not a conflict. This is not a war. It's not an escalation of violence. It is intentional ethnic cleansing, which is entailing genocide, war crimes and crimes against humanity" Francesca Albanese at the UN HUman Rights Council this morning. 🎯

He says here that "obviously it's antisemitic" to chant "death to the IDF". This is insane. The IDF is a military force which, according to a consensus of a genocide scholars, is committing genocide. But its crimes are armed by our politicians and whitewashed by our media.
