BREAKING: A federal judge ordered Trump to get full SNAP benefits out by tomorrow. The judge made clear Trump broke the law by *choosing* to force kids to go hungry for "political reasons." "Children are immediately at risk of going hungry. This should never happen in America."

Hello..👋 My name is Mahmoud. I live in Gaza. 😔 I live under the rubble of our house. 💔 And our suffering continues. 😔 gofund.me/a1fffdbd

I want to order from my favourite pizza place… but it would be financially unwise. I must resist.

"Jurors found Sean Dunn not guilty of one misdemeanor assault charge on Thursday in federal court in D.C." I do not regret to inform you that we are going to win. www.nbcwashington.com/news/local/d...

The truly maddening thing is that, unlike when I was a young man in science and the materials and engineering just weren’t there yet, the future is *right there.* The problem is *solved*. What’s holding us back is not just greed, but this bizarre nostalgia, an obsession with petro- masculinity.

@soniasulaiman.bsky.social, got mine! What a fantastic project. I’m one story in and already know this is only the first read.

Imagine being a parent so brain-poisoned by online lunatics that you go to *multiple courts* demanding the right to show up at children's sporting events to humiliate and demean kids you find to be insufficiently female.

Nasser just sent me this photo of two of his kids who got to go to a party 🥳 in Gaza today and told me his whole life is a dedicated to them ❤️

🚨URGENT🚨 My family and I have been displaced in Gaza since the ceasefire. We are still homeless & have lost everything. Winter is coming & we have no tent⛺️ We desperately need your donations to buy a tent to protect us from the rain. Pls Help to save my family😭⬇️⬇️ 📍 paypal.me/nursehammam

I’m so pretty excited about this. Thankfully I do have a tote my dog can’t get into. When I’m back in my feet financially I’ll have to see about getting some of this ribbon for the project.

There’s so many Palestinian accounts that are just gone. I’ve tried to follow up on several folks who were engaging in cultural fields and I keep getting screens saying their accounts don’t exist. :(

I don’t know how many times I’ve watched this video. I don’t know how we’ve gotten to the point where men in full balaclavas can abduct daycare teachers while they’re watching children. But I do know that this isn’t sustainable. Abolish ICE. There is no way to reform this.

All she wants is revenge.

Bookseller friend is NB and absolutely losing their gourd. It's amazing how much of a difference there is between attentive, respectful portrayal of your group and an author actually being one of you & writing about that instead of (good, respectful portraits of) side characters

I should mention this again: Worldbuilders Market worldbuildersmarket.com/search?q=mar... has Murderbot and Sanctuary Moon merchandise where the proceeds go to charity. At this point as far as I know there is no other licensed official merchandise.

" #YouTube surreptitiously deleted all these videos in early October... The accounts belonged to three prominent Palestinian human rights groups: Al-Haq, Al Mezan Center for Human Rights, and the Palestinian Centre for Human Rights." theintercept.com/2025/11/04/y... #Google #Israel #News #Palestine

I spent over a year of my life writing this collaborative craft book with eleven other (fantastic! talented! good-looking!) writers. "Sometimes a story emerges fully formed in your mind, and sometimes it’s an onion, requiring several ‘peels’ to get to the real, eye-watering heart of the matter."

And so it continues ...

We talk about lot about saving children, but children have parents. They have families. You can help children by helping their parents.

Before I attended the writing workshop this summer, I was busy with a project to adapt a vintage Palestinian sewing pattern. I wanted to try to invoke so of my ancestry in the design. I just came across some Anishinaabe-made ribbon at a sewing shop…

In case you missed this yesterday!! For understandable reasons

Haymarket Books are amazing, 80% off is such a bargain, please go browse

It took me way too long to figure it out but I think I’ve solved the mystery of why my twitch streams didn’t have mic audio. I don’t know exactly how it happened but there’s a setting to mute the mic— it is not distant from the UI at all. You have to go into the stream settings to find it.

Please could you spread this?

“You’ve been repeating several times that Russia should pay for the reconstruction of Ukraine. Do you believe that Israel should pay for the reconstruction of Gaza since they have destroyed almost all its civilian infrastructure?”

The genteel way western press is covering the news that Israeli settlers are in film torturing and gouging out the eyes of lambs and killed six of them just because they belonged to a Palestinian farmer is something to witness. They really can use so many words to say nothing.

Before I got to the second last word here, I was nodding along to this critique of the state of civic engagement. 🫠

Been catching up on Daredevil: Born Again, Thunderbolts*, and Captain America: Brave New World And it's interesting how much the recent MCU stuff wants to harness the symbols/signifiers of "political drama" without any real political content whatsoever.

There are Congressional hearings, big talk about votes and compromises, the White House, the President, big city mayoral elections, etc. etc. But nobody belongs to a political party and nobody seems to stand for a particular platform outside of stuff that affects superheroes directly.

thank you for the outpouring of support! those of us laid off from Teen Vogue yesterday are now sharing our GoFundMe to help us cover our emergency expenses now that we've lost our incomes, as we get back on our feet.

My dog just borked in her sleep. Just a small “bork?”

Sonia is such an invaluable presence here on Bluesky. I don't tend to read horror but her folkloric knowledge is deep and she shares small stories regularly. Someone to follow and support.

Reach out to Ahmad Nabil from The Fiction Council. He's collecting Palestinian folklore, which includes a lot of horror/paranormal stories. www.linkedin.com/in/ahmad-nab...

A very timely ask. I’m extending the submission period for The Apocryphal, the sequel to the award winning Thyme Travellers: An Anthology of Palestinian Speculative Fiction. I’ll have the details soon. But if you’re Palestinian and want to write horror, get in touch with me.

I'm looking for Palestinian horror writing, and have gotten some good recommendations, but there aren't a lot and now I'm curious about that. If there is a necessary distance from lived horror to being able to write horror,
