Segnali. Nell'altopiano del Tassili n'Ajjer, nel deserto algerino, sopravvive una popolazione di alberi unica al mondo: il Cupressus dupreziana. Comunemente noti come "cipressi del Tassili" o "di Duprez", questi monumenti naturali sono piante millenarie, alcune raggiungono i 4000 anni (thread).

Questo significa che la crisi climatica causata dall'uomo è talmente rapida e penetrante, da risultare più estrema di un ambiente già tale.

I feel like a disabled autistic 15 year old child going missing and ending up with ICE/HHS should be far bigger news. Especially considering he’s been located yet NOT returned to his mother. This is kidnapping. Yet the combination of racism & ableism means it gets ignored.

Perfetti! «Non è il momento di accettare un’onorificenza da chi continua a essere gemellato con Tel Aviv». Arriva così il rifiuto della Global Sumud Flotilla all’Ambrogino d’oro, il massimo riconoscimento concesso dal Comune di Milano a chi ha dato lustro alla città. ilmanifesto.it/no-grazie-la...

Nella stampa e nella politica italiana la vita israeliana vale più di quella palestinese. E la disumanizzazione diventa norma www.lanotiziagiornale.it/ostaggi-isra... (il mio articolo per @lanotizia_giornale)

This is something people who are chatbot-curious should be doing by default: ask it about something you *do know about*, not something you *don't know about*.

Rafah crossing between Gaza and Egypt remains closed as Trump threatens Hamas over gang clashes.

Israel has set no date and claim aid would not enter via Rafah as Israeli strikes kill three Palestinians despite truce.

Again I was told over and over again Israel was not blocking aid, that it was the UN and Hamas and saying that Israel was inducing starvation as part of a planned genocide was a slanderous libel. Trump got his headlines, praise from Democrats, so Israel can once again war crime as they like.

Mom can you come pick me up, they invented “technically it’s ephebophilia” for torture

More than 2,500 Palestinians have been killed while seeking aid in recent months.

My super modern regulatory plan is that any entity named for a thing from Tolkien has to publicly explain why Tolkien wouldn’t immediately throw it into Mount Doom

Palestine’s most popular leader, Marwan Barghouti, was beaten unconscious and has his ribs broken by Israeli prison guards and his family fears for his life, his son has said, citing evidence given by former Palestinian detainees released this week as part of the ceasefire deal.

In my experience a few of my mutuals on here and Twitter finally came around to my viewpoint of the Biden administration after they learned this

I remember a few people on here saying the reports were exaggerated

Feel like there's an underlying pattern to this kind of stuff but can't quite figure out what it is.

BREAKING: A Palestinian was killed by Israeli fire east of Gaza’s Khan Younis amid the first phase of the ceasefire, according to sources at Nasser Medical Complex. 🔴 LIVE updates: aje.io/ttcve3

Good thing we have an expert to say this

Hey look, Israel broke the cease-fire, twice, in two different ways, within 24 hours - again.

I give it about twenty minutes before thousands of creeps use this specifically and exclusively to create CSAM, and the feature is quietly rolled back.

Name a protest movement, anywhere or at any time, that has achieved its goals without being annoying and obstructive. People like this enjoy the freedoms our political ancestors gained for them, while attacking the means by which they were achieved.

The @chicago.suntimes.com photographer who risked their personal health and safety to take this photograph is Anthony Vazquez. Please credit photographers and media outlets. In this age of misinformation, a photo with no context could be anything at all.

UNRWA has the reach, network, and trust to deliver lifesaving aid directly to people in need across #Gaza. To meet urgent needs, let UNRWA bring in its aid to Gaza at scale. Let us do our job.

Why are people who look like me called "prisoners" when they get kidnapped, but the people who resemble Europeans are called "hostages" ... and then in the same breath, I'll get accused of being "woke" or "radical" or even "antisemitic" just for bringing this up because the answer is uncomfortable.

Comunque bello questo "cessate il fuoco" travestito da "pace" quando una parte può continuare a tagliare i viveri all'altra. Nel frattempo anche ieri sono morti almeno 50 palestinesi. E l'accusato di genocidio continua a minacciare di soluzione finale i palestinesi di Gaza.

from clips i've seen this is underselling it honestly, he was completely clowned by questions about Bibi and AIPAC

Al Jazeera is doing videos of the Palestinian releases and they're heart wrenching. One man was detained for over a year and was released to find out that Israel had killed his two kids. The youngest was three. Her birthday would've been on Saturday. He'd made a small bracelet for her in prison.

“When crops are burned for fuel, new land can be needed to grow new crops for food or fuel. This can lead to indirect land clearance and deforestation. Staggeringly, biofuels globally therefore today emit 16% more CO₂ emissions than the fossil fuels they replace.”

which begs the question where debate about these policy options take place within political parties? To which the answer increasingly seems to me is... nowhere Ministerial brainwaves are dumped on the world with little debate, just lobbying on the basis of intel & rumours

never forget

"a test"? you mean...a violation?

So far TODAY Israel has: - bombed Gaza City - bombed Khan Younis - shot and killed five Palestinians in Gaza City - refused to open the Rafah border crossing - announced they would once more block aid This is what a "ceasefire" with Israel looks like. This is what it has always looked like.

Israel is still preventing aid from reaching Palestinians in Gaza Israel is still collectively punishing the entire civilian population to pressure Hamas It is still a crime against humanity to withhold aid from civilians www.theguardian.com/world/2025/o...

NEW: Israel informed the UN it will permit only 300 aid trucks into Gaza daily, not the 600 mandated by the ceasefire it just signed.

With more than 1,000 settler attacks in the first eight months, 2025 is on track to become the most violent year yet.

Already today, Israel has: -Conducted a drone strike on Khan Younis in Gaza -Shot & wounded two others near Khan Younis -Killed 5 Palestinians in Gaza City -Fired on & wounded a several others near Jabalia All in violation of the “ceasefire.”

It is interesting that the key takeaway some people on here seem to take is that Biden or Harris wouldn't have let Israel violate a ceasefire but if one takes a look at Lebanon it is pretty abundantly clear that this isn't true. When will the primary lesson finally be that Israel is not trustworthy?

The dispositive factor is the overarching refusal of not just the US but the whole West including the Europeans who trade the most with Israel to hold Israel to account like any other country.

As the @ec.europa.eu and @frontex.bsky.social are rolling out the red carpet for Libyan militias in their EU headquarters, we are publishing the first significant data collection on extreme cases of violence committed by Libyan actors in the Mediterranean since 2016.

The veneration of Books As Objects misses the point entirely. If you're reading a book, turn the corners down, break the spine, spill soup on it. It's your book, go nuts. A pristine, unread book is a tragedy in a way that a beloved, much-read book that looks like the dog's been at it could never be.

'In the encounter, which Murton filmed, an officer told her: “Mentioning freedom of Gaza, Israel, genocide, all of that all come under proscribed groups, which are terror groups that have been dictated by the government.”' www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

Israeli MP for Hadash Ofer Cassif: "[Trump] is not the saviour. He is part and parcel, totally complicit in the genocide that Israel carried out for almost 2 years"

this is true across theaters and contexts: the people who commit heinous deeds don’t disappear after the reporting, or after the conflict, or after a few decades, or even after amnesty. The perpetrators of evil will do nearly everything to avoid accountability or discovery, but: they remain.
