@floregonian.com you ought to listen in! Jon is awesome.

Athleticide: "the obliteration of athletics through killing, disabling, arrest, or detention of athletes, coaches, staff, officials, and administrators and the destruction of athletic infrastructure and history—has been part of the US-NATO-funded Israeli state’s genocide in Gaza since Oct. 2023."

Hey @mark-carney.bsky.social I thought you were Mr. “Elbows Up,” or is that just so everyone can get a better grip on your arse?

UN Special Rapporteur on Palestine, Francesca Albanese, says the UK has helped create conditions that enabled the genocide in Gaza (Middle East Eye)

The IDF is 80% sniper or killing tourism, but like this story here...we won't talk about it until 30 years from now

Some eggs, milk, and yogurt have finally made it into the city after such a long shortage. It’s a small thing, but it means so much after all this deprivation. Prices are extremely high, though. Please, your donations matter now more than ever help us keep going 🙏

Israel has destroyed more than 1,500 buildings in one month of "ceasefire." Gardens, homes, entire neighborhoods turned to dust www.bbc.com/news/article...

As.someone who used to work in advocacy communications, I know this kind of data from companies is part of a communications and lobbying strategy. Nothing necessarily wrong with that, but it's not neutral data created for research, to build knowledge, or to inform the American people.

One repost gives us life ❤️

"Where will we go?" Israel’s Supreme Court "sided instead with Ateret Cohanim, a settler organization that has been working for decades to take over Palestinian homes in Silwan." "700 residents [..] in ongoing legal battle." #Israel #Palestine #Apartheid #Policing #Housing #Courts #EthnicCleansing

The effects of the genocide are profound; it is truly another war. You find yourself alone, surrounded by destruction, with no home and no future. We are still reeling from the shock. Be with us, support us, and don't forget us, you are truly the oxygen we breathe. chuffed.org/project/1389...

This was the point of declaring a (fake) ceasefire: so the world would think it was over and look away. Not over.

I’m running out of time, and all I’m asking for is a chance to live, learn, and begin again. All I want is the chance to leave Gaza safely, to continue my education, and to use language to heal, connect, and inspire others. Every donation brings me one step closer to rebuilding my life and future.

This is the problem: because extremists have been treated as if they’re an anomaly, NOT the end of a spectrum of what *most Israelis* are okay to go along with, they’ve gained power. Moderate Jews (if they exist) need to get a lot fucking louder if they don’t want to be associated with this.

It’s pretty simple. Israel uses white phosphorus as part of its ecocide against Lebanon, to render as much of the South as possible unliveable for human beings. They dynamite entire villages, cause forest fires with drone strikes, uproot countless olive and other trees, and kill the soil.

"[T]he tent feels cold even on summer nights." "So what about now, when winter is coming and we are only protected by a thin fabric that doesn't keep the water out?" "[O]nly 145 trucks carrying commercial goods and aid have entered Gaza daily, just 24%." #Gaza #Palestine #Israel #Housing #Genocide

An Israeli company is causing homelessness in the U.S. If you still don't get it, you can't be helped

thanks for your work on this. this may be of interest - www.fundingpalestinianfreedom.org/about-us — a project to organize funders and get them resources to divest in zionist genocide and into palestinian futures, hopefully

Over 400 Mi'kmaq served in WWI, WWII, and the Korean War? Yet First Nations weren't recognized as Canadians until 1956 and couldn’t vote until 1960. Thus, we were allowed to fight and die for a country that didn't recognize us as citizens. Least we forget. Thankful for all who served ❤️❤️❤️

We need a world where shame is more powerful than money.

i think people should be embarrassed of working for weapons manufacturers
