Another outing of my typewriter-styled maps for day 5 (analog) of the #30DayMapChallenge - this time mapping the elevation of Italy! 🇮🇹 Code: github.com/nrennie/30Da... Blog: nrennie.rbind.io/blog/creatin... #RStats #DataViz #RSpatial

As part of the ceasefire, Gaza has been split in half by the so-called ‘yellow line,’ where Israel’s military controls just over 50% of the Strip. Palestinians are being killed for trying to cross or even get close to the line. mondoweiss.net/2025/11/isra... #Palestine #Israel

On oublie pas Ramadan. Il a commencé à faire du pain pour le quartier, mais sa boulangerie va devoir fermer pour manque de fuel… Aidez et rellayez si vous pouvez !

Or in the case of COVID, the NYT told the horrible truth early on but, along with the rest of the media, downshifted to the more soothing “it’s mild/like a cold” narrative for the return to “normal” in 2021/22. From June 2020:

Today is a good day to remember, and to say, that the #MeToo movement was right, and was righteous, and has been vindicated over and over again. There was no overreach. There was no excess. There was no they-went-too-far. So much work remains to be done.

More than a dozen Israeli soldiers spoke to ITV for their new documentary Breaking Ranks: Inside Israel’s War, about how their army’s two-year campaign in Gaza involved shooting unarmed Palestinians en masse, using teenagers as human shields, and flattening entire neighborhoods without pretext of...

“The government wants to drill for oil in the Amazon & build a railway. We will all face problems if this continues. I told Lula not to exploit oil in the Amazon & that we don’t want the Ferrogrão. If necessary, I’ll scold [him]. He must show respect,” Raoni stated. amazonwatch.org/news/2025/11...

Day 11 - Minimal Rhode Island Elevation Joy Plot Map I made a Joy Plot map years ago in ArcPro, but I am using QGIS these days, so I figured this would be a great time to learn a new workflow. I will be posting the workflow on Day 23 - Process. #30DayMapChallenge

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.

When a kilo of flour cost over $60, we still managed to buy it just to stay alive, thanks to u Now a 25 kg sack costs $30 (or even less) and we still can’t afford it. We’re completely broke literally bankrupt After the famine we survived, nothing is left forgotten Pp if u wanna help tiny.cc/hbcuzz

Myanmar journalists in exile are "unable to escape the grim realities of the junta's brutality because their days are spent gathering news of the loss, grief, and despair back home" but downplay their trauma, writes our fellow from Kayin State. kite-tales.org/en/article/w...

📣 Une enquête du Monde détaille les pressions qui ont poussé le Collège de France à suspendre un colloque scientifique sur la Palestine. ⚠️ Une décision sans précédent depuis le Second Empire, révélatrice de l’érosion de nos libertés fondamentales! 🧵Bref thread sur cette enquête ⬇️

An actually essential piece of journalism from the times: "We interviewed 40 of the men who were imprisoned: They described being beaten, sexually assaulted by guards and driven to the brink of suicide." 1/2

Managed to get Watson's anti-black racism into my undergrad lectures on genome variation this week while he was still alive. Along with Richard Lynn's anti-Irish racism. Unfortunately all these lists could have been much longer than I made them.

Do I know any Indigenous folks who make maps? Got a request for a paid design/cartography job and it'd be rad if I could connect you with them.

Part of the reason I think there isn’t as much pressure around stopping ChatGPT re: suicide/psychosis as compared to stuff like Panera Lemonade is because people are inclined to blame it on mental illness versus the tech, a kind of victim-blaming mentality that fits neatly into just world fallacy

Come on, Jasper 🐧 is so cute! I'm sure they'll stay discreet in a corner of your classroom ☺️

Cette nuit près de Dunkerque, une dizaine de policiers sont intervenus en intimidant et menaçant l’équipe bénévole d’Utopia 56, les empêchant de distribuer du thé et de la nourriture à un groupe de personnes en détresse. Aucun répit sur le littoral nord.

L'homme le plus riche de la planète a causé la mort de 600 000 personnes, dont 400 000 enfants. Cette information, qui ne retiendra pas l'attention des grands médias, sort le jour où les actionnaires de Tesla approuvent un plan de rémunération de mille milliards de dollars au profit d'Elon Musk.
