We’re in a moment now where it would be worth people taking three hours to watch Gandhi, particularly the scene of the salt march. There is value to making the brutality of your opponent so plain as day that no one can argue with it. The clarity of that brought down an empire

You can just do things, together

Want to remark on a sentiment I've heard from the AT dev community ‒ in specific words, even, from @bmann.ca, @knowtheory.net, and @rude1.blacksky.team, which I'll likely botch here: Lead with joy, not fear. I think that belief shows up a lot, and it's really affected me for the better!

still thinking about how insanely trigger-happy some bsky users are with calling people transphobic, racist, etc if that’s always your immediate reaction to someone merely having an opinion you don’t like, ur doing a disservice to the cause and should be embarrassed boy who cried wolf phenomenon

To my point:

using Kirk’s death to cynically shill his own book is maybe the most honest tribute any of them have made to him

an important PSA from @atpota.to for moments such as these

If I have any credibility with you from 20 years of reporting on rightwing & fascist movements, please listen when I beg you not to celebrate Charlie Kirk getting shot. Leave aside morality: this isn’t a match in dry grass, it’s a torch. We do not want what this could ignite & we would not win.

👏 Please. 👏 Read. 👏 Some. 👏 Fuck. 👏 Ing. 👏 Things.

Gaza is officially suffering from a famine. Maybe it’s time we stop giving money to Israel to enable this and simply say no to AIPAC and its cohorts. I know it’s a big ask of politicians - except MTG (why does it have to be her, argh) - who are bought and paid for by AIPAC, but one can hope.

I love this so much and I am absolutely tearing up about it. The gentleness and plainness of this, the way he just lets her be her (and she seems so damn lovely, who wouldn’t?), the generosity. It isn’t going to solve the world’s problems, but this kind of humanity is a hell of a start.

I guess she didn’t hear the IDF soldiers confess to Haaretz that they had shot civilians trying to get food

🚨BREAKING: The last journalists working for AFP in Gaza have said they can no longer work for the news agency. They are out of energy and they are starving to death. I have never seen a statement from a news organisation like it. 🧵

Notable statements from a former Israeli Prime Minister.

Opinion from the FT's Editorial Board: 'The US and European countries that tout Israel as an ally that shares their values have issued barely a word of condemnation. They should be ashamed of their silence, and stop enabling Netanyahu to act with impunity.' www.ft.com/content/f5fd...
