The Displacement Journey of Nibal Al-Hisi is our attempt to show what surviving in Gaza for two years looked like. projects.btselem.org/nibal/ Millions of Gazans and Nibal specifically depend on us to survive. Make her voice heard and extend your hand in support. (this is my collab w. B'Tselem)

Weekend read: my friend @mushon.bsky.social's NYT Op-Ed left me crying. Crises that might feel abstract and far away from the US have real people and human suffering at their core. "What we need now is for humanity to overcome the cruelties of its own imagination". Well worth your time.

"To save preemies like my son and those in Dr. Salem’s NICU takes much more than a village; it takes a society committed to protecting its weakest members, and it takes a functioning public health system. And that requires a free society, free from war and occupation, capable of protecting its own."

The @nytopinion.nytimes.com published an essay I wrote. A video from a #NICU in #Gaza brought me back to another night, 14 yrs ago, beside an incubator in Tel Aviv—where I became a father. It’s about bounded solidarity, fragile lives, and what might still be saved if we dare to imagine otherwise.

בזמן שבו ממשלת ההפקרה בוזזת את הקופה הציבורית, פוטרת את בניה משירות כשמבנינו ובשמנו היא דורשת לבצע פשעים של טיהור אתני והשמדה. בחרנו אני וחברי לתנועה הישראלית/פלסטינית ⁦‪ארץ לכולם—שתי מדינות, מולדת אחת‬⁩ לפעול למען עתיד בטוח, עצמאי ומשגשג במולדת הזאת שלנו שבין הנהר לים.

Being Palestinian in Israel cannot be funny. The police wouldn’t allow it. www.972mag.com/nidal-badarn... By Noam Shuster-Eliassi for @972mag.bsky.social

ANY #BERLIN-BASED #ANTI-FASCIST OUT THERE? I’m super-thrilled to lead a political imagination workshop at Publix, Berlin, hosted by the multitalented team at @superrrnetwork.bsky.social Lab. form.typeform.com/to/lB2cFI35

Through a year of darkenss, "Future Screenshots" is a new #futures methodology for #Political_Imagination I developed to find hope and inform action. It revolves around capturing #screenshots from futures and mapping them to the Futures Cone.

"There is a world where there's no war in the Middle East. Where Palestinians and Israeli civilians go about their lives. Where maybe they can look confidently towards the future and even envisage more bridges between them. Where our region envisions its true and full potential…

An article I've been **RAGE CLICKING** for @uxcollective.bsky.social Clicking repeatedly and getting no feedback is now the sign of our times. How can we design digital and social systems that avoid dead-end rage and enable new and unexpected affordances for action? uxdesign.cc/rage-clicks-...

In my new article for @tnr.bsky.social I explore Israel's blindspots in Gaza through the biblical myth of Samson and suggest what America, Israel's closest ally, should do rather than push us further over the edge… newrepublic.com/article/1779...

How can those claiming to "stand with Israel" stand by and even actively support Netanyahu’s atrocious government? Mushon Zer-Aviv writes: newrepublic.com/article/1779...

This is a beautifully written and sensitive piece about the Israel-Hamas war and I encourage you to read it. Your Empathy is Killing Us medium.com/@mushon/your...

My friend Mushon wrote a piece on people’s inability to see the humanity and empathize with both Palestinians and Israelis https://medium.com/@mushon/your-empathy-is-killing-us-1a50a4fc0488

Your Empathy is Killing Us Why binary partisanship in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is hurting both sides, and what to do about it. It took a long time for the words to find me. I hope they find you too. medium.com/@mushon/your...

"The moment you accept that it is not possible to fight for both sides at the same time, you lost your soul." #ZIZEK in a rare nuanced message for those who side with the gunmen over the civilians in #Gaza and #Israel

Please wake me up from this nightmare.

Selfishness is obviously the emotional mechanism for thinking you can keep the world ordered. You can’t. We actually do care about each other, and your numbers don’t add up!

Computers can never learn if they can never be surprised

Who's having a worse night, Trump's lawyers or Elon's?

“This ability to catalyze an effective separation of concerns into micro (influenceable by the typical human) and macro (not influenceable by the typical human) is … the primary practical affordance of narrative technologies.” #must_read by @vgr.bsky.social

Yes, the irony of posting this here is not lost on me… “No exit — every feed is a traffic jam” by @Mushon Zer-Aviv https://uxdesign.cc/no-exit-every-feed-is-a-traffic-jam-a5b091e8d3c2
