Thankfully, the village was evacuated already, but one person is missing and everyone else’s homes are destroyed. Make no mistake: this is a climate disaster.

🚨NEW | Israel Approves Plan to ‘Capture’ and Occupy All of Gaza and Control Humanitarian Aid Israel has approved a sweeping plan to seize all of Gaza, to occupy it indefinitely, and displace its people south—advancing what rights groups warn is a military-engineered campaign of ethnic cleansing. 🧵

Et vilkår for at noe skal være et folkemord er et forsett om å begå folkemord. Det kan være vanskelig å bevise. Vanligvis sier man jo ikke noe sånt rett ut. Men, og dette glatter folk som Hellestveit for ofte rett over i min mening: Israel sier det rett ut.

An Apothecary of poems. As so many of us reach for some salve for the fears, anxieties, sense of loss, and terrors of the moment - from social media, techno-solutions, substances.. does poetry offer a true alternative? A nonsolution solution that enables us to remain with ambiguity? poetryclinic.org

This could be a big deal for the hundreds of climate lawsuits underway around the world. @jsmankin.bsky.social and @ccallahan45.bsky.social link emissions from specific fossil fuel companies to trillions of dollars in damages. “I think this is going to be the future of climate litigation." 🧪🔌💡

Read @aviddetention.bsky.social's review of @mfbosworth.bsky.social's Supply Chain Justice: "[I]t is people who are the 'product' — people who arrive or stay in the UK and are subject to detention, people who are sorted, managed, moved, and monetised." www.aviddetention.org.uk/article/refl...

One of the greatest conceits of #CriminalJustice is that the #police (and other policing agencies) serve and protect the public. They don't, and never have. They serve the State by policing the public. What you're seeing in the US right now, is that policing stripped of its conceit. #Criminology

If you're interested in Racialised #Zemiology, and want to see the harms of the US's neo-eugenicist movement that now dominates the Trump administration, then this is a good example. As the #racist logics of US policy begins to bite we will see more of these downstream harms emerging #Criminology

Wow. The International Criminal Court has opened proceedings against Hungary for failing to comply with the Court's request to arrest Benjamin Netanyahu and surrender him to the Court, and invited Hungary to provide submissions by 23 May 2025.

The EU placed a strategic bet on Serbian lithium to fuel its shift to electric vehicles. But it's resulted in dirty politics and an environmental backlash so severe it is poisoning the Balkan nation’s relations with Brussels.

Following the Abrego Garcia deportation, Trump wants to send US citizens to El Salvador: “I’d like to go a step further. . . I don’t know what the laws are . . . but we also have homegrown criminals . . . I’d like to include them in the group of people, to get them out of the country.” (24:27)
