112 members of the Hassaniya & Abu Sharia families (related to one another) were given one of the biggest funerals in Palestinian history today. They were all killed in a single Israeli airstrike in 2023, with their bodies having just been recovered from under the rubble.
44 children, 38 women, and 7 people with disabilities. 112 members of a family, gone in a single airstrike backed, supported and funded by the U.S. govt under the Biden-Harris administration with no resistance from their party.
A man recovered the bodies of 112 members of his family from beneath the rubble in Gaza, two years after they were killed in a single massacre.
Today, they were finally laid to rest.
The largest funeral procession in the world—112 martyrs from one family alone.
Rewriting is the writing. It's like going back to your vomits. Nobody wants to go back to their mess. Writing is a lesson on how to sit with your mess over and over. Cleanliness is worth an effort for the reader's enjoyment.
i love watching lectures on youtube from fields i never study formally. i love regularly listening to people who have spent decades thinking about something i have only just encountered on a random afternoon. the world is far larger than the small corner of it i happen to inhabit
It’s apparently okay when a woman is paraded naked and molested on camera in Manipur. You don’t hunt those men. You don’t make statements.

I saw a post on Reddit that said, “When you walk through a museum, you’re not just looking at art. You’re moving through centuries of people trying to explain love, grief, power, beauty, and belonging.” I don’t think I’ve ever seen a museum described so beautifully.
I guess nothing "qualifies" in this country is a national tragedy anymore.
40+ coal miners in Quetta are either dead or stuck under the mine, yet no news, nobody is talking about them, or how can we prevent these tragedies from happening every time again and again.
I watched this video of PM Modi ask in his trademark patronising-cringe style
"how can our daughters speak such language?"
Sir, they are not 'your' daughters.
People are not your 'children'.
You are not the father of this nation.
Your job is governance and you are failing.
“The movement will not stop until the jailed protesters are released.”
AISA President Neha Bora says she will be in Patna tomorrow to meet those jailed protestors, and calls on everyone to join her.
This is what true leadership looks like.
I've never seen the level of sheer abusive language against any Indian politician that was on display at Jantar Mantar against Modi.
And not only words, but in graphic images, cartoons.
Make of it politically what you will.
I saw a post on Reddit that said that “The underlying purpose of AI is to allow wealth to access skill while removing from the skilled the ability to access wealth.” And I don’t think I’ve ever seen AI described so incisively.
