AI & the algorithms shaping our lives are too consequential to be controlled only by a few companies, or optimized only to monetize attention & outrage.

We need build guardrails, accountability & shared standards.

Humanity must steer technology, not the other way around.

[UN Watch @UNWatch]

Before the U.N. Security Council, journalist and women's rights activist @AlinejadMasih calls out the Islamic Regime in Iran's ambassador — and the U.N.'s Antonio Guterres:

“The United Nations has failed to respond with the urgency this moment demands. The Secretary-General himself has not spoken publicly against the massacre unfolding in Iran — only a written statement through his spokesperson.

Silence at this moment sends a signal. Sends a message to the killers of young protesters alongside their family members. I strongly believe that the regime in Iran heard the clear message from the Secretary-General.

I think the members of this body have forgotten the privilege and responsibility of sitting in this room. Secretary-General, I know you hear me. I want to directly talk to you. Why are you afraid of the Islamic Republic?

Millions of innocent and unarmed protesters have been silenced with bullets, mass arrest, prison and a total communications blackout.

I now address the representative of the Islamic Republic directly: You have tried to kill me three times. I have seen my would-be assassin with my own eyes in front of my garden in my home in Brooklyn.

In the United States of America, in the courthouse, I have seen my would-be assassin confessing that they have been hired by the Revolutionary Guards to end my life.

My crime? Simply echoing the voice of innocent people that you killed. Let me be very clear: The Islamic Republic behaves like ISIS and the Islamic Republic must be treated like ISIS.

This is how you can save lives. Thank you so much.”

Venezuela: With immediate effect, Switzerland is freezing any Swiss-based assets linked to Nicolás Maduro. If any assets turn out to be of illicit origin, Switzerland will do its best to ensure that these benefit the Venezuelan population. https://t.co/VdnJczonua

The UAE is answering the UN's urgent 2026 appeal with more than half a billion dollars, to push aid into places like Gaza and Sudan. I spoke with the UAE's Minister of State for International Cooperation Reem Al Hashimy and @UNReliefChief Tom Fletcher about how that money will impact those in need despite the tough conditions facing aid groups.

[UN Human Rights @UNHumanRights]

New @WMO projections show an 86% chance the world will exceed 1.5°C of warming within five years, and even the possibility of reaching 2°C before 2030.

2025 is likely to be among the three hottest years ever recorded.

Rising heat, droughts and floods put all our human rights at risk:  from health, water and food to safety, housing and a healthy environment.

That means we must take action to protect those most affected, hold decision-makers and polluters more accountable and push for real, lasting solutions - like cutting emissions, halting deforestation, and investing in public transport, agroecology, and sustainable, liveable communities.

The ceasefire enables NRC to scale up our operations across Gaza.
We call on the parties to the hostilities to continue to honour their commitments to ensure that we can reach the population of Gaza.
⬇️

We need full humanitarian access.

NRC calls on donors for urgent, flexible funding, to meet the vast needs on the ground. Without it, the humanitarian response will fall short.

Right now, @NRC_Norway has 230 truckloads of aid preparing to enter Gaza, which will support more than 390,000 Palestinians with critical shelter, hygiene, and education supplies.

We’re expanding water-trucking in Gaza, to 280,000 people, and scaling up our site management, solid waste management, protection from violence, and legal aid services.

Without sustained access and immediate funding, the humanitarian response cannot keep pace with the scale of the crisis.
Every delay costs lives.

Introverts hate stress. If you lower their vibe, you're out. They don't care who you are. They're empaths. They feel everything. They can read people like a book. They're kind and caring and forgiving. But once they've had it, trust me, they'll drop you like you never existed.

“If we shall not end the occupation, we shall not have security,” warns Ami Ayalon, former head of Shin Bet, “and if we shall not end this occupation, we shall not have democracy.”

In an extraordinarily candid interview, Israel’s former internal security chief condemns what he calls Prime Minister Netanyahu’s “toxic leadership,” and argues that as the war continues, “we are losing our identity as people, as Jews, and as human beings.”

I just cancelled my Adobe licence after many years as a customer.

The new terms give Adobe "worldwide royalty-free licence to reproduce, display, distribute" or do whatever they want with any content I produce using their software.

This is beyond insane. No creator in their right mind can accept this .

You pay a huge monthly subscription and they want to own your content and your entire business as well.

Going to have to learn some new tools.

Dear EU citizens, as voting starts in the 🇪🇺 #EUelections 🇪🇺 please do not get caught up in growing anti-refugee, anti-migrants sentiments — not in your communities, not in your election ballots.

We cannot let the power of the people become power used against the people.
