I feel like it’d be easier to stomach if they were just straight up about how sadistic they are but they make it even more sadistic by denying what we are witnessing with our own eyes. The mental gymnastics, the completely erasure and discrediting of the validity of their experience. Blaming people for their own massacre is actually insane..and they just lie without blinking.

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

Cutting off all communication to a population of 2.2 million is unacceptable. Journalists, medical professionals, humanitarian efforts, and innocents are all endangered.

I do not know how such an act can be defended. The United States has historically denounced this practice.

[Lauren Jauregui @LaurenJauregui]

How the actual fuck can we all just watch this? How the actual fuck does anyone have the audacity to justify this?

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

Two million people. Half children. Starved. Bombed. Cut from communication.

Have those facilitating this thought much about the future this leaves us? No.

Some may dismiss a ceasefire as naïve or worse. Yet who has a plan for what follows this destruction? What do we call that?

speak up please speak up. palestinians are cut off from any kind of communication. no internet access, international calls are not working. there's no space for your neutrality right now. people are being wiped out literally, don't be a part of it.

Midnights is a collage of intensity, highs and lows and ebbs and flows. Life can be dark, starry, cloudy, terrifying, electrifying, hot, cold, romantic or lonely. Just like Midnights. Which is out now

[Erin Tañada @erintanada]

I visited SLeila a number of times. I know how difficult it is to get to where SLeila is held. It’s like a maze and there are security checkpoints and gates inside. I’m just curious how a detention prisoner was able to reach SLeila’s area without being stopped. #FreeLeilaNow

a trike driver begged me to pay 60 pesos for a ride that has cost me 30 pesos for years now. he kept saying gas prices were too high. it’s such a frustrating thing bc for me +30 pesos isn’t nothing, but for him if he doesn’t charge extra he won’t be able to make ends meet,

[Ateneo de Manila University @ateneodemanilau]

For those who would also like to extend financial assistance to S/G Jeneven Bandiala's loved ones, the University has opened a scan-to-pay donation channel.For more details: https://t.co/QfkO5nZLEG

First State of the Nation Address of #PresidentMarcos: A Thread

1. Marcos opens his speech with the economic pursuits of his administration. A lot of data and facts and statistical figures. Delivered in English, peppered with jargon, this speech is very technocratic in register.

[The GUIDON @TheGUIDON]

JUST IN: The Ateneo Law School Class of 2022 is accepting financial donations for the family of Jeneven Bandiala. Bandiala is the Ateneo security guard who was fatally shot while protecting the community during yesterday’s shooting on University grounds.

See the details here:

[Reyna Valmores Salinas @ReynaValmores]

The Ateneo shooter is Chao Tiao Yumol. Prior to today, he is known to viciously attack Leni supporters online. He claims his target, Angat Buhay partner Rose Furigay, is a “drug lord”.

There will be more lives taken under the culture of impunity propagated by Marcos and Duterte.

[Ash Presto 💜 @sosyolohija]

There was a politically motivated killing by someone who's repeatedly expressed hatred online. In a polarized society with a culture of impunity, online hate can lead to severe consequences. Violence should have no place in educational spaces and elsewhere. May justice be served.

[Natashya Gutierrez @natashya_g]

A shooting in broad daylight on the day of graduation - a day meant to be for celebration. For someone to feel they could get away with this…this is the culture of violence and impunity institutionalised and normalised in the Philippines over the years. Everything has an impact.

[Jayeel Cornelio @jayeel_cornelio]

Isang paalala. Mabubuting tao ang mga security guards ng Ateneo. Ang kawalan ng isa ay kawalan ng buong Ateneo. Mariing pagkundena sa karahasang ito.
