Israeli forces have killed over 20,000 children & injured 44,000 more since 7 Oct. 2023, Srinivasan Muralidhar, chair of the @UN Commission of Inquiry on the Occupied Palestinian Territory & Israel, told reporters today. #HRC62

Israeli authorities and security forces deliberately targeted Palestinian children, resulting in genocide, crimes against humanity and war crimes in Gaza, and war crimes in the occupied West Bank, an independent UN inquiry said https://t.co/61poVhRzmR

Americans realizing they spent $75 billion fighting Iran, then another $300 billion rebuilding Iran, just to reopen the Strait of Hormuz that was already open before the war started

[Middle East Monitor @MiddleEastMnt]

There is a peculiar genius among certain Muslim intellectuals in the West: they can detect Islamophobia everywhere except where naming it might cost them something. In Paris, they are forensic. In Delhi, incandescent. In Gaza, thunderous. In Washington, fluent in the grammar of empire. But when Muslim political agency is crushed in Pakistan, when Imran Khan is imprisoned and millions of his supporters are treated as civic contamination, the vocabulary collapses. The seminar goes quiet.

turns out, reading voraciously, moving your body, loving people without keeping score, protecting your solitude, chasing nothing but your own growth, and occasionally staying out too late with people who make you laugh until it hurts is not a bad way to build a life.

Everybody talks about how nothing is affordable anymore, but nobody talks about how cheaply everything is made now. Cars, appliances, clothes, and so much else are designed not to last. Part of the affordability crisis is that we’re constantly forced to buy the same things over and over again.

[Rushi @rushicrypto]

I genuinely think a lot of millennials are reaching the same conclusion at the same time.

We grew up watching technology make life better every year. Cell phones. iPods. Smartphones. An app for everything. It felt like the future was arriving right in front of us, and we couldn’t wait for what came next.

Then somewhere along the way, it changed.

Everything became a subscription. Social media became algorithms. Every day feels like another once-in-a-lifetime event. The things that were supposed to save us time somehow ended up demanding more of our attention than ever.

We were sold convenience.

What we got was a world that feels faster, louder, more expensive, and somehow less human.

And that’s why so many people I know dream about a completely different life now. Not more technology. Not more optimization.

Just a quiet job, a flip phone, a small town, and a place where life feels real again.

Life was better when there was a ‘computer room.’ Where you had to physically enter the room to get on the internet and then log off and leave that room and the internet stayed behind. The minute we were able to take it with us in our pockets that’s when society collapsed fully

[Dave @GamewithDave]

They removed CD/DVD drives from devices.
They made physical media harder to buy and use.
They removed expandable storage from phones.
They pushed us into streaming subscriptions.
They made always-online normal.
They made unlimited internet necessary.
Then slowly raised the price of everything.

Ownership quietly became renting.

Loadshedding is back:
1. Not a shortage
2. An economic failure
3. Installed capacity: ~45,000 MW
4. Peak demand: ~25,000–28,000 MW
5. Power hasn’t failed
6. Power Division has

Everything the Iranians do is so beautifully thought out. Naming its delegation after the 168 school girls killed in Minab, all members of the delegation dressed in black to signal mourning. What a dignified people, forever honouring its children ❤️‍🩹

[Nav @Navtreaks]

This was absolute peak to watch

From entering the atmosphere to traveling 25000 miles per hour down to parachutes coming out.

We rarely ever get to see stuff like this man, SHOUTOUT NASA ❤️
