A blog post as enjoyable as it is needed: "The crux of my raging hatred is not that I hate LLMs or the generative AI craze... No, what I hate is the people who have latched onto it, like so many trailing leeches, bloated with blood and wriggling blindly."

‼️🚫 York University refuses to address the affordability crisis caused by rising housing and food prices at the same time that wages on campus have stagnated. More and more, academic staff are living further from campus and being forced to work other jobs to make ends meet.

Tell President Lenton and six members of the York University Senior Administration to support wages, job stability and protections that provide an accessible, high quality education to all: https://t.co/Zst4ve1swz

[Toronto4Palestine @Toronto4P]

TAHSN claiming that Mount Sinai Hospital was a target for protesters is not only factually incorrect, but defamatory in nature. There was no targeting of the hospital and no antisemitism found in any aspect of the protest.

CEOs in the healthcare sector are quick to denounce a peaceful protest, but have yet to make any statements about the complete annihilation of the healthcare system in Gaza. Canadian doctors are risking their lives in Gaza, Canadian citizens are experiencing physical, psychological, and emotional trauma, & families in Canada are experiencing unimaginable blows to their mental health as they fear for their relatives’ lives every day.

We denounce your silence and enabling of anti-Palestinian racism. Passing by a hospital while protesting is not motivated by hate; choosing to frame our community as antisemitic is. The healthcare system in Gaza has been physically destroyed; the Western healthcare system is morally destroyed. #T4P

New Interview: I talked to Seema Jilani, a pediatrician who spent two weeks working at a hospital in Gaza, about her experiences, and what Israel’s refusal to allow sufficient medicine into the territory has meant for Gaza’s children. https://t.co/TnSwwK51qL

NEW: @UNHumanRights NY Office Director @CraigMokhiber resigns in protest over timidity of key parts of #UN system on issues pertaining to Palestinian Human Rights. In letter to @volker_turk he says: "This is a text-book case of genocide. The European, ethno-nationalist, settler colonial project in Palestine has entered its final phase, toward the expedited destruction of the last remnants of indigenous Palestinian life in #Palestine."
