Beloved disability rights activist Alice Wong co-founded Crips for eSims for Gaza, which raised millions of dollars to support internet and phone connectivity for Palestinians in Gaza during the genocide.

In doing so, she helped save countless lives.

RIP 💔

@Wimblits @ThatchEffendi Analogy only works if reactionary uncles are more right than wrong

@yorksranter @bagatsen @afoe_tw Sorry for the late reply. I'm not here very often anymore!

[david @davidweman]

@bagatsen @yorksranter @afoe_tw Appreciate your efforts Alex. I guess the archives are so vast that there's no easy way to make the site more easily manageable?

Israeli settlers set fire to St. George Greek Orthodox Monastery and the Christian cemetery in the Christian village of Taybeh, West Bank.

This is the place Christ sought refuge in John 11:54 before His passion and death called Ephraim.

I’m no expert on cows but they are nosy as hell. If ur doin something near a cow they’re gonna come look. If there’s a structure near them,they gotta wander in and see what’s goin on in there. I saw a yard sale set up in a barn and all the cows were inside lookin at the stuff.

@spacej_me Exhibit A!

If you're in a crowd of 1,000 people who are mostly "peacefully protesting" and two people throw water bottles at a line of riot police and then the cops start hitting everyone with batons, congrats, you're now at a violent protest. This whole distinction is dumb

Most people don’t understand how *new* most cancer treatments are. The treatment that cured my lymphoma was developed when I was a teenager. The treatments that will cure our children’s cancers are being put on hold right now.

@Merman_Melville Bots reminding me of this post. Could have written something more empathetic instead. Hope you're living a blissful and calm less online life, you deserve it

[david @davidweman]

@Merman_Melville Maybe it's better to log off and improve your life irl than to go to a new platform, but I sure as fuck won't so I would appreciate it if you went to Bluesky and bless us with your posts there

"Thank god" we all say as the world's two largest economies embargo one another.

Despite public signaling to the contrary, Iranian officials have now quietly leaked to a number of outlets that indirect talks this Saturday could lead to direct talks--the first such talks since 2015.

A fairly astonishing turnaround from Khamenei's speech just two months ago

I totally missed NPR's response to getting called out for describing Palestinian children as "males who are minors." But after failing to adequately explain why he couldn't call 15-19y/o Palestinians "children and teenagers," Greg Myre goes on to equate our insistence that Palestinian children should be described as such with Zionists demanding all Palestinians be called terrorists.

@nberlat @newlinesmag i didn't notice who wrote this lol. well, it's a good article

[david @davidweman]

Why does open authoritarianism feel like a relief to some people? @nberlat and Ilana Gershon explore how undemocratic workplaces sowed the seeds of Trumpism, for @newlinesmag. https://t.co/T16KwTdYsH

Israel’s evacuation order for Rafah today leaves over a million people with nowhere to go. No transport, no flour, no safe shelter. Bombs fall without warning, even graves lack dignity. The last agricultural lands are being erased. This is not war, it’s the systematic destruction of life itself.

In the middle of the massive protests in Tel Aviv tonight, a growing silent wall of people holding photos of Palestinian children killed in Gaza.

This story broke seven months ago, but to read about how widespread it was is pretty astonishing. Less than two weeks until Passover.

I hate seeing what would in a normal balanced centrist world be quite a seismic event in terms of civil liberties pass by without any press coverage.

Trump's executive order tonight has illegally cancelled union contracts for 67% of the federal workforce & 75% of unionized federal employees — roughly 700,000 union workers

This may be the single biggest attack on the labor movement in American history
