The cheerios (and other food donations) continue to pour in to the Labor Temple as part of the #duluthcheeriochallenge. These donations are a response to billionaire Kathy Cargill's mocking of Duluth having for having "peed in their own cheerios".
A Twitch influencer with 2.4 million followers did a reaction video of our Helsinki documentary. Most communications in the homeless sector swim around in a gigantic echo chamber. If the strategy is to reach the general public, you have to engage with new networks to connect with their audiences. This is a screenshot of his YouTube video replay of his Twitch stream. I LOVE this thumbnail!

@ChedderMilan @fr0gan You know you can unfollow people who you don’t want to see, right? Then you can focus more of your time on yourself and becoming a better person! Good luck out there!
When I say my therapist was a Zionist when I went to her back in 2019 I mean she literally brought up that I was Lebanese unprompted and confronted me on it saying she was Israeli. She asked if I had a problem with that, if I felt like Israel had the right to exist, started asking more and more if I was frustrated with Islam and have considered taking off my hijab. I asked her if she was alright with me being Lebanese and she got really aggressive, accusing me of flipping it on her and refused to answer.
So when I say Zionist I don't mean "she was Jewish" I mean she was a racist Israeli who could not help herself but to confront me about my ethnicity in what was supposed to be a therapy session.
@fr0gan I’m scared to bring up Palestine in my therapy sessions, but seeing everything that’s going on definitely impacts my mental health (how could it not). I’ve just been saying everything happening in the world or the news.
Nancy Pelosi crumbles when asked: "But there are levers that Biden hasn't used. There are levers that previous presidents have used when Israel has, in their view, crossed a line"
Pelosi: "For example?"
"Eisenhower threatened sanctions..Reagan held up delivery of fighter jets...George Bush Senior blocked loan guarantees...these levers are there, aren't they?"
"There are some, but the president has said something about the settlements"
Saying and blocking weapons supplies, for instance, are different, aren't they?
"It's a path. It's path"
Shocking footage shows unimaginable destruction in📍#Gaza city, including our health centre.
+70% of civilian infrastructure- including homes, hospitals & schools- have been destroyed or severely damaged.
84% of health facilities have been affected by attacks.
Nowhere is safe.
The IDF raided the home of a family that requested accommodation to evacuate their child with cerebral palsy—grenading the kitchen, schrapnel piercing the kid’s eye and brain; they executed the parents; then berated the 2 other kids about tunnels, before sending them out on foot.
🇵🇸🇮🇱 This was the state of a refugee camp in Rafah after The Super Bowl Massacre last night.
Imagine being moved from here, there and everywhere to be a place you were told was a safe zone.
Only to be woken up at 2am by the sound of missiles landing on you.
Pure evil.
Noor, my daughter, was the only one who held my heart in this world. Her story was different from other girls.
Noor Al-Fara, 13 years old.
She had dreams for the future and was planning to achieve things beyond her age. She lived in her own world, with thoughts and interests that were unique. Whenever someone met her, whether a woman or a man, they would sit with her, chat, and say, "This girl is extraordinary. Mashallah, she seems like a university student, not a child who hasn't even turned 14." Indeed, when they said this, we realized that we are not just numbers. We have souls and bodies, and we have dreams that we want to fulfill in the future. It was as if she sensed that her time in this world was limited, but her dreams were grand, so she raced against time to achieve as much as she could.
As soon as she entered the house, she would start talking as if she had been away from me for a week. She would share many details about herself, her friends, teachers, and school news.
She was an icon at school; she felt like the center of attention among the students. She participated in all academic and non-academic activities, and she was a dynamo at home, on the street, and at school with her friends.
On November 7th, 2023, at 6 o'clock in the morning, the Israeli occupation aircraft bombed the entire square in front of the Farhana School in Khan Younis, and Noor was martyred. Oh God, she left a great void. My life turned into an empty desert after her, despite the crowdedness around us.
We need another $5k to finish this film. That's cheap considering the production value. Our hope is to use this film as an advocacy tool in the Johnson vs. Grants Pass Supreme Court Case, which could happen as soon as April. Without your support, this film will not happen.
