POV: Maybe if I wear a hijab they won’t remember that I helped Israel bomb Palestinian children into pieces which their parents then had to pick up and collect in plastic bags

Activists from a Hindutva organization brought a pig into Poonam Cluster Society to protest goats kept there for Eid al-Adha. Note: these activists are primarily targeting and harassing the Muslim families living in the society.
PCOS is being renamed to PMOS. (Polyendocrine metabolic ovarian syndrome)
The change comes from experts that say the old name was misleading, stating that it inaccurately suggested ovarian cysts as a defining feature.
I don't know that words will ever be able to adequately express how insane it feels to sit at a desk and respond to trivial emails while the President of the United States threatens to destroy an entire civilization.
Like, that little voice, saying 'are you being dumb not to us it?' Well, I don't know how to, so there's that, & so far publishers are holding out, so there's that too thank god, but....O brave new world, I want no part of you.

There is nothing unusually damning about the Epstein files. The abuse and trafficking of women is part and parcel of imperial domination. It is the impulse to undress Iranian women and the fetishization of submissiveness and poverty in countries that the US has devastated. It is the half million Russian women sold into sexual slavery after the defeat of the Soviet Union. It is the tens of thousands of "comfort women" forced to serve US occupation troops across its overseas bases. It is the Zionist murderers photographing themselves in the underwear of their victims. This is imperialism at work, creating immiseration, wasting human lives, and commodifying the body. It is not a partisan issue, nor is it a failure of justice or accountability. It is a feature of a reactionary and brutish political system that needs to be overcome in its totality.
Hey so I support Hamas bc they're Palestinians who have spent their lives being subjected to occupation, dispossession, displacement, apartheid, & genocide. All occupied ppl have a right to resist by any means necessary.
Protests will & should continue until that ends.

I'm old enough to remember the picture of Dick Cheney with this feet up on his desk as he watched the twin towers burn on a TV screen. And I'm old enough to remember when he conspired with other now dead or decrepit neocons to murder or destroy the lives of millions of Iraqis and dismantle, utterly, that ancient civilization so they could loot the country's oil, gold, artifacts, and other treasures, while simultaneously robbing the American public purse of hundreds of billions in 'reconstruction' schemes.
now he's dead. I wonder if he thought all that harm was worth it in his final days. Like Kissinger before him, the world rejoices at his passing. Kushner will be dead someday too. So will Witkoff and Rubio and Biden and Blinken and Clinton (both of them)—and the world will rejoice once more at the passing of evil from the earth.
I wonder if they know that, or if they care.
I wonder if they understand how profoundly empty they are; what a waste of life it is to live such shallow lives, where the pursuit of wealth is all there is, and there's never enough of it to fill the expansive hole inside them.
In memory of a million murdered Iraqi children, I say good riddance to this butcher.
