@alaafromgaza92 @GBNEWS @PatrickChristys I read Alaa's thoughts about Shylock, guided by her poet teacher (killed in Gaza), when she posted them. My thought was how incredible it is for people whose lives have been marked most impactfully by oppression to engage with such an empathetic lesson. Read it yourself.

Apparently, @GBNEWS chose not to read this post, yet still insisted on accusing me of antisemitism.

This is not just careless. It is a deliberate misrepresentation of my words and opinions.

Read it carefully, @PatrickChristys. Then ask yourself whether you are reporting the truth, or constructing a narrative that suits you.

Thomas just discovered a downside of his new hobby, feeding crows. We had to abort our walk and go home to wash the poop out of his beard, hat, coat and scarf. He pointed out that our life is going to be at least 25% cleaning up poop pretty soon, so... 😅

I joined a pottery studio here in Seattle and started throwing a series of weird vases. Have to say, I'm missing my Douglas Park fam! This studio only allows 1 type of stoneware clay, and it's 'blush'. 😖 🤞 the glazes are good.

Thomas is working on his Mandarin. He's learning comparatives. He just confidently informed me 'I am not as fat as you'. 🙄 😅

Well! Apparently we're going to get ~500€ from Air France! Last spring, a connecting flight was cancelled. Air France put us up in a hotel for the night and booked us on another flight. But, because of EU consumer... https://t.co/7jO9u5LtlB

Our waiter asked if we knew the guys who just finished at the next table; apparently Tom has the same credit card as all four of them. Then, he asked if it's a tech credit card. 😅 🤦 #Seattle

I used to be the kind of person who had orange flower water, bought from Moroccan grandmas during the blossom season. I guess that time of my life has passed. 😔😅

My last pottery made in the Douglas Park Community studio: a series of mugs playing with texture. I'll miss this studio! Tom and I are moving again, across the border to Seattle. 😘🍁😢

Chinese cultural experience: ordering on my phone in a sit-down restaurant. This sauerkraut fish stew place is a Chinese chain with a location in Vancouver. The menu is accessed via a QR code on the table. — at 太二酸菜魚 https://t.co/7JzFlFof9i

There are some famous world governments where 'truth' is whatever the leadership says it is. N. Korea, the former Soviet Eastern Bloc... I never thought that I would see that happen in America. 😢 https://t.co/ls6aNt84uU

So, is there a name for the new generation of hippies? Something describes the data-driven scientific bent. Less about intuitively communing with nature, more about trying to live sustainably - stuff like paying attention... https://t.co/gLQ8mrL2mp
