[حسام شبات @HossamShabat]

This is Hossam’s team, and we are sharing his final message :

“If you’re reading this, it means I have been killed—most likely targeted—by the Israeli occupation forces. When this all began, I was only 21 years old—a college student with dreams like anyone else. For past 18 months, I have dedicated every moment of my life to my people. I documented the horrors in northern Gaza minute by minute, determined to show the world the truth they tried to bury. I slept on pavements, in schools, in tents—anywhere I could. Each day was a battle for survival. I endured hunger for months, yet I never left my people’s side.

By God, I fulfilled my duty as a journalist. I risked everything to report the truth, and now, I am finally at rest—something I haven’t known in the past 18 months . I did all this because I believe in the Palestinian cause. I believe this land is ours, and it has been the highest honor of my life to die defending it and serving its people.

I ask you now: do not stop speaking about Gaza. Do not let the world look away. Keep fighting, keep telling our stories—until Palestine is free.”

— For the last time, Hossam Shabat, from northern Gaza.

Been thinking about this a lot lately, especially since noticing my toothbrush has a Bluetooth symbol. Why would I ever connect my toothbrush to my phone

[Robert Sterling @RobertMSterling]

I don’t want to connect my coffee machine to the wifi network. I don’t want to share the file with OneDrive. I don’t want to download an app to check my car’s fluid levels. I don’t want to scan a QR code to view the restaurant menu. I don’t want to let Google know my location before showing me the search results. I don’t want to include a Teams link on the calendar invite. I don’t want to pay 50 different monthly subscription fees for all my software. I don’t want to upgrade to TurboTax platinum plus audit protection. I don’t want to install the Webex plugin to join the meeting. I don’t want to share my car’s braking data with the actuaries at State Farm. I don’t want to text with your AI chatbot. I don’t want to download the Instagram app to look at your picture. I don’t want to type in my email address to view the content on your company’s website. I don’t want text messages with promo codes. I don’t want to leave your company a five-star Google review in exchange for the chance to win a $20 Starbucks gift card. I don’t want to join your exclusive community in the metaverse. I don’t want AI to help me write my comments on LinkedIn. I don’t even want to be on LinkedIn in the first place.

I just want to pay for a product one time (and only one time), know that it’s going to work flawlessly, press 0 to speak to an operator if I need help, and otherwise be left alone and treated with some small measure of human dignity, if that’s not too much to ask anymore.

i’m not saying nothing but it does seem like people are very mad about the healthcare situation in this country.

[Haile ⚡ @makeitHaile]

I will fix this by starting a 1000 piece puzzle and completing it in 36 hours

I also can't wait for trump to be the first president to run for a 3rd term... maybe we can give him a new title? Führer maybe?

[Haile ⚡ @makeitHaile]

[hasanabi @hasanthehun]

there is no way to read this other than biden being spiteful and throwing the election. we know hes an immoral genocidaire, he also seemingly hates kamala enough to make sure she loses. if this timeline was overnight, they could force israel to commit to a ceasefire.

“Back in my day, Republicans hated Russia.”

[hasanabi @hasanthehun]

whenever someone talks to me abt polls, i always point to the reality that american voters believe things fundamentally at odds with one another. this is why party messaging on issues matter quite a bit. if you concede to the right wing framing on immigration, you lose.
