A ceasefire is the immediate demand of the people in Gaza and the bare minimum. If you’re refusing to heed their calls because it’s a “liberal ask,” take a hard look at your breathing family. Look out your window: there is no white phosphorus. Consider the weight of 4651 killed.

[Jewish Voice for Peace @jvplive]

HAPPENING NOW: Hundreds of American Jews are holding a sit-in at Congress — and we won’t leave until Congress calls for a ceasefire in Gaza. As thousands of U.S. Jews protest outside, over 350 are inside, including two dozen rabbis, holding prayerful resistance.

“Collective punishment of two million civilians, nearly half of them children, is a moral catastrophe to which current U.S. policy critically contributes.” I was morally compelled to sign this US legal scholars’ letter. https://t.co/jCUHC87be9

could you do a side by side of how much that is compared to the money you’re giving israel to cause the humanitarian crisis?

Our Santa Rosalia prescribed fire at Soquel Demonstration State Forest lower helipad went well! Overnight, an engine patrolled the burn, today we have 2 engines mopping-up (putting out any hot spots). This was our 2nd burn in the SDSF. @MBUAPCD @NWSBayArea @sccounty #CaWx

A UN official just told me civilians in Gaza are reduced to drinking sea water because clean water has run out. Body bags are running out, fuel for hospital generators powering ventilators will run out in hours. Food supply low. The bombing is intensifying. There aren't words.

16 year old #ArmitaGarawand has been battling for her life in a coma since October 3rd, due to a physical assault by the forced-hijab officers in the Tehran Metro. She is being held at "Fajr" Air Force Hospital under strict surveillance.

She was physically attacked authorities in the Shohada station at Tehran Metro for an alleged non-compliance with the compulsory hijab.

She sustained severe injuries and was transported to the hospital.

Her family is under pressure from authorities.

With strict security, there are currently no visits allowed, not even for family. All these measures imply that the regime fears another #MahsaAmini uprising, whose picture in the hospital is what sparked the now year-long mass protests taking place across Iran.

Much like with Mahsa, the regime denies the mistreatment and assault.

Well then let us into the hospital, hmm?

New paper:
The living piñon🌲in this photo (left) has tolerated drought treatment for 13 years (!).

While a reasonable question is "why would you do this to that poor tree?"

We asked: "how is this tree still alive?" Old reserves may be one answer.

Here we have many of the same features as the Titanic submarine story – peril on the sea, human lives at stake, a race against time. Will we be getting the same wall-to-wall coverage of the search and rescue?

35 acres of grass, 2 nights of burning from 7-12. Early summer 2023 (July 5th and 6th) Orleans California. Way better outcomes than trying to chase spotting wildfires in late summer winds as it quickly blows into town… (hint, hint)

I'm running for mayor because so much more is possible for this city we all love. Our first fundraising deadline is around the corner and, with a wide open race, EVERYTHING counts.

Pitch in at https://t.co/1m5IKYJ9AX today and share with your friends! #MoreIsPossible🫶🏿

Thread: The Supreme Court is hearing a big case tomorrow. It should unite everyone: left, right & center. And the national press has almost totally ignored it.

It centers on an elderly woman who fell behind on her taxes. So the county took her home, sold it, and kept the profit.

NEW: Meet the Sacramento dildo saleswoman behind the "Terrorgram Collective," a neo-Nazi network that advocates mass shootings & calls shooters "saints."

Her propaganda helped inspired a shooting at a gay bar. Now she's been unmasked. Meet Dallas Humber. https://t.co/NeKjGBnYNW

"The very unanimity of support for tree planting may reduce the impetus for detailed audits or critical analysis of what is actually achieved at each project."

Thorough @YaleE360 story on failures of afforestation. Better to let "nature do its thing."
