@AdneSadeh You’re welcome! I’m so glad it’s with someone who appreciates it!

Reading the manuscript of this MAGNIFICENT book, which should be out with @UExeterPress in 2024. #fairies, #ghosts #demons and #JeremyHarte

[Jonathan Friedman 📚 @jonfreadom]

And then they came for sociology... Even the casual observer can see that the range of academic topics govt officials are trying to undermine or suppress just keeps getting larger and larger https://t.co/7uxxOwHc1n

Is there no limit to this Mayor’s desire to punish working class New Yorkers? How much more does he think people can take?

[Dr. Mia Brett @QueenMab87]

I promise antisemitism is still a really big deal without you claiming Jews are the *only* group to experience a certain type of bigotry or oppression

[Asad🗽🍎 @AsadFromNYC]

Like, if you want “context,” there are plenty of anti-imperialist and anti-colonial writers, thinkers, and activists that the Arab and Muslim-majority worlds produce(d) who didn’t go on to found a death cult that still wreaks havoc on the Muslim ummah today. They exist!

[Asad🗽🍎 @AsadFromNYC]

Bin Laden wasn’t a tragic antihero who grew up under the boot of occupation. He was the son of billionaire developers from a powerful clan and grew up globetrotting only to found a murderous organization that destroyed Muslim lives from Morocco to Indonesia. That’s the “context.”

[Paul Emerich France, #MakeTeachingSustainable @SustainTeaching]

We can't simply expect teachers to keep working harder and harder without systemic changes. Teachers have a cap on how hard they can work--and after a certain point, we need to make some changes to teaching becomes more sustainable.

In response to Mayor Eric Adams’s budget cuts, libraries are cutting Sunday service 📚

@timjacobwise Bullshit. My Jewish parents are in their 70s and never used it. Never heard it from my grandparents, either. Just because your people were racists doesn’t mean mine were/are.

[European Jewish Congress @eurojewcong]

It is horrible to see that the Jewish Community Centre and theater in Ljubljana, Slovenia has been defaced with antisemitic graffiti.

The building also hosts the local synagogue and the Museum of the History of the Holocaust in Slovenia.

We stand with the 🇸🇮 Jewish community.

@_vampire_christ @sassycrass Right?! That song was famous, that’s why they put it in the movie! And “Lust for Life” was also famous!

[Veronica Schanoes @schanoes]

@SingingDogz @WithIsrael2 @QueenMab87 Fascists hate academia. Too much critical thinking.

[Fiqah is @sassycrass.bsky.social @sassycrass]

According to the author - a probably young, exceptionally clueless, DEFINITELY White guy - these songs weren't culturally impactful until they were featured in these hit films. I'm genuinely offended. https://t.co/8AXwsxb1oM

[No Lie with Brian Tyler Cohen @NoLieWithBTC]

A city in Tennessee has banned being gay in public.

Murfreesboro, Tennessee passed an ordinance claiming that “acts of” being “homosexual” is considered “sexual conduct” and may no longer be seen in public. The law is also now being used to ban books.

Not bombing the fuck out of a bunch of civilians in hospitals.

[Conor Friedersdorf @conor64]

Question for *ceasefire now* advocates: if both parties agreed to a ceasefire, then Hamas violated the ceasefire, what would be the right thing to happen next?

[Arielle Angel @ArielleLAngel]

“Bereaved families used to [be like] holy people in Israel,” said @OrlyNoy, who saw people yell “traitor” & spit at hostage families during a protest. “It’s another incredible crossing of a line—the total disintegration of everything [Israelis] thought the state stood for.”

[Hend Amry @LibyaLiberty]

is this a trick question? - I mean is it based on the notion that there might be a circumstance under which bombing your own kid is a desired outcome?

[Ben Crump @AttorneyCrump]

The jury is deliberating in the federal trial of ex-Louisville Police Officer Brett Hankison! If convicted, he could face up to life in prison for violating Breonna Taylor’s civil rights when he opened fire during the raid that claimed her life. Now we await the verdict.

One the few mummy portraits that bears an inscription. The translation reads: Eirene, daughter of Silvanos, her mother is Senpnoutis. May her soul live forever before Osiris-Sokar, the great god, the Lord of Abydos.
