Look he’s a huge star, but apocalypse needs to be performed damn near Shakespearean. Can we get Lawrence Fishburn in the gym?

They interviewed all the three witnesses separately, and they all say the same thing.

They did not ram the car; ICE agents fired at them, and then mocked Mr. Salgado as he lay there dying.

Newsrooms, I am begging you to stop letting Houston Mayor @whitmire_john lie to the public. Stop circulating clips like this one below where he is lying, unless you are also factchecking him, which the Houston Chronicle did very well here:

[مَحمود | Mahmoud akram 𓂆 @MohammedOdehH1]

My campaign before this account owner Bank amrbahlawi I was informed by the Zionists because he helps Gaza. This is my old campaign; I hope you will help me.
A salute to every person who still holds a glimmer of hope in their heart. My name is Mahmoud, and I'm from Gaza. I survived this war after two incredibly difficult years, but this one was completely different. It shattered my life and left deep scars that may never heal. I lost my home, many loved ones, and everything I owned. I returned to find my house completely destroyed. Now, my family and I live in catastrophic humanitarian conditions, without proper shelter, clean water, little food, medicine, or security. I also suffered a leg injury, and my mother sustained injuries to her eye and head as a result of the war. We still need ongoing treatment. Every day, I try to manage the costs of my treatment while also taking on the responsibility of supporting my family and helping them survive. Despite everything, I also try to help other families around me as much as I can, because the suffering in Gaza is shared by everyone. I was studying to pursue my dream of becoming a doctor, helping families in the future, and building my own future, but the war destroyed everything. Nevertheless, I still cling to my dream of completing my studies and rebuilding my life from scratch. This campaign is the only lifeline left for me and my family. Every contribution, no matter how small, means survival, dignity, and hope. I have survived death, but now I am fighting for my life. Please support me. Donate here:

This is a family that I know and needs help to continue surviving in Gaza.

People in Gaza are on the cusp of collapse. All we can do is help them.

How many sandwiches can you help provide today?

Donate here: https://t.co/6l9JFjWInX

Every day, The Sameer Project kitchen is working to keep families fed in conditions where access to food is still extremely limited.

The daily operational cost is around $8,500-$9,000 - covering ingredients, cooking, packaging, and distribution so meals can reach those who are hungry and malnourished.

Each sandwich costs less than $3 to prepare and distribute - like the kofta sandwiches you see here!

A full day at capacity can produce 3,000 sandwiches to be given out to hungry families in need of assistance.

Even a small contribution is a meal for a child, a parent, and elder, someone who didn’t know where their next food would come from.

To donate is to help keep the kitchen running…give to our Food and Water Campaign: https://t.co/6l9JFjWInX

After an obscure defense vendor won a $12 million no-bid contract w/ ICE, I noticed something odd on its website: The firm was using a (still watermarked!) stock photo for the chief of its “development team.”

Things only got more bizarre from there…

The change, ostensibly done to prevent fraud, threatens to shutter many foreign-owned restaurants in Tokyo and across Japan. We wrote about that here:

[ali zaki @zazq12s]

I have suffered greatly.

I am still in the hospital, inside a tent. It is cold here at night.

I am now suffering from severe urinary tract and chest infections.

My body is very weak.

I have not been able to cover the costs of treatment and food.

Six years ago, rammed earth was illegal to build with in Rwanda. Today it’s the primary material of a 69-building university campus built almost entirely by local hands.

96% of all construction materials sourced within Rwanda. Rammed earth, compressed earth blocks, locally quarried stone, terracotta roof tiles made from on-site soil and clay. The buildings were literally harvested from the ground they sit on.

One cooperative formed by workers trained in rammed-earth techniques during construction now carries that expertise to projects across Rwanda. The building didn’t just train students, it trained builders and changed the local construction economy.

Embodied carbon 60% below the global average for institutional buildings. Fully off-grid, powered by a 1.5MW solar array. Projected to become fully climate-positive by 2040, removing more carbon than was produced during its construction.

Earth blocks were actually illegal in Rwanda until 2019. MASS worked with the Government of Rwanda to write new standards and guidelines to legalize their use. They didn’t just build a campus, they changed national building policy.

This is what it looks like when architecture takes its responsibility seriously.
