There are only two days left before the Israeli government resumes its genocidal onslaught on the people of Gaza – with US funding and weapons.

We are taking over the Manhattan Bridge in the biggest civil disobedience in NYC since the Iraq war to demand: Permanent ceasefire NOW

Growing up consuming western media and Bollywood films, I’ve never seen positive representation of Islamic society in mainstream media. Enter Assassin’s Creed Mirage. This hits so hard, and I’m not even Muslim.

Why do I feel like The Great Experiment in Queen Charlotte is code for diversity and inclusion?

I am SO ready for this

Playing The Witcher 3 Remastered on Death March difficulty level has shown me this is the only right way to play the game. One wolf can kill you, alchemy potions are a must and even a few coins are worth slaying a monster for. Now this is what I call walking the Path.

Somewhere in the middle of HBO's The Handmaid's Tale. The kid that plays Hannah deserves all of the Oscars now and forever.

Not ready for NaNo yet; maybe next year. But what I did manage is submitting a short story for a contest amidst a move, job upheaval, travel preparations and wedding planning. I've learned to prioritize creativity no matter what - and it's paying off already!

Dan komt het gezelligheidssausje dat dit artikel mooi beschrijft opeens om de hoek kijken omdat men the elephant in the room niet wil benoemen; machtsverhoudingen, ongeschreven rangordes, vanzelfsprekende verbroedering tussen en reclame voor mensen die al voldoen aan de norm. 2/2

Tekenende parallel: bij een Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) office luidt het credo veelal; wij bestaan omdat dit bedrijf nog onvoldoende duurzaam gedrag vertoont. Het mooiste zou zijn als we kunnen ophouden met bestaan. Duidelijk! Maar waar is deze concrete taal bij D&I? 1/

@GRRMspeaking By Doug Wheatley again, yes? 😍

(Yes I know Cleopatra was Macedonian. Based on SCIENCE they still could have given Lizzie a tan.)

[Soumya (OU as in cOUch potato) - ஸௌம்யா @soumwise]

But casting people without melanine as Lawrence of Arabia, Prince of Persia, Cleopatra, Egyptian gods and others from sunny countries is Nobel prize-worthy, of course.

Daily Wire host says it is unscientific to cast a Black person as a mermaid: “From a scientific perspective, it doesn't make a lot of sense to have someone with darker skin who lives deep in the ocean”

I have no desire whatsoever to ever play as Basim again, but Baghdad seems a killer location for a new Assassin's Creed game. I'm torn.
