Fun story from my mom just now.

She lives alone with her dog Ash. And as one does when just living with a pet, she has a lot of made-up nonsense she just says to him, including a lot of made-up vaguely German sounding words.

And the German isn't completely random. Some of it is hold-over actual German from when she (temporarily) lived in Switzerland 32 years ago.

She told me, "Most days I'll say to Ash, 'Was ist heute? (What is today?) Heute ist (Today is)'" followed by the day of the week. She also said she was having the damnedest time remembering the German word for 'Thursday.'

Like she could get through "Heute ist Sonntag," "Heute ist Montag," "Heute ist Dienstag"... and blank out at Thursday. Until finally she decided, screw it, googling it! (Thursday is Donnerstag, btw.)

"Except," she told me, "I googled it, and it went Sonntag, Montag, Dienstag, Mittwoch, and I went 'Mittwoch? What the hell is Mittwoch?'"

Mittwoch is in fact Wednesday. But that's not the day of the week my mom was tripping on. She knew (thought she knew) Wednesday. So my mom was left going "Okay then what the hell have I been saying?" and she said, "Chrissy I've been saying Sonntag, Montag, Dienstag, Geburtstag. I've been saying Heute ist Geburstag to Ash every Wednesday."

Geburtstag is in fact the German word for Birthday.

Anyway happy every single Wednesday is my mom's birthday Wednesday.

My father's illness has worsened again and he is suffering more severely than before with the interruption of the medication he is supposed to take. His health is deteriorating in addition to the fact that he is suffering from cancer. My father has several stents in his main heart arteries. My father must leave Gaza for treatment immediately. His condition is very difficult. I don't know what to do in this situation. There is no medicine, no hospitals, and no open crossings for him to travel.

the worse climate disaster gets, the more you’ll see closet eugenicists start to advocate for letting people die. you need to be prepared to combat the ideology wherever you see it, because it’s only going to get worse and worse Read everything having to do with climate disaster critically. If the central argument underlying what’s being said is that the death of disabled and/or racialized people is inevitable, natural, or desirable– that’s a fascist.

they might be appear to be a garden variety republican or liberal or even a leftist at first, but know that if that argument is being made, their underlying ideology is one of supremacism, and given additional climate stress, they will become more blatant about it.

I'm choosing to believe this is real because it's funny and hurts no one
