Another thing is that when this aggression started, we were so worried about winter and how displaced people in tents will survive it. Earlier this week the temperature in Gaza hit 38 degrees (100 Fahrenheit) and we are now wondering how will displaced people survive the heat in those tents.

i know i'm just watching bad shows but it's also kinda hard to find good ones but like. everything is bad these days. every emotional beat is both overexplained and just not that nuanced to begin with. people can't act anymore. costuming is so lifeless that it makes me feel like swallowing glass (honestly i was on set where the director was causing massive costume continuity errors bc from one day to the next she decided that character shouldn't have a handbag anymore and while that makes me feel violent maybe at least it'd be interesting) like. something something i feel bad for kids these days but bro i feel bad for ME these days

This bloodbath has gone on for far too long. At the start of this aggression, the school year had barely just started. The academic year ends in just a month. Everyone, from first graders to university seniors, have lost an entire year at least. I say at least considering even if there is a ceasefire today, Israel had destroyed literally all universities in Gaza and damaged over 400 schools. Lest we forget also Israel's deliberate targeting of university professors and academics.

You absolutely cannot mistake the intent behind all of this.

Among those arrested in Atlanta today were Noelle McAfee, Chair of the Philosophy Department at Emory University. You can hear her ask the PhD student taking the video:

“Can you call the Philosophy Department office and tell them I’ve been arrested?...I’m Noelle McAfee, I’m Chair of the Philosophy Department”

This child, Salah, survived an air strike on his home and was badly burned. This video of him being fed by his mother is from a while back, taken by Hatem Rawagh. Hatem recently found out that this boy survived another air strike on his home, but this time his mother didn't. Remember why we're fighting. Remember who we're fighting for.

There’s evidence that Palestinians in the mass graves (including babies, children, people in medical scrubs) were buried alive.

The map of Palestine is depicted using the names of the cities and villages that existed before 1948. The names are written in a derivative of the Diwani Jali Islamic calligraphy script Villages and cities are drawn on the map according to their geographic location. However, the villages written on the map represent only a small fraction of the myriad of towns and villages in Palestine at the time. It’s estimated that around 400 towns and villages were depopulated in the year 1948 alone. Some of the names on the map are listed below with additional notations based on their current or former status. * Indicates towns and villages which still have a significant Palestinian population. ** Indicates villages that were forcibly depopulated and destroyed or repopulated with non local residents. *** Indicates villages in which all or part of the unarmed of the civilian population was massacred during the depopulation of the villages on 1948
