Me, age 10, doing an essay on the pharoah’s curse for school: huh. So this archeologist that died and everyone thought it was because he disturbed the pharoah’s tomb actually died because he used a rusty razor to shave and it infected a mosquito bite. I can see how people could come to that conclusion, but it is a bit silly

Me, today, shaving my mosquito bite-ridden legs: I must tread carefully lest I incur the pharoah’s wrath

I rly hate the Satanic Panic & the moral panic surrounding violence in video games in the 90s, coz it's now impossible to talk about the social implications of violent video games in a realistic sense.

No, violence in video games does not create serial killers in the way most people imagine it would.

However, it's very important to notice how after 9/11, a lot of violent video games pivoted their content from silly gratuitous cartoon gore to more realistic military shooters set in the Levant from a US American lens. It's also important to notice the connection of these games & their toxic online multi-player voice chats to Gamer Gate in 2014.

It's obviously not as black & white as it was presented in the 80s & 90s, I dont think everyone who played early Call of Duty games is a white supremacist who wants to join the military to kill people in the middle east, but I think it's dangerous to pretend like video games or any media can't have an impact on the way people think about violence.

I think what makes all the difference here is how that violence is portrayed, what the message behind it is, what the motives are behind the people who crafted that message, who the victims of that violence are, how they are portrayed & the greater cultural context that surrounds it.

Eyes on the road people. Eyes on the thousands of people on their way to the Gaza border to break the siege.

Hello Everyone,

To those who may not know me or who Ezzideen is:

I am Boshra, and I’ve known Ezzideen for what feels like a lifetime. He’s one of the most selfless souls I’ve ever met, always putting others before himself, no matter the cost.

During med school, when anxiety would grip me before exams, Ezzideen was always there, sitting with me through those long, nerve-wracking nights. He never left my side, waiting for me until the very last moment when I would walk out of the exam room. His support was unwavering.

Last October, Ezzideen finally achieved his dream and graduated from med school. It was a moment that should have been filled with joy and celebration. Five days later, he returned to Gaza after 10 years to be with his family and share in that happiness.

But what was meant to be a celebration turned into a nightmare. He lost most of his family in the blink of an eye. The pain and grief he carries are unimaginable.

Ezzideen is not just a number, and no one in Gaza is just a number. Each one of them has a story, a heart that beats with dreams, love, and memories.

I am here, doing everything I can to help Ezzideen and the few remaining members of his family survive this war. I want to see them safe, and I want to see them free from the constant fear that now surrounds them.

The funds we are raising are keeping them going day by day, and we are also trying to collect enough to help them cross the Rafah border when the time comes.

I can’t do this alone. I need your help. Please, help me show Ezzideen how much his presence in my life means to me, and how much we can all come together to make a difference, even in the darkest of times.

Hello, I won't take much of your time. I'll just say that we can no longer bear all this hunger, siege, and death. We're truly exhausted. I've written dozens of posts since my Tumblr debut. Many have supported and helped me, but many have also been opposed and abused by ruthless, unscrupulous, and Zionist people. I came to say: If any of you can help in any way, whether by donating, sharing, or anything else, please help us. We are being torn apart by hunger. And when I say torn apart, hunger is truly tearing us apart. I want a normal life with water, electricity, and food. I want to live in peace and sleep without fear. You can help me now by finding the scarce and expensive food. I hope the crossing will open soon so I can escape the horrors of war. So, I'm here to ask for your help. Follow my blog, share this post, and donate to me. Sorry for the inconvenience and thank you for your time. This is my donation link if you are able to donate click here please donate thank you

Not to preach to the choir but I wonder if people generally realize that AI models like ChatGPT aren't, like, sifting through documented information when you ask it particular questions. If you ask it a question, it's not sifting through relevant documentation to find your answer, it is using an intensely inefficient method of guesswork that has just gone through so many repeated cycles that it usually, sometimes, can say the right thing when prompted. It is effectively a program that simulates monkeys on a typewriter at a mass scale until it finds sets of words that the user says "yes, that's right" to enough times. I feel like if it was explained in this less flattering way to investors it wouldn't be nearly as funded as it is lmao. It is objectively an extremely impressive technology given what it has managed to accomplish with such a roundabout and brain-dead method of getting there, but it's also a roundabout, brain-dead method of getting there. It is inefficient, pure and simple.

nonverbal, nonspeaking, minimally verbal, without functional communication, or cannot communicate via language at all even AAC

w intellectual disability or cognitive disabilities

who cannot fit into society definition of useful n productive, no matter how hard we try

because we always are & always will be primary target.

because we most vulnerable most marginalized within our, OUR community, which you belong in.

because once they finish us off you won’t be spared.

Now joy is spreading among the Palestinian people and everyone is happy about this. A prisoner exchange deal will be announced and the war will stop.
