I’m sharing a Palestinian account every day and today is Najla. Najla is the mother of 3 children, Reema, 14, Saif, 10 and Mohammed, 7. Before this Najla was studying psychology. She lost her university, her home and also her dear mother. Najla has a really bad ear and toothache and needs care.

"Israel’s policies and actions in Gaza meet the legal definition of genocide in Article II of the United Nations Convention for the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide (1948)".

THE HAGUE, Sept 1 (Reuters) - The world's leading genocide scholars' association has passed a resolution saying that the legal criteria have been met to establish Israel is committing genocide in Gaza. Forced famine/genocide. Will the rest of the world finally agree and act to stop this madness?

My latest must-reads list and my final thoughts for the week. Here, I talk about the first AI-involved murder in the US (that we know of), how the guardrails of reality are being tampered with or removed, and the need to anchor ourselves to each other if we're going to survive these times.

To be very clear: yes, he's still genocide Joe. As long as he lives he will be genocide Joe. It is the last thing anyone will remember about him before he is forgotten forever. There is nothing he or anyone else can do to change that because there is nothing that can bring back those people.

The thing is, every time you defend Newsom as a great candidate and what “we” need, you’re telling trans people that you’re willing to throw them under the bus You can sit in my mentions and whine about how I’m criticizing Newsom too much and I will continue to highlight how your transphobia sucks

Consider sun-faded teddy bears tied to street signs and lightposts, marking that a child was killed in a car accident right there. What the gestapo is doing right now is also traumatic and horrifying, right now they are arguing in court to be able to traffic 600 children into a concentration camp.

I’ve needed to make this for a bit- but here’s a thread of people who are being forced out of Gaza City- a lot of people living in Gaza City have been in bombed out buildings so they don’t have tents and also they need transportation. ⬇️⬇️⬇️

A new story released by NPR earlier today further confirms what has already been perceived by many: Biden, Blinken, Sullivan and McGurk were personally favorable to Israel no matter its behavior and dismissed internal attempts to hold Israel accountable and to enforce US law on military assistance.

It's amazing how little it takes for liberals to abandon civil rights. Conservatives poured money into making trans people a culture war fixation and transphobia still isn't actually an electoral winner, but liberals are ecstatic to "make a tough sacrifice" and mulch us to run right and lose again.

The army creeps toward Gaza City, silently and unseen, erasing the last of its buildings. In just a few days, the city will be reduced to rubble, its streets unrecognizable. Before the indifferent eyes of the world, we witness a quiet farewell to our home yet no one stirs, no one hurries.
