It's actually k+t only! You can see both the right and left hands of the Brahmi 𑀓 developing curves.
A little while ago, Lucy fainted from severe hunger and malnutrition… 😞 I bought her medicine, but her fragile body can’t recover without food. She hasn’t moved for hours… and I’m afraid she may never wake up.😢 I’ve asked for help so many times… begged for just a little…
Don't forget my cat, Biso. She's suffering a lot. I don't want to lose her. Pray for her and donate if you can. She's lost a lot of weight. gofund.me/bccefa63 paypal.me/YousefAlJabour
Today, my friend Naim was martyred. He was on his way to get aid to feed his family. A treacherous sniper shot him in the head, leaving him a bleeding martyr. My heart is torn apart with sadness and pain 💔💔😭.
Andry Hernández Romero, the innocent make-up artist imprisoned without trial for 4 months in El Salvador by the Trump admin, is FREE. He was wrongfully accused of being a gang member because of his “mom” and “dad” tattoos, and illegally sent to El Salvador without due process.
We have been in touch with Andry Hernández Romero’s legal team and they have confirmed he is out of CECOT and back in Venezuela. We are grateful he is alive and are engaged with both the State Department and his team.
huhhhh so in Tunisian Arabic, "Syrian" means "foreign"? or even "Western" or "French" according to some other sources I found

An American was beaten to death by Israeli settlers backed by the military. Instead of pursuing justice for Sayfollah, our government continues to send billions to prop up the apartheid system that killed him and kills Palestinians like him every day. Arms Embargo Now.
This is 20 year old Saif Musallet, a US citizen, born in Florida. Yesterday, Saif was brutally beaten to death by Israeli settlers on his family's land. For 3 hours, a mob surrounded Saif and prevented the ambulance and paramedic from reaching him to deliver life-saving care.
True but this makes it seem like indigenous cultures are unique in this regard, when in fact *no language* bases their plant and animal words off their Linnean classification. (Why would they?) The English term “fish” is a great example, see Lulu Miller’s “Why Fish Don’t Exist”
Indigenous cultures around the world often categorize local plants and animals in ways that are drastically different than their scientific classifications in the Linnean system. 🧵
Remember Vedant Patel, the guy who filled in at the State Dept to lie about Israel's crimes in Gaza? He's now VP at a Democrat PR firm that represents Israel's Foreign Ministry and a pro-Israel group that attacks reporters who criticize the genocide And he's not the only one⬇️
Biden spokespersons are cashing in on the Gaza genocide A PR firm run by Biden vets is now contracting with a US mercenary firm implicated in crimes in Gaza This follows a top Biden State Dept spox joining a PR firm which contracts directly with Israel thegrayzone.com/2025/07/12/gaz…
Saif Musallet was a 21 year old who lived in Tampa, Florida and worked at an ice cream shop with his father. He was spending time this summer visiting family in the occupied West Bank. Friday, Saif was beaten to death by Israeli settlers. The U.S. State Department must…
Born in an Israeli prison in 2008. Killed by an Israeli airstrike in 2025.
Me among the wheat and corn fields in Beit Hanoun.💔💔
My hometown, Beit Hanoun, has been completely destroyed, the place where I was born, raised, and grew up, where I felt sorrow and joy. The place that embraced me with all its flowers, trees, orchards, and its kind, beautiful people. This place is my soul, and this occupation has…
Such a mystery why these people aren’t more popular!
