Today is the day! #Refuge is officially out, making me an official book author! I am so proud of this book, and overwhelmed with gratitude to everyone who made it possible. 🙏🏽 Some dreams do come true.
Ah yes because the mass murder, destruction of schools and hospitals, that went on for 16 months before Jan 2025 was just an ethnic decluttering.
Rosenberg is always interesting to watch, as he's one of the more sophisticated hasbara pundits. Something horrible must be coming, and they are trying to get ahead of it by pinning it on Trump/Smotrich in order to prevent mass delegitimization of Israel per se.
My controversial opinion is while maternal mental health is very real from postpartum to depression — there’s also no small part that’s the medicalization of women for being with useless men.
Can a woman get her kids ready for school without shouting? Please recommend ways to do it for me because my wife shouts too much.
Awesome: "NYC Comptroller Brad Lander has withdrawn tens of millions of dollars of the city’s pension funds from the State of Israel." jpost.com/bds-threat/art…
Every editor who canceled a story about Palestine brought us here. Every boss who censored an employee. Everyone who said “not this way” to protesters. Every university admin calling the cops. Bloody. All your hands are bloody, and we will never forget.
Can someone compile a thread of every liberal now denouncing the famine with their previous tweets and statements full of bloodlust for the genocide?
Fascinating and absolutely terrifying they’re all doing this in unison now
This is a horror and Israel is to blame. There needs to be a ceasefire and Gaza flooded with food and water. nytimes.com/2025/07/24/wor…
"Looking over the data shows an odd trend: Mamdani's victory was built on the backs of people who don't own cars. The less time you spend in a car, the more likely it is you backed Zohran Mamdani." jalopnik.com/1895759/nyc-ma…
This campaign hasn’t received any donations for a while. Nader’s family is large, and he is their sole provider. His family is going through extremely harsh and heartbreaking conditions. Please, donate and share the campaign. gofund.me/72f858e0
These bluey episodes catch me in my feels man — cartoon making me full out cry.
So this is the AIPAC line...fascinating.
pathetic statement gets a head pat from its intended audience
Setting up a recurring donation to these three— who will join?
An appeal to folks on this platform…pls consider supporting grassroots mutual aid work regularly in Palestine, Congo and Sudan. I recommend @congofriends and @sameerproject and @sdnsolidarity but there are so many others too! $10 a month goes a long way. Bcm a monthly donor.

I don’t know if yall know this but four @CUNY faculty at Brooklyn college were either not renewed or terminated due to their Palestine activism. A rally is being held on Thursday in Brooklyn to stand up for academic freedom at the CUNY four — please join if you can!
1/4 We condemn the recent non-reappointment of three CUNY adjunct faculty members and termination of another. These dismissals, carried out in direct contradiction to unanimous departmental recommendations and without any due process or explanation #BCFired4 #PSC
Michael Walzer's response was to say that UNRWA should have been eliminated years ago
The US defunded the primary UN organization feeding the people of Gaza in Jan 2024 and no one batted an eye. They did it to help Israel use aid as a weapon of war. Now as the predicted famine arrives in full everyone is throwing their alibis together and it makes me fucking sick
aka everyone in the Biden admin who didnt resign and the majority of Congress. Let us make it so.
No one who defended Israel’s conduct the last two years, or did not use all of the power they had to try and stop this, should ever hold elected or higher office in the United States ever again.
3 out of 26 letters down , challenging myself to sculpt the whole alphabet with my hair ..I attached the a and m if you missed it
Remembering when we had to defend ourselves against the disgusting "blood libel" charge when we pointed out that Israel was purposefully murdering Palestinian babies. Now it's just a day ending in "y"
More or less every single person in the US with more power than, say, Rashida Tlaib has already made peace with the destruction of Gaza and its inhabitants. Anything they say now, unless matched by action, is strictly damage control.
