“Israel has killed a classroom full of children every single day.” UNRWA Sam Rose tells BBC Radio 4. Children in #Gaza have been killed while sleeping, sheltering in schools, or queuing for water. Graphic by @TRTWorld
The White House posted this photo with some bullshit they thought was inspiring. But I actually find the photo a fitting metaphor: America, depicted as the dying Roman Empire. The collapse of our once great nation— our flag in tatters, and a narcissistic, sociopathic Nero Trump
What Israel has done will be remembered in history as a modern-day holocaust — with the world watching in silence.
🇵🇸 Barcelona residents gathered in Catalonia Square to show solidarity with Palestine and Gaza.
1915: Armenian Genocide. 1945: Nazi Genocide. Right now: Gaza Genocide. Netanyahu’s brutal extermination campaign continues. He, his government, and their enablers must be held accountable. We must not allow humanity to repeat history nor remain silent.
We've arranged a society based on science and technology, in which nobody understands anything about science and technology. And this combustible mixture of ignorance and power, sooner or later, is going to blow up in our faces. ~ Carl Sagan
RETWEET if you stand with Stephen Colbert after Paramount/CBS fired him.
Charlie Chaplin felt so strongly about fighting fascism against Germany in 1940 that he broke his silence for the first time ever to deliver this monologue
The newly discovered microbe provisionally known as Sukunaarchaeum isn’t a virus. But like viruses, it seemingly has one purpose: to make more of itself. Learn more: scim.ag/4eGtttN @NewsfromScience
This heat dome is incredible so early in summer. #France has 16 regions on red heatwave alert today, & the Eiffel Tower is closed. #Portugal & #Spain already broke their June records with 46°C. Usually, heat builds over July/August-this is a reminder we are entering a new climate

Encara hi ha massa gent que no sap que 'Jurassic World: El renéixer' s'estrena demà en català. És molt important que les sessions en la nostra llengua s'omplin, però la publicitat de la versió catalana és pràcticament inexistent. Ajudem-nos amb un RT per arribar a tothom!
When you’ve witnessed thousands of these scenes, you can’t help but wonder: how can those who’ve likely seen none—or seen them and refused to see the victims as human—dare to speak of “balance” in the face of genocide? Balance between what—and whom?
Nothing to see here, just footage Al Jazeera obtained of Israeli forces murdering a Palestinian man carrying a sack of flour on his back
The ongoing marine heatwave in the Mediterranean Sea is one of the largest marine anomalies observed globally Via @IanHall_CU
It's not "just summer" when you have temperatures 12°C higher than normal covering France on the 1st day of July. These are hazardous heat waves becoming more frequent and driven by global warming trends. We weren't supposed to see these repeating heatwaves for decades.
In the untamed wilds of America, the MAGA emerges… confused, combative, and completely unbothered by facts. Narration by David Attenborough. Pray for the camera crew.
The rate of global warming is accelerating.
Avui fa 35 anys que va morir Manuel de Pedrolo, i és bon dia per anunciar que tenim un assaig polític inèdit, triplement censurat, de l'enemic a batre. Un llibre que sortirà aquest setembre, que trepitjarà ulls de poll i que hauria de ser una notícia majúscula.🥂❤️
