I’m at a loss to see how easily people have brushed past Gaza, like it’s not still happening, hasn’t happened, still arguing over how it happened. Professionally or personally, I don’t know what to do with it, how to respond, or how to engage.

Just started to read Adults in the Room by Yanis Varoufakis. I think 10 years ago I was quite skeptical of Yanis but now more than ever I am quite certain there are no adults behind the wheel.

Reading Mada Masr's reporting on the decline of country production in Egypt, is quite frightening. Supposedly 78% of SME farms shutdown and daily bird production down from 4M a day to 800K.
