Today’s rain deepens the suffering of families in torn tents and cracked homes. Water leaks from every direction, and the cold bites hardest at children. Nights grow harsher with no shelter. Don’t forget the people of Gaza❤️🍉🇵🇸

I want to return north to where our home stood, but we have no shelter.
I need $700 to buy a tent, a place for my children to sleep safely when we go back.
Your help can bring us closer to home and hope again.🙏

The movie listed at #1 is so incredibly misplaced that it calls into question the veracity of the entire list. It belongs on the list, yes, but SO MUCH further down. An absolute, credibility-wrecking flub. Boo, @variety.com! Boo!

If you care about video games at all, read this.
A lot of the greatest game developers are marginalized people that face harassment both inside and outside work. They should be protected at all costs to keep making great games, but all too often are thrown out and abandoned instead.

For @aftermath.site, I spoke to @imodrew.bsky.social, the Sucker Punch dev fired after making a Charlie Kirk joke.
She paints a picture of an industry that all too often ignores bad actors until those bad actors threaten them financially.

If you have the means, pls do consider matching my $15 donation or give what you can to Omar and Ibrahim's library fund for Gaza. Sometimes giving is in the simple act of RTing (or whatever it's called here). Sharing is caring too!
