Heart shattering to learn an Israeli drone has targeted and assassinated Mahmoud Almadhoun, one of the founders and chefs behind the Gaza Soup Kitchen.
What started as four pots and essential ingredients in Bait Lahia had grown into a remarkable effort to feed 3,000 people daily.

These conversations about low NHS productivity are so bizarre.
What makes people and orgs productive? Care. Good pay. Support. Demonstrations of value.
NHS staff have been treated terribly and continually bashed by the media..
The government needs to start supporting NHS staff properly!

Today I listened to an old Desert Island Discs where Lauren Laverne interviewed Ian Wright.
He was open, honest, articulate, and above all incredibly emotionally intelligent.
I'm not ashamed to say that tears came to my eyes more than once.

On this Independence Day for Palestine - it stands in the shadow of 45,000 people who have been murdered by the Israeli government.
It stands in the shadow of a brutal occupation & an ongoing assault that feels like peace is a distant dream.
The UK must end arms sales now.

Honestly a huge part of it is that you used to be able to report an account with a swastika profile pic tweeting endlessly about aryan supremancy and it would get removed, now it can pay for a special blue tick to get on your FYP and X just puts any complaints in the shredder.
Some people cannot comprehend that the exodus from X is not 'liberal flight' but a lot of people deciding that the content on the platform - hate/extremism, disinformation, violent/nsfw content, low quality ads, lax responses to user reports, suppression of content - just can't be ignored any more.

Hi Bluesky
I'm an Israel-born, anti-Zionist, Arab-Jewish writer, and somewhat of a political activist. I am mostly about freedom and liberation from all kinds of domination and colonization.
(I would have posted the essay here, but it's too long).

Palestine Means Justice, Dignity and Freedom for our Generation. We Cannot Ever Back Down.
More than virtually any other current major struggle, Palestine invokes the dearest, most pressing and vital elements of our shared moment in time. The people know it. So does capitalist-colonialism
