⚠️ An Israeli-British soldier's Instagram story featured a montage of his participation in night raids on Palestinian civilians' homes in the occupied #WestBank, including beating a civilian in front of his family.

Dear Americans,

Settler colonialism and stolen land is not new.

Israel, a forward operating base for a military entity using civilians as shields to hold onto a piece of land in the Middle East.

This classic from @juliusgoat.bsky.social.

Neither should we care about the motives of people in the present day. They chose what they chose and are bound by that choice.

As are, sadly, we.

No one cares if it's a granny knot or a square knot.

Dear Generative AI engineers who steal other people's works in your art and writing datasets: This is what you are, what you're doing, and why the entire Bluesky art and writing community despises you.

Sanctions hurt the most vulnerable so we're going to make sure no matter who's in charge no matter what happens the most vulnerable will continue to suffer

can't stress enough, as someone who has a lot of experience in media, they know what they are doing when they run provocative and/or genuinely dumb takes. they do not deserve your well-intentioned "marketplace of ideas" counterarguments even a little bit!

“Don’t feed the trolls” also extends to bad opinion pieces in papers of record.

They run them bc people react to them the most.

If we stop linking to bad columns and instead post thinkers we find valuable (& generate convo around it), incentives change.

It’s not easy and takes constant practice!

It always amazes me that Edward Said wrote this in 1986, 15 years before 9/11, and was able to so presciently predict where these framings and discourses would lead us.
Thanks @jasminekgani.bsky.social & @hebagowayed.bsky.social for the timely reminder of the tainted history of this term

As soon as Assad was deposed, Israel forces seized more of Syria’s territory. Now they’re bombing key sites in the country.
Israeli airstrikes attacked the Al-Mazzeh Military Airport in Damascus, Syria. This is a terrorist attack in violation of the new Syria's sovereignty and international law. The attack comes less than 24 hours after Syria gained its independence from the Assad regime.

The second #art poster inspired by the works of Walter Crane, "Labour is Entitled" (2024) is another three-cat portrait commission. The slogan itself was first used in the early 19th century. It features three workers in industries vital to cats: fishing, biscuit making, and catnip production.

The second biscuit makers union poster follows the workers of biscuit making "from field to tummy." This journey is depicted literally in the poster: starting with farm fields, through harvest, and production and a fleet of trucks ready to deliver biscuits to happy cats at a shop.
