8th Cir. holds that it was not clearly established law in 2018 that the state had a duty of care toward a suicidal juvenile held in a state-run residential treatment center to prevent them from killing themselves while in custody.

QI for officials.

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.

The Middle East North African (MENA) Chamber of Commerce wants to know why Trump broke his promise to them to call for an immediate ceasefire in Palestine and Lebanon on Nov 6. They actually believed him.

I profiled Rousey for a woman’s magazine cover story in 2015 and had no idea she ever tweeted anything about Sandy Hook. She’s right that it was somehow scrubbed from the Internet. God bless Reddit for finding it and holding her accountable. This is a good apology IMO.
MMA fighter Ronda Rousey has apologized for spreading the Sandy Hook conspiracy:

"To anyone else that's fallen down the black hole of bullshit. It doesn't make you edgy, or an independent thinker, you're not doing your due diligence entertaining every possibility by digesting these conspiracies."

I went to the counter-rally against Parker in Dublin, and one of her supporters there was a ringleader of the Coolock anti-migrant riots in Dublin a couple of weeks ago.

It's notable that of all of "the elites" who JD Vance blamed for the plight of people in rural Kentucky coal country, he never mentioned the elites who owned the coal companies and who extracted generations worth of wealth from the land and the people there. Oddly selective "populism" there.

A Zionist troll on here admitted to me they were a "war explainer"
They said many people in different places had taken time off work to volunteer to explain Israel's actions on social media
No doubt whatsoever this is organised

I want to be clear that when I say this it isn’t just vibes. CNN’s reporting on Israel & Palestine has been deeply scrutinized by other journalists, as in this Jan 4 piece by the Intercept.

NEW -- local sources say #Israel has begun "severe" bombing of #Rafah from the sea, air and land tonight, amid expectation of a major new campaign on the city.

1.2 million civilians (more than 50% of Gazans) are currently sheltering in #Rafah.

Today the Irish Examiner published my piece about the hellscape of platform manipulation and spam that is the modern web. In it, I highlighted that such actions materially benefit Twitter.

Now, for the first time in 14 years, I've been suspended by Twitter. For "platform manipulation and spam".

Israel attacked the Red Crescent ambulance even after they'd cleared them to rescue Hind. The paramedics were killed. Hind is dead as well, and if you listened to the tapes you know she died terrified and alone sounded by the bodies of dead family.
