We don’t like resistance stories without a cathartic revolution, they don’t feel like blowing up the Death Star. They feel like loss. They’re not. We need to revisit these worst case scenarios to see that, even when resistance didn’t *win* it did *work*. It saved lives & livelihoods. 23/?

Good resistance news: An 'Achilles heel' discovered in antibiotic resistant bacteria. Scientists in Canada found the critical vulnerability: bacteria need zinc. Deprive them of the nutrient & their stability is disrupted making them susceptible to antibiotics again www.genengnews.com/topics/infec...

Amazing to think that if Herman Melville had been born 170 years later we wouldn't have got Moby Dick but an elite-tier shitposter arguing with everybody about whales being a type of fish.

A colourful reminder of mortality in this gold ring which has a skull and crossbones shaped bezel, enamelled in white. The skull is bordered by rubies - which look quite a bit more purple here than they do in real life. c.1550-75. From V&A #skystorians #mementomori

I would encourage everyone to read the UN human rights office report on the full list of Israeli violations in Gaza

If you don't have the time or inclination, look at this graphic, which is a breakdown by age and sex of the fatalities
