Wow. From one of the latest United Nations updates:
The UN attempted to reach North Gaza 165 times between October 6th & December 31st.
149 attempts were denied by Israeli authorities & 16 faced impediments.
As in, *every single* attempted UN aid mission was blocked or impeded.

This is insane:

Edmonton Police authorized a *7 month* surveillance operation targeting a journalist critical of police and followed his family doing mundane things

This covert operation was supposedly necessary to determine who vandalized a statue honouring a literal WW2 Nazi

Two vital pieces of info b4 Black Friday:

1. Price trackers have proven that Amazon has been slowly hiking prices so they can pretend to slash them on Black Friday/Cyber Monday. There are no actual deals. Just the appearance of them.

2. Amazon workers are on strike

Been looking for an opportunity to see this since I missed it at full frame. Check it out! 👇🏻
I wrote about UNION, the gripping and much-needed documentary about the Amazon Labor Union, and why it hasn't gotten a distribution deal (spoiler: Bezos has too much money/power). You can stream it on Gathr this weekend and you should! slate.com/culture/2024...
Amazon Doesn’t Want You to Stream This Gripping New Documentary. This Weekend, You Can.
Union won raves and an award at Sundance, but executives have been afraid to make it available. Now it is.
