In Lebanon. Can hear the Israeli drone constantly now. I’ve only been back for a day but folks here deal with it 24/7, for months. It’s psychological torture. You can even see it, just flying around. The Israelis want to let everyone know that they can kill whoever they want whenever they want.

One of my favorite stories about Mamdani’s father, who was jailed during the civil rights march in Montgomery in 1965:
Weeks after he got out, the FBI paid him a visit. They asked why he was at the march, and who had influenced him. An hour into the interrogation, they asked, “Do you like Marx?”

Vocês conseguem todos visualizar imagens mentais?
Mental imagery is associated with a bewildering variety of human traits and capacities: a propensity to hold grudges; a vulnerability to trauma; emotional awareness; ways of making art; memory of one’s life. What happens if you can’t see it? https://newyorkermag.visitlink.me/kYYf4W
Some People Can’t See Mental Images. The Consequences Are Profound
Research has linked the ability to visualize to a bewildering variety of human traits—how we experience trauma, hold grudges, and, above all, remember our lives.

81 Palestinians died in Israeli custody in the last two years, due to torture and neglect.
Since 7th October 2023, Israeli prisons have become an instrument of mass torture on unprecedented level.
There are currently over 11 thousands Palestinians in those prisons, most of them held without charge.

“After I won the Pulitzer … My parents were stunned, and extremely proud, but I remember my father said, ‘You should always have a backup plan. You’re like a politician now, and you will go in and out of favor.’” —Jhumpa Lahiri buff.ly/r8ozSPh

“To think of posterity nowadays is ludicrous because things do not last. Books seem to last more than films or records but even they do not last very long.”

this is quite something - a rare public outing by Tom Waits with a moving performance of Tom Traubert's Blues, with its Waltzing Matilda refrain. Made for an Italian documentary, he uses the song to make a call for compassion for the homeless. He is now 75 www.youtube.com/watch?v=U2sV...

⚠️ Netanyahu announces the IDF ground incursion into Gaza City is imminent and tells remaining residents “Get out of there!”
This is forced displacement and is part of ethnic cleansing and genocide. Saying “You have been warned” does not make it less so.
