This is still not really the place for UN stuff, but the US just used one of its rare vetos on a Brazil-drafted Security Council resolution on humanitarian assistance & a humanitarian pause in Gaza.

there's nothing I can say in a bluesky-length post that feels adequate right now so I'm sticking to amplifying better voices than mine & sharing resources.

Get involved with or donate to the Palestinian Children's Relief Fund, they are mobilizing medical care and resources.

Al Jazeera has confirmed the US is trying to delay a vote on a Security Council resolution which authorizes a "humanitarian pause" for aid to get into Gaza until President Biden can make his visit to Israel. European allies want it to happen today.

Let us be clear: This is a fraught moment, and one that has polarized not only Americans but people all over the world. It demands incredible sensitivity and strict adherence to journalistic standards of objectivity, and simply put, that is something we aren’t willing to do.

I know intellectually how little our lives are worth to the "international community" but the past few days have been a very sickening reminder. I feel it in my body, how people think of me and other Palestinians.

Do I love the fact that I have an accountability buddy in @devoncantwell.bsky.social? Yes, yes, I do.

Do I also hate the fact that Devon dares to actually *hold me accountable*? Yes, yes, I do.

I'm writing an Oxford Handbook chapter, and the editors explicitly told me that they *want* a descriptive chapter that is NOT like an "argumentative article."

I am SO enjoying writing this chapter. Descriptive research is really fun!! 😍
