Barely an hour ago, Palestinian journalist Anas Al-Sharif warned us all:
“If this madness doesn’t end, Gaza will be reduced to ruins, its people’s voices silenced, their faces erased — and history will remember you as silent witnesses to a genocide you chose not to stop.”
Israel just killed him.

using public transit is the only way to go between East Bellevue and downtown Seattle. the views are wonderful and it's fast (25-30 minutes to 4th Ave). I just wish we had more direct lines to other parts of Seattle 🥲 The trip to Columbia City is over an hour by bus when it's only 20 minutes by car.

not to brag but my first post here was about Rama Duwaji, Zohran's wife. imo she's cooler than him but he's cool too.
My first post will be about Rama Duwaji, a Syrian artist based in Brooklyn, whose work I love. The closest I am to getting a print of hers is buying this design as a part of a campaign for helping people in North Gaza in the upcoming winter everpress.com/khair-ya-tair
