The diplomatic "achievement" of the ceasefire was to recalibrate the tempo of the genocide sufficiently to get it off the front pages and the news bulletins, thus alleviating the political pressure on Israel's western accomplices.

Why do so many feel like they've fallen behind?
It's not because of immigrants, trans people, DEI, the “deep state,” or any other bogeyman trotted out by the GOP.
It's because big corporations and billionaires have rigged markets and siphoned off most of the economy's gains.

A third unvaccinated infant in Kentucky died of whooping cough; these 3 deaths are the first since 2018. Whooping cough (pertussis) is a highly contagious respiratory illness that is most dangerous for infants, and vaccination is the most effective way to prevent it. Race of babies is not reported.

Okay here it is. Women represent 1/3 (32%) of those actions captured (fewer women on site) but of those, most are engaged in active excavation tasks (trowelling, mattocking, shovelling). Meanwhile, the majority of men’s activities captured are ‘standing’ and ‘moving’.
