I showed my students (14 years old) this photo of the Vietnam War and had to convince them it was not AI

I never really see this, but I think it's very cool that Palestinian authors have been adding some symbolic flair in their books as topic/chapter breaks

found my activation list instead of just online purchases (first online was Audiosurf).

what a time to be alive, and of course I had to top it off with a game so bad it was removed from Steam entirely...

the adhan means it's dhur, time to pray! with Zohran as mayor, maybe the muslim call to prayer should ring out from the empire state building...

(to be clear, I do this every day, not just on Zohran Mamdani day, as i am muslim alhamdulilah)
June 25, 2025 at 5:29 PM
up next, Zohran's bagel order: poppy seed bagel with scallion cream cheese, toasted!

Today is Zohran Mamdani day here in this NJ home, and we're starting off strong by relishing in the NY Post's tears

May 14, 2025 at 1:01 AM
this is what we're losing when students use ai instead of doing their own work

is this a good time to bring up my steam profile

Lots of video game excitement abound, but if I may, Dolls Nest just came out on Steam and needs to be on the shortlist of anyone who's an Armored Core fan! Would hate to see this one fall between the cracks

"What is the ethical legitimacy of any system in which one has to hope the most privileged sliver of global society decides, in large enough numbers, that a sufficient number of children have been murdered to warrant choosing a different brand of couscous?"

Gavin Newsom heard the left needed its own Joe Rogan podcast and just....became Joe Rogan instead?

palestine book haul for today #booksky #booktok

almost 100 Palestinians murdered since the ceasefire was announced, and with Israel pushing back the vote, the number will only climb.
January 16, 2025 at 5:43 PM
while today is rightfully filled with celebration, just keep in mind going forward that Israel is closer than ever to their goal of extinguishing the Palestinian people and will do whatever it takes to make it happen. They see this ceasefire as a setback, not a step forward.

RIP to one of the greats, and to the man I voted for this past November
