This is Ivan. He worries about what other people think of him. He’d like to fix his teeth. He owns a telescope but rarely uses it.

Opinion from the FT's Editorial Board: 'The US and European countries that tout Israel as an ally that shares their values have issued barely a word of condemnation. They should be ashamed of their silence, and stop enabling Netanyahu to act with impunity.' www.ft.com/content/f5fd...

Four fish whistles. They make me think of a punk rock band. The stoner in the back on drums, the cutie on vocals, the serious one on bass 🐠 toot toot #womensart #clay #art #whistles #ceramics #pottery #potteryofbluesky #canadianartist #ceramique #céramique #fish

We will not stand idly by: Free Mahmoud Khalil!
Jewish Voice for Peace demands the Trump administration release Palestinian student Mahmoud Khalil from ICE detention. The detention of Mahmoud is further proof that we are on the brink of a full takeover by a repressive, authoritarian regime.
