The fun thing about writing is how these completely unhinged characters show up and make themselves at home on the page, while you, their gracious host, actually had something else in mind entirely.

It is not a war though, is it?
How long the Gaza war goes on depends largely on Joe Biden. He continues to reject calls for a ceasefire. But his administration has concerns about Israel's long-term strategy, many voters are unhappy with his policy, and so are America's Arab partners. economist.com/middle-east-an…
And all the angels wept 😭😭😭 Is this what happens when a PR agency uses AI to draft their pitches?
Irish PM Varadkar on Gaza: "To me, it amounts to collective punishment. Cutting off power, cutting off fuel supplies and water supplies, that's not the way a respectable democratic state should conduct itself." Puts him at odds with most Western leaders.rte.ie/news/primetime…
"As Gaza loses power, hospitals lose power, putting newborns in incubators and elderly patients on oxygen at risk…Without electricity, hospitals risk turning into morgues." The words of the International Red Cross. The siege of Gaza is murder. It is a war crime.
So maybe anthropomorphising animals is "wrong" but look at this tiny little giant puppy wuppy baby who just wants to have a cuddle and a chat about why the dog next door is such a meanie
Posting “wow super problematic” under everybody’s Halloween costume and then responding “I will not do the labor of educating you” when they ask for an explanation.
Do yourself a favor and read this book. If you’ve already read it, read it again.

Is it weird to wave at dogs? Asking for my dog, who is worried about me.
I would like people to consider becoming aware of a few basic concepts of living in a big city: --Every individual is complex in a way you can't see from outside --clothing choices are not moral virtues. --Observing something does not automatically render you superior to it.
One of the most insane parts of his defence here, and there are many insane parts, is that he 'he felt no desire for her'. Oh right, that's ok then? theguardian.com/football/video…
