1) Person minding their business 2) Israelis show up looking for confrontation while also playing victim 3) Israelis lash out at person 4) Person responds in-kind 5) Israelis treat response like it was an unprovoked offense and escalate this clip 🤝🏿 the last 80yrs

“No politics here” 😂

A tremendously talented young game artist applied to study games formally in Sweden, but can't afford it anymore as all his money has gone towards surviving Israel's genocide. As he struggles to survive, and trapped in Gaza, we can restore Ahmed's dream. gofundme.com/f/help-ahmed-s…

I've never understood why the desire to return to one's ancestral homeland after 2,000 years is considered legitimate and reasonable but the desire to return to one's family home after 80 years is considered unreasonable romanticism and an "obstacle to peace"

BREAKING: Belgian TV channel interrupts Eurovision to address Israel’s genocide: “This is a union action. We condemn the human rights violations committed by Israel. Additionally, Israel is destroying press freedom. That is why we are pausing the broadcast for a moment.” 🇵🇸🔥

The EU has announced it will reinstate funding to UNRWA after having suspended it due to Israels allegations (for which they provided zero evidence)

People in #Gaza are in extreme peril while the world watches on. No one can claim “I did not know” as the images, footage and voices of unspeakable suffering continue. We cannot turn a blind eye to this human tragedy any longer.

one of the most astonishing things over the past 4 months is that verified reports from Israeli media itself that the genocidal Israeli regime is intentionally killing its own people in Gaza gets zero coverage in the West. Zero coverage. It's insane twitter.com/zei_squirrel/s…

the Israel regime intentionally killed Jews, their own citizens, with poison gas in Gaza

Go through this thread, then consider Israel’s claims that Palestinians take up arms because they’re brainwashed by UNRWA school textbooks.

🚨The IDF has been operating an unofficial psychological warfare Telegram channel "72 Virgins - Uncensored" that regularly dehumanized Gazans, calling them "cockroaches", & posted graphic videos to celebrate their mutilation, maiming, killing & humiliation, per Haaretz.

Last few days in Palestine: - Genocide death toll reaches 28,000. - Israeli government officials dance at 'Gaza resettlement conference', as they openly celebrate their progress towards genocide & ethnic cleansing. - Israeli PM commits to 'continuing' genocide 'at all costs'.

Building and growing a business becomes more evident when you reorganize and defend it from economic uncertainties. For the video games industry, that’s when the real game begins. Get ready, player one! #pressStart #gamedev #IndieGameDev

One day we'll figure out the mysterious dynamics of why the games industry is dying despite record profits. In other news, Bobby Kotick's payout could've single-handedly floated 2-3 AAA studios for a full year.

“Bobby Kotick was paid $155 million and EA CEO Andrew Wilson was paid $21.4 million in compensation packages, according to SEC filings. Meanwhile, ZipRecruiter estimates the average annual income for US game workers is $38,600, compared to $68,310 for the movie industry”
