Israeli soldiers have been leaving Google reviews of places they've destroyed in Southern Lebanon, in these images they joke about the destruction of a Mosque and of a Hospital:

While people are watching the U.S. elections, we in North Gaza can hear heavy shelling and U.S.-sponsored bombs being dropped on us. Remember, whoever wins, they are all war criminals.

Please please do not let this become normalised. every time you see an image or video of a screaming child, a burning woman, a man crying because he lost everything, sit with it. Take it in and let it fill you with grief and rage, and let that move you to demand an end to this.

every child you see with mangled legs being hopelessly carried, every person you see lit on fire, all the dust covered faces, they were a whole universe. to themselves and everybody they knew. lives as complex, joyful and difficult as yours. it kills me. i’ll never get numb to it


At the point of the semester where my AAPI lit class is starting to realize I am also an AAPI author… one just asked me to sign a copy of my book for them 🥹

Still in disbelief that my debut full-length is coming out in spring 2026 with a dream press! Looking forward to working with @Noemi_Press on this project that I've mostly kept to myself until now. Congratulations to Felicia Zamora! I'm so honored to be published alongside you.

If you support the Palestinians, please stop using the 40,000 death toll figure. The Lancet's "conservative estimate" was 186,000 and that was about a month ago.
