Here’s the only eulogy to Henry Kissinger worth reading. Rest in Peace, Anthony Bourdain.

As an urban designer, I find this article appalling & horrific in its implications - design cities as barracks to withstand more wars, instead of addressing militarization policies, accountability for war crimes or arms proliferation. Surprised that Urban Design Group shared this.

UNESCO's silence when it comes to #Israel's systematic destruction of #Palestinian #CulturalHeritage is very disturbing. Clearly, the agency has lost its moral compass under Audrey Azoulay who was quick to react to #Ukraine, but not a word for #Gaza!. mediaview.aljazeera.com/video/sTvb0bZZ…

Imagine being a North African woman overcoming countless social and political obstacles - especially rigid gender norms - to make it to the Olympics, only to have an incoherent right-wing mob try to force those same norms on you. Solidarity with Imane Khelif
