The volunteers aboard the Madleen have been abducted by Israeli forces. The Freedom Flotilla Coalition is urging people to contact the foreign ministries of the activists’ home countries to help ensure their safety.

Jarring fact: Gaza flotilla organizer Huwaida Arraf was on the flotilla Israel attacked in 2010. She also cofounded the group that young American peace activists Rachel Corrie & Aysenur Eygi were part of when Israel killed them—in 2003 & 2024. We're in a meeting point of history

Oh look, tech company emissions are already up 150%, and the AI data center build out has just gotten started.

Dr David Berger, aBsuRdiSTe cROnickLeR Here's one of the longest-running SARS-CoV-2 wastewater series (red line)—San Jose, CA. It shows the reality underneath the terms "during the pandemic" and "post-pandemic". The public is totally divorced from this reality.

hey y’all the heat is making my health dramatically worse, I was able to book 2 nights in a row but I need to extend my reservation bc in the 4 hours between reservations yesterday I fainted from the heat. I am the proud owner of $40 right now

One of the most dangerous perceptions we see with long covid and many other mass disabling events is the idea that only "high risk" people need to worry about it. By establishing an "other" who can be disregarded, the state manufactures consent of harm.

Boosting here, too. Give them a hand if you can!

There is no ‘mystery’ of why children are getting so sick. There is a pile of research on a certain virus that’s been politicised and children are suffering because many who could take action choose to do nothing.

When people say "what does covid have to do with Gaza?" This. The strains that circulate around the world (which, you live in) reach Gaza. Access to vaccines, tests, and masks is a privilege the "global north" takes gravely for granted

“We have to learn to live with COVID. It’s not going away.” NEVER meant “it’s OK to drop all protections and get it four times per year.” It meant that the mitigations and precautions need to stay in place to protect yourself in perpetuity.

the whole fucking world is like we all have brain fog! you need to balance your hormones or eat more fiber with dinner or swap out cardio for yoga or be KIND to yourself! whatever you do, do NOT stop mainlining a virus that causes brain fog on. don’t even try to prevent it

The pandemic normalised eugenics. It normalised the treatment of individuals as being worth no more than ants.

Actually the hardest thing in adulthood is fighting the apathy. It’s so easy to just not do things with your life

All these people post different variations of "stay vigilant" and "stay safe out there!" and then proceed to go out and do neither of those things.

This is why I am 100% anti generative AI. Do not tag that shit in my mentions. Do not pretend it’s useful. Do not feed it information

💥 If you read one thing today, make it this story by Italian journalist Lorenzo D’Agostino — captured aboard the Global Sumud Flotilla: beaten, blindfolded, mocked with homophobic slurs, and held half-naked in freezing vans and scorching cells. According to D’Agostino and

Such a deep loss of a powerful human, voice, and advocate. 😔💔 Please consider donating to the GFM if you can. gofundme.com/f/lleeiii

My mom got Covid from a friend she was traveling with and who had no symptoms at the time. She got home and didn't have symptoms for 2 days before we tested her and she was positive. Asymptomatic transmission counts for over 45% of all infections. Mask up!!!

I'm not sure how many times I can individually walk people through the exercise of understanding how large of a problem COVID still is. People are so impacted by biases, that it's hard to break through the fairytale & doing it individually is exhausting. Yes we are no longer in
