Alongside the word of the year we should have “the word that has lost the most of its meaning this year”. I nominate “ceasefire”.

The OG of international citizen media - Global Voices has done so much for human rights in Asia, from promoting the first wave of regional bloggers, to reporting on the Uyghur genocide. I'm guessing it's the knock-on effects of the USAID rug-pull that is screwing so many well-established rights orgs

$250,000 is a lot of money. But last quarter we had more than 450,000 page views; $1 for each of them- the cost of a fairly old-timey newspaper -would have us more than covered. If you enjoy our articles, chip in the cost of a coffee, or $10, or $15. Help us to keep offering the coverage you value.

In media, many voices, narratives & entire peoples are considered irrelevant by too many boardrooms. @globalvoices.org platforms those critical stories &the locals around the globe who write them. Like many non-profits, they've been hit with cuts. GV is worth supporting. Check out their fundraiser.

new mini-pod of the @globalvoices.org "Where are you REALLY from?" podcast series coming out this week, hosted by @akwe.bsky.social and produced by @ameyann.bsky.social, catch up on the three previous mini-episodes first - all of them fantastic, and for me deeply relatable

Great to see all these images of Germans demonstrating against fascism. This means that indeed they do have the ability to both recognize fascism and to demonstrate and mobilize against it. However, too bad that for over 15 months we did not see these crowds take to the streets in such fervour. 1/5

The ceasefire deal makes it obvious: Joe Biden failed

The ceasefire deal is the same one Biden put forward months ago. If he had pushed harder, thousands of lives could have been saved.
