There is a record of everything. This administration has been shameless, completely unhinged.

“Sudan is Gaza on the Nile…Khartoum,& other cities & villages are levelled. It is the largest state to collapse in modern history & the largest displacement crisis in the world today. The remaining population is enduring what will probably be the worst famine in Africa in 100 yrs.” on.ft.com/4ae5aB7

Sudan’s last hope lies in external actors ending the war
Middle Eastern states and their allies must not continue to exploit the country as a battleground for their rivalries

I’m at a loss to see how easily people have brushed past Gaza, like it’s not still happening, hasn’t happened, still arguing over how it happened. Professionally or personally, I don’t know what to do with it, how to respond, or how to engage. It will haunt us, though - All of us. It truly will.

I think I should start a social club, one that is interested in tennis, gardening, a cynical world view and good beers.

Getting older means that some of your worst case scenarios become your best case scenarios.

Just started to read Adults in the Room by Yanis Varoufakis. I think 10 years ago I was quite skeptical of Yanis but now more than ever I am quite certain there are no adults behind the wheel.

New from me for @newlinesmag.bsky.social. This one is about the far-right Israeli gov't's unprecedented repression of free expression since Oct. 7, with a campaign coordinated at the ministerial level to have dissenters arrested, expelled, fired, and threatened. newlinesmag.com/spotlight/is...

Since Oct. 7, hundreds of citizens — most Palestinian but many Jewish as well — have been fired, threatened or harassed in an official campaign to throttle antiwar dissent

Was listening this weekend to this podcast about how Chicago sold all their sidewalks (and regretted it) to Morgan Stanley when they were in a minor financial bind, made me wonder about the shitty deals Egypt has/will be signing to try to dig us outside of this whole .

Reading Mada Masr's reporting on the decline of country production in Egypt, is quite frightening. Supposedly 78% of SME farms shutdown and daily bird production down from 4M a day to 800K.
