Every second in Gaza is a agonizing countdown for my brother Marwan, who lies critically wounded by shrapnel. We need just $180 to cover the cost of the surgery he needs to survive. We implore you to support us—donate or share this post to help us overcome this tragedy. chuffed.org/project/moh01

that kind of discovery requires a different world of in-depth reviews and critical essays in a sphere of independent magazines and bloggers &c. in the absence of a robust bookish internet of this kind, what you get is books that vanish into the dark and can at best hope to be "rediscovered" some day

IKR I'd absorbed it long before I started writing books myself, that the kind of books I wanted to read would simply never be discoverable via ratings-based bookish platforms—they represent a mode of collective reading out of scope for these apps

My brother Wissam desperately needs treatment. He suffers from severe malnutrition, and we urgently need $200 for the food and medicine he needs. Seeing him struggle breaks our hearts. Any support or share could help us reach him. 🙏💔 chuffed.org/project/majdi

💔 Please don’t let Ahmed die alone. His abdomen is still open. He cries in unbearable pain, and there is almost no time left for the surgery he desperately needs. We are terrified this may be our last chance. 🙏 Even $5 could help save him. Please, help Ahmed now. chuffed.org/project/mahm...

A few days ago, Nurse Hammam & his family survived an Israeli bombing in Gaza, but they lost their tent & are now homeless, hungry, sleeping on the streets with nothing. They urgently need $350 for a new tent & food. Every contribution could be a lifeline for them🙏💔 chuffed.org/project/1844...

Skydance now owns Nick, Cartoon Network, Adult Swim, Comedy Central, and MTV, effectively ending US TV animation as we know it. Countless jobs will be lost, and fewer new shows will be created. An apocalyptic scenario for cartoons, yet it's maybe the 5th-worst thing about the Paramount-WB merger!

Screenshot of database titled "Explore All Incidents Where Citizens Were Detained." Text below explains that this is every incident ProPublica could find in which one or more citizens were reportedly detained between January 2025 and September 2026. There are 506 citizens' cases in the database, and users can sort by what the incidents involve, where the incident is located, and the recency of the case.

Yet another example of what we keep telling people. This isn't a coincidence. Party leaders are supporting anti-trans triangulation as a strategy. We either push back now, hold the party accountable of this will be the 2028 strategy. Trans lives and rights aren't a bargaining chip.
