Between October 2023 and April 2024, Israel dropped more explosives on Gaza than were dropped on London, Dresden, and Hamburg combined during all of WWII. The destruction of Rafah, which I believe is the city in this picture, did not begin until May 2024.

The verb ‘to wait’ comes from Old French, but French in turn borrowed it from the ancestor of Dutch ‘wachten’. Their word family include ‘wake’, ‘woke’, ‘watch’, and, via Latin, ‘vigilant’, ‘vigour’, ‘vegetation’, and ‘vegetable’. Click my new graphic to learn all about it:

People in Gaza have sent messages of thanks to Macklemore, painting a mural and recording videos thanking the rapper for speaking out for Palestinians. The messages come days after Macklemore was removed from the remaining US dates of Ed Sheeran’s Loop Tour.

The Spanish way of saying “from where” is ‘de donde’. However, a thousand years ago, that would’ve meant “from from from where”. In Old Spanish, “from where” was simply ‘onde’, but this word ended up getting reinforced by ‘de’ (“from”) twice. Click my new infographic to see how it happened.

An instagram post from the Voros Twins (Da Vinky?) saying that an ICE agent tried to order a Cameo from them to say ICE isn’t dangerous and doesn’t hurt people but they declined the order because “We hate I.C.E.!”

On this day in antiquity: the final known text in Egyptian hieroglyphs is written down. These two texts from Roman Egypt, written in hieroglyphs and Demotic on the Nile island of Philae, are short, but they nonetheless give us their author's name and their date of creation: August 24th 394 AD.

I'd argue that, for the metrics, it's vastly MORE important that viewers turn this off. There's more viewers than streamers, so even if every streamer turned this off, if viewers don't, the executives can still claim that "most users don't care" and cram it down our throats even harder. Opt out.

Qawawis is a Palestinian village in the West Bank. Since the Oslo Accords, it falls into "Area C," which makes up ~60% of the WB and is run solely by the Israeli military. Israel is actively settling this area, and one might think Israeli children could use this school, but the cruelty is the point.
