if you want to risk making a real nuisance of yourself, there's an easy way to do it. it's just, you know, "back up everything first" risky 🧡

I know, it's unbelievably stupid. the last time he was triple banned, he said to give his telegram info out to his friends if you all wanted it: he's at t.me/Kaled189419841984. i know not everyone uses telegram, but when his internet is strong he's quite chatty.
i'm sorry that's all i've got 💔

if you haven't rediscovered our brother mohamed ahmed, he's @mazraeat-saghira.bsky.social ("small farm"? but i'm ignorant). he's doing his best not to lose 3 accounts in 2 weeks, so please go say hi and show him some love. he's also having health issues due to constant stress 😭

a photo by instagram user Abdel.Rahim.Khatib, taken on 18 December 2018. The sun is rising and the sky is yellow, darkening into deep, golden mustard. at the bottom of the photo, two shepherds, their flock, and donkey are silhouetted as they walk north.

the caption (which I deleted) said: "#Palestinian #shepherds with the #cattle at #sunrise near the #Israel-#Gaza #border, #east of #Rafah #town in the #southern #Gaza #Strip, on #November 30, 2018. #Photo by Abdel Rahim Khatib"

this is the statement from the "let's just give flour to the bakeries" UN lady's boss that talks about "famine in Gaza" without using "israel" once:

it is a 𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘳𝘪𝘣𝘭𝘦 statement, especially after reading how much of the food distribution shitshow was their fault for constantly acquiescing to israel.

Statement by Dr. Ramiz Alakbarov, Humanitarian Coordinator for the Occupied Palestinian Territory, on famine in Gaza | United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs - Occupied Pal...

Today’s confirmation of famine in Gaza governorate isn’t just another wake-up call. It is the blaring siren after months of alarms, and it’s a signal of what may soon engulf other parts of the Strip.

lots of medical workers familiar with refeeding syndrome, so no one accidentally dies of suddenly getting a full meal, too:

i just explained that if i read the same sartre quote you've already posted five times or whatever in standard black-on-white print, printed in those colors in that text size against that background it would literally trigger the vestibular migraines i already get inconveniently frequently.

meave (sumud, sister) @meave.bsky.social · 10d

wow that is eye-searing. if i had to look at it long enough to read it, it'd trigger a migraine.

now, don't get tricked; the real keyah alert is to check to see thatt people are reading about this white lady's (and her azerbaijani boss's) real and serious fuck-ups that inarguably have made the food and shelterr situation in Gaza worse, NOT YELL ABOUT THE DOGS.

the dogs are the minor crime.

don’t ask me why but i started watching “the first 54 years,” (all mograbi’s work is available on his site, avimograbi.org), which he made in partnership with breakingthesilence.org.il; maybe i thought it’d be cathartic?

but none of the guys interviewed seemed sorry. some were proud? it was gross

imagine if israel had just—let fidaa bring all her children with her when she first qualified for medical evacuation. instead, she suffers. everything israel does to gaza is so clearly genocidal (why must people return after treatment?), you have to be made of steel to keep going

i was just…shown a CBS broadcast that implied the iof had ceased-firing, which made me want to scream, seeing as how they bombed the hell out of khan yunis today, in addition to gaza city.

to avoid crying, i made @maratan-ukhraa.bsky.social this "comic" (transl. in alt text)
bit.ly/help-mohamed

الأحوان شتلاند في
"العام المقبل في بئر السبع"

three shetland lambs stand together on a very gentle grass-covered slope. From right, they are dark brown, medium brown and white, and white with a dark nose. the sun is low in the sky and coming from behind them.

each lamb has a text balloon. the smallest, brownest sheep says,
أخي، هل سنذوق
عشب النقب
الحلو مرة أخرى؟
the middle sheep, agreeing, continues:
نعم، هل
سيأخذنا الراعي في الربيع؟

and the largest, all-white sheep says,
أيها الإخوة، يوماً ما سنتمكن من تذوق كل أعشاب فلسطين الحرة
الحلوة.
he also has a little heart with the palestinian flag filled in. The photographer's credit الصورة: كارين روم is in the bottom right corner.

translation:
The Shetland Brothers in
"Next Year in Bi'r as-Sab`"

first lamb: "Brother, shall we taste the sweet grass of the Negev again?"
second lamb: "Yes, shall the shepherd take us in the spring?”
third lamb: "“Brothers, one day we shall be able to taste all the sweet grasses of free Palestine."

most platforms do, don't they? like, "don't be a neo-nazi, here or in your personal life, we do not serve neo-nazis at this bar," to use that old horse (or whatever it's called i can't remember)

do you remember how old you were when you realized the U.S. had no business participating in “peace treaties” between any state/non-state actors?

i was in my late teens, but i can’t remember if i was reading about the treaty of paris at school, or something was happening in the world.

meave (sumud, sister) @meave.bsky.social · 12d

ha ha i’m an idiot, of course they started slaughtering children first.

when’s he gonna Truth™️ a little Henry II already?
