I’m sharing a Palestinian account every day and today is Hassan. Hassan had a private timber workshop before this. It was destroyed and so was his home and car. He is now living in a tent with his family including his children Joud, 8 and Ivana, 4. He really wants to rebuild his home ❤️

CNN did not include this fact in their story about AT&T ending diversity initiatives, but they should have. we should have to reckon with the fact that AT&T has chosen to do today what a neo-nazi organization tried to force them to do 40 years ago. the nazis don't even have to ask anymore.

A long overdue thread with Palestinian women, starting with Fatima Hassouna as per her own request.

A reminder:
All eyes on Palestine.
All eyes on Gaza.
The most important thing right now is keeping a sister and her loved ones alive.
Remember to follow, support, and amplify internal voices.

Fatima Hassouna (1999-2025) was a Palestinian photojournalist who documented civilian life during the Gaza Holocaust.
She gained international recognition for the documentary film Put Your Soul on Your Hand and Walk.
She and her family were murdered by the IDF.
"If I die, I want a loud death".

One of the things I offer to estate planning clients is “Preserving Footprints”.
Clients can record their stories and memories, pass down recipes, I even had one who wanted to include painting.
And then it gets passed to beneficiaries.

And on a related note:
Y’all…write your recipes down permanently somewhere.
Cookbooks…journals…Post-It notes…back of napkins…ANYWHERE.
Hell, in this digital age, record some accompanying videos, too.
I promise you: your cooking means the world to someone that they wanna take with them forever.

I do have one personal somber moment this Thanksgiving.
Before my mom passed, I wanted to get from her two recipes very important to me:
-Tea Cakes
-Broccoli & Cheese Casserole
Unfortunately, the recipes died w/ her…
And all I have are memories of their taste for me to recreate from scratch.

Thread but also just don't tell Paypal anything. No "what is this for" you both know what it's for. If you send a friend some money for dinner or something and you say "for friday night", even odds they get banned as a sex worker.
PayPal has rolled out a new "feature" that prompts you to leave feedback about an artist that you've commissioned via invoice.
Whatever you do, DO NOT fill this out! To quote Admiral Ackbar, "IT'S A TRAP!!!" It is meant to misguide you.

This was a battle of optics which Mamdani won resoundingly. If you think this was some kind of victory for "normalising fascism" or whatever, it's worth noting that MAGA influencers are crashing out about this.
*They* don't think it's a Trump victory. Don't pretend it is on their behalf.

if you guys are ditching mamdani after he managed to throw the entire fucking republican party into complete total chaos and disarray while they rip each other apart, got trump to admit he's a fascist on-screen, and might've got him to leave ny alone for now with one meeting....... yall, come on
