The Palestinian Red Crescent Society: “Despite the occupation's threats to shell; the decision has been made. We did and will not leave. Our medics will carry on their humanitarian duties. We won’t leave people face death alone.”

Something very sad and disturbing that I didn't quite appreciate is how many Americans are actively nostalgic for the moral clarity they feel they experienced in the immediate aftermath of 9/11

I’ve been thinking about this and it’s a quietly radicalizing realization that rapacious profit seeking has hollowed out so much of what’s fun and community enhancing in our society. So many things just stopped existing because they don’t return 300% to awful people.
I'm 38 years old and I think this is the first time in my internet-using life that there's just, like, nothing fun to do online anymore. I open a web browser and just sit there with nowhere to go.

Listen to him openly ADMIT that corporations want to create mass insecurity, starvation, and poverty in order to create an obedient working class. The owning class is so mask-off that they are casually saying these things in front of huge audiences.
We’re seeing a surge in worker power globally, but that upsets some people. This businessman, speaking at a “property summit,” is going viral for saying: “We need to see pain in the economy. We need to remind people that they work for the employer, not the other way around.”

Imagine having this type of human power in the world and companies would rather make something with a fraction of its beauty because it's cheaper.
James Baxter, the king of animation. In this type of 2D animation, there is no “camera” like in 3D animation, just pencil drawings on paper. This means drawing the character to change perspective as the environment is spinning to give the illusion of a camera movement. #lionking

i'm not going to link any of them here, for a variety of reasons, but please be aware of what is probably the deadliest AI scam i've ever heard of: plant and fungi foraging guide books. the authors are invented, their credentials are invented, and their species IDs will kill you

The Dunes here are amazing, and they're how I learned about geomorphology, which is the study of movement landforms. We've had a great trip

It occurs to me “The West” never really threw off feudalism. The king makers just became bankers instead of popes or cardinals. We still have dynasties and we still have an aristocracy that is essentially above the law. We just call them CEOs now.

What’s so funny about all this to me is what i found so upsetting in graduate school: we’ve known how to stop recessions since the 1940s, the people in charge of doing so usually just find it morally distasteful to do what is necessary to stop them (Give People Money).
This is such an incredible chart
