Just stumbled on this Anti-Slavery Constitutional Amendment Picture, ca. 1865. Thought today was a great day to share an image of white men abolishing slavery arranged in a shape Georgia O'Keefe would recognize. Happy 4th! Burn the white supremacist heteropatriarchy! npg.si.edu/object/npg_N...

Just a reminder that today is a good day to pick a family or org in Gaza to help promote- Operation Olive Branch has a whole spreadsheet full of vetted fundraisers to choose from- some people want to evacuate, some people want to rebuild, some are providing aid on the ground linktr.ee/opolivebranch

Look. I care about climate change a lot. I'm close to a single-issue voter on the subject! But we have GOT to stop worrying about what are, in the scheme of things, rounding errors. I hate, hate, hate this kind of personal-responsibility climate stuff, it's deeply counterproductive.

Books take a lot of resources to make. Digital readers do, too. What's the more sustainable option? The answer isn't straightforward.

“Part of the problem is that items critical for hospitals are banned by Israel which says they can be used by Hamas for military purposes. The list of items it considers dual-use include some water disinfection materials.”

Volunteer U.S. docs in Rafah hospital say they've never seen a worse health crisiswww.npr.org Because of the Israeli operation, they lack the most basic supplies and must face the decision whether to let one patient die to save another. They also say malnutrition is contributing to deaths.

No proof was ever given to justify the absurd lie that Al Shifa Hospital was Hamas’ “command and control center”—a “story” that ran for months in Western rags—but now that THREE mass graves have been uncovered on its grounds, the media have suddenly lost interest in the hospital!

The wonderful Rabbi Avigail Halpern writes: “The image of people frantically fleeing, attempting to bring as much food as they can carry while under the shadow of an empire's military assault is an essential part of the Pesach narrative.” So yeah. First post. Link to her full piece there.

A fossil fuel phase-out "requires international cooperation to restrict the supply of fossil fuels, including coal, oil and gas. This won’t be easy, but it is possible… The road towards phasing out fossil fuels will likely be long and bumpy, but the transition must start soon”

Oil bosses call phasing out fossil fuels a ‘fantasy’ – but an international agreement is plausibletheconversation.com While some countries are more likely than others to sign an international agreement to phase out fossil fuels, measures to tackle fossil fuel demand by adding a higher carbon price are essential.

“This is not only an attack against WCK, this is an attack on humanitarian organizations showing up in the most dire of situations where food is being used as a weapon of war,” World Central Kitchen CEO Erin Gore said in a statement. “This is unforgivable.”

The agrochemical and petrochemical industries dump chemicals in the water all the time, and in this case killing ~800k fish. Meanwhile, scientists have a hard time getting permits to put a little alkalinity in the water to research CO₂ removal (CDR).

Much respect to the Jewish community for putting on full display the meaning of Purim pushing on the behavior of the State of Israel

Truah, the rabbis for human rights org, does a Purim spoof issue every year where they troll the J community and this year's is SENDING ME Haven't read it all yet but here's a chefskiss sample

@theradr.bsky.social Hi Rabbi Ruttenberg, As promised from the Book of Faces. I saved the document to my Google Drive. drive.google.com/file/d/1CH9r.... I remember the essay for the anthology being tighter. But love “play” (not unlike Sabbath) as an antidote to empire.

It is really frustrating to hear people call "doomers" those who see, in the scientific evidence a trajectory that does not predict human survival. Do the "doomers" then have license to call "romantics" those who still tout hope? Don't we have to do this together recognizing science can know both?
