Journalist Linda Tirado was shot in the eye with a "nonlethal" bullet during the George Floyd protests in 2020. She lost the eye and suffered TBI and is now dying of her injuries. Hospice care is expensive. Please contribute if you can:

Feels like if you're repeatedly firing any number of mass casualty weapons into areas packed with civilians you've tidily answered any questions about what your intentions were.

Under the pretext of "protecting archaeological sites", and contrary to the Oslo accords, the Israeli govt effectively revoked Palestinian planning in Area B (22% of the West Bank). Israel already has full planning control over Area C (60%), leaving Palestinians with only 18% of West Bank (Area A).

Reminder that Aaron Swartz was facing 35 years in prison and financial devastation for trying to programmatically download and open the contents of JSTOR, which led to him taking his own life. But OpenAI is going to scrape all of academia and make billions by plagiarizing it.

i think the mistake a lot of people make is thinking that fighting climate chaos is a popular position. i don't think it actually is the US/Canada/UK etc. maybe it is in the abstract but the second anything becomes inconvenient (e.g. reducing usage of cars) people will fight it
