This is a hard article to read, but I hope you'll do so. I've spent some time reporting on widespread rape and other sexual violence of Palestinian male and female prisoners by Israeli authorities, and the article is now published. The assault victims were warned not to give speak of what they endured -- they were sometimes told they would be killed or raped if they gave interviews -- but they found the courage to do so. One man described being raped three times in a single day in Israeli prison, the third time after he tried to protest. A young woman said the guards would come in at the beginning of each shift and strip her naked and abuse her. Another reported that she was shown photos of herself being raped and warned they would be released unless she cooperated with Israeli intelligence. Even three children who had been detained told me they had been sexually abused. Look, whatever our position on the Middle East, we should be able to agree on being anti-rape. Sexual assaults were horrific when Israeli women were targeted on Oct. 7, and they're equally horrific when Israeli authorities use them against Palestinians day after day after day. We should be able to find common ground in opposing rape. Here's a gift link to the article: nytimes.com/2026/05/11/opi…

I've seen this attitude before, most virally from @EmmaVigeland, and I just wish these folks would move beyond their own I'm-such-a-good-person narcissism and consider the *future* well-being of both the crazy person in question and whoever they run up against next


who’s the biggest bust of all time?



@_ArollCaraballo He the only one who plays with heart are u fucking blind


@motivatedjoy And talks about Black people the same way he doesn't like Italians to be talked about lmao. I hate the man so much.

The level of courage it takes for these Palestinian victims of rape to talk openly about what is being done to them while in Israeli custody -- in the face of threats that the assaults will be repeated -- is awe inspiring. Kristof even found three children raped in Israeli custody. Cutting off funds is not enough. Only sanctions and prosecutions can bring some semblance of civility back.



talking to young people who wish their jobs were fully remote makes me feel like i’m losing my mind. you’re at the point in life where you could most benefit from in-person relationship and knowledge building … but … you wanna get some errands done,
