@JerseyNoahx Thanks for sharing this and for caretaking Sam's dignity. I sent you a dm.

I talked to one of Sam Nordquist's close friends today and asked if she had any photos of Sam that he loved of himself or that he felt cute and confident in when he saw himself back. Here is one of the photos she sent:
Jersey Noah@JerseyNoahx
Uplift the photos of Sam that he took of himself, uplift the words of the ppl who knew and loved him and described him as the type of man who would take the shirt off his back if someone needed it. Honor Sam Nordquist in the ways he deserves— see & respect him for the man he was

Great to see that politicians who have openly opposed genocide funded and armed by the US, have been re-elected in the US. Supporting an arms embargo and sanctions on Israel is politically favourable.

@JaneyGodley Wishing you all the love and comfort - what a tremendous loss. I will remember her fondly.

Earlier this morning Janey passed away in her sleep. Her family were with her.
The love and support from all her friends and fans during this cancer journey brought her enormous joy. It has also been a huge comfort to us, her family and close friends, thank you.

British television shows me I am not alone in my fantasy of triumphantly solving a logic puzzle before a rapt audience.

Atlantic Avenue subway station. "Third rail" is apparently the cable that supplies electricity to the subway system. Couldn't find out more about this logo or when it is from but I am obsessed with its maximalism and would love to know the meanings of the icons.

@MoiraDonegan Moira, I saw The Wild Robot last night after reading your review and I'm positive it influenced the way I saw the film's framing of motherhood. I'd be really curious what you think of it.

Great review - struck by this quote from the book: “How would ideas endure without anyone to examine, share, and transmit them?”
Not even hiding the fact that they see women as consumer producers.
Moira Donegan@MoiraDonegan
In the new @bookforum, I wrote about pro-natalism, the liberals who love it, and the rise of the childless woman as a symbol of decadence & object of contempt that stands in for a meaningful reckoning with motherhood's contradictions. bookforum.com/print/3102/bab…

The reason the headline sounds like a plot of a film is because it's a fictional headline
The archaeologists targeted the region for intensive lidar survey and located a site. That's not an accident, that's standard research. And I'd bet locals knew about it too

Many of us focus on Palestinian children—and to a lesser extent Palestinian women—but Palestinian men have been dehumanised like no other group in Palestine. They have been killed, detained, tortured, raped, and treated like terrorists. It's beyond horrifying.
Yipeng Ge 葛义朋@yipengGe
Palestinian men and boys deserve everything. They deserve to be humanized. They deserve freedom and liberation. They deserve protection and safety. They deserve to have their stories told and shared. They deserve life and love. We owe them everything.
