trying to remind myself of the lesson i thought i had learned last week looking at how trees bend over towards waterways

for a small fee, I will go to your enemy’s writing workshop and say “but who is the ‘you’ in this poem?”

collection replaces history with classification. & there's a twofold repatriation involved here. the museum produces everything strange as familiar and converts everything familiar into the strange and contingent. museums are literally factories. technologies of enforced meaning.

@spiiriit_na @AREdotNA drop me an email then :)

How to save fireflies from what the comments are saying: - protect natural habitats of bugs, like tall grass, leaf piles, native plant species, rotting wood, etc - go easy on pesticides, mowing, etc - push for local legislation that prioritises unmanaged land and wild parks - turn off outdoor lights in the evenings fws.gov/story/save-fir…

Disabled people tend to be the most prepared & organized for disasters bc they know once everything collapses they will be left behind to fend for themselves. Stop abandoning disabled people, they are your comrades, organize alongside them- & not just when its convenient for you

Maskbloc latam is working on getting N95 respirators to Cuba! You can help them by donating to their PayPal: ADSinternacional You can also go to maskbloc.org and reach out there, they are also in need of funds to care for their local vulnerable community members ❤️‍🩹

Running from an active shooter only to be killed by an active shooter in uniform. I hate it here so much.

Wish there were respirators to accompany all the lovely keffiyeh, so we're not bringing a metal tube full of disease to an already impoverished country with an overloaded under-resourced health care system. But alas.

The first victims of war are always disabled people. Thousands of Cuban dialysis patients are going to die because hemodialysis needs electricity. This, too is a genocide

Here's what a few hours in the life of Lebanon's National Lifeline for Suicide Prevention (1564) sound like during #war time: - A 23-year-old displaced mother from South Lebanon (Khyem) calling from inside a car in Saida (now known as the transit city) - where she is living with her 3 young children because shelters are full. - An 88-year-old man displaced from Southern #Beirut calling to ask for basic assistance - A young man calling from Southern Beirut, currently under attack, calling because he and his mother had nowhere safe to go. - Another caller described feeling “مخنوق” — suffocated by the density, the noise, the uncertainty created by war. And in the middle of all of this: - A 16-year-old girl who attempted suicide - A 23-year-old struggling with addiction after a suicide attempt yesterday - A mother with cancer caring for a child with epilepsy while seeking help for her suicidal daughter - A man who was about to end his life with shattered glass before picking up the phone This is the daily reality of answering Lebanon’s National Lifeline (1564), where every call reflects the collision of our crises: war, displacement, poverty, chronic illness, addiction, and the silent toll on mental health. In contexts like #Lebanon, a crisis hotline is much more than an emotional support line. It becomes a first point of access to the entire health and social protection system. In a single shift today, our team provided: - suicide intervention and safety planning - emotional support during acute distress - referrals for psychiatric care and medication - shelter and humanitarian assistance referrals - support for displaced families - guidance for parents responding to suicide attempts - connection to emergency services and NGOs Behind each call is a trained responder, a volunteer, holding space for someone who may have nowhere else to turn, while silently living many of the same struggles themselves. In times of war, mental health emergencies do not pause. They multiply, and set the stage for the long term psychological consequences that follow conflict. Lebanon’s National Lifeline continues to operate 24/7, responding to hundreds of calls each month from people facing the most difficult moments of their lives. Every call our volunteers answer, is a proof of why this Lifeline is essential to our national infrastructure, and must be protected and sustained.

our children have to be so wise and aware of the fate of our people when other children are playing carelessly. they know about martyrdom from a young age because this is what the West has decided should be normal for our people of every generation.
