This!

A high risk of famine persists across #Gaza as long as the conflict continues. 1 in 5 people in Gaza experience an extreme lack of food. Almost all people in the Strip face high levels of acute food insecurity. The latest @theIPCinfo analysis notes that the devastation brought about by the hostilities continues to be indescribable. Only an end to the hostilities and immediate, unimpeded and sustained humanitarian access can reduce the risk of a famine occurring in the Gaza Strip. The people of Gaza need peace now.

Over 10 000 people need to be evacuated out of #Gaza for medical care, including for trauma-related injuries, cancer, heart, mental health and other conditions.

Such an inspiring and warm leader. What a privilege to have him at @UMassChan

Every adult I know personally had difficulty sleeping last night after the living nightmare of #RafahOnFıre Haunted by headless scorched children and babies. Or in my case, haunted by the deep sickness in the western media and political class which left them cold as #Gaza burned...

Can we stop the euphemisms already? ft.com/content/eeb22b…

🚨🇪🇸🇵🇸 BREAKING: SPAIN officially recognizes PALESTINIAN STATEHOOD.

My heart is broken💔: As friends & family know, my wife was pregnant with our 2nd child, & about to begin her 2nd trimester. A few days ago she had severe pains, & bleeding, and had to go to the emergency room. There, it was discovered that our baby no longer had a heartbeat. Devastated doesn't come close to what that feels like. Unfortunately for people like us, because of the current laws in the state of Texas, that was only the beginning of this nightmare. Jess (my wife) had an "incomplete miscarriage", and what needed to happen, what was best for HER, and her health, was to terminate the pregnancy, and get the baby out. The doctor gave her a medication that would move this process along, and sent her home. Where, apparently we would be handling it ourselves. We were told it might take a couple of attempts before it worked. I'll let you decide how you feel about that. After a long, painful night of the equivalent of early labor, the baby was still with her. So, we went back to the Emergency Center to get the 2nd dose. A new doctor was on call. He was an older man. You could hear him in the hallway as he said, "I'm not giving her a pill so she can go home and have an ab*rtion!". Being well aware that our baby no longer had a heartbeat. Then, he came into the room to say, and I quote: "Considering the current stance. I'm not going to prescribe you this pill". Then, just sent us on our way. The "CURRENT STANCE"?! Did he really just say that?! No one should ever have to hear their wife say: "Get this dead baby out of me!". Can you even imagine how that must feel? The pain, and the bleeding continued. So, we decided to go to another hospital, about an hour away. There was a female doctor on call there, and we thought we might have better luck. I should probably mention, the procedure to get the baby out is called a D & C. It's scary, & traumatizing, but sometimes necessary in situations like ours. Especially in emergency circumstances. So we get to the next hospital. They take Jess in, ask her a bunch of questions, do a new scan... confirm that the baby is still there, with no heartbeat, and then disappear... for hours. Only to come back in and keep asking the same questions over and over. It's becoming clear that they're primary concern is NOT my wife's health. Instead, they seem to be worried about the legalities involved. So, they decide it is not "enough of an emergency" to perform the D & C. They do, however, prescribe another, stronger, final dose of the medication for us to try again... at home. So, we go home to try again. Another long day/night of early labor pains. Only to discover my wife UNCONSCIOUS in the bathroom. Having to pick my wife's cold, limp body off of that bathroom floor, not sure if I was about to lose her, is something I will NEVER forget. She had to be rushed to the hospital. By this point she had lost so much blood, and bodily fluid, her body gave out. They were able to stabilize her, give her the fluids she needed, and we came back home yesterday afternoon. We were also able to confirm that our baby was no longer with her. Now, not only do we have to live with the loss of our baby... we have to live with the nightmare of what we just experienced because of political and religious beliefs. MY WIFE'S HEALTH SHOULD HAVE COME FIRST. PERIOD! God knows what mental and emotional damage this has done. If you consider yourself a staunch "pro-lifer" ... 1) You've never been through what we just went through, and 2) You should take a long, hard look in the mirror and reevaluate your reasons for supporting such a cold, barbaric, ignorant point of view. It's not that black & white, and it's never going to be. If you think your "Pray To End Ab*rtion" sign in your yard is "Christian", I suggest you revisit the teachings of Jesus and try again. If you support these laws that make ab*rtion illegal, and result in people being put through what we just were, you should be ashamed of yourself. I've never been so angry, or heartbroken... and the devastation I'm feeling must pale in comparison to what my poor wife is feeling.

Cuántos rechazan el gesto del palco de Rubiales pero callan sobre Hermoso. Buscamos aliados que sumen y no protagonicen. De los que se mojan cuando toca y no cuando conviene. De los que saben pedir perdón lejos del oportunismo. Escribo en @publico_es blogs.publico.es/dominiopublico…

A tyrant - Rubiales ordered RFEF staff to attend his defiant speech on Friday. “This was particularly hurtful, as many of the female members were obliged to sit in the front row,” to suggest they agreed with the remarks made by Rubiales. Staggering. theguardian.com/football/2023/…
