Just as the lies were vomited, just as the congresspeople frequently applauded, an air strike killed six people in my city of Beit Lahia. A school principal I worked with briefly was murdered. His name is Darwish Al-Ghirbawi. He was murdered in front of his house with his son, also a teacher, and other neighbors. You should be ashamed of inviting a war criminal, of receiving him, of listening to him, and worse of applauding his sheer lies. I’m angry more than ever.

ppl accusing this woman of killing her husband with COVID bc they had a wedding when he was dying of cancer… what if i said some ppl’s politics re: COVID are rooted not in sincere empathy and collective care but in a weird sanctimonious purity culture. what then
Ashley Reese@offbeatorbit

…the mesothelioma recurrence killed him, not the wedding we had when we got news that the mesothelioma recurrence was going to kill him.

Tim Bender, CEO of Hooded Horse, with a fantastic response to someone saying “Manor Lords is a pretty interesting case-study in the pitfalls of Early Access”. I didn’t think Hooded Horse could get any cooler but here we are 👑

This undercounting—deliberate undercounting as censorship and disinformation—is precisely how it played out (and is still in effect) in the Sri Lankan genocide as well. These are well-worn and much-bloodied techniques. Being able to recognize them is essential.
Omar Sakr@omarsakrpoet

We all know that the confirmed figure of Palestinians killed so far is a gross undercount given the scale of destruction and bombing and mass killings. This projection of over 193,000 is far more likely. electronicintifada.net/content/math-p…

using this juncture in history not to slow down an extinction event, but instead to accelerate it, in service of building machines whose primary purpose is to render humans obsolete. silicon valley makes sense as a grand death drive project, a compulsion towards self annihilation

Notions of "objectivity" in video game discourse remain an absolute scourge. Why on earth would you not "recommend" a game you think is amazing?
Cryptmaster@thecryptmaster

Charming sentiment but rather amusingly this review did in fact drop us to 95%, so almost out of Overwhelmingly Positive. Unless you have a game which sells a LOT of copies, which unfortunately we don't, one review certainly can make a difference...

Jessica Wick is one of my dearest friends; she co-founded Goblin Fruit with me, & is very much family. She lost her mother last month, & it's been harrowing to witness all the ways in which vicious systems essentially paywall the right to grieve.
CSECooney ducks in from time to time.@csecooney

On behalf of @tithenai, @WriteTeachPlay, @omgjulia & myself, we thank you for boosting this signal. In gratitude, many artists, poets & writers contributed to a gift anthology for whoever donates. A Gift in a Time of Grief for Jessica and Jeremy Wick gofund.me/e45e1f38

Please engage with the work done by @wawog_now, by @bookworkers4pal, and by @PoetsGaza. If you haven’t already, please seek out these groups and others like them. They are where the bloodied heart of literature is in this hour, and they need you.
