That’s how to start your day.❤️

there is a MASSIVE irruption of sea angels (aka naked sea butterflies) happening right now spanning from long island to cape cod — and probably beyond‼️‼️ check your local marinas, boat basins, inlets, and tide pools, and log your finds on @inaturalist!

Something dangerous is happening in Gaza. Over the past months, we have been noticing a clear rise in cancer cases, especially breast and uterine cancers. But this is not just about disease. This is about a system collapsing around patients, leaving them with nowhere to go. Two days ago, a woman came to our clinic. F.J. 32 years old. We suspected masses in both of her breasts, different sizes. The ultrasound confirmed it. What remained was the biopsy, the one step that could define her future. It costs 800 Shikel = 250$ For most people, this is a medical step. But for her, it is a decision between life and nothing. She lives in a tent. Her husband is injured in both legs, with metal plates, and depends on ongoing physiotherapy, which we provide at the clinic. They have nothing left. For them, this amount is impossible. In a place like this, illness is not just painful. It is financially selective. Sometimes, death becomes the cheaper option. In cases like this, I usually try to find a way. I contacted a colleague who works with an international medical program, a program that used to cover the costs of more than 100 patients every month. I asked him to add her case urgently. He paused,then he told me: “The program stopped… a few days ago.” Why? Because the organization discovered fraud and theft by a private hospital that had been receiving more than half a million dollars every month for multiple projects (including pathology services). Because of greed, thousands of patients are now left without care. As if this people needed more suffering. As if it was not enough to lose homes, safety, dignity. Now even their illness.. is being traded. And this is only one story. How many women are now sitting in tents, feeling a lump in their body, and waiting? Waiting without diagnosis. Waiting without treatment. Waiting for pain to become something irreversible. How many will lose their chance at early treatment? How many will reach hospitals only when it is too late? How many will live with permanent disability, because something simple was delayed? And even when treatment exists outside Gaza, patients cannot reach it. Because the Israeli army continues to restrict and block medical evacuations. People who could be treated, are trapped. Cancer patients. Children. The wounded. Waiting for permission that may never come. This is not one failure. This is a chain of failures. A siege that limits medicine. A system that collapses. Corruption that steals what little remains. And in the middle of it all patients .. Waiting. This is not a story you will see on most news channels. Because it does not fit a narrative. But this is our reality: A place where people are left in tents, left in poverty, left in hunger, left under siege, and now .. left to die from diseases this war has helped create. We may be able to help this one woman. We may find a way for her. But the question that does not leave me is this: How many others will never reach us? How many names will we never hear? And how many lives will quietly disappear because no one was there to pay the cost? #WoundedGaza

Not many know this because there’s no dive tourism, but the Persian Gulf is full of coral — not just any coral, but heat-tolerant genotypes biologists use in reef restoration. It’s home to over 700 fish species and the world’s second largest population of dugongs. Say a prayer.

I can see my home from here. I remember how all the trees got sick and died after the 2006 war. The grapevines never grew back. In 2024, the zionist shelled the youngest fig tree we had planted. In 2026 they covered all the land with white phosphorus. It will be in everything now

Plankton chokes to death on microfibres. Just like whales, seabirds choke to death on large plastic items, microfibres from our clothing kill the plankton. @zeiss_micro @natgeo
