Been spinning up a new project, an online directory of activist groups for (almost) every city in the US, especially for people who want to take steps to resist fascism but might not know where to get started! organize.directory

@FuryReel probably by sea

@hellosami He’s going places

I started teaching 4th graders graphic design at an afterschool program, and this one kid does not engage with any of the material, but he comes into class and furiously googles the Titanic for an hour every week

I'm gonna print this out and frame it

@catgirl4bunny @Aruguhri warresisters.org/war-tax-resist… 👀

@hellosami @Aruguhri 1 in 7 kids in NYC public school are homeless and we're doing this fuckass war that's gonna be a trillion dollars by the end? SMH, why do I even pay taxes??

@job_gyhb @JustinSadur @Aruguhri "Lacking permanent housing" might be more accurate, but even if you just account for students in the city shelter system (42% of the total count), and those living in cars/hotels (5%), that's still around 72,380 students, it's not a much smaller group

@hellosami @JustinSadur @Aruguhri Most of them are “housed” - it’s a much smaller group that are actually living in shelters/cars etc

@JustinSadur @Aruguhri sadly yes cityandstateny.com/policy/2025/10…

@hellosami @Aruguhri One in seven?!?

@Aruguhri it's certainly possible! I don't think they get chromebooks at this age, and something like 1 in 7 children in NYC public schools are unhoused :(

@hellosami I'm guessing he doesn't have access to a computer at home? Idk

@Grungette Honestly, I'm mostly introducing to them the concept of design through things they already see, like look how Mr. Beast uses design in his thumbnails, or like look the colors in Bluey make you feel this way + basic computer tools (and keeping them off the built-in AI tool 😭)

@hellosami What does a fourth grade GD curriculum look like? I’m assuming its focus is teaching a child version of research processes and brief building as a reference for real life. Very curious about your approach to this as I want to whiplash (2014) my own future kid into living my dream

@kelin_online I did ask them to make logos for what they want to be when they grow up and he made one for a "ship building business" 🥺

@hellosami he could make a series of titanic 2-5 posters… manifest

obsessed with “new Estonia ferry wreck nearby” like there is hot Titanic-esque crashes in your area

A video by Iranian Red Crescent showed volunteers searching for injured people in the rubble of a destroyed building in Tehran's Resalat neighborhood

I'm going to Cuba on the Nuestra America Convoy this week and trying to fundraise to help cover expenses and aid I'm bringing including some of these solar panels based on how much I raise! If anyone is able and wants to help would be really appreciated 🫡 venmo.com/u/gerarddalbon

A sandstorm swept through Gaza's tent camps, destroying shelters and sending belongings flying, as thousands of displaced Palestinians struggled to secure their makeshift homes against the strong winds

“The Voice of Hind Rajab” is nominated for best international feature, but actor Motaz Malhees can't attend the #Oscars due to Trump's travel ban on Palestine. “I am not allowed to enter the United States because of my Palestinian citizenship. It hurts. But here is the truth You can block a passport. You cannot block a voice," Malhees writes. "I am Palestinian, and I stand with pride and dignity. My spirit will be with the ‘Voice of Hind Rajab’ that night. Good luck to all of you. Our story is bigger than any barrier, and it will be heard." In December, Trump banned people with Palestinian Authority passports from entering the U.S. alongside those from Burkina Faso, Mali, Niger, South Sudan and Syria. Though Malhees will not be present at the Oscars, the film’s director Ben Hania, who is Tunisian, should be able to attend. variety.com/2026/film/glob…
