on a slightly better note, I would like to thank this girl right here for keeping my tenuous mental and emotional health slightly in check… such a burden for such tiny shoulders 🫡

the stuff going on at columbia campus rn is genuinely incredible
despite mass arrests by NYPD and several students (including rep ilhan omar’s daughter, isra hirsi) being suspended for their participation and having their university identification deactivated, the gaza solidarity encampment is still going strong well into its second day. def recommend following independent reporter talia jane who is taking part and providing live updates. (talia was the first reporter to break aaron bushnell’s self immolation in february; she was one of the reporters he contacted personally prior to the protest.)
thank you so much alexa @shivsblunt for mentioning it…..anyone who wants to contribute to their jail support fund can do so @ bcabolitioncollective on v*nmo. also, if anyone is in the area and available to join (via cssw4palestine on ig):

Birds of Gaza is a project that has children around the world honour the children martyrs of Gaza by creating a bird dedicated to them. These were the birds made to remember the 4 (accounted for) children named Ibtisam martyred in Palestine 🤍
yo… these schools threatening to call the national guard on all these students is so fucking terrifying…

In the ruins of what had been Nasser hospital, the biggest in southern Gaza, Reuters saw emergency workers in white hazmat suits digging corpses out of the ground with hand tools and a digger truck. The emergency services said 73 more bodies had been found at the site in the past day, raising the number found over the week to 283.
Gaza authorities say the bodies recovered so far are from just one of at least three mass graves they have found at the site. "We expect to find another 200 bodies at the same mass grave in the coming two days before we will begin working at the two other cemeteries," Ismail Al-Thawabta, director of the Hamas-run government media office, told Reuters. He accused Israel of carrying out "executions" at the hospital and covering up the crimes by burying bodies with a bulldozer. Israel strongly denies having carried out executions.

daily reminder that boycotting is not a moral stance but a political strategy, so the whole “there’s no ethical consumption under capitalism” argument is not the gotcha you think it is
you can refer to BDS if you’d like a list of companies to focus your efforts on. you can refer to this website if you’d like to become more conscientious about what you’re buying and check for brands/products to avoid.
*please note that i am a palestinian who has been boycotting my entire life. do not try to explain to me in the tags or reblogs or replies what a targeted boycott is or complain about giving up your comfort for something that you (incorrectly) believe does not make an impact. being quiet is free. exercise your right to remain silent today.

Palestinian artist Asmaa Aljueithni shares a photo of the only thing that survived the airstrike that left her Gaza home in ruins: one of her paintings.
to anyone who is still doing mental gymnastics to justify the fact that they don’t support Palestinian statehood… like bro what’s wrong with you?
#people acting like their opinion that Palestinians don’t deserve to die but they also don’t deserve sovereignty#is not as enlightened of an opinion as you think it is#you don’t get cookies for being like genocide is wrong when you are unwilling to stand by Palestinians#but most people aren’t willing to even say the first part so I guess I’m the unreasonable one 🙄#I also don’t agree with the whole ceasefire now and we’ll deal with statehood later attitude that disregards and demeans what ppl are saying#anyway Tuesday thots bc I’ve seen some wild takes on here
