I wonder if the lesson that when someone tries to pay you in blood money you fucking refuse will sink in from this experience.

Imagine living in Gaza.
Trying to survive while USA-made bombs destroy your very vegetable markets.

You think your job market sucks now?
These autocrats are rolling out an AI-filled job market.
Flattening Gaza is just a tactic.

Insurance companies of any kind are not big on paying to bail out your crime, because they're usually too busy committing their own crimes.

Using AI is ceding control of the creative process not to a team of artists you might not understand like VFX but to a machine owned by a fucking tech company. Oh and the machine drinks all your water, power, and art as fuel.

“Marwan’s donations included sponsorship of an orphan in Palestine. And yet, some thirty years later, the government still chooses to wrongfully penalize Marwan for these ordinary acts of charity—acts which he considers obligatory to his faith.”

Trump's ICE Has Arrested a Pillar of the Dallas Muslim Community. I Grew Up Hearing His Calls for Compassion.

When I heard Marwan Marouf had been swept up in connection with decades-old charitable donations, my mind went to his gentle voice we sometimes had to strain to hear at the mosque.

Very sorry about the abrupt end to the stream tonight - the fire alarm started going and so I’ve evacuated. I doubt anything will come of it but at the very least I’m out and safe. Will update once it’s all clear. Again, very sorry about this, especially to the BPSR team.

According the victim's attorney, body camera footage captured the officer saying, “Do something, bitch,” before leaping out of the car and shooting her multiple times. Another officer asked, “Hey, what happened?” The first pointed to his camera, “Hey, don’t speak. You’re good.”
