Relief for Rafah is a community kitchen in Rafah that is buying food and water in bulk and distributing it for free. They need funding to continue supplying the people of Mawasi al-Qarara refugee camp with water.
You can help by donating here.
Donations have gotten extremely slow. The people at this camp still need water!

I feel like "trump wants to throw away literal dinosaur fossils" would really turn heads if we actually had a functional opposition party in this country to get messages out, but I guess I'll just have to get a paint pen and write it on my car. fine, I'll do it.
Trump and friends are trying to get rid of IMLS (Institute of Museum and Library Science, USA Federal agency). Everyone is on leave/in admin limbo while the DOGE kids do whatever and lock people out of their emails. Already-awarded federal grants (that's how I get paid) for museums and libraries are now being terminated early via executive order. Museums are already closing (to be fair it has been bad for decades) and a lot of large and delicate fossil material will need new homes with space and funding, which almost no one has. It's bad. I don't know what to do except to keep working and occasionally scream into the internet.
Not trying to be a bummer, but this is pretty much the only thing anyone at my job can think about right now. I can only speak for museums, but specimens need periodical tending or they will decay or get lost. Grant funding is how we do everything: it's how temporary workers get paid, how we get access to subscription-based software, and it's how we buy new label paper for cripes' sake. We are still fighting, but everyone is honestly loopy with stress all the time now. People should know what they are destroying.
The staff of the Institute of Museum and Library Services was placed on administrative leave Monday morning, following a meeting between IML
You want to call your House rep now and tell them Trump needs to be impeached immediately for defying a Supreme Court order (re: Kilmar Abrego Garcia), which functionally voids our constitution and means no one in America has rights anymore.
I am not exaggerating.
As of now, anybody can be disappeared, no due process, no recourse. Trump is openly disregarding a Supreme Court order and says he’ll send US citizens to El Salvador.
This is not a drill.
Call your House rep and tell them they must impeach. Tell them if they cannot bring themselves to impeach, they must resign. A more open and shut case to impeach is not possible. Trump and his administration are saying openly, in public, that anybody can be kidnapped by ICE, even in error, and disappeared permanently.
Call your senators, too, and tell them to support impeachment (it goes to them once it passes a majority House vote).
Find your representatives. Learn how to find and connect with them. Stay informed about their bills, committees, and contributions.
"Hello, my name is _______ and I am a constituent from _______. My address is ________.
I am reaching out today to urge Representative ______ to call for the impeachment of President Trump due to his refusal to comply with the Supreme Court's April 10th decision regarding Kilmar Abrego Garcia, who was unlawfully deported and has been charged with no crime. As Justice Sotomayor stated, this inaction implies the government's ability to 'deport and incarcerate any person, including U.S. citizens, without legal consequence, so long as it does so before a court can intervene.' This precedent is unconstitutional, highly illegal, and grounds for impeachment. Every individual, regardless of immigration status, must be guaranteed a right to due process.
Representative _____, I urge you to stand on the right side of history today by calling for President Trump's impeachment. This administration can not be allowed to continue unilaterally defying the checks and balances that are intrinsic to our government."
You can also find your representative and senators and their phone numbers on https://5calls.org/
Please don't be afraid of calling. Your job would just be to be a data point, not to sound perfect. Here's some info on why calling is effective.
After cancelling nearly all NIH projects studying transgender health, Trump’s team instructs the US biomedical agency to study negative cons
>censors all existing data on trans healthcare
>orders a study
I'm sure this will be completely unbiased
Hey.
Hey.
Hey.
They are targeting adults.
US people:
Create a backup plan for access to HRT. Now.
Prepare in advance, stockpile what you legally (or in minecraft) can, find diy that you trust.
They are going to take your medically required medication from you. This study is expected to start in about six months, and will likely be bullshit that only takes a couple months after that. There is still time.
However, I would predict an almost guarantee of a major federal legal restriction on adult HRT access in the 6mo-1yr from now range. I don't want any of the bullshit I got at the time of the election about "fearmongering". I stand by everything I said then.

37 people were illegally detained in Bellingham, Washington for the ‘crime’ of speaking Spanish. This is so fucking inhumane and cruel
Response to ICE Arrest of 37 Community Members – RUN
⬆️ racial unity now is matching funds for the detainees and their families. please help if you can.
it's shameful how long i had to look to find an article covering this story that gives more information besides saying "37 undocumented workers were arrested wednesday." cascadia news and the AP were the only sources i found that include any journalism whatsoever beyond the police report.
Hey, this is local for me. It would mean a lot if you could help out even a little bit.
Trump's desire to get Greenland is a direct attack on indigenous lands and it needs to be framed this way a lot more. Greenlandic Inuit make up about 90% of Greenland's population; they're frequently under attack from Denmark's government and now they're facing the US president threatening war just to tear their lands apart.
Under attack from the danish government??????
Elaborate on that?
Greenlandic Inuit face many of the same issues that other indigenous groups face under colonialist powers (and Denmark IS a colonialist power), such as loss of language and cultural identity, forced displacement, extremely high poverty and suicide rates, attacks on their lands for its natural resources, and ongoing battles for sovereignty.
Current battles for Greenlandic Inuit involve trying to get full control over mining rights in Greenland, reviving cultural practices like traditional fishing, and keeping custody of their children. Greenlandic Inuit parents face Danish-centered parenting tests, often in Danish which many of those parents can't speak and based around Danish parenting styles, and Inuit children are disproportionately removed from their families and placed in Danish households. Which is a form of cultural genocide for anyone who isn't aware.
Literally sobbing. A judge, a US judge defended us. A judge brought up intersex people, uaing the term intersex, to *defend* us by not allowing our erasure. I'm having a lot of feelings right now
Somebody get Judge Reyes a bodyguard and some armor plates for under robes during court.
I'm serious, we need to protect every friend we have right now.
being so fr when I say that transmisogyny has put feminism back like 50 years
what i thought we had distanced ourselves from was the reduction of women to vaginas and wombs and the ability to bear children. i thought we had progressed past ‘dresses are for women and pants are for men.’ i thought we progressed past the idea that someone is less of a woman if she does not adhere strictly to beauty standards. i thought we progressed past the idea that naturally being comfortable adhering to highly feminine standards is vulgar. but i (sarcastically) guess no one could have predicted that trans-exclusive feminism would be the downfall of all the progress we’ve made
“We’re in danger of losing what the entire second wave of feminism, what the entire second wave of women’s liberation was built on, and that was ‘Biology is not destiny’. ‘One is not born a woman,’ Simone de Beauvoir said, ‘one becomes one’. Now there’s some place where transsexual women and other women intersect. Biological determinism has been used for centuries as a weapon against women, in order to justify a second-class and oppressed status. How on Earth, then, are you going to pick up the weapon of biological determinism and use it to liberate yourself? It’s a reactionary tool.”
— Quote by Leslie Feinberg, from TransSisters: The Journal of Transsexual Feminism, issue 7, volume 1. 1995.

Quietly losing my mind over the fact that Elon Musk has straight up orchestrated a coup of our executive branch and like....I don't even know what, if any, system we have in place to fix this. Like... He's just taken control of the money and locked out the actual appointed officials. What the fuck.
Nazis are taking over my government, and like, not even just the Nazis we fucking elected! And I'm...making hamburgers? Because somebody has to make dinner? I just feel completely unhinged.
I think that's how random civillians generally feel in these situations. Someone's gotta make dinner.
If you're wondering, there is plenty to be done about it, and plenty being done about it already, even if it's not happening instantly in a way you can perceive.
Yes. Let me break it down for you.
Hey everyone, I know it's going to be a busy day for a lot of people, but Google enrolled everyone over 18 into their AI program automatically.
If you have a google account, first go to gemini.google.com/extensions and turn everything off.
Then you need to go to myactivity.google.com/product/gemini and turn off all Gemini activity tracking. You do have to do them in that order to make sure it works.
Honestly, I'm not sure how long this will last, but this should keep Gemini off your projects for a bit.
I saw this over on bluesky and figured it would be good to spread on here. It only takes a few minutes to do.
Writers: It's asking to read your Google Docs and be able to 'summarize' things from them and such things. I just turned all mine off.
im glad that post about the Iraq war is now going around with an addendum because "nobody knew why it happened" is just the most patently incorrect thing on earth. they knew back in 2003 and it was hard to not know if you listened to any of the anti bush sentiment from the era lol.
secondary point but it's also wild to admit you're teaching a class of undergrads about a subject you have less of a grasp on than children who made newgrounds anti bush flash cartoons in the mid aughts
You can read the PNAC letter that laid it all out.
http://www.militarist-monitor.org/images/uploads/PNAC_Letter_to_President_Clinton_on_Iraq.pdf
the safety of American troops in the region, of our friends and allies like Israel and the moderate Arab states, and a significant portion of the world’s supply of oil will all be put at hazard.
The reasons were freedom of attack from American military installations, Israel, US-aligned monarchies in SW Asia and oil.
GW Bush, Joe Biden, and Hillary Clinton were fully aligned on this and helped the invasion happen.
Biden was there Chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee in 2002-2003 and ensured that only pro-invasion witnesses were welcome.
It was a bipartisan exercise in American power to secure further American power and they fully intended to continue the slaughter into Iran.
None of this is a mystery, and fuck that "teacher" for lying about that.
Additionally, this was a time when a number of bloggers were being invited into Serious outlets like the NYT and Washington Post. The #1 qualification to get such an invitation was to have been in favor of slaughtering Iraqis. E.g. being wrong about Iraq was effectively a job requirement. That was the crop including Matt Yglesias, Ezra Klein, and Megan McArdle.

these are a mandatory part of every windows install for me. been using them for years and it's such a lifesaver
Because this has mostly been talked about with Windows 11, heads-up that this installed itself on every Windows 10 computer in our house with this week's update.
