Wild how many of you who think you’d have hidden Anne Frank and Harriet Tubman won’t even publicly say the word “ceasefire” 7 months into a genocide of mostly children.

Two big takeaways:

1) More unexploded missiles and bombs have fallen in Gaza than anywhere in the world since at least the Second World War.

2) Ukrainian frontline is 600 mi long, and Gaza frontline is 25 mi long. There’s more rubble—37m tons—in Gaza than in Ukraine.

I had to double take when I saw that BBC News (UK) is finally reporting Israeli war crimes after *checks notes* over six months of continual war crimes

My ex introduced me to the idea of 'slow violence' by sharing Thom Davies article to me. I wonder if anyone has ever written on warming/increasing number of catastrophic typhoons and slow violence in the Philippines? (types in the search engine)

While the media and University admins focus on the 'tone' of the student protests in the US- this is what's happening every single day to children in Gaza. They are being forcefully starved into malnutrition, illness and death.

Disability benefit cuts that are expected to affect more than 450,000 people by 2029 will only lead to 15,400 more people finding paid work, according to official forecasts

That's about three percent of the number of people affected.

By me, for Big Issue bigissue.com/news/social-ju…
