To give context on age, Grace Hopper began computing at 38, completed the first compiler at 46, helped shape COBOL at 53, kept developing COBOL for the Navy in her 70s, retired from the Navy at 80 & then became a consultant for the Digital Equipment Corporation.

Our film “No Other Land” on occupied Masafer Yatta’s brutal expulsion won best documentary in Berlinale. Israel’s channel 11 aired this 30 second segment from my speech, insanely called it “anti semitic” - and I’ve been receiving death threats since. I stand behind every word.

BREAKING:
⚡ 🇮🇱 Huge protests against the Israeli government in Tel Aviv, Jerusalem, Haifa and other cities
The protesters demand the hostages to be returned home & some are demanding the fall of the entire Israeli cabinet.
This comes after the Israeli military admitted to killing three Israeli hostages despite flying white flags.

BBC documents what we have repeatedly warned: the IDF relocation order to flee from North to South Gaza was no humanitarian evacuation. It attempted illegal forcible transfer to places with no safety, no accommodation, no water, no health care, nor relief. bbc.co.uk/news/world-middle-…

The Director of the UN's New York office just resigned after thirty years at the organisation over the UN's handling of the ongoing genocide of Palestinians.
The entirety of his resignation letter is a necessary read but this first page blew me away.

Palestinian journalists killed the past 25 days.
Nidal and Haytham are still missing.

Today Bolivia cut off diplomatic ties with Israel, Chile has recalled the ambassador, and Colombia recalled its ambassador saying they will not support genocide. The world should follow the leadership of Latin America.

MISSING CONTEXT
If we add same-race crime, we see that the vast majority of violent crimes in America involve white victims and white offenders.

Today, #PinkShirtDay is important. As someone who was continuously bullied all through childhood and teen years, it is important that we model being kind, and be the person that kids can confide in when they are bullied. So be kind, considerate & caring. Today & everyday.

But ecological collapse:
This little piggy went extinct,
This little piggy stayed alive,
This little piggy had a habitat,
This little piggy had none,
And this little piggy cried "wee, wee, wee"
All the way to extinction.
