Apparently I've been on Twitter 11 years, which explains why my brain is so poisoned #MyTwitterAnniversary

This is the context, this is what matters. Not killing Sinwar one year into a war that has destroyed Gaza and has not brought anyone closer to basic humanity

Help! I (36F) blocked my ex (53M) on twitter but then he spent $44 billion and renamed the entire website after himself so he could see my tweets again

Workers of the world, we are all called to do this.
A standoff is in progress at the docks in Piraeus, the port of Athens, Greece. Trade unionists are blocking a truckload of ammo destined for Israel. Chants of “the people's blood won't stain our hands"

Soldiers are “teenage victims” Folks it’s getting absurd

the columbia business professor who has: targeted me for months, retweeted inappropriate comments about my body, and claimed I was part of Hamas as we evacuated my family from Gaza (we’re Palestinian Christians) is now banned from Columbia’s campus for harassment.

“Jihad” means “struggle.” “Mein Kampf” also means “my struggle.” Imagine falling for it twice.

The Israeli military’s errand boy didn’t read the piece where I dealt with this whataboutist objection. North Korea, for all its sins, isn’t currently attacking UN troops and massacring 100s of UN staff. But sure, if removing Israel requires removing North Korea, I’m down. You?
Quick: Somebody ask Qatar’s errand boy whether North Korea should be removed as well

It’s past time to overturn Citizens United.
New report shows Elon Musk has pumped $75 million into his pro-Trump "America PAC" between July 3 and September 5. Zero other donors to the super PAC.

There are no words powerful enough to capture the agony of human beings being massacred & burned alive. The U.S. is funding & arming the Israeli military’s extermination of the Palestinian people. It’s unconscionable. End this genocide. There must be an #ArmsEmbargoNow
To the world who turned a cold shoulder, Gazan people burned alive in their tents tonight.

I’ve watched a video of people burning alive, outside a hospital, still attached to drips at the hands of Zionists. Meanwhile Zionists are taking offence at……. A necklace 🤷🏼‍♀️ who are these people if not monsters ?

Because the people who tweet these final words are Palestinians. Our media outlets and politicians haven’t even been subtle, have they? They may well have screamed at the top of their lungs that Palestinian life has no meaningful worth.
How have we normalised reading people’s final words in tweet form? How is it possible that this causes no moral outrage? No change in policy? Especially in a country that rightly memorialised the 9/11 SMS & voice messages as a symbol of absolute tragedy

To all our young people on Yom Kippur, wtf?
To all our young people this #YomKippur: we tried to instill in you a sense of justice, righteousness and honor for all people. We are proud when your generation actively pursues these values. But we did not intend for some in your generation to turn their backs on our people…
