I just bought a pair of these. I didn't think anything of them initially, but when I tried them on they came alive and I instantly fell in love with them.

For those keeping up with poignant metaphors, the SS United States (pictured as it once was and as it is now), will be towed out of Mobile, Alabama on Nov. 12 and deliberately sunk.

From the other side of the funding table, may I say how much I LOVE to receive any proposal written by a human being? I know that these jobs are disappearing because of LLMs, but as the recipient of all that slop...my god. I don't know the answer, but the sector can't go on like this.

Whole bunch of interesting indicators everywhere

LIVE: Assembly of Manitoba Chiefs is holding a news conference regarding First Nations leaders returning to court to defend landmark rulings on Canada’s legal obligations to provide safe drinking water and adequate housing on reserve.

Any town that agrees to host a Trump convention or rally that doesn't ask this notorious deadbeat for money in advance is ridiculously incompetent. Trump has stiffed MANY cities. It's a lesson he learned when he didn't pay his subcontractors during construction of buildings.

Orthodox churches that have not shared communion since the fifth century are now worshipping together, navigating doctrine, culture and language to find a common faith.

From the @newlinesmag.bsky.social  archives: Since the fall of Kabul, Pakistan has struggled to maintain its strategic relevance, and its attempts to reengage with the United States have been largely unsuccessful, writes Waleed Nasir.

Best idea ever

“Could you see if my home is still standing?” For @newlinesmag.bsky.social, I write about how satellite imagery became one of the only ways Palestinians could see what remained of home. I spoke to four, two from Rafah, about what these images show and leave out.

Ghayda remembers her father’s farm in Juhor ad-Dik. He had started with a small piece of land and expanded it little by little over the years. As children, she and her siblings had dreamed of having a swimming pool, and eventually their father built one there.

Around it grew olive, clementine, citrus and almond trees. “Friday was our scared day,” Ghayda told me as their entire family would go to the farm. “It used to be really our favorite spot on earth.” Today, in her own words, “it is flattened and inaccessible.”

“Rafah was my grandmother,” Hamzé said. He remembers the smell of freshly baked bread, the olive and lemon trees around her home, and her stories about Yibna, the Palestinian village from which his family was displaced in 1948. On the wall hung the keys to their old house.

“My entryway to Palestine, to my Palestinian heritage and identity was the stories my father told me about growing up in Gaza,” @tksshawa.bsky.social told me. Many of the stories were about the beach, fishing, and beekeepers, including friends getting stung after getting into a beehive.

A fellow open-source investigator, @annonemo.bsky.social, grappled with the same questions when Palestinians asked him if their homes were still standing. “It felt wrong that they wanted, or felt they had to, ask me, a stranger using a pseudonym on X, such a personal and important question.”

What happens when it becomes too expensive to print a book? In Egypt, rising costs for paper and printing are putting independent publishers under pressure.

From the New Lines' archives: The number of “-cides” in Gaza is growing, but beyond its destruction of schools, hospitals, farmland and entire family lineages, Israel is also engaging in historicide — the destruction of history itself — argues @lsmwilson.bsky.social .

Précision contextuelle: Le prochain ministre de l’éducation, sera mon 19e en 30 ans. Cherchez pas les causes de l’instabilité de l’éducation sur le plancher des écoles.

Éric Duhaime dit: actuellement, il y a trop de taxes et pas assez de services publics. Sa solution: couper les taxes et les services publics, sauf la police, j’imagine, pour gérer les conséquences de la pauvreté qui s’ensuivra. Ce programme, vieux comme le monde, finit toujours mal.

Have you noticed, lately, or noticed people around you commenting, that there just seems to be no money anymore. There's no money for companies to make the tv shows you like, the video games you like, the local diner you like shut down, no one you know can find a job. Think about that in context of

Predatory capitalism keeps re-inventing new forms of the Pyramid Scheme.

A 10K contribution and a $900 million return. The scale of the graft in Homeland Security is a) off the charts and b) possible because no-one believes they will face any accountability

Never had soup again

I feel that "detransitioners" are something of a red herring. People discontinue medication all the time. I used to take estrogen. I know people who've tried 10 antidepressants. You try things until one of them works. Sometimes that thing is testosterone, sometimes it's not. No one's banning lexapro

I'm incredibly annoyed by certain detransitioners who demonize testosterone and transmasculinity on their very large platforms, but ultimately their experiences aren't relevant to mine. It's like, sorry, everyone has to take Prozac now because Lexapro made me sadder. That's not how medicine works.
