This image is from January 1st 2025 and, in my opinion, has remained unbeaten as the most iconic photo of the year.

My greatest achievement is that 2 days ago, I began appearing live on a new local commercial satellite channel as a news correspondent. I convey the reality of the suffering from the heart of Gaza Strip to the entire #MiddleEast.
I also work as a volunteer photojournalist for organizations that support orphans here

I’m trying to raise enough money to cover my transportation costs to travel across the #gaza Strip, which’ll enable me to reach my work

The distance between #Dublin and #London is only 464 km (288 miles), #asthecrowflies. The two capital cities are in a Common Travel Area.

But as #GretaThunberg showed today, it's about a million miles in politics.

In Dublin, #PresidentConnolly regards the #genocide in #Gaza as a horror. But in London, the #CityOfLondonPolice treat opposition to genocide as #Terrorism. So #Greta went from a presidential welcome in #Ireland to arrest in #England / #UK.

They stack the deck, hoard the board, and call it “progress.” We’re here to flip the table—because our planet isn’t a game, and we refuse to let a few players bankrupt our future.

"America has blown 80 years of accumulated goodwill & trust among its allies, our American moderator was told… America’s recent actions have destroyed the ability of any ally to continue to have faith in America to act even within its own strategic self-interest, let alone that of any ally.

The officer then said that even a swift return of America to its former role won’t matter.

Because 'we will never fucking trust you again.'

The Americans at the table seemed somewhat startled by the heat of that pronouncement."

Anyone startled by that pronouncement is insanely optimistic or incredibly naive. The damage DJT did during his first term would take decades to fix; the damage he's done since is absolutely irreparable. And while you might think that's awful or unjust, they only need to 'never' trust us again for maybe five years. Because there won't be a United States of America beyond that. DJT is running the country like any business that's been bought & is being sold for parts.

Last week Trump called Tim Walz the ‘R slur’.

He then doubled down on it, and now his base have begun harassing the entire Walz family.

Memes are circulating on socials encouraging people to drive past their house and yell it at them.

I’ve been personally called that word more than 1,000 times in the last seven days.

We can’t allow this to happen. The disability community has fought far too hard for far too long to remove that word from the public vernacular.

This is ableism at it’s most ugly, and ableism feeds eugenics and eugenics feeds fascism.

Help us fight back. We are not expendable.

If you haven’t seen the PSA from Epstein’s human trafficking victims, it’s an absolute gut punch. If you’re someone who has experienced SA, you may not wish to. It can be triggering.
