This is targeted. IDF have a mission to silence the voiceless. Destroy Palestinian humanity.
Fascism and authoritarianism have gone full circle. A new holocaust is now the plan from the people who survived the original holocaust.
Would be really inspiring if the media had a little solidarity. Right Wing corporate owners don’t care if reporters are murdered. Right Wing governments expect media submission to the tired narratives that support Right Wing governments.
Fun Fact: Amtrak legally has priority over freight trains, the issue is there is no governing body to enforce this and because freight trains have gotten so long, they can’t fit on the sidings made for Amtrak trains to pass them, leading to many delays on train travel

Fun Fact: Amtrak can not legally charge freight companies a tax for delays as it is technically a private company despite being government owned

I’m having a meltdown. When I was 9 years old I read an article in a magazine called Backyard Adventures about how this antelope, the saiga, was on the verge of extinction. I enlisted the help of my best friend and launched a fundraising campaign called Save the Saigas. We sold lemonade, had bake sales, sold belongings, yelled at strangers as they passed in their cars. Our parents were able to match the money we made. Our school helped. It wasn’t much, it didn’t save them, but it helped the organization at least a little bit.
Y’all. The saigas have been saved. A little piece of my passionate child heart that has seemed hopelessly lost and endlessly disappointed for a long time feels so soothed. Maybe it’s not all hopeless. Maybe our efforts aren’t a complete waste. Maybe we keep trying and actually hope for the best.
