        My FIL just said about the team name change from the “Redskins” to the “Chiefs”: “the team name got dei’d”. This is shortly after making a big deal that our straws from the restaurant we were at were still plastic.

    The day Israel came for the booksellers - With a Palestinian coloring book as proof of ‘incitement,’ Israeli police raided East Jerusalem’s world-famous Educational Bookshop and arrested its owners.

      For fuck’s sake, I hadn’t heard about this yet. These educational bookshops in occupied East Jerusalem are super famous and one of the only places you can get good quality international books and academic journals in Palestine. Their customers are mostly foreign scholars and students. This is yet another proof point that Israel is proudly genocidal.

      When Odeh requested to know the titles of the seized books and the names of their authors, Malka responded: “I cannot answer. We will confront [the Munas] with the books when I receive authorization … It will take time to go through them, which is why we are here requesting a several-day extension of the [Munas’] detention … Most of the books are in Arabic, some are in English, and some in German. I can’t go through them one by one.”

      They don’t even know what the books are about yet but they’re more than happy to bust down a business’ doors and arrest the owners because some books have a palestinian flag. I swear to god I hope these people experience only misery for the rest of their, hopefully short, lives.

    Out of curiosity, what’s the source of this meme?

    Looks like the cat is a stock image: https://stock.adobe.com/images/A-cute-tabby-cat-sits-in-a-cozy-chair-and-reads-a-book.-Vintage-engraving-illust/790144997

    And the cat+quote is a standalone meme, but I’ve never seen this LeVar Burton photo before.

    EDIT: Could be a real photo?

    https://youtu.be/TwKasIh7qtA?t=518

    That’s awesome. I love Burton even more now.

      No, that’s LeVar Burton, a Star Trek TNG actor. He’s just that awesome.

      I believe the board he’s holding isn’t even a photoshop, as he advocates for reading banned books IRL. But I can’t find his original post.

        If this is AI I’m not even sure it matters. It’s so true and on-brand with him it’s painful. So with that being said I’d really doubt it was fake.

        My first thought was that it’s an AI generated photo of LeVar Burton. The comment didn’t seem like “who is that”, more of a “why is this AI?”
