alt-text: there’s laundry to do and a genocide to stop. I have to eat better and also avoid a plague. my rent went up $150. I’ll need to pick up more shifts. Twenty people died in Rafah this morning and every major news outlet is stretching the limits of passive voice to suggest whole families may have leaped up through the air at missiles that otherwise had the right of way. I just got a notification that my student loan payments are starting up again and my phone isn’t charged. My cousin got COVID for a fourth time and can no longer work or walk or even feed himself. The person across from me on the L train seems to fashion themself a punk rock revolutionary, but they’re not wearing a face mask, and that’s the kind of cognitive dissonance that makes me want to steal batteries. Fascists keep winning primaries for both parties, and I think I gained a few pounds. The CDC just announced there are no more speed limits on highways, and I think this Ativan is finally hitting. The NYPD farmer’s market only sells bad apples, have you heard that one? Listen it’s warm today, too warm for March. But I don’t have time to think through the implications because there’s laundry to do and a genocide to stop.

    Biden is pushing for a ceasefire and sanctioning settlers, while Trump said that Israel should “finish the problem”.

    If you consider a Palestinian who hasn’t lost their family yet, there’s a pretty obvious difference between the two candidates.

      He literally sanctioned 3 settlers, and hes been lying for weeks now about how this supposed temporary truce is happening any minute now. Meanwhile he continues to offer vocal and physical aid to Israel.

      Fuck off with the bidenoganda.

        It was more than 30 settlers in the first batch, and it was clear that they wouldn’t stop there.

        And it’s Hamas that is delaying the truce at this point, because they either don’t know where their own hostages are, or the hostages are all dead already and they don’t want to admit it.

        Fuck off with your lies.

          President Joe Biden handed down financial sanctions against four Israeli nationals last week who were allegedly connected to violence against civilians in the West Bank amid the Israel-Hamas war.

          It was 4 not 3, and certainly not 30. 4 people who were never going to go to the US or using US banks cant do so. Big fucking deal. Bidens an absolute flog whos doing nothing of substance.

          And its not even connected to Israels current genocide in Gaza, which neans it does nothing to help end what he supports Israel doing.

          Go on liar, prove this wrong.
