HIV now returning. This carefully details the system breakdowns after aid cuts, the local actions for resilience, what still had to be sacrificed, then the human consequences. nytimes.com/2026/04/25/healt…

got this message from our Airbnb and have become completely consumed by it. I cannot fathom what a “widget animal” could be and we searched every corner for anything that could plausibly be a “widget animal.” i now look for and see the possibility of widget animals in everything

Blank Street is the coffee shop you'd make if you asked ChatGPT to create a brand for you. The Helvetica font, matte green color, and even the word 'Blank' are designed to appeal to everybody, everywhere and as hollow as the brand may be, you have to admire how well-packaged it is as an investment vehicle. Every time I take a sip of Blank Street latte, I think about how its success says more about our modern world than just about any other up-and-coming brand. Every critique you make of Blank Street is a critique you can pass onto our society writ-large. You can't help but appreciate the brand once you think of it as modern art.

This is the work that can’t be replicated by AI or pursued by a reporter with a Substack. It requires time - during which a reporter isn’t producing a lot of copy. Building trust with sources so you can tell sensitive stories, that’s a process that doesn’t scale.

They targeted the spot that journalists have used for 23 months to connect to the WiFi because they want to murder without the world witnessing. 'The last selfie.. Nasser Medical Comolex Massacre Khan Yunis 25 August 2025'

Journalists everywhere need to stand in solidarity on this reuters.com/world/middle-eas…

Earlier today, two Israeli strikes hit Nasser hospital in Gaza, killing at least 20 people. Jerome Grimaud, our emergency coordinator in Gaza, shares his reaction: “We denounce in the strongest possible terms Israel’s horrendous attacks on the Nasser medical complex today – the only partially functioning public hospital in the south of Gaza. Israeli forces killed at least 20 people and injured 50 more in consecutive strikes, including healthcare workers, rescuers, and journalists. “Among them was Mariam Abu Dagga, a freelance photographer who frequently worked with MSF. We are heartbroken by her death. Mariam leaves behind a son who must now grow up without his mother. At least four other journalists were also killed today. “Some MSF staff members were forced to shelter in the laboratory as Israel repeatedly struck the building amidst rescue efforts. We are outraged as the Israeli forces continue to attack healthcare workers and journalists with impunity. “For the past 22 months, we have watched as healthcare facilities have been levelled, journalists silenced, and healthcare workers buried beneath the rubble by the Israeli forces. As Israel continues to shun international law, the only witnesses of their genocidal campaign are deliberately being targeted. It must stop now.”

Mariam Dagga, killed by Israel today, was an incredibly talented photographer. She relentlessly and courageously documented the genocide. I'm going to share some of her images. Graphic content included.

I can’t in good conscience continue to work for Reuters given their betrayal of journalists in Gaza and culpability in the assassination of 245 our colleagues.

What were you doing at 28? Were you writing a message to the world anticipating the end of your life? That’s what Anas Al Sharif was doing at 28, along with reporting the genocide of his people. Israel is openly claiming the attack knowing it won’t face consequences. ENOUGH.

Tonight, Israel murdered the bravest journalist of our generation, Anas Al Sharif. They promised they will murder him. They promised us his death. They threatened, and organized a campaign to prove he is targetable, and they succeeded, and now they're basking in their "successful operation." I swear on everything that just yesterday I was thinking of dear Anas. I thought if the pen can truly protect. If a platform can truly protect. I mean millions are looking to you for guidance , for news, for coverage on this horror, surely that platform can offer some protection no?
