Today marks a year since Palestinian Academic and poet Dr. Refaat Alareer was assassinated in an Israeli airstrike in Gaza.
Refaat Alareer was killed by an Israeli air strike in December 2023. All proceeds from his latest book of poetry go to support displaced Palestinians in southern Gaza.

This weekend, the IDF bombed a hospital in Jabalya and a residential complex in Beit Lahia, killing at least 120 in those two strikes alone, including many women and children.
But again, they utter the magic words “precise munitions,” trying to justify another mass killing 🧵

Sweep is one of the very greatest performers I have ever seen. Eric Morecambe in cloth form. This cannot be watched enough. The fact he's playing Silver Machine by Hawkwind makes it even funnier.
