Father of two daughters. Started sitting down to pee when they were toddlers so if they walked in they'd see how it was done. 10 years later still doing it; so much more comfortable; less drips and no mess. Men; ignore the propaganda, sit to pee.

“It’s not that we were invisible, but the world chose not to see us.”

Gaza journalist and writer Saja Hamdan breaks down as she exposes the moral collapse of global media and political systems amid Israel’s ongoing genocide in Gaza.

Hamdan says that after two years of relentless slaughter, hyper-visibility did not bring justice or protection, but instead revealed deliberate political and media complicity, with outlets sanitizing language, governments ignoring mass protests, and so-called democracies silencing the will of their people.

She argues that the problem was never public empathy, but state power shielding genocide, where Western regimes masquerade authoritarianism behind elections and institutions.

Hamdan reaffirms faith in humanity itself, insisting that education, conscience, and resistance must prevail, not only to free Palestine, but to liberate a world that has normalized oppression.

Secretarybird

A distinctive, tall, long-legged, crane-like raptor with unique quill-like plumes on its head and bright-red facial skin. In flight, the dark edge to the hind wing, diamond-shaped tail, and long spatulate tail feathers make it unmistakable. It prefers open rangeland and savanna, where it strides about hunting for reptiles, small mammals, and insects, which it bludgeons with its powerful legs.
