A difficult but necessary post. The full report of the Dinah Project is out, showing systematic sexual violence by Hamas used on the 7 October massacres (and on hostages afterwards). The many incidents in six different locations suggest this was intentional, not incidental - sexual violence as a weapon.Clear patterns of sexual violence emerge from the findings, including victims found partially or fully naked with their hands tied, sometimes to trees or poles; evidence of gang rape followed by executions; and severe genital violence. Sexual abuse also continued in captivity — released hostages reported forced nudity, physical and verbal sexual harassment, sexual attacks and threats of forced marriage.
More harrowing details in the piece: ynetnews.com/article/sjkasv5rx…Sadly, this report was necessary. Too many people are denying sexual violence was part of these attacks, people who in other circumstances say #BelieveHer. Perhaps it complicates their simplistic 'good guys and bad guys' view of the world, clashing with the narrative of 7 October as an act of liberation.
Needless to say - except on social media - this doesn't justify the ongoing horrific death and destruction in Gaza. (And if that's what you thought I was getting at, please go away.)

The Israeli army’s Arabic-language spokesperson, Avichay Adraee, issued the latest forced evacuation order for civilians living in nine areas in Khan Younis, southern Gaza. Adraee said the army was expanding its operation in deep Khan Younis.
The evacuation threats put most of the city under evacuation threats, except some areas of Al-Mawasi. The so-called Israeli safe zones, including al-Mawasi, are constantly attacked despite the army forcing Palestinians to move to those areas.

"Black women's unemployment is rising."🤡
All by itself? Magically?
The entire US, Dem and GOP, is going on close to 24 months straight of being publicly and loudly anti-civil rights (anti-DEI).
"Black women are more likely to work in the departments targeted by DOGE."
is like saying,
"Harbor seals are more likely to be found swimming in the water that happens to be rushing into a great white shark's rapidly opening mouth."🤡
Dudes have been open and vocal about their desire to drive Black women out of leadership positions in the federal government, higher education, and private industry. That's their goal.
And yet, we still talk about these outcomes as if they're just an unfortunate side effect of generalized downturns.
New data released Thursday from the Bureau of Labor Statistics marked the third straight month of high unemployment rates for Black women.Chabeli Carrazana (19th News)

🇫🇷 Surgeon who announced Brigitte Macron's transgender transformation found dead in Paris - Enquete du jour.
It turned out that 58-year-old François Faivre fell out of the window of his apartment. His sister Anne Dupont claims that François was not suicidal and that his death is likely related to the revealing interview he was about to give soon.
François Faivre was a colleague of the famous doctor specializing in transgender transformations Patrick Bouilly. It was his joint photos with Brigitte Macron that formed the basis of the corresponding "conspiracy theory" that she used to be a man.

in reply to Roland Häder🇩🇪 • • •I've been gaming on Linux exclusively for the past three years and I have no doubt it will improve more with time but I am getting disillusioned with all the corporate and political meddling.
I will keep using it on desktop but am retreating to distros that annoy me least about Wayland, or have gay Marxist developers. I even want to ditch systemd but that will be a slower transition that I haven't committed to yet.
Gaming on windows again has been an extreme pleasure for me and my family, I forced them to use Linux and am grateful they humored me but the experience was sub optimal and there's less enthusiasm to keep dog fooding it.
I recommend Windows 11 LTSC IoT version for the cleanest and less buggered experience.
