"Arab 48" (عرب48) is an Arabic-language news site, considered a platform for national Palestinian intellectuals in #Israel -- often those identified with the "Balad" political party, which supports a two-state solution and advocates a more Democratic and inclusive Israel and equal rights for its Palestinian citizens.
Dr. Hassan Jabareen, General Director of #Adalah, an independent human rights organization and legal center.
Our dialogue with Dr. Jabareen uncovers the unsettling realities faced by these citizens, highlighting the institutionalized persecution intensifying amidst the war. We explore the stark consequences of expressing solidarity with the besieged civilians in #Gaza, revealing how such simple acts of empathy are met with drastic retaliations. From legal actions and academic exclusions to job terminations, the repercussions are tangible and terrifying, as hundreds face arrests and countless others suffer for their benign acts of compassion.
I am a PhD candidate in Tartu, searching for the imprints of dynamical friction in different environments, and how through this there might be a possibility to constrain the properties of dark matter and other dynamics in galaxies. Supervised by Rain Kipper.
I am very interested in galactic dynamics, computational astronomy and lately I am exploring superbubbles in NGC628 as seen by JWST-MIRI.
Does anyone need a #Bluesky code? I have a few & would love to give them to critical academics or #vegan, #environmentalist, pro-#Palestine comrades… maybe you know people who fit that bill and are still stuck on Xitter?
(I love Mastodon but I think BSky is attracting more former chronic #Xitter users to switch over, and really, whatever works at this point)

Scot-free Safe in Georgia is based on the real-life kidnapping of Scott who stopped to assist, what appeared to be, a lone stranded motorist along I-95 just outside Titusville, Florida. While it appears I may have taken liberties with the facts of this crime, as well as the situations and conversations that followed the initial kidnapping, I can assure you that they are true to Scott's vivid memories of this traumatic event. Scott, his wife Deb, their families, and all their friends, truly hope you enjoy reading this story. A story of how one man's faith, and his love of his wife, provided him with the courage and the mental skills needed in order to survive when most of us would not have.
