Hey all! Normally when I post for Mona's community aid initiative, I post about the communities of refugees she is helping. But today I went to Instagram to update you all and saw that she hasn't posted since April, and we hadn't spoken since then either. She hadn't messaged me updates like she normally does. I was very afraid. It turned out she had broken her phone during a displacement, and she hasn't been able to replace it due to the high costs. Mobile phones are a scarce and expensive resource in Ghazzah but they are a lifeline for the families there. And for Mona it is not just a lifeline for her family but also for the refugee community she has dedicated the last few years of her life serving. She cannot connect with her usual network of volunteers or access funds without her phone (she had to contact me through her mother's phone). Despite helping displaced refugees, her and her family are also displaced refugees also living out of a tent, and she cannot currently afford a replacement. Please please please help her get a new one so she can continue doing the life-saving work she has been doing. Chuffed link to support Mona.

Every single dollar counts!!

Totally normal for a legitimate for-profit company to refuse to reclaim or stop running their products even after they're no longer being paid to do so. I'm sure it's very normal to just keep running your service for free when your contract's been terminated. Spending money to continue running cameras that supposedly no one is looking at is definitely not an indicator they are just run by the federal government to spy on everyone and only a wacko conspiracy theorist would think so.

July 15, 2026 – “For almost a year after October 7, Israel’s war with Lebanon remained an oddly prim, choreographed conflict on the border.”

You'd be surprised how much this comes up on official documents. (Found on Facebook with no context whatsoever.)

Disability history is global history—disabled people on every continent have organized, resisted, and shaped their societies.

Hey, guess what! Tonight I discovered there's a Disability Wiki.

I think we can all agree that it's rather inspiring that a wild raccoon with a shortened spine syndrome is agile and thriving out there somewhere.

Uncharismatic Fact of the Day

The least bittern is really the most when it comes to agility! Though they're the smallest heron, standing at only 36 cm (14 in) tall, they are often found in water that is far too deep for their larger cousins. This is because the least bittern has very long, agile toes which allows it to grip onto the slender reeds of its hunting grounds, keeping it suspended over the water as it searches for prey.
