you really gotta give him credit: not a lot of guys look as much like Adrian Tchaikovsky, preeminent science fiction author of the decade, as Adrian Tchaikovsky looks like Adrian Tchaikovsky

"why are so many leftists disabled" maybe it's because disabled people don't really care for the "kill all disabled people" parties but who can say

Capitalism needs unemployment to function. it's not a mistake.

unemployment drives labor prices down through competition, and lets Capitalists set the price as the buyer of labor. when someone is guaranteed to die, you will do anything for it to not be you.

this one part of is how capitalism ruins people, and exploits labor for profit.

When all you have is a handsaw, every problem looks like a beautiful lady in a box. And you have a magician outfit. And people are watching.

I don’t know who will care about what I’m saying, but the situation here in Gaza is literally spiraling out of control in a terrifying way.

We are living in an area that makes up no more than 30% of the entire Gaza Strip, and this area has been reduced to rubble and tents. We are besieged by land, sea, and air. There is no real way out and nowhere we can escape to. There are cranes and massive sand embankments surrounding Gaza, and people are living under constant surveillance and fear. You cannot leave, and you cannot choose where you want to go. All you can do is wait.

Water stations have almost completely stopped operating because fuel and oil have run out. The tents have been torn apart and worn down by the extreme heat, and people are living inside them in conditions that are impossible to describe. Hospitals have been extensively destroyed, with medicines and medical supplies unavailable, and even basic diagnostic and treatment equipment has become extremely scarce. Almost everything is prohibited from entering Gaza, and even what is allowed in is subject to approval and restrictions.

The entire education system has collapsed. Schools have been destroyed, children have been deprived of their education .

The reality here is far worse than anything I can write. Words cannot convey the scale of what we are experiencing, and no single photograph can show what it is like to watch an entire city collapse before our eyes.

We are not living a normal life. We are simply trying to survive. Besieged from every direction, without a home, without safety, and without any clear way out.

Ok like. Imagine life without ads. You wake up, check your messages across a variety of apps, no ads. You get up and put on the tv while you prep your breakfast, no ads. Maybe you drive somewhere and switch on the radio, no ads. Maybe you drive a long distance, yet somehow, not a single billboard on your path. You pick up a newspaper or magazine to pass the time, no advertisements only articles. You turn on your game console, the home screen is just about your games, no ads to buy more. You open a streaming app, you don't pay extra for no ads, there's just no ads ever.

Think about how much of your time is spent looking at ads. "Download ublock" yeah I know, I have. But that doesn't change that the world is covered with endless advertising. Imagine never seeing that again. How much better our lives would be.

Images description. A series of city streets seen from different angles. On every surface where an ad might appear, there is instead a blank sign with only the color yellow. The signs are in shop windows, covering hanging restaurant signs, hanging as banners over the street, and more. The same shade of yellow is used for all the signs. Pedestrians and cars are passing through the streets, some looking at the yellow, others going about their day. End description.
