The cover for the original volume of Thyme Travellers.
This is not a joke.
Thyme Travellers: An Anthology of Palestinian Speculative Fiction will be an ongoing series!
And we’re open to submissions for the second volume starting today: soniasulaiman.com/thyme-travel...
I love it when artists who are supposedly left-wing talk about how their art is going to suffer due to boycotts and so we shouldn’t have boycotts.
Gurl we can talk about individual impact, we can set up alternative care systems, but you are not liberatory if your only concern is yourself.
Though to be slightly more objective, not giving terf ass bitches money for them to target trans folks isn’t intelligent, it’s basic decency.
@awhalefact X.com the whales will not be watching the new hbo harry potter show. you might think this is because very few whales watch any television at all, but it is actually because jk rowling is a terf ass bitch
thus proving whales are among the most intelligent creatures on earth
Wild seeing folks be pro-TSA all of a sudden.
My entire life the systematic murder and erasure of trans people has been a daily norm that just runs in the background of American life and has been perpetuated by every major institution and publication and when you talk to or about trans folks you need to take into account that context
Clashes between Bahrain’s dictatorship and protesters. Angry crowds are calling for the removal of US bases and troops from the country.

Following Al-Jazeera's coverage has been very interesting. Like this is the headline of IT (alongside 4 other GCC countries - and Jordan) getting attacked by Iran. The FM condemned the attack, but also we had it coming.
BOSTON!!! Looking forward to seeing you on April 27 at the Harvard Science Center! I will be in conversation with THE Evelynn Hammonds!!!
Can't make that? Don't want to cross the river? I'll be at Brookline Booksmith with THE David Kaiser the next day, April 28 :-)

This book was started almost exactly a year ago, during the March 29th eclipse in Aries. Today Saturn and Neptune meet in Aries 0 degrees. We are meant to move forward. We are meant to step into action after refining our practice. We refine everyday, we take action every day.
May this book be a guide for those looking to be better broken:in service to liberation.

I can’t stop thinking about this, but this was the main reason Trump and the US toppled Venezuela’s government and seized its oil. It was always done to starve Cuba of oil and make Cuban civilization grind to a stop and crumble to nothingness. It was always designed for US domination of the world
Friends from Minneapolis reporting to me that things are at the point where folks are being hidden in other people's houses and we are in the "again" part of "never again" which the "never" was supposed to preclude
I love this so much! Whatever you’re channeling is clearly wonderful lol

Concentration camp victims protest! The incredible bravery and fortitude and care involved in doing this ✊🏽
‘some of them holding signs that included “Libertad para los niños,” or “Liberty for the kids.”‘
I’m out here in Los Angeles, where hundreds have gathered in response to the ICE execution of Alex Pretti in Minneapolis. Chants and speeches underway here outside the Federal Building in DTLA. Working multiple cameras today so posts may be sparse

People don't really think through how the Nazis actively made it harder for Jews to leave
The idea that all Americans are guaranteed any kind of freedom of movement, including boarding a flight, is quite the presumption at this point.
Getting my book from the library means that the library keeps it in stock and people will find it and read it and the book will live and I love that for my book

The book cover of Blood Orange
I wanted to start off #pride by sharing an important book:
Blood Orange by Yaffa As has poems of grief, identity, genocide, colonialism, and hope from the lenses of a queer Palestinian Muslim. Me and friends have described it as a must read for all. 🇵🇸

Finished Sage yesterday, and will finish this over the weekend. Both are by Yaffa As.
