“Walking through my own neighbourhood in Chiyeh, one is struck not only by the scale of loss but by the quiet determination that continues to animate the people who remain, that manifests in small, almost ordinary gestures.”
ep 261 of DYA: Navid Zarrinnal of The Colony Archive joins @adnanhusain.bsky.social and me from Tehran to discuss the impact of US-Israeli bombing, the government's war communism, what it would mean for Iran to be a global power, and much more
whenever people in movies use horses as transportation it just feels so wrong to me that I can’t focus on anything else. Even watching Gandalf riding Shadowfax in the first Lord of the Rings makes me physically uncomfortable like I know you have a magic horse but please slow down

new by Roqayah for DYA:
"The targeting of Sweeney and Sbeity, who were injured in the attack, should be understood within a broader historical and political framework. ... Al-Qasmieh bridge should also be understood as a vital connection that ties one part of the south to another."

on the new DYA: historian and host of The Colony Archive Navid Zarrinnal joins @urorientalist.bsky.social and me on the phone from Tehran to discuss the US-Israeli attack, the martyrdom of Ayatollah Khamenei, and how Iranians are responding
Seyyed Khamenei died with more dignity than anyone who abandoned Iran, who decided white people and Western imperialism were the lesser evil, will ever have in your meaningless lives. Oh you're relieved? Your dreams will be laughed at and forgotten. He will be a hero forever
