I am absolutely terrible at blogs.

On this day, 25 February 1994, a 37-year-old Zionist extremist from the US massacred 29 Palestinian civilians and wounded over 100 others as they prayed at a mosque in the city of Hebron during Ramadan, the Muslim holy month. The shooter entered the Ibrahimi mosque, also known as the Cave of the Patriarch, and massacred worshippers until members of the crowd were able to disarm and kill him. Protests then broke out against the murders outside the mosque, and the Israeli army responded by killing demonstrators outside the mosque, as well as outside a nearby hospital and at a local cemetery as the dead were being buried. Palestinians estimate the death toll at 50 to 70, with 250 injured, and some survivors believed there was a second gunman who was never apprehended. Many survivors also believe that the Israeli military was involved in the attack. One, Kamal Abdeen, who was paralysed in the shooting, told Al Jazeera: “The soldiers always searched us before we entered the mosque and we had to pass through a metal detector”. But “On that day the machine was turned off and no-one searched us. There were fewer soldiers there than usual and they were relaxed and laughing”. After the massacre, Israeli authorities forcibly closed down over 500 local businesses and sealed off large portions of the local area to Palestinians. They also partitioned the mosque in two parts, with the biggest part now reserved exclusively for Jewish settlers and visitors. Significant numbers of Israeli citizens also celebrated the massacre, and many Zionist extremists came to pay tribute at the grave of the murderer. One of these was Itamar Ben-Gvir, who visited the grave on his first date with his future wife, and also hung a photo of the murderer on his living room wall for many years. In 2021 Ben-Gvir was elected to Israel’s parliament, and the following year he became the minister of national security.

Israel is run by ghouls.

he’s like an oc i would have made when i was 16. except he is 25.

I know it’s not hard to point out reactionaries hypocrisy when it comes to like safe spaces or hug boxes or whatever but genuinely how much of an echo chamber do you have to exist in for you to think this is a reasonable thing to say

reblog if attacking fascism is really the hill you want to die on

this is literally like one of the most justified and honorable hills you could die on??? lol??

I mean, if we do it right, the idea is to make sure the fascists are the ones dying.

I’ll be on that hill making sure they die

Avatar Robot Cafe DAWN ver.β

Once bedridden, it is not possible to live a full life. We are sure many people have felt this way.

We have been working with people with disabilities, searching for ways to create a society where people can meet, work, and live like oneself even if one is bedridden or housebound.

In our cafe, some of our staffs work using our avatar robots OriHime and OriHime-D from their homes and hospitals, giving an entirely new definition to remote working. Our staffs who work using our avatar robots are all who feel hindered in social participation due to their conditions. We aim to achieve a new form of social participation through the use of technology.

We call our OriHime staffs “Pilots.” We currently have over 60 pilots from in and out of Japan working in this café. We have created a space where customers and OriHime pilots can share new experiences, expanding their social sphere and creating friendships.
