I actually think I would be fine getting interviewed by Isaac Chotiner. If anything we’d probably become friends afterwards

FRASIER: Well that’s just great Niles, we’re lost in the Moroccan desert in Dad’s Winnebago simply because you thought Maris might be at some β€œdesert rave”. And we are following these people who clearly do not know what a shower is! 
NILES: Well Marta told me she might be here. 
MARTIN: Hey these ravers are great guys! I fancy a bit of a β€œdesert rave” myself, huh? 
DAPHNE: I went to a few raves in my time back in Manchester. I met a fella called Bez at one of them. His dancing was just so hypnotic

Iranian here. The loudest voices in the room do not represent all of our voices. You can be against the regime AND not want a war.

Tehran is a city of nine million people, with 17 million in the larger metropolitan area.

Saturday is the first day of the week for Iranians.

Millions of people are at work, and children are in school.

A banner featuring a logo on the side with a painted anemone poppy and the handwriting-style text that says "Heal Minds Gaza" in a green circle. Next to it reads: "Heal Minds Gaza is a new initiative that will support children’s healing through therapeutic activities for self-esteem, social skills, and community-building. Support the first project for children who were detained in occupation prisons." The text is written on notebook paper cut in a circle. The banner is decorated with crayon sketches of hearts, stars, and squiggles in different colors.

ICYMI, this one's for the kids.

80+ kids have returned to Gaza from occupation prisons, where they experienced unimaginable psychological violence. We're trying to deliver 6 days of mental health workshops to support them.

Almost like doing your research about what’s important to people, rather than waiting for them to come to you and feeling superior when they don’t, really makes a difference πŸ€”
