“About 100 pro-#Palestine#students at the University of #Texas at #Dallas held a sit-in along the hallway that leads to the school president’s office …
The students’ main demand is for the university to pull investments from companies that ‘are producing the jets, the missiles and the bombs that are being used in #Gaza right now’”
Call it another late #ThursDeath for this week or an early one for next week, but this EP that DYSMORPHIA put out last year is RIDICULOUS and I have it #NowPlaying

The holy month of Ramadan begins next Monday, and while it will be observed by approximately 1.9 billion people around the world, its significance and rituals are a mystery to many. Ambreen Hamed and her husband, Faraz Ahmed, have established the Texas Suhoor Fest in an effort to help others understand the season.

Hi everyone. I'm going to share a new #introduction.
I'm a #nonbinary (they/them) movement journalist in my 40s, currently based in Central #Texas. From 2022 until today's layoffs, I was Digital Editor at the @TexasObserver. I've been a writer, journalist and editor since at least 2011, when I got my start on the primordial political blog Firedoglake. My involvement with the Occupy Wall Street movement helped make me a journo and I've always worn my bias on my sleeve.
In October, I traveled to #MeowWolf Grapevine, a unique sprawling and psychedelic art installation which begins in a mutated suburban home ... all hidden away in a massive shopping mall. This also was part of the @TexasObserver magazine ... and is one of my favorite ever assignments. https://www.texasobserver.org/meow-wolf-grapevine-brrrmuda/ (8/?)
A reporter attended the "Forbidden Courses" at the "University of Austin" which currently meets on a weird #Dallas-area office complex owned by Harlan Crow, with faculty like Bari Weiss. It's every bit as pathetic and dangerous as you imagine.
