Canadian Doctor Shot By IDF Describes Gaza’s Devastated Medical System | Dr Tarek Loubani | TMR

Please watch this video. It is so important to understand just what Israel is doing to hospitals, medical providers, and how they just don’t see any Palestinian or their supporters as humans, as people. To the Israelis, they are all something to be wiped out, to be terrorized to nonexistence. Hugs. Scottie

Emma speaks with Dr. Tarek Loubani, associate professor at the University of Western Ontario and leader of the Glia Project, to discuss what is happening on the ground now that hospitals in Gaza are mostly non-operational.

Jon Stewart on Tucker Carlson’s Putin Interview & Trip to Russia | The Daily Show

One thing that Jon did not point out. While Tucker was going on how low the prices are in Russia, the price for the small amount of groceries he got which he claimed was a weeks worth … really small eaters there, was over half the monthly income of the average Russian. So Tucker blew half the money the average Russian earns on one week’s food alone. I think as hard as things are in the US, we still have it better. By the way, Stewart’s comedic timing and ability is still spot on, I think. Hugs. Scottie

In response to online backlash over his criticism of Joe Biden last week, Jon studies Tucker Carlson’s interview with Vladimir Putin in Russia for a lesson in speaking “of course” to power. Plus, Michael Kosta reports from North Korea to demonstrate how nice life under a dictatorship can be.

Let’s talk about Oklahoma vaguely….

What Beau is referring to is an N.B or transgender teen who was brutally assaulted in a girls’ bathroom. Notice that the attacks on trans and non-binary people in bathrooms got much worse at the urging of right wing hate preachers / politicians. Notice it is the rhetoric is always that trans people will hurt your daughters, but the facts show that is wrong. It is the trans people being hurt by cis people. For needing to use a toilet. I did not post the quote but in the first article it mentions Ryan Walters, Oklahoma’s superintendent of public instruction, is facing intense scrutiny over his ties to Chaya Raichik, the figure behind the far-right Libs of TikTok hate account, and for their outspoken stance against transgender rights.

The grandmother, Sue Benedict, told The Independent that her child had been the subject of months of intensifying bullying that began earlier in 2023 after Oklahoma’s Republican-led government banned transgender students from using school bathrooms that align with their gender identity.Benedict told their grandmother that they and another trans student had fought the other students in the bathroom, according to the Independent. The teen told her they’d hit their head on the floor. “Nex did not see themselves as male or female,” Sue Benedict said. “Nex saw themselves right down the middle. I was still learning about it, Nex was teaching me that.” https://news.yahoo.com/oklahoma-transgender-student-dies-allegedly-125629309.html

What is nonbinary?

A nonbinary person experiences their gender identity and/or gender expression outside of the binary categories of “man” and “woman.” Other words may be used by nonbinary people to describe their gender more specifically, including agender, bigender, demigender and pangender.

Some nonbinary people call themselves transgender and consider themselves part of the transgender community, while others do not.

“Nonbinary is an umbrella term that encompasses many different ways to understand one’s gender,” according to GLAAD.

What is transgender?

Transgender describes a person whose gender identity differs from the sex they were assigned at birth.

A person can be transgender without having gone through a transition — the process in which a person brings their gender expression and/or their body into alignment with their gender identity. A transition can include a social transition, legal transition and medical transition.

What is cisgender?

Cisgender refers to a person who is not transgender, and whose gender identity aligns with the sex they were assigned at birth.

Dr. Thaer Ahmad, emergency room physician and assistant program director of the Advocate Christ Emergency Medicine Residency Program, discusses his recent experience volunteering at the Al Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis in the Gaza Strip.

Total Chaos: What A Palestinian American Doctor Saw In Gaza

Thaer Ahmad then walks through his assessment of the already shaky state of the healthcare system in pre-October 7th Gaza, as well as his relationship to the healthcare system, as a first-generation Palestinian-American doctor, before tackling the extensive effort it took to get into Gaza as a healthcare worker. Next, Dr. Ahmad explores the extreme changes in quality of life in Southern Gaza from his previous experiences providing healthcare, parsing through the impact of mass displacement into Rafah alongside the dwindling number of functioning hospitals in the region creating a system of severely overworked, underfunded, and under-resourced healthcare workers.

Dr. Ahmad explores the extreme changes in quality of life in Southern Gaza from his previous experiences providing healthcare, parsing through the impact of mass displacement into Rafah alongside the dwindling number of functioning hospitals in the region creating a system of severely overworked, underfunded, and under-resourced healthcare workers. After looking at the impact of the mass starvation and water scarcity on health, Thaer explores the constant siege on hospitals, even in the south of Gaza, and the clear goal of extending the ethnic cleansing until Gaza is gone, also expanding on the massive impact of the violent occupation on children in Gaza.

God’s Greatest Hypocrisy

I know many of the people who follow my Play Time don’t care for videos, and also many are not interested in bible stuff. However even though this is an animated and a bit over the top portrayal of god, it does lay out some of the biggest sexual hypocrisies of the bible including the one man / one woman joke that many insist the rest of the world follow. Hugs. Scottie

Did you know that God violates his own laws in the bible? In fact, there is an example that is so egregious, complete with the exact reason spelled out, that it is completely indefensible, and anyone who tries must compromise their own moral standard to do so.
