I really appreciated this especially amidst all the discourse around the Palestinian-Israeli conflict. It seems like you have to pick a side in order to not be seen as a "genocider" and if you ask any questions or don't get your news from the "correct" sources you personally are enabling the ethnic cleansing. It's frustrating and I really wish there was more space to ask questions, because we really need that space for discussion/questions if we want to help people.

Thanks so much for this and all the work you're doing, Clementine! I know I've said this recently and I feel like praise porn can get old quickly, so I won't keep commenting rah rah on everything you write (I'll limit myself to every few months 😂 and eventually I'll probably have something substantive to say about the topic at hand), but rest assured: you're doing inspirational work, and it's helping me in my life. Thank you.

In this case, I was working on a Sunday night because I got bills to pay. I took a brief break and read this and teared up, reminded of how sacred this life is, how much we have at stake, and how I have the agency to make a difference.

Again: thank you.
