Jewish students participating in pro-Palestine protests on their campuses would have valuable things to say about the alleged "rising antisemitism" at their schools. But the media is ignoring them.

@mondoweiss @palestine @israel Media have been instructed from "above" to do this, which will also need to be addressed.

@ai6yr @ClimateJenny A rotary might actually connect? Or does the rotary signal even work over the lines now? For years I have been hanging onto landline phones that I knew would work in a power outage. Not any more, but that's about connecting to the modem.

My dad used to maintain the tel exchange room at the Georgia Railroad. He would take me in the room, point to a thing like a ratchet that would start clanking down from the top and say, "there's the boss making a call now."

We often hear about there being, for example in the US, a two-tier system.

What is that exactly, you may ask.

Imagine a lifeboat in shark-infested waters. there's room in the boat for 12, and there are 24 people.

The ones in the water, for example you and I, are in the second tier.
