things that are positive

I realize that there is very little actual good news these days, but here are some things that make me not hate everything a little less. 

• Boston Consulting Group CEO apologizes to employees because their own employees gave them shit about partnering with Israel to run food/aid distribution instead of the normal process of distributing aid via UNRWA or the UN - BCG leadership came under fire from staff who said: "Collaborating with a state actor in the midst of a military campaign that has killed tens of thousands of civilians, under the guise of humanitarian aid, is morally indefensible" 
• People keep asking the only Muslim candidate (Mira Nair's son) for mayor of NYC if he supports Israel's right to exist, and he keeps saying he believes in its right to exist as a state with equal rights and this is making everyone crazy. 
• I got mixed up - I didn't realize there were more people out there trying to break the siege - this one is made of Middle Easterners, and I hope they stay alive. You can track the one Greta Thunberg is on here. 
• Anti-ICE protests unfolding in LA. Chickenshit stuff here. 
• I hate him for other things, but Newsom threatening to withhold CA's tax money since Trump wants to defund CA? Good. 
• Congressional candidate Kat Abughazaleh advocating for healthcare for everyone. And refusing to call Musk into the Democratic Party. Unlike Ro Khanna. 
• Sen Chris Van Hollen continuing to advocate for Kilmar Abrego Garcia, after it's being confirmed that he's being brought back to the US to get criminally indicted. 
• I don't care about this other than it being funny but Trump selling his Tesla. And also Trump threatening to look into the government contracts. Yeah, Biden should have done it.
