a podcast by ayman makarem. he (and the title) perfectly capture my response and feelings to the current political climate/state of the world.
the last episode I listened to was his discussion with sara-al hassan. her coverage of the war in sudan has taught me so much and I appreciate her work and having access to such detailed information about what’s happening on the ground in sudan. In the podcast though she speaks more personally about her grief, her frustrations, the sudanese peoples relationship with palestinians, and a lot of other things.
It’s a great podcast.

political podcast that often veers into art and culture, mostly just discussions about what’s wrong with the world from a humanist perspective vs any specific political ideology

This podcast usually has a fairly wide range of topics but for months now J.G. Michael has concentrated on the genocide in Palestine with guests that I don't see many other places - an amazing level of depth and knowledge.

I‘m wondering why we stopped having blogs and writing essays? I want to hear people’s thoughts. I want to share my thoughts! and I don’t want to see these thoughts in a few sentences on twitter or a short Instagram post. I need a 1000+ word essay with images, links, references, book recs, and everything else. I wanna know what’s going on inside your brain.

I need to share this list I made because it is such a blessing to me that I can just open youtube or vimeo and watch these lovely little movies. there’s a range of them like bergman, tarkovsky, polish films, art-house, weird matthew gray gubler short, experimental horror, short films from the 20’s. how fun.
