26 January 2024
Journalist Hossam Shabat documents children in a displaced people’s camp in northern Gaza waiting for food distribution that may not come today. The text reads “يومياً ينتظر هؤلاء الاطفال حتى يحصلوا على الطعام لكن للاسف”, which roughly translates to “Every day, these children wait until they get food, but unfortunately...”
In north Gaza, where food is nearly impossible to find, meals are often only distributed in shelter centers once a day, if even that. Here, food is kept behind a locked gate in order to carefully regulate the remaining supply.

National Big Wig Day
National Big Wig Day is an annual celebration occurring on the last Friday of January. This year it falls on January 26.  It’s a special day that allows anyone not only a place for special recognition as a “big wig” but also for them to showcase their fun sides by donning their favorite silly wigs. Just as people show off those wigs, the goal is to encourage as many people as possible to donate to the activities of the American Cancer Society, to fight the scourge of cancer. People are encouraged to donate as little as $1 for this cause.
History of National Big Wig Day
Today, wearing wigs has become a lifestyle and an important part of fashion in society, but its history dates back many centuries ago. The first record of the use of a wig is in ancient Egypt, where the people protected their shaved heads from the intensity of sunlight and lice by adorning them with wigs. This record is depicted in Egyptian ancient paintings and sculptures.
From the 16th to 18th century, the Europeans started using wigs as a way to combat the proliferation of baldness that ravaged them as a result of a syphilis epidemic. However, after the approval of King Louis XIV, the use of wigs became more pronounced as a form of fashion among the Europeans. Going forward, in the 20th-century wigs became more popular and accepted among women and various kinds and forms of wigs were introduced.
The National Big Wig Day was invented by Patty Sharkey on January 2, 2016. After a melancholic post-holiday, she posted a ‘wigged out’ selfie of herself wearing a raspberry and chocolate-colored curly wig on Facebook and captioned it “Happy National Wig Day.” Surprisingly, the reception was amazing and the responses from the people all around the United States were encouraging. Patty Sharkey thought of a way to share this silliness while creating a charity forum for a cause and came up with the popular National Big Wig Day every last Friday in January.
The major highlight of the National Big Wig Day is to get many people to give at least a dollar. The goal of the fundraising is to see that one million people give one dollar each to the American Cancer Society Look Good/Feel Better division. As a tradition, Sharkey nominates a Big Wig who inspires affection in all of us. And as we celebrate today, know that you have a Big Wig in you.

Why We Love National Big Wig Day
It brings out our awesomeness
Raising funds to help others
It unites us
National Big Wig Day brings out the awesomeness in us. We firmly believe that you are the biggest inspiration in your life; you’re the “big wig” of your life, and your essence and awesomeness are not tied to your clothing size, model of car, or job title, but the quality of your deeds.  This day reminds us that we are fabulous, together.
National Big Wig Day is so important to us because we can donate funds to people who are suffering illnesses that endanger their lives and might put them in wig-wearing positions, like cancer. We encourage you to donate to this cause.
It is so amazing how both young and old from different backgrounds and religious inclinations come together on this day to celebrate National Big Wig Day and raise funds to support people battling cancer. This day unites us and encourages us to support each other irrespective of our color or creed.

Guaxinim: How could have an incredible life if I don't share it with you by my side?
Pac: [Grabs his mic and leans into it] All of that could change today. We're entering a new universe of a thousand possibilities where, theoretically, I think we will live together. You know? Maybe in the same group, on the same team, I don't know. And I didn't want to say anything, but canonically, in this universe... I'm single, there is no Fit. Just warning you. As Foolish would say, "Wink!"
[He tries and fails to wink]
Pac: My God, I don't know how to wink. My god in heaven, I did everything wrong here guys. Forgive me.
[ Translation note: I'm not a native Portuguese speaker, so as usual, if you have any translation suggestions or corrections, please feel free to let me know so I can edit things accordingly! ]

January 26 is 'Australia Day', AKA 'Invasion Day' or 'Survival Day'.
There will be protest rallies around the country.
The following text is via 'WAR: Warriors of the Aboriginal Resistance':
2024 INVASION DAY RALLY - MELBOURNE — Wurundjeri and Boon Wurrung Lands
Invasion Day Rally Melbourne
10AM Friday 26 January 2024
Parliament House Victoria.
We continue to call for treaty, truth and justice for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people.
The 26th January, Australia Day is not a day to celebrate. It is an annual reminder of invasion, occupation, genocide and the ongoing impacts of colonisation that continues to destroy our lives, our lands and our waters. As the oldest living culture in the world, it is our right and our responsibility as First Nations people to protect our country, culture and our people. That is why we meet this day with protest and mourning, as one of the longest standing protests in the world.
A Dawn Service will be held at 5am at Kings Domain Resting Place, Linlithgow Avenue. This will be followed by the Invasion Day Rally where we will be meeting at 10am at the Victorian Parliament on Spring St and marching to Flinders St Station.
In recent months, distinct lines have been drawn both nationally and globally, marking those who endorse settler colonialism and those uniting to resist the enduring colonial forces that we strive to counteract. The repercussions of settler colonialism have been starkly illustrated in the ongoing genocide of Palestinians by Israel, supported by all other settler colonial states, including Australia.
In the wake of the unsuccessful 'Voice' campaign, the imperative to ensure the resonance of Indigenous Rights campaigns across the nation has become increasingly apparent. The concluded 'Voice' campaign exposed our community to reprehensible levels of vitriol from racists, sparking discussions about our humanity. This unsettling experience highlighted the perils of misinformation and disinformation during the referendum, aimed at demonising the Indigenous struggle. In response to these challenges, we are taking to the streets to demand treaty, truth, and justice for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people.
On this Invasion Day, as on every such occasion, we stand united for our families, communities, and all, asserting that all Black Lives Matter.
The Australia colony is a racist nation: there is no other conclusion from the referendum. We know and live this every day. Reconciliation is dead.
We want our land back now!
Join us in our fight to Abolish Australia Day.
We demand:
Treaty/Treaties
Land back and land rights - stop selling land promised to us
End Aboriginal deaths in custody
Climate justice
End the theft of Black children and return all Black children to their families and kin
Abolish police and prisons
Reparations
The Australian government stop arming Israel
We call on everyone to respect our demands and take action with us. We also remind attendees that COVID19 is still impacting our communities and we encourage all attendees to wear a mask, bring hand sanitiser and take all necessary precautions to keep each other safe.
Warriors of the Aboriginal Resistance will be available for media interviews in the lead up to the rally. Please email [email protected] for interviews.

day 26 - 1/26/24 - painter in the woods
sometimes, when wandering out in the woods, you will encounter a painter, working diligently on its next piece, and it will ask you what you think of its artwork. if you are honest, and offer constructive criticism, it will reward you with a generous bag of gold and thank you. however, if you are dishonest, and say that you like its painting in order to appease it, it will trap your soul inside of one of its paint buckets and force you to live as one of its tools until the bucket's contents run dry. that, or you will be the one supplying its red paint.
