So here’s what’s going to happening instead: Nabil has been removed Gaza Verified (

Screenshot of Signal message from Nabil Zaqout to me. The full text is in the alt text of the Mastodon screenshots apart from this section: Do you think I believed you when I asked you why you were doing this to the people of Gaza, and you told me we're all human and we empathize with each other?

Screenshot of direct message from Nabil: Nabil @10h @seengoals@mastodon.social @aral Don't test my intelligence or make me angry.

I don't want any other talk. Will you support this campaign of mine: chuffed.org/project/urgent-nab... or not?
Private Mastodon message from Nabil to me: @ 10h. @seengoals@mastodon.social @aral I know what this campaign is that appears to be for someone from Gaza, and it's basically for you personally. I analyzed it, and it's for someone supposedly from Rafah, who knows nothing about it. I'm currently in Egypt, and this is my campaign: chuffed.org/project/urgent-nab... I've discovered that more than one celebrity who supposedly supports the people of Gaza is actually exploiting this to create a campaig…
Three private messages from Nabil to me: • 10h @seengoals@mastodon.social @aral I certainly won't tell you the details of the conclusive evidence for what I'm saying, so you don't delete it and protect yourself. I'll just give you clear hints. If you want to verify what I'm saying, simply ignore me again, and you'll see the evidence in the media and trending topics. @ Private mention Nabil @seengoals@mastodon.social @aral & of course, I'll release a video myself to explain everything and show …

The biological necessity of boredom in the age of screens
Neurologist Richard Cytowic argues that attention is a finite energy budget, and modern life is engineered to exhaust it.
