You just know the NYT has a “style guide” for this sort of thing.
Maybe someone there should get fed up and leak it.

The last words of Aaron Bushnell before he set fire to himself outside the Israeli embassy in Washington - Free Palestine.
The original scene is true: capture photo from video shows #AaronBushnell sets fire while a policeman is pointing a gun at his burning body!! Cop went for gun instead of an extinguisher.
DrSonnet — #CNN #BBC #SKY #NYT,.... SPEAK UP. It's 2024, not... (tumblr.com)
“I will no longer be complicit in genocide. I’m about to engage in an extreme act of protest, but compared to what people have been experiencing in Palestine at the hands of their colonizers, it’s not extreme at all…Free Palestine.” -Aaron Bushnell
"This is what our ruling class has decided will be normal"
-Aaron Bushnell
Shortly before his final act in this world, Bushnell posted the following message on #Facebook: "Many of us like to ask ourselves, 'What would I do if I was alive during slavery? Or the Jim Crow South? Or apartheid? What would I do if my country was committing genocide?' "The answer is, you're doing it. Right now."
RIP Aaron Bushnell.. He decided to be a free man and not to be complicit in #GazaGenocide.. His last words were (Free #Palestine).

EU fails to back Ukraine aid, Orbán leaves the room
European Union leaders agreed to start membership talks with Ukraine despite the ongoing war on its territory, but failed to agree on a 50 billion euro financial aid package for Kyiv due to Hungary’s opposition.
At the Brussels summit, representatives of other countries bypassed Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán’s objections, asking him to leave the room as they took the historic step of agreeing to start EU accession talks with a country at war.
However, they were unable to overcome Orbán ‘s opposition to revising the bloc’s budget to channel financial support to Ukraine and provide more money for other EU priorities, such as changing migration policy.
They ended talks on Friday on a financial package requiring unanimity among the EU’s 27 leaders and said they would resume talks in January, with some expressing optimism that a deal could be reached even then.
Leaders from 26 of the 27 EU member states were satisfied with the compromise budget proposal put forward by summit chairman Charles Michel.

I’m very tired. you probably heard that Russia destroyed the Kakhovka Dam to slow Ukraine’s counter offensive. here’s something I didn’t quite realize: since this February, the Russians operated the dam in juuuuust the right way so that as much water would build up as possible when the snow melted and spring showers started. and then they blew the whole thing up.
40,000 people may need to be evacuated. I don’t really have the energy to say anything else right now.
Hospitallers Medical Battalion: actual angels can confirm. they’re combat-zone medical services - you know how humanitarian groups like MFS and Red Cross have to pause operations due to the Russians fucking shooting at humanitarian zones? yeah, these guys don’t pause for bullets, they fucking walk into them and they bring out anyone they can.
Serhiy Prytula Charity Foundation: you can choose from a number of various fundraiser projects here, if you’re feeling particularly picky. for those of you who balk at the idea of supporting anything military just please remember that things like vehicles and drones aren’t just for military use, they’re also for evacuation and finding the wounded and they’re fucking vital.
KSE Foundation: similar to the above, KSE has multiple projects you can choose from to donate to. looking at it right now, one of the projects with the lowest amounts of money raised thus far - despite being started in April - is Seeds for Ukraine, which will help Ukraine recover from the ecological devastation Russia has been wreaking (and with Ukraine, the countries that rely on Ukraine’s grain exports that Russia keeps trying to steal).
Come Back Alive: do these guys even need the introduction? they’re Come Back Alive. I’m kissing all of them.
United24: Zelenskyy’s brain child, and the official fundraising platform of Ukraine. Mark Hamill recommends the fundraisers for drones in particular.
UAnimals: Nova Kakhovka’s zoo got... pretty much completely swept away. all zoo residents except the birds have drowned. UAnimals has tried throughout the occupation to keep the animals safe, and they’ve been reporting on the status of the zoo. I don’t really know what to say except that I hope they’re able to save the pets and strays in the towns along the river.
You can find NGOs specific to evacuation efforts in this post; please signal boost it as well. I’ve listed them but am leaving the links for the op post.

ukraine may be fighting the biggest modern empire in the world that wants to take its colony back to oppress and subjugate its people and culture as it has been for CENTURIES but that still not anti-imperialistic enough for some people

Not gonna lie, my morale is at the lowest point it's been since the beginning of the invasion. Russians are successfully occupying more and more territories and shell frontline regions every day. People are dying, our culture and herritage is destroyed. International aid dwindled significantly because of american bullshit. Mobilization law has been signed and there is a chance that my family members get conscripted soon. Don't even get me started on internal political problems. A bunch of articles in foreign media talking about our defeat and "peace talks" (what a joke).
It feels like there were no at least moderately good news in a while. On top of that, the feeling that we are screaming into the void is stronger than ever. I'm happy when I see a foreigner online supporting us and spreading the word, because it gets rarer. Ukrainians feel like none of what's happening gets outside our info bubble. Most likely no one but Ukrainians will see this post either. Honestly don't know what to make of all of this.

Zelensky working hard to keep receiving US military aid
Ukraine’s president met with the US defence secretary and the president of Fox TV, which has criticised arms aid to Kyiv, on Monday, according to EL PAÍS.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has called “maintaining sufficient international support for the country for the coming year” a top priority as the military conflict in Ukraine drags on.
Apart from Russian troops, the main threat to Ukraine’s interests is the Republican Party’s legislative blockade of US military aid. Zelensky held two meetings in Kyiv on Monday: with US Defence Secretary Lloyd Austin and the head of Fox television Lachlan Murdoch.
In addition, time is playing against Ukraine. On the tenth of November, the Pentagon warned that it had already used 95% of the $62 billion previously allocated for aid to Kyiv. At the same time, the arsenals of Ukraine’s NATO allies are already not in the best condition, and the head of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, Valery Zaluzhny, admitted in early November that he does not expect the situation with ammunition supplies to improve for at least a year.
