Surya Bonaly became a sports icon during the 1998 Winter Olympics after landing the then-banned backflip during her figure skating routine.
Wael Tarabishi was a 30 year old disabled man who's father Maher was his full time caregiver. ICE took Maher in October, leaving Wael without support. He died three months later.
2025 was the deadliest year on record for ICE.
People are dying in the camps.
They’re dying in the streets.
US citizens have been shot and killed.
These are just the deaths we know about.
Then there’s the deaths you won’t hear as much about.
The disabled. The vulnerable. The homeless or anyone labelled “expendable”.
Never forget that fascism and eugenics go hand in hand.
My latest is about Wael Tarabishi, a 30 year old disabled US citizen who relied on his father for full time care.
ICE grabbed Maher when he showed up for his yearly immigration check in.
Wael pleaded for his release. He told ICE he would die without his caregiver.
They didn’t care. Wael died three months later.
His dad never got to say goodbye.
His story deserves to be told.
ICE ensured his last months were filled with unnecessary pain and suffering.
They killed Wael:

Surya Bonaly, a Black woman, performed an "illegal" backflip in which she landed on the blade of one skate in the 1998 Nagano Winter Olympics.
Craft on the Production Line
Everywhere, advice on how to write faster. A novel in four months, a blog post a day, Substack longform in an hour.
Write quicker. Publish more. Optimise. Optimise. Optimise.
This essay argues for something else.
Speed doesn’t just change how we write, it changes what can be written at all.

Oura is trying to relax wearable regulation, but wellness is already a confusing term.
This is the post I don’t think many people expected me to write, and I have (rightly!) surrounded myself with people who are generally uncomfortable to somewhat hostile to “AI”, mostly for good reasons, though I’ll get into the many caveats on that as I go.
