I know it’s not much in the face of everything but I have been finding hope & resilience in palestinian poetry these past few weeks and I created a google drive file of poetry collections by palestinian poets that I will keep updating as I keep on reading. I also recommend checking out @fiercynn’s palestinian poets series for more poets + poetry available online

[firstfullmoon]

I’m unable to share it because I bought the kindle version but HIGHLY recommend maya abu al-hayyat’s collection you can be the last leaf translated by fady joudah. some poems were published here and here

on the fireside today, Aabria said that she spelled Thaisha starting with "Th" because of Thjazi's name, to match his name and indicate they're from the same culture

[quiddie]

A little extra insight here (esp. for those nitpicking the difference in pronunciation) - I think of the orcish "th" more like the Tamil "த" than anything strictly in English. But just like a lot of people that accept imprecise pronunciations of their name outside of native speakers' mouths, the dental stop phoneme that corresponds to "th" became a dental fricative for Thjazi and an alveolar stop for Thaisha.

david lynch - eternity

[ngalitzine]

we owe so much to david lynch when it comes to film and television. so many horror films and shows were directly inspired by his work. but more than that he was such a eccentric weirdo, such a kind man. he was a comforting presence in this world and i'm glad he was here.

I posted it in the wrong format.

Hopefully last one until November.
