here’s a challenge for some of you: address your failures in upholding members of our community without immediately jumping to sexualizing them and fetishizing them
I am Maram Al-Nabulsi, I currently live in the completely destroyed 🏚🚀city of Gaza
, specifically Khan Younis.
Since the war on Gaza began on 10/7/2023, my family and my siblings - have been living in constant fear, crying and suffering because of shrapnel, shells and bullets. We have no food🥘🌯
, no electricity, no schools
, no cooking gas
, no homes🏚, no cleaning supplies, no clothes🧣🧥🧤
. Our house was completely destroyed
. My school was bombed, and my sister Nour's university was turned into rubble, which deprived us all of education. The war forced us to live in displacement centers, which are just tents that are not suitable for living
, especially in winter. Every day we live death, terror and panic a thousand times because of the continuous bombing of my city. The war has killed more than 50 of my relatives and neighbors. At the beginning of the war, we took refuge in my aunt's house, but it was also turned into rubble.
Imagine:
We have escaped imminent death more than 20 times,
and have been displaced between shelters more than 13 times. My brothers and I have suffered from many diseases due to malnutrition, and we need medicine constantly. If we stay in Gaza, we may lose our lives. Recently, we have been seriously considering leaving Gaza to a safe place. However, the travel costs are very high. We need more than 70 thousand dollars to leave Gaza. Due to the exorbitant prices, rampant unemployment, insecurity, the ongoing blockade, and the continuous bombing, we have lost all our money. How can we live in such insecurity💔🙏, with the constant bombing and shrapnel flying above us? My dear compassionate friends around the world, with your generous donations, even if small, you can save 5 people from imminent death, allowing us to start a life outside Gaza full of love, peace, and hope. Best regards from Gaza City....🍉🇵🇸

‘If you can wait one more hour,’ Erik said, ‘I can walk you home. I have an umbrella with me.’
From @idnis incredible Nicky/Erik fic that I had to put down multiple times because reading it in public is impossible it’ll make you smile too goddamn much
I got the inspiration for this kind of style from this beautiful captive prince artwork, give the artist some love!
The wording is so. I mean, someone who has never experienced physical violence would hardly react so calmly and ready to take a punch. Jean would never hit Jeremy, but someone clearly did.
Yeah I know Jeremy is a guy who plays contact sport, but this is different. To be injured in a scrimmage, to be slammed into the wall on court and to be physically assaulted outside the game are not the same thing.
As for me Jeremy doesn’t look like a type who was fighting boys in school corridors ending up with a black eye every Thursday. The boy is a lover not a fighter lmao. I bet he doesn’t even know how to throw fists, probably same as Neil.
It’s also obvious that Mathilda never put a hand on Jeremy. She’s abused him mentally, but not physically I assume. Trent Knox came to mind because of all that “yes sir” bullshit, but Jeremy was so startled by Jean’s confession there. And “I can’t even imagine” line is clear enough.
His hookups bruised him (at least once), however I doubt any of these assholes ever hit Jeremy. His sex life is kind of rough, but the thing is his bestie Laila would NEVER tolerate such violence. She would lock Jeremy in her house the second he shows up with bruises that might be not from rough sex. In the hotel scene Laila was ready to intervene and she did! This girl knows Jeremy, she wouldn’t allow anything like that.
So. Is it Bryson who was violent with Jeremy?
What the hell?? This is not a proof at all, but could be read as a hint as well. Could Bryson possibly get violent with Jeremy when no one’s looking? He has anger issues and blames his brother for everything that happened to their family, this could escalated to threats and aggression and maybe physical attacks as well.
The way Jeremy was scared here might be because of Bryson’s threats and his visit alone, but it also could mean he was afraid to be slapped in front of his friends?? The way Bryson shows up “Here is Johnny!” style is meant to be scary btw. It definitely is, for Jeremy. And Bryson seems to know the effect he has on his brother.
Honestly if Bryson ever threw hands on Jeremy… throwing him into the windshield wasn’t enough.
yall gotta learn the difference between "this character is an asshole" and "this character was supposed to be super cool but the author is an asshole" and "this character is a teenage girl who was mean once"
don’t get me wrong i love andrew minyard but every time i see a post like “controversial but andrew minyard is literally the most normal man on earth he’s literally done nothing wrong in his entire life” with like one william notes i start frothing at the mouth because first of all why are you making posts engineered in a test tube to be popular in the fandom and then going “unpopular opinion hehe” WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT second of all. be so fr. i get why he did the bros before hoes pact thing but honestly keeping it going through college was catastrophically stupid i’m sorry. also he TRAUMATIZED my poor girl katelyn mackenzie like what did she do to you bro threaten your brother instead
unrelated but kandreil is so scary to me like why is kevin 6’2. why is andrew 5’0. a frankly goofy height difference
i kinda hate how people talk abt kevin’s alcohol addiction sometimes. like it’s not a moral failing and it also is NOT a coping mechanism that should be accepted in the way it is in canon. he deserves a coping mechanism that allows him to actually heal, especially when the nest caused severe harm to his body. like the 16hr schedule, multiple injuries inflicted under the best, and the way disordered eating is present in him and jean was already too much.

Eyad's charity has been progressing thanks to donations from people like you but he's struggling to keep up operations due to the famine imposed on Palestinians because of "Israel" s blockade. Your donations not only aid him and his family but other people in Gaza as well. Remember that they have no access to to food, water, electricity or medicine, and the costs of necessities that are found are extremely high, so any donation counts.
sawasawako has been helping Eyad with his foundation so far, and in the link you can see more explanations about it. The fundraiser is currently at $13,454 USD, more than half the target, and by donating you can help it go further.

As much as I enjoy the concept of kerejean and kevandriel and even kevaaron
I kind of don’t really think it makes sense for Kevin to be with anyone? Even him canonically being with Thea doesn’t really make sense to me (though I haven’t read the extra content so maybe they’re elaborated on there)
But I just cannot picture him wanting to be in a relationship because I can’t picture him doing anything that would take him away from exy
That man’s one true love is and always has been stickball and I don’t see how he has room for anything else
But ugh I can’t wait to get inside his head even thinking about it is making me insane
Agreed! I know the idea of him being with others is interesting and all, but I just can’t picture Kevin with anyone but Thea. It’s genuinely hard for me to wrap my mind around the idea of him being with someone else—especially Andreil (no offense meant, truly! It’s just the way my brain is wired). Thea makes sense to me because they both know what it meant to be in the Nest, and what it means to give your whole mind and focus to Exy. That’s what makes their relationship believable to me.
They understand the intensity that comes with living and breathing Exy. That kind of shared experience creates something that’s nearly impossible to replicate with someone outside that world. And that’s why it’s hard for me to picture Kevin with anyone else—he’s so driven, so focused, that imagining him prioritizing a relationship over Exy (or even alongside it) feels off. It’s NOT that I think Kevin can’t love or be loved—it’s just that when he does, it would be with someone who truly gets that obsession and doesn’t get annoyed by it or expects/wants him to tone it down.
That’s why Thea.
She makes sense in a way others don’t.
(And I also know a lot of people in this fandom hate her, but that hate too never made sense to me.)
That’s all. And also—if any of this comes off as rude, I promise it’s not intentional. My English is really shit, (it's neither my first language nor second) and I always worry my tone might sound off, so I usually keep my opinions to myself. But I just had to say this one.
Anyway, whether or not this makes sense to anyone else—I CANNOT WAIT to see what Nora has planned. Just thinking about getting into Kevin’s head is making me go completely insane.
I didn’t say it was okay, I just wanted to point out that Thea only knew that apparently Jean was consenting to it. And he doesn’t deny it years later. It is week re that a ~25-26 year old still thinks that a 16 year old being passed around was okay but this because she was groomed into thinking like that by the nest. Don’t you have any compassion for her?
Of course I have compassion for her. Most of the hate I get form the fandom stems from the fact that I consider Thea a victim too. I don't see her as the monstrous Jezebel that corrupted Kevin the way most of the fandom sees her.
That doesn't mean she shouldn't be held accountable for her actions and words?
She knew of the abuse. Like all Ravens knew of the abuse.
The current Ravens all blame Jean for it, call him a whore and a traitor and think he deserves what he got.
Now, Thea is not as bad as the current Ravens.
She only had to deal with Riko for a year iirc? Like all the Ravens that graduated before Riko or early on in his rule, her abuse came from the Master's "discipline". Riko never had any reason to harm an asset like her. Thea's failings were for the Master and his cane to deal with. If Riko was feeling particularly sadistic at any point, he had Jean to take it out on during that year of overlap with Thea.
As a result Thea is not as bad, as bitter, as sadistic as the current Ravens. But that doesn't mean she's good.
She's a victim too, but that doesn't mean we should justify what she says and does, because what she says and does directly harms others.
(current Ravens vs average Ravens is such an interesting subject; imo Thea represents the average Raven, raised under the Master's abuse but relatively free from Riko's influence; current Ravens are an extreme version, a direct result of Riko's rule of terror; in the future Andrew and Neil's pro team is coached by an average ex Raven and they fit right in, they like it when they had not liked their previous teams coached by normal people; meanwhile a current Raven doesn't belong anywhere near an Exy court)
