people comparing pakistan to gaza is pissing me off so bad

[guldaastan]

pakistan is a nuclear power. it is also occupying kashmir. it has committed genocide. it caused the death of around 300,000- 3,000,000 bangladeshis in 1971.

gaza is an open air prison which is under occupation. it is currently going through a genocide. it is slowly being starved by israel.

i'll probably die looking for love i needed to give myself in some dusty ass man

[darkbicademia]

I can’t smoke no more

Your mouth tasted like cigarettes

I can’t love no more 

Your caress was the last thing I ever felt

I can’t sleep no more

My mind keeps playing our old images

I can’t cry no more

My heart has been numbed to everything

I pocket my vape and walk out the bathroom floor

Your mouth tasted like cigarettes.

Why tf did they spell that u with an umlaut. It's pronounced like /u/ not /y/. Is this a "the author doesn't know how to write" problem or is the Romanisation system he uses just idiotic

[gabagoofs]

its Wade–Giles, which is a 19th century way of romanizing Mandarin, it sucks really bad and it makes reading this book VERY difficult lmao

“To try to not be more interesting but be more interested” literally changed my life perspective btw

[stuckinapril]

To do things not for the sake of coming off a certain way or fitting a certain aesthetic or to grab ppl’s attention more …. But to simply do them bc you’re curious and invested and would do them regardless of whether anyone was perceiving you or not …. That is literally the point

Indians and Chinese people make up such a huge chunk of the planet and yet people in the west think it’s a radical idea to conceptualize them as human

[junglejim4322]

Still baffled by people saying shit like “white westerners*” in response to this do you actually think white people are the only people capable of racism or that there’s no nonwhite people who see people from the third world as subhuman
