Google has just erased Palestine from its maps.
- First, they erased Palestinian homes from the grounds. Then they erased Palestine citizens from their existence. Now they are using internet to erase them from our sight. What a pathetic breed Zionists are, this isn't even murder. Its GENOCIDE!
There is no Palestine, that is Israel. They fought for it and earned it with blood, just like every other country in the Middle East
‘That entire are looks like it’s part from Israel’
Son, I have news for you…
Google finally does something right.
Nice.
Idk why Palis are bitching about this. Better google removes you from the map than Israel.
A cleaner google maps
^^^ proof of the Palestinian genocide ladies and gents et all!!!
Damn bro
Those were some of the ugliest comments I’ve ever read.
Palestine has my heart.

Bonjour, nous sommes Katarina et Violeta. Nous adorons la mode.
a darkened auditorium with 264 silent people in the seats. on the stage, me, sitting on a stool, lit by a spotlight, the only light in the theatre. i hold up a photo of my cat, 10 people applaud, two or three hold up photocopies of the same photo, the rest do nothing, watching, waiting.

How Did This Crab Get A Knife
“The Roomy Dodge”
— “yesterday we discovered the Victorian word for ‘manspreading’”
OMG.
‘Reasoning would be lost on anybody who could do such a thing’ fairly well sums up the experience of much of the modern world. :)
here’s the deal with self care, for me:
pleasure, in the fun late-capitalism hellhole of present-day america, is treated like a luxury. it’s expensive. it’s frivolous. it’s guilty. if we want to eat ice cream out of the carton and be socially acceptable at the same time, we’d better have earned that ice cream. maybe by like running a marathon or getting dumped by an asshole. if we’re going to duck into the corner store and buy fresh flowers, it’s because we’ve had a hard week, not because flowers are nice. we can take a day off work, but only if we’re sick. we have to suffer before we’re allowed extra kindness.
in this equation pleasure is optional (irresponsible, even), except when it’s a balm for suffering.
however! we need pleasure to live. a life without nice feelings in it is like a diet with no vitamins in it. it’ll make you sick and eventually it’ll kill you. we know this because people with depression stop feeling pleasure, and they often kill themselves. left untreated, depression is a fatal disease.
pleasure is not optional. pleasure is not a luxury. without it, we die. that is literally the opposite of a luxury.
because pleasure is treated like a luxury, and priced accordingly, it is fucking hard to get. it’s hard to take time to relax and see loved ones when corporations aren’t required to offer paid vacation. it’s hard to buy that special face scrub or art print or pretty yarn when it costs $35 and student loans are breathing down your neck. so pleasure gets saved up for when things are really bad. pleasure gets budgeted. pleasure, once again, becomes something we have to earn by abstaining and hurting and gritting our teeth.
do this to people long enough and pleasure becomes potently associated with guilt. this thing we need desperately to stay alive is suddenly something we can’t seek out without looking over our shoulder and wondering if we’re allowed to have it.
that’s why it’s so important that we talk about self care, and tell ourselves and each other that it is okay to do things that feel good. it is necessary to do things that feel good. we have to uncouple suffering and pleasure, because the idea that we have to earn feeling good by first feeling bad is monstrous and wrong.
take care of yourselves, darlings. don’t feel bad about it.

Good thing I wore barely any makeup because using only Cetaphil to remove makeup is like using a feather to remove gum from your shoe.
“Good thing I barely wore makeup because using Cetaphil to remove makeup is like using a feather to remove gum from your shoe.”
Single people want relationships, settled people wonder if they’re missing out on something, traveling types miss stability, stable ones are restless, old friends want new friends, new friends miss old friends, and basically almost everyone my age has some dangling worry trailing around after them everywhere that they’re somehow not doing everything, that what they’re doing is not altogether the right thing, that they are missing out. … Do not be ashamed. The doubt is natural, and everyone you know – yes, even that person – carries it sometimes too. Allow yourself to be peaceful. Allow yourself satisfaction in what you have. If you really don’t like it, allow yourself permission to make changes.

I’ve been mad about being the OP of this quote but I just realized that maybe it’s actually really good to be reminded of this 60 damn times a day…
