Counting the dead in Gaza: difficult but essential

By June 19, 2024, 37 396 people had been killed in the Gaza Strip since the attack by Hamas and the Israeli invasion in October, 2023, accor

It’s practically 2014 and you guys still don’t know how to google if an article is real or not before giving it 100,000 notes

why are plus size stores even still trying to sell us thongs at this point. i don't care if that waistband fits my birthing hips when the one-inch-fabric-strip cupping my labia minora with the tenderness of a lover is literally the only thing standing between my cunt and the ravaging force of raw denim jeans. fat pussy spilling out the sides tiptoeing across the floor to keep the laws of physics from trying to slide the crotch to the side like an over-eager movie theater date. it's not sustainable

such is the duality of the queers

when i read some takes about rhaenicent it’s like well of course some of you haven’t been psychosexually obsessed with one girl you have an on-and-off friendship with for more than a decade of your life. which is really good for you. i wouldn’t recommend it generally. but unfortunately in this case it means you will simply never get it

alicent feels the vibrations of rhaenyra kissing another woman and immediately goes to drown herself in the lake. real lesbian representation right there

Trying to fall asleep in summer is much like the dilemma described in Katy Perry’s hit song Hot N Cold (2008).

Allow me to demonstrate. I am not a visual artist, but I will attempt to communicate my point. If any actual visual artists would like to improve upon this, please feel free.

Well, I can’t sleep for SOME REASON, so here’s more.

I find that society wants trauma survivors who are soft. Survivors who are kind. Survivors who feel they’ve come out better because of their trauma. They want this so they can validate themselves and believe in “everything happens for a reason” because it makes them feel better.

But you don’t exist to make other people feel better. If you came out bitter, and hardened, that’s okay. If you don’t believe it made you stronger, then that’s okay!

My trauma didn’t make me stronger. I’m not “better” for my trauma. I didn’t need my trauma. My trauma just hurt. And I’m not going to pretend otherwise to make others feel comfortable.

June 16, 2024 - Hundreds of students, many wearing keffiyehs and waving Palestinian flags, walked out of Stanford University's graduation ceremony in protest of Stanford's ties with Israel and its genocide of the Palestinian people. [video]

Do not insult my intelligence

Zionists will try to pretend americans can't possibly understand what is going on in Palestine. That WE are the ones projecting. Fools, we see right through yalls bullshit because it's the same bullshit our ancestors pulled you fuckin numbskulls. Israel is just trying to do what settlers in "america" did to native americans. Only they are flopping so hard because they are trying to do what was done in the 18th century in the 21st century. It wasn't right then, it's not right now.

There is no justification for genocide. You cannot target civilians. You cannot target schools, hospitals, humanitarian aid. You cannot restrict humanitarian aid. You cannot deny people living on the land for thousands of years their homes. You cannot remove them from their homes. You cannot arrest them indefinitely without justification. You cannot greenwash Palestine. You cannot pinkwash genocide. You cannot hide your bloody hands by spewing lies. I can see and hear at the same time and I am no fool to your denials.

Israel must topple and Palestine will be free to self-determination and those who are capable of living alongside those with a different life can continue to do so in peace with equal rights for all. There is enough pie to go around. Palestinian freedom is not jewish expulsion. it is not antisemetic to criticize israel. it is not antisemetic to say free palestine. stop conflating things.
