I think this is a good opportunity to educate people on the history of Palestine, the Nakba, and how it happened to show why what's happening today has been happening for the last century. Here's a documentary series that uses archival footage, official documentation, Israeli and Arab historian accounts, and personal accounts from Palestinian refugees to tell the story of the colonization of Palestine. Remember to click the Read More in the link to look at the episodes.

Even if you don't plan on watching it, I would still appreciate if you could share this so access to this knowledge is more widespread.

please help a second generation Palestinian American escape a toxic prejudice household and  afford a couple months of rent & food!!!!

hi everyone.  i’ve known my situation was getting bad for a while.  i’ve been living with three friends since 2019, who’ve shared the rent with me since we graduated from university. at first it was fine.  we knew each other well enough because we took a class together.  the problem is, they are racist.  at first they hid it behind jokes, but as the months have gone on they’ve been increasingly more open about it.. particularly one of the girls, who will scoff at my rituals, and one time hid my hijab. when i was late to work she laughed and said it was a joke.   i’ve wanted to leave for a while but i don’t have the money.  with palestine getting constant news coverage  –  their gross comments have gotten worse, to the point that i don’t feel safe anymore.  please help me afford a couple months of rent and food so i can get on my own two feet. please please please.

gofundme.       paypal.       goal:  $5000

With that post you reblogged "how charles should look" isn't it racist to portray him with red undertones? The one on the left looks suspiciously red :/

I personally don't think there's any red undertones I think it's just the color of the background they used. However, I'm not a visual artist so if anyone who does dabble with it can color pick it can do so.

@joellcore I'm sorry to bother you friend but with my non-artist eyes do you think there's any red undertones?

[joellcore]

[this is the post in question if anyone’s wondering]

the reason why the one on the left looks particularly more red is because of the background color. in actuality, the difference between the two colors is very minimal (but there is a difference)

the one on the left is slightly lighter and more saturated than the one on the right, though the brighter orange background color makes this difference appear more noticeable. it’s an important exercise in how background color can affect how skin tone looks.

still, the one on the right is the most accurate and i’d stick to using that one.

jewish =/= israeli btw

not all jews are israeli and most jews worldwide are abhorred by israel’s actions. there are palestinian jews too. dont turn this into antisemitism (hatred of All jews), make sure it stays anti-Zionism (anti-israel’s colonization of palestine)

[unexplained-events]

Just wondering why you hate Israel so much. Do you not think Israel has the right to exist?

You’re wondering why I hate a settler-colonial state that is ethnically cleansing a group of people through violence and a racist legal system? Would you like me to apologize for not being ethically/morally bankrupt? Would you like to ask me why I’m against war crimes and human right violations too?

"Does Israel have the right to exist?” is an intentionally vague and tricky question. The full question is:

“Does Israel have the right to exist at the cost of Palestinian lives” and the answer is NO

Israel does not have the right to ethnic cleansing, settler-colonial displacement, discriminatory legislation, human rights violations, and war crimes.

thats it im brushing my hair back to how it was before this is going to drive me insane

[joellcore]

i rlly want my mom to stop drinking i want to get rid of my ptsd i want to just . not have any issues in my brain that make everything so difficult. i cant live here anymore but theres really no other choice right now. i hate that she gets drunk every night its 5pm and shes drunk again and i just want her to stop drinking and i want to stop being so hyperaware of it i just want it to stop!!!

i just want to go back to when things felt normal, im so so so tired of fighting with my brain, im tired of having a war going on in my head and not being able to really honestly get it to be better because nothing helps. talking to people about it doesnt help writing about it doesnt help nothing fucking helps and im miserable and im so so so tired “hey maybe you should go back to therapy joel” im never fucking going back to her. she fucking told me that i mustve had romantic feelings for my abuser and i was just denying it im never ever fucking going back and the worst part, the WORST part is that im terrified that she was right maybe i am denying it maybe im that sick and that fucking twisted it just... god. i do not want to fucking do this shit. i want it to be better. its been a year i want it to be better.

"sex scenes have no narrative purpose" is such a funny take on so many levels. people will really believe that the whole human experience is valuable to portray artistically except sex, which of course has never held emotional weight or significance for anybody

[utopians]

"what's the purpose of sex scenes in media??" well you see sometimes people have sex. sometimes it can be important even
