Acclaimed as one of America’s greatest living writers, she blended deeply personal material with themes of mythology and nature.
I think people need to understand that when someone says the situation in Israel/Palestine is complicated they are not necessarily saying that the discussion of who the oppressor vs oppressed is complicated. The Israeli government has been oppressing the Palestinians for a very long time, that is clear, and it is not complicated to understand that at least since the 80s they have had dramatically more financial and military power to keep control of the territory in the way they like.
However, it is reductive and dismissive to insist that there is no complexity in the potential ways to move forward to bring peace to the region. Despite what people on tumblr.edu like to believe, "Israel should never have been created" is not a practical solution to an incredibly heated geopolitical situation in the present day. Israel was created and it does exist. 10 million people live there. 74% of the population is native born and the country has existed for 75 years. Hand waving these fact away with the opinion that "they should move back to where they came from" may make you feel good about being a Radical Leftist, but it does not give anyone a road map for how exactly millions of people without dual citizenship are supposed to just up and evaporate. Nor does it acknowledge the reality that 21% of Israelis are Arabs, the very people you are claiming to want to give the land back to.
Insisting that there's nothing complicated about expecting an entire country's population to willingly dissappear with no consequences is not a productive way to think about this conflict. It ignores the many massive superpowers that have an interest in proping up different states in the region, the power dynamics involved in any land back movements, and the inevitably negative consequences of totally dissolving an established state without a plan. It is also completely and almost comically unrealistic, so much so that it makes it hard to believe that anyone who's opinion starts and ends with this idea really gives a shit about anyone who lives in the area as much as they care about their online leftist clout.
There's nothing complicated in understanding that the Israeli government is and has been maintaining an oppressive apartheid state for decades. It is, however, very complicated to come up with a realistic way to resolve some of the most intricately entangled land disputes on the planet without plunging the region into total chaos. Not everyone has to be deeply educated on every geopolitical situation, but it is very hard to take people seriously when they know nothing about the politics or history of a region and yet insist that there is nothing complicated about it at all.
There's a lot of people on this website who are getting dangerously smug about their own ignorance, and are starting to go down Qanon type anti-intellectual paths in the name of being sufficiently radical. Not knowing the details of a very convoluted land dispute isn't something to brag about online as you call for intentionally reductive solutions. You can support the Palestinian cause and be aware of the oppression they have faced while also holding off on calling people trying to do real analysis and de-escalation work bootlickers. We need to get control of the urge to fit every global issue into a simplistic YA novel narrative structure that appeals to Western revolutionary fantasies.
a test for if a piece of media is good: can u create a jung-esque archetype system with the characters n connections to human nature. No its just tropes and shipping nonsense? Then it sucks
This is me at about 22 right after I came out, cut my hair and attended a gay pride as an out lesbian for the first time. Happy National Coming Out Day to that little baby butch that was me.
I didn’t know it at the time but I was embarking on a truly amazing life adventure.
thinking about that kakapo egg that got crushed but the conservation team patched it up and it survived
life will persist against all odds
For those who don’t follow kakapo conservation, they are critically endangered parrots who only breed on years where the rimu tree they rely on meet a certain threshold of fruit production. One breeding season in 4 years can be typical, and about half of all eggs laid by kakapo are infertile (they still aren’t completely certain why, it could be a recent population bottleneck) so each fertile egg is worth its weight in gold.
This was one of only 5 fertile eggs laid on the Whenua Hou island population in the 2014 breeding season and it got crushed by its mother on accident. It was mended with glue and tape and incubated by the rangers until hatching.
At 150 days old kakapo chicks are officially added to the population total and given a unique name, until then they are given their mother’s name and a number for birth order laid in the clutch. This chick was known as Lisa-one before officially being given the name Ruapuke by local indigenous Ngai Tahu people.Here he is grown up:
It’s sad when a species is so rare we know them all individually but at the same time I love that you can point at this one bird and say oh that’s Ruapuke, his mom sat on him too hard
The little mutual label that appears after your URL in my notifs are friendship bracelets to me btw
At some age, you really shouldn't be making pleas for money via tumblr. If you're 36, you need to have a much better plan b than "ask my mut's" when you find yourself short on rent. Like it's genuinely concerning that so many of you choose to live this way.
Like mutual aid does not mean give me your paycheck because I bought a video game with mine. At some point you have to learn responsibility and self reliance or you're going to stay an ill adjusted loser for your entire adult life.
are we really starting discourse over someone who experienced homelessness saying some people can be irresponsible with money? brb I'm logging off
This is going to sound harsh, but also: if you're crowdfunding using your pet's vet expenses that's highly irresponsible behavior. I get that vet expenses can be high and that your animal's life means the world to you. But, aside from an unforeseen emergency, vet costs are part of the cost of keeping a pet. If you can't afford it, you can't afford to have a pet.
There are resources out there. I've volunteered at several animal shelters, all of whom offer community outreach with greatly reduced vet costs. A couple did free spaying and neutering. There are pet food pantries. Going to social media posting a cute photo of a dog while asking for cash is not responsible pet owner behavior. If you can't afford to have a pet, you could volunteer to foster. If you can't volunteer to foster, you could volunteer to spend time at an animal shelter. If you don't have the ability to do either, what is your actual fitness level as a pet owner?
Asking strangers for money is something that should be reserved for absolute emergencies only. If you keep finding yourself in an emergency situation, that's not a sustainable way of living. Poor people deserve joy and nice things, but not if it keeps you living in a constant state of emergency. (Also, people who keep begging tumblr for money and magically have enough to get through the next month and then beg again are almost certainly being supported by someone offline.)

“I'm so glad I'll never know what my life would've been like without Beyoncé's influence. The way she's taught me and every artist out here to break rules and defy industry norms. Her generosity of spirit. Her resilience and versatility. She's been a guiding light throughout my career and the fact that she showed up tonight was like an actual fairytale. 😇🙏🏼🥹”
