THE SIX WIVES OF HENRY VIII

[Chapuys] thought that she [Katharine of Aragon] had been excessively compassionate. Later on in his life he described her as ‘the most virtuous woman I have ever known and the highest hearted, but too quick to trust that others were like herself, and too slow to do a little ill that much good might come of it.’ Excerpt from Catherine of Aragon: Henry's Spanish Queen by Giles Tremlett, published 2010.

i think one of the worst things the left wing internet ever did was push the idea that oppression is basically a virtue, and being oppressed is a sign of your morality. it has made it like…impossible for some of you to hold the idea that most people are privileged in some ways and oppressed in others. AND a lot of you seem to have it in your mind that terrible people cannot be oppressed, and that oppressed people cannot do terrible things, which is a dangerous rhetoric to hold imo.

Ahed Alanqar, who is verified #624 on GazaVetters, is a wonderful friend. It's clear within moments of speaking to him that he carries a deep compassion for everyone he meets, and everything around him. The world around him has not always returned this compassion. Before the war started, Ahed owned an aluminum manufacturing workshop with his father, and a house where he lived with his family, including three young daughters. Today, he is surviving off of donations.

Ahed is devoted to his daughters, and when he speaks with me about Iman, who is seven years old, I feel his love for her like it's my own. He told me, "I swear to you, I don't know the taste of sleep, and I stay up many nights thinking about this child and how I will help her." In his own words, his family is his whole life. Iman was injured on her way to a grocery store, when a house nearby was bombed. A large stone struck her feet, causing constant pain and difficulty walking. Iman requires an open reduction and internal fixation surgery on her feet — as Ahed describes it, this is a difficult and expensive surgery, which involves inserting metal plates to hold her bones together for a year until they heal. Because of the blockade and lack of resources in Gaza, Iman must be evacuated outside of Gaza for the procedure. This would be challenging under normal circumstances, but for Ahed's family right now, it won't be possible without donations. Please share his campaign, donate what you can, and remember their story; don't let this fade away. Everyone on here can do something to help.

“Haha remember when murder-hornets were gonna be a thing? What a nothingburger.”

Yes, because the Washington state government activated like a sleeper-cell and ruthlessly, systematically hunted them down and annihilated them.

“Y2K came to nothing amirite?”

Yes because an army of software engineers working around the clock, losing sleep, and busting ass till the last minute prevented it from happening.

“Remember the hole in the ozone layer?”

You mean the one that was fixed through rigorous world wide government action?

One of the root problems of our society is a refusal or inability by media to articulate that all those “it’s gonna be an apocalypse” disasters were not disasters because we collectively did something about them.

The good news is this is actually quite correctable. I maintain my firm belief that we as humans are capable of solving almost all of our problems, when we decide to do so.

And I still think that’s going to happen. I don’t know when or how, but I do know that abandoning hope won’t help bring it about.

And I refuse to let the cynics own a chunk of my heart.
