"...By the authority of his tranquil eye, that young man, who alone had no wound, superb, bloody, fascinating, indifferent as if he were invulnerable, compelled that sinister mob to kill him -- respectfully."

what is grief? is it when achilles held patroclus broken body and screamed at the gods to bring him back? or is it when demeter realized her daughter was with her brother and plunged the world into a harsh coldness? or when icarus fell and daedalus had to search the vast ocean for his fallen son? was it grief when cassandra could not warn troy of its fall and wept as visions of collapsed buildings and burning bodies plagued her? is it grief to be loved by the gods or not at all? is grief all of the above or none at all? i ask again, what is grief?

France's Jews Flee As Rioters Burn Shops To Chants Of 'Gas The Jews'

This shit is getting too real. Why isn’t anyone raising concerns?

[klezmermaid]

there are so many jews on this website who have been “raising concerns” about growing antisemitism. don’t act like no one is saying anything about this just because you aren’t listening to us.

would anyone like a starter?

[comfytaire]

everyone always thinks enjolras is scowling at them but really he’s just trying to focus his eyes because he’s a stubborn asshole who won’t wear his glasses and gets squicked out by contacts

       ’——but, what if the fear of losing everyone again        stops you from doing those things, and what if        tragic ties keep you at home when you truly don’t        want to be there..? Maybe you need to find         someone to start anew with.. just one person.               No, I’m sorry, I ranted on then, I didn’t mean        for that to happen.. I’m Laura, by the way.’

[revolutionnaiire]

"I can't help you there. And I really wish I could, but I'm at as much of a loss as you are. Maybe moreso, it's not something keeping you at home but rather       the guilt of the place that locks you in.       It makes you just want to bolt... And I did after a while. So I'm not one to be doling out the best life advice, Laura. You seem to have a good plan so far."

         Engrossed in the French exhibit, Enjolras couldn't tear himself away. It was all          there ---- from the Sun King to the storming of the Bastille, all except for them.          When the guard called 'closing!', it fell upon deaf ears as the revolutionary fell onto          the bench despondently. It was over. But it still hurt every time he saw it.

       Out of the corner of his eye, he saw something move. Fists clenched, Enjolras        whirled to face the footsteps. When in doubt, be prepared.

               " Hello? Who's there? "

[boundinwolfsbane-archive]

       ’It’s not worth trying when you have        no one to see or places to return to.        But I guess, not everyone is the same.               ——I’m alive, as good as I could         ever be. And yourself?’

[revolutionnaiire]

             "I think it's most important then. You've got a reason to start anew; at that point               you know better that alive is different than living. Then you map out places that               you want to see and meet people to keep in touch with.

              But it's hard. I know, and I'm sorry."
