‘The Kiss’ by Eddy Varekamp, Dutch
The glamour archives #5
I personally don’t find Jacob Elordi particularly attractive, just for my taste, (which I realize is an unpopular opinion) but the cinematography and Oliver’s obsession with him in Saltburn had me convinced he was actually the absolute prettiest thing I’ve ever seen for the whole 2+ hours it was on
PLEASE WATCH AND REBLOG - DON'T JUST LIKE - THANK YOU
BISAN IS AFRAID THIS MAY BE HER LAST VIDEO. THE OCCUPATION IS PLANNING TO INVADE NASSER HOSPITAL IN KHAN YUNIS, THE LAST FUNCTIONING HOSPITAL IN THE GAZA STRIP.
SHE WANTS PEOPLE TO SHARE THIS. PLEASE, PLEASE REBLOG.
Either the original post was deleted by instagram or herself but she posted a similar video to the previous one
[Audio transcription:
“Hey everyone, this is Bisan from Gaza. I'm still alive, I'm surviving after the day 3 after 100 [103], but that might be the last day or the last night in Nasser Medical Complex as the hospital is near to the invasion. The tanks are maybe 40-50 meters away from us, the soldiers as well. So the situation is really hard. The carpet bombing before this moment was just, yaani, unbelievable [sound of explosions] unbelievable. The bombings are really loud and are so close to us. The situation is complicated. I'm trying to find any internet connection to tell you what is happening, but [sound of rapid gunfire] Nasser Medical Complex is now near to be invaded. It's the last functioning hospital. I'm trying to find any internet connections [sound of another explosion] so I can tell you what is happening. The carpet bombing, the ambulances could not even reach the injuries or the people were killed and injured because of the carpet bombing in the areas of Batn Al-Sameen, Qizan an-Najjar, Jouret Al-Lout, the west and the south of Khan Yunis refugee camp. People who are displaced inside the hospital, dozens of thousands are just moving randomly — cannot find any place to go, they tried to go to the schools around the hospital or even to the refugee camp itself to find any safe place while the carpet bombing and the bombings — in general were, yaani, ongoing during their evacuating so it was and still so dangerous for people. The medical staff, the ambulances, many people also evacuated the hospital and that's so dangerous, this is the last functioning hospital in Gaza. That means that thousands of injuries are still now alone in the hospital. Displaced people are alone in the hospital. They are besieged, we are besieged, I don't know if I can survive this or go anywhere. I'm just alone. Alone as thousands, alone as many in other hospitals were before, in Al Shifa Hospital, and the Indonesian Hospital, and Kamal Adwan, it's a war against hospitals, against children, against women, against people with disabilities and injuries. People are just dying. I'm now talking to you in a risky place, in a dangerous place just watching everything and hearing everything by my ears, and by my eyes, to not tell you anything that's not true — it's true, they are invading the hospital, I'm trying now to upload this, to leave the phone uploading this and just to get away from here. If I could get back to the phone, and see if it's published I will, if I couldn't then that should be my last video. I'm still alive, but I don't know if I'm surviving this night. It's now 12:32 a.m., 17th of January 2024. Salam.”

the cathedral of st. james in jerusalem, palestine. this is the principal church of the armenian patriarchate in jerusalem.
the armenian community in palestine is one of the oldest continuous diaspora communities in the world - dating back to the 1st century. though this church was founded in the 4th century, the current structure was built in the 12th.
jerusalemite armenians are currently facing violent landgrabs by an israeli real estate company. please donate to their legal fund to help protect the armenian quarter! you can follow the twitter account savethearq for more details/updates as well!!
[ID: A video recording of Bisan Owda, filming herself standing still and speaking in front of a car underneath the morning sky in Gaza, with the sun visible above her head. Loud sirens can be heard around her as she says:
"Hey, everyone. This is Bisan from Gaza. We're still alive, and we wish you a merry Christmas in the Christmas eve. Wish you a merry Christmas despite the churches of Gaza are closed, full of displaced people, and surrounded with snipers. We wish you a merry Christmas despite the children, women, men, Christians and Muslims of Gaza are murdered and under genocide. We wish you a merry Christmas despite that we cannot exchange gifts or spend our holidays in our homes because they are completely destroyed, and merry Christmas despite there are hundreds of killed, decomposed bodies in the the north of Gaza Strip in the streets, at least 137 them are field executed by the Israeli soldiers in front of their children. Merry Christmas, but pray for Gaza."

Please think about why these videos are coming out in English. In your tongue, so that you can understand them. Don't ignore them or get tired of seeing them or call them guilt-trippy. Don't stop talking about Palestine. Make Palestine impossible to ignore. Even at the cost of "disrupting" your celebrations.
“The question now becomes: Will the world respond, or will Armenians face another genocide alone?”
Azerbaijan has restricted movement of people, goods, and aid into and out of Nagorno-Karabakh for 258 days, strangling the residents' access
The former chief prosecutor of the International Criminal Court is warning that Azerbaijan is preparing genocide against ethnic Armenians in
Tens of thousands of refugees fled to Armenia. Your help is urgently needed today.
The fact that there was an international outcry over the burning of Notre Dame , but not a single word uttered for the desecration and destruction of worship places, archives and libraries of Gaza and rest of Palestine ,many of which are FAR older than Notre Dame and other buildings in Europe should tell you enough about which countries are deemed worthy of respect and preservation in the West .
i don't think people understand what it means for israel to not only be categorically continuing its incursion into the south of gaza but to be openly carpet bombing the safe zones it has told gaza residents to flee to while the whole world watches. this is a level of systemic extermination and impunity the likes of which i have never seen before. there have been so many war crimes already committed and so many laws already violated that i genuinely do not know how the world can recover or where it goes from here. israel is killing the so-called rules-based world order. it cannot possibly be louder or clearer than this.
Armenians have lived in Jerusalem for 1,600 years and Armenian Palestinians are the oldest group in the Armenian diaspora. From their indigenous land in Artsakh to the Armenian Quarter in Jerusalem, Armenians have been facing ethnic cleansing and persecution on multiple fronts. With the escalating genocidal violence in Gaza and the West Bank, armed settler encroachment into Armenian holdings in Jerusalem has fallen under the radar of some pro-Palestine activism and it is critical we do not allow this to happen.
Some context:
( In 1948, Armenians in Jerusalem numbered about 16,000. Today, that number has shrunk; estimates range from 700-1000, with a smaller community in Bethlehem. )
“We are not the objectives of the Israelis, but we occupy a huge chunk of Jerusalem. The fact that we’re here is an obstacle for them, but we’ve been here for 1,600 years and we’re not going anywhere.” "These are only the most visible of the challenges facing the community....Israeli discrimination, economic decline, and political insecurity have taken a toll on Armenians, encouraging emigration. A century after the community was nearly annihilated, Armenian Palestinians today say they feel deeply at home in the Holy Land, but fear how much longer they will be able to hold on."
“Don’t ask me about the massacres that happened 100 years ago [1915],” Annie Guluzian said when asked about her experiences as an Armenian Palestinian. “I won’t open [up about] those topics. Because if I do, I will start talking about my brother who was martyred by the Israelis in the [second] Intifada.” The toll of the Israeli occupation in Palestine is what defines her life today, Guluzian added.

Since October 26th, 2023, when the leader of the Armenian Patriarchate of Jerusalem announced it would cancel a once-secret 2021 land lease deal with a real estate company that has alleged links to settler interests, the company, Xana Gardens, has sent in armed settlers and bulldozers to steal the land (including Armenian Chruch property and several Armenian families). Armenians have been resisting the occupational forces day in and day out.

In response, Armenians have created an account on Twitter called SaveTheArq which has been documenting and updating on social media the recent land demolitions by Israeli settlers in the Armenian quarter, they have also launched a fundraiser for legal actions to protect the Armenian quarter and I highly recommend donating, if you can't, please share it around:
Support the historic effort to help the Armenian Community of the Old City of Jerusalem in the defense of its very survival and security.
