Embrace the mystery

"Oh the media being biased/silent on Gaza is a conspiracy theory"

I am a literal journalist and this is what happened when I pitched an article to a magazine I write for:

We covered conflict before. We denounced PMs' positions as wrong before. But this is where the editor balks - anything that makes it look even vaguely like we might, possibly, support Gaza. Even if the article itself would not have been an opinion piece, but a news feature about events on the ground.

We have free press, baby! But avoid the matter entirely if you can. It's delicate and depressing, why would you talk about it? Don't rock the boat. Be quiet. You don't need to go there.

Self-censorship is alive and well.

On this day 23 years ago during the Second Intifada to resist the occupation 13-year-old Gazan Fares Udah stood in front of an Israeli tank like a tiny David defying Goliath. Ten days later Fares threw his last stone. He was shot in the neck by Israeli troops.

In an interview his mother commented about the famous photo: "I'm so afraid that Fares' death will be for nothing. That everything will just go back to normal. And the only thing that happened is that I have lost my son."

Israel has wiped out 881 families.

881 bloodlines.

881.

sometimes all you can do is just look at your dad like. what the fuck my guy. and then move on

The people I no longer speak are still a part of my life.

You’re birthday is still my password/ I still have the pendant you gave me/ I pressed your flowers into a book and bagged them/ the pen that I ‘borrowed’ from you but didn’t return still sits on my pile of stationaries (and although the ink has run out, I don’t think I’ll ever discard it )/ the birthday card you gave me when I was twelve, I have it/ I kept behind the book we passed notes in back In School/ your number is still saved in my contacts/ I’ve got a folder filled with your pictures/ there’s still a heart besides your name on Snapchat/ I think about you when I make cookies

@ every girl who thinks “maybe I’m being paranoid” about ur instincts about a guy.... you’re not.

Anti-monarchist message layed out on Black mountain in Belfast for ‘king’ Charles, when he visited the city yesterday.

Hand written letters are so intimate it's like one second you're holding the letter and then they're holding it. How your fingers can still brush through distance

I just want to clarify that I don’t love One Direction by choice. 

when one direction was like “if you ever feel alone …. don’t” and it eradicated depression 

me watching a cat scratch its ears: i could've scratched those for you
