[ID: Screenshots of the movie The Thing. The researchers are crammed in a hallway, holding out weapons and looking cautious. In the second shot is the suspicious dog from the start of the film. It has the word “Dog” written on it, with a blue checkmark. End ID]
The night gardener once asked me if I knew how citrus trees died: when they reach old age, if they are not cut down and they manage to survive drought, disease and innumerable attacks of pests, fungi and plagues, they succumb from overabundance. When they come to the end of their life cycle, they put out a final, massive crop of lemons. In their last spring their flowers bud and blossom in enormous bunches and fill the air with a smell so sweet that it stings your nostrils from two blocks away; then their fruits ripen all at once, whole limbs break off due to their excessive weight, and after a few weeks the ground is covered with rotting lemons. It is a strange sight, he said, to see such exuberance before death.

i dont want to be an adult i want to go to the shiny secondhand trinkets store and spend seven hundred dollars
god is hiding somewhere in here and he is only $4.99
i love when women kiss each other on the mouth
god the loneliness of young adulthood is so real
it’s just trying not to cry on public transport and doing dishes
it’s sitting at home on a weekend and feeling this sudden wave of bittersweet nostalgia for something that never even existed overwhelm everything.

It's not even hidden. People openly admit to this. They've literally said openly "most of the deaths are people with disabilities so we shouldn't care".

Drop whatever you are doing and watch Oriented (2015) on Netflix. Possibly the most un-pinkwashed piece about queer Palestinian youth I have ever seen.
[ID: Several images of a young Palestinian man speaking to a room of people. He says, “I’ll start with a story that happened recently. A few months ago I receivec a call from a BBC journalist. He said, ‘We want your story. We’re sure you’ve suffered…’ So I said to him, ‘Wait a second… I think you’re speaking to the wrong guy. My parents know about me, and have accepted me, and entirely love and support me. So, I’m not what you’re looking for.’ So then he said: ‘Oh. Perhaps you can find us another Palestinian who did suffer?’ And that really irritated me, because it feels that Israel and the West have monopolized the concept of liberalism and being out of the closet. For the first part of this lecture I want to introduce a new Palestinian generation that you haven’t yet had a chance to meet.” End ID.]
From the Wikipedia article on pinkwashing:
Pinkwashing is a term used by feminist theorists to describe the action of using queer rights to distract from violence or oppression by a country, government, or organization. In the context of LGBT rights, it is used to describe a variety of marketing and political strategies aimed at promoting products, countries, people or entities through an appeal to gay-friendliness, in order to be perceived as progressive, modern and tolerant. This phrase, in reference to LGBTQ rights, was coined by Sarah Schulman in her op-ed piece for the New York Times, “Israel and Pinkwashing”.
