don't feel helpless. you're not speaking up for Palestine alone. the world, humanity, is with you.
"From Sanaa to Glasgow, and Ramallah to Barcelona, people around the world are showing solidarity with Palestinians. Israel has killed at least 28,985 Palestinians in Gaza since Oct. 7. This is what it looks like when the world stands together to demand an end to Israel’s attacks." from AJ Plus, 18/Feb/2024:
EXCUSE ME THERE IS A PLANT THAT CAN MIMIC FAKE PLANTS?????
IT'S CALLED A BOQUILA TRIOFOLIOLATA AND IT'S FUCKING WITH MY BRAIN
IT APPARENTLY CAN MIMIC OTHER PLANTS AND AT FIRST I WAS LIKE "oh cool man it must take it's genetic code and copy it or feel the roots or something like that!! :3"
AND THEN I READ AN ARTICLE ON IT AND THESE FUCKING PARAGRAPHS HIT ME LIKE A BUS
LIKE READ THIS SHIT
WHAT THE FUCK MOTHER NATURE
I went to find the article. It's fascinating.
In retrospect, consider the number 1 thing every grade-schooler knows about plants is they take in light, the idea they might be able to see should not wreck my shit as hard as it does

Lord, God, Being, Universe, whomever you are where ever you are do you know do you know do you know I wasn’t meant for this I was never meant for this I was meant for the sea and the land and the open air. I was meant for the touch of grass and rock and sand beneath my bare feet. I was meant for fresh berries bleeding red my fingers and the comfort of my tribe.

Sometimes I get in a bad place and think that humans are intrinsically terrible but here's the thing: the floors in my apartment building are really thin. I can hear everything the guy in the unit above me does. Sometimes I hear him sneeze and I say "bless you" reflexively. And today I sneezed and heard him call out "bless you" to me.
Humans are good. We are good. At our core, we are silly and weird and good.
