morrie really went from being the one who climbs into his lover's (clive) window to having his lover (alec) climb into his window...
I'm not religious, but there's definitely a special place in hell for the IOF. Let them all be eternally damned and SUFFER immensely over and over again. I'm beyond enraged. These poor children. The horror the absolute horror.
Keanu, when asked what sort of girls he likes. 1994.
Big Breakfast: What sort of girls do you like?
Keanu: Oh man…*holds face in hands* *repeats question* they’re all angels.
Big Breakfast: really? And are you single at the moment?
Keanu: Yeah…*howls softly like a sad dog*
In case you lost it - a link to the eSIM donation guide. Even if you feel sick and powerless, you can at least do this. And even if you really, really can't donate, you can always at least share this and remind others.
the lowest tier, which costs 9 dollars, offers a week of connection while the very next, 16 dollars, will provide a full month of contact with the world to someone who desperately needs it. this is not some idle step. an entire month is a huge length of time for people who are displaced, terrified, and isolated.

LIBERATION OF PALESTINE
one of the many reasons Fleabag is so heartbreaking and relatable is because no one ever chose her. Not her family. Not her lovers. Not her supposed “soulmate”. The one person that picked her died. She was no one’s choice or option, not even to herself. The way we can feel her loneliness through the screen is enough to make me collapse into a mess of tears on the ground and shake uncontrollably

Palestinian militants protecting the Maghen Abraham Synagogue in Beirut from attacks during the Lebanese Civil War. The synagogue stood from 1925 until the IDF bombed and destroyed it in 1982
the misinformation here is appalling! and replies are turned off so no one can provide fact-checks, which is so convenient. they arent “protecting” the synagogue, they’re guarding the cache of weaponry stored inside it to be used in the civil war, and were instructed to do so during the approach of the IDF to indicate that the most significant jewish place of worship in beirut had been occupied and desecrated. it was damaged, not destroyed, by Israeli bombardment of the broader area in 1982, and was not the target - if you read up on the war then you can make your own informed opinions on the presence of the IDF in Lebanon during the conflict - but by that time the Jewish community had shrank to a minute size due to the violent targeting of Jewish civilians by militant extremists, most fleeing as refugees to Israel. the synagogue was rebuilt in the early 2000s, partially as an attempt by the government to portray itself as tolerant of Judaism, but no services are held there due to the fact that there are less than 50 Jews left in Lebanon. next time try your best not to fall for easily refuted propaganda …
Replies are restricted to followers for all my posts. This post isn't special and neither are you. Funny you talk about “reading up” on the history of MY HOMELAND when literally all your facts are wrong. I would looove to see your sources 🤔
There is no evidence that there were weapons stored at Maghen Abraham. The IDF claimed that there were, purely on the basis that the PLO had members stationed in the neighborhood. The same thing they do now when they want justification to bomb important civilian institutions.
Here’s a New York Times article from the time:
It was not rebuilt by the government. It was rebuilt by the Lebanese Jewish community, using private donations and grants. Photos from before the 2009 restoration:
As you can see, it had no fucking roof. Because the self-anointed "Jewish state" bombed it. After driving out the majority of Beirut's large, thriving Jewish community by funding violent Christian ethnonationalists and starting a regional war.
Nice try though
Feeling an incredibly weird specific nostalgia but what piece of media defined 2020 for you (as in you spent that year with it) mine is mtv's catfish

why is religious Christmas imagery all so joyful and pleasant? where is the inherent horror of the birth of Christ? A mother is handed her newborn child, wailing and innocent. Her hands come away sticky. Red. Simply by giving her son life she has already killed him. He is doomed from the beginning. Her love will not save him from suffering. Because the thing cradled in her arms is not a baby, it is a sacrifice: born amongst the other bleating animals whose blood will one day be spilled in the name of what demands it. the night is silent with anticipation. Mary, did you know? That your womb was also a grave?

"I have been reunited with an old friend from the Ulster Rifles. He's a Protestant, Paddy Mayne, though he drinks like a Catholic. We're able to talk about home to each other. He's the same man I knew in Ireland, but lately I am changed by him."
"There's a fellow here I knew in Ulster, Eoin McGonigal. He's from the other side, but we don't talk religion. If I sit up barking and howling at night as I sometimes do, he takes me for a walk and throws a stick for me. When I find myself become a devil, he reminds me that underneath I am a poet."
