While Americans are distracted watching the Super Bowl, Israel has chosen to begin bombing over a million Palestinians.
It’s timed too conveniently to be a coincidence.
There’s nothing we can do to stop this but please don’t be silent. Even if you’re watching the game, please use your voice to condemn genocide in this moment and afterwards.

How to be an ally with the Palestinians 🇵🇸
punkxroses reblogged
stop calling what is happening between israel and palestine a “conflict.” a conflict infers both sides have an equal power. what is happening in palestine shows none of that. this isn’t a conflict, it’s ethnic cleansing, oppression, and apartheid.

I get so angry hearing and reading about what's happening in Palestine right now. I don't even know what to do and it all feels hopeless 😔
The situation around Sheikh Jarrah should make everyone angry. For those of you who might not know what’ going on here’s a brief breakdown:
Indigenous Palestinian residents of Sheikh Jarrah, for a very long time, have been fighting lengthy legal battles in Israeli courts against eviction orders which aim to replace these indigenous people with illegal Israeli settlers.
On May 7th, the illegal Israeli settlers along with courts (an apparatus of Israel’s apartheid regime) have started a campaign to illegally take over the home’s of Palestinian families in Sheikh Jarrah. These families were given until today (May 10th, 2021) to “reach an agreement” with the occupiers. This obviously prompted protests. The IDF has also brutally responded to these protests. Now the world is watching and global protests have started happening.
Some important things to note:
-Sheikh Jarrah belongs to the Palestinian families. It is part of the occupied Palestinian territory, and therefore any Israeli settler presence in it amounts to a war crime under international law.
-There has been a mountain of UN Security Council resolutions demanding that Israel withdraw from East Jerusalem which Israel continues to ignore.
-This is ethnic cleansing
I know you feel hopeless but here’s what we can do:
-Support BDS (Boycott, Divestments, Sanctions) movements (What”s BDS?) Boycott Israeli products from their colonial settlements
-Understand whats happening in Palestine and the crimes of apartheid/persecution being committed by Israel. (Check out this great report by HRW on the situation) After getting an understanding. SPREAD AWARENESS. Especially in the US. This is key to combatting Evangelical propaganda and Israeli lobbyists. Do this through social media.
-Contact your local reps and pressure them to stop giving Israel military funding or any form of financial support. Fight against zionist lobbyists such as AIPAC or Christians United for Israel.
-Donate if you can. Here’s a few links. If you can add more (reputable) donation links to this, I ask that you please do.
This is a start and we can honestly make change happen. I personally believe social media outrage coupled with supporting the BDS movement is a great way for you to help even by sitting at home.
Most of all, it’s important to spread awareness.

When it comes to Steve’s ending - which I still hate - I’ve always avoided this whole diatribe that some fans like to voice, which is centered around the idea that “Steve abandoned Bucky” and that it’s “unrealistic he’d ever leave Bucky for Peggy,” etc etc etc. I didn’t really jam with this particular take for a number of reasons, not least of all because I thought it kinda implies Bucky is helpless without Steve and also that Steve isn’t allowed to want anything other than Bucky.
Having said that.
There is something quite cruel in watching Bucky fumble his way through the world alone, isn’t there? Not just the nightmares, but finding redemption from his time with Hydra and seeking new purpose and coping with losing his entire family.
Maybe the whole point of Bucky’s storyline in TFATWS will be that Bucky can find independence and happiness on his own, without Steve’s help, and that’s great. But it’s frustrating to know that Steve knows how hard this is. He went through a lot of this himself, and one of the things that drove him and gave him renewed hope was the idea of being reunited with Bucky.
So yeah, Steve’s choice does feel a bit selfish now, as we watch Bucky struggle. I can’t help but think back on how Steve fought for Bucky’s freedom and then mourned him all over again for five years, only to leave at the first opportunity.
And I still feel kinda icky saying that, because I don’t like the idea that Bucky’s healing is only valuable if Steve is there to see it through. Because that’s not true. Perhaps if we had seen 2+ movies where Steve fights his own team members to protect Peggy, I would be more inclined to endorse him chasing a happily ever after with Peggy, but they did so much work to establish Bucky and Steve’s friendship. Romantic, platonic - I don’t care what your take is. That’s not so important in this context. Chris Evans said himself that Steve sees the world in black and white - wrong and right - unless Bucky is in the picture. Bucky is the shade of grey in Steve’s moral compass. Bucky is the person he’s willing to throw away the shield for - we literally saw it happen.
So you’d think, in light of that, Steve would want to make sure someone so important to him is doing well. You’d think he would stay with Bucky, after going through so much and fighting so hard to have him back, and retain that friendship.
I know I’m not saying anything that hasn’t already been debated to death, but watching TFATWS really just drilled down how awful Bucky has it right now, and how much happier he might be if Steve was still around.

Alright Swiftlets, by now you have all heard that one of the main things we can do on an individual basis to prevent the spread of the coronavirus is to wash our hands frequently for 20 seconds. The suggestion has been singing Happy Birthday twice but that has gotten boring in .3 seconds, so I present
Taylor’s greatest 20-second hits to wash your hands to
- Last Kiss - from “I hope the sun shines" to “changing your mind”
- Dear John - from “I took your matches” to “sad empty town”
- Enchanted - first chorus
- Long Live - first chorus
- Don’t Blame Me - from “I get so high” to “every time you’re lovin me"
- Delicate - Beginning part from “This ain’t for the best” to “1,2,3, let’s go bitch”
- Gorgeous - first chorus
- Getaway Car - from"We were jet set” to “traitors never win"
- also Getaway Car - from “I’m in a getaway car left you in a motel bar” to “first met me”
- King of My Heart - bridge through the first time she says “king of my heart”
- Picture to Burn - Chorus
- Blank Space - “so its gonna be forever” to “love the game"
- also Blank Space - “cuz we’re young” to ” and I’ll write your name"
- Blank Space again - the bridge
- Style - first or second half of chorus, it’s exactly 40 seconds
- OOTW - bridge (minus the extra “you were looking at me"s)
- All Too Well - “I walk through the door” to “drawer even now"
- All Too Well 2.0 - “you call me up again” to “all too well"
- All Too Well 3.0 - “time won’t fly” to “walk home alone”
- Holy Ground - “darlin it was good” to “was holy ground”
- The Other Side of the Door - Outro
- Fearless - Chorus
- Cruel Summer - first verse
- The Man - chorus
- Death by a Thousand Cuts - first two stanzas of the bridge
- ME! - bridge
Spread the word, not the germs!
This is the single best post I’ve ever seen in the 6 years I’ve been on here. The creativity, the practicality, the importance!! Bravo. 👏🏼

THIS IS SAD.
this makes me so furious what the fuck-

It’s just UNBEARABLY predictable to me that the only people speaking in Taylor’s defence are female artists. Of course, it’s yet again Camila Cabello, Selena Gomez and Halsey who are being vocally supportive of her right to own her own music and of course there’s stunning silence from Shawn Mendes, Ed Sheeran, Niall Horan and co.
These are men who’ve spoken about how much they enjoy her music, and men who’ve certainly enjoyed her platform when she’s been gracious enough to share it with them, but men who can’t move themselves to risk their own asses to offer her support and help put pressure on Big Machine and Scooter Braun to change their position.
Bieber admits to being an abusive piece of shit and Sheeran is lining up to work with him for the 400th time, you get fucking idiots like Liam Payne waxing lyrical about how brave and noble he is, and we’re all expected to act like he’s the second coming of Christ. But a woman wants credit and ownership over the fruits of her own labour? Nah, bro, that’s too far, that’s too controversial. She’s probably lying anyway.
Men truly aren’t shit and the men of the music industry prove that again and again.

i’m so disappointed and frustrated with all the male musicians i admired and looked up to. it’s sad and pathetic to discover and see their truth in this awful way. harry styles, zayn, troye sivan, shawn mendes, ed sheeran, niall horan and more. also bands like little big town and sugarland? even taylor’s childhood heroes didn’t utter a word. tim mcgraw? faith hill? keith urban? wow. just wow.

But seriously where is Shawn?! She let you be on a remix of an already perfect song and you always gonna talk about how you're good friends but can show up and step up to the plate when she needs you? So sad.
punkxroses reblogged
i personally made my decision and i ALREADY deleted all of ed, shawn and other male musicians’ songs/albums and i’m not supporting their shit anymore. if a large number of us did that, believe me it’d affect them. please, guys. do it. don’t stream, don’t watch mvs on YouTube, don’t get near their content, anymore. please.

joseph kahn and perez hilton have been more vocal in their support of taylor than ed sheehan or shawn mendes. let me say that again. JOSEPH KAHN, a man well world thrives off of getting into fights with swifties, and PEREZ HILTON, who is constantly trying to stir up drama and dig up dirt on other celebrities and leak shit, have been FAR MORE VOCAL in their support of taylor than ED SHEERAN, who claims to be one of taylor’s best friends and has reaped the benefits of that through opening for her, collaborating with her, and more, and SHAWN MENDES, who claims to be one of taylor’s best friends and has reaped the benefits of that through opening for her, collaborating with her, and more. MAKE IT MAKE SENSE.
