“heavy perfumes, whose warm poison – dahlias, lilies, tulips and marigolds – drowning my senses, soul and reason, mingles in their immense confusion memory with Twilight’s glows.”
— Paul Verlaine from Poèmes Saturniens: Paysages Tristes II, Crépuscule du Soir Mystique / Twilight of a Mystical Evening.

Thousands of people have died, so many more are injured, hundreds of thousands are displaced.
Please at this time Donate to the Red Crescent and the Red Shield of David... They need all the support possible.
Also ZaKA (זק"א). They are an organization that works to preserve the dignity of the dead by recovering their bodies and ensuring they receive respect and proper treatment according to their religious rites (they have other religious wings aside from Jewish). I don't know what the Palestinian equivalent of this organization is, but if it exists please share it and support it. There's a lot of dead and unfortunately there's probably going to be many more and they all deserve dignity.
The greatest mitzvah is helping a soul along to its burial, because it's the only mitzvah where you cannot be thanked by the person you're helping.
A friend of mine has asked me to specifically mention this project which is near completion.
Sadly it will be sorely needed. The exterior walls are not yet complete and are needed to protect the burials from being disturbed by dogs and other such menaces that may dig into graves.
If you would like to donate directly to the Gazan Orthodox Christian community for humanitarian supports and repair of the damaged St Porphyrios Orthodox Church you can support this campaign by The Holy Orthodox Order of St George the Great Martyr here. Or at the bottom of the page here
Please support the joint Palestinian and Israeli project Bereaved Families For Peace (I set the language to English, hopefully that is carried over to the link.) this is a time of bereavement for everybody in this awful situation.
Also support Roots, fostering peace and reconciliation between Palestinians a d Israelis
"Standing Together is a grassroots movement mobilizing Jewish and Palestinian citizens of Israel in pursuit of peace, equality, and social and climate justice. While the minority who benefit from the status quo of occupation and economic inequality seek to keep us divided, we know that we — the majority — have far more in common than that which sets us apart."
ERAN is a mental health hotline in Israel
Mrs. Najah's Kitchen provides emergency meals for displaced Gazans in south Gaza
this is a quote from a facebook post of theirs, they provide accessibility for Deaf people in emergencies
"Right now, both Deaf Palestinians and Deaf Israeli families are cut-off from vital information and incredibly frightened. We grieve for the lives lost as loved ones' families from both sides grip with fear.We aim not to support governments, rather we support Deaf people in crisis as a nonpartisan organization responding to Deaf people of all backgrounds, beliefs, and regions of the world.If you know of a Deaf person in crisis please message us with the word“OTGHELP”

I didn’t miss that social cue I just thought it was stupid
‘i saw your social cue but am ignoring it in the hopes you learn to use your words and communicate like an adult. hope this helps’
The Albatross.
reading this deposition that just got dropped where someone sued musk and ohhhh my god it is this funniest thing ever . i can see why his lawyer tried to keep this confidential . they’re both maybe the biggest idiots . this is like ace attorney
PLEASE read this
bankston is my HERO he’s tearing these people apart
damn
HE LEFT
????
oh my god
KILL HIM
he is DONE.
HELP ME .
wow. ok.
genuinely first two pages he says that he thinks ben’s lawyer is the one who is actually suing him and admits he has no clue what the lawsuit is about .
doing a reread now this is so cunty
goddamn .
fun fact: the Mr. Bankston here is Mark Bankston, the same lawyer who absolutely ruined Alex Jones during the Sandy Hook trial.
how in the fuck did the muskrat's attorney pass the bar
Mark Bankston is gonna make me fucking SWOON.
I don't think Mark can ever top "INDEED, MR. JONES, INDEED" and "AND THAT IS HOW I KNOW YOU LIED TO ME" from the first Sandy Hook trial in Texas (not to be confused with Chris Mattei, the attorney in the Connecticut trial), but this part
MR. SPIRO: Do you give these lectures at all of your depositions? MR. BANKSTON: I do, and you can watch them.
is ESPECIALLY hilarious to me having listened to multiple depositions Mark has had to take in the Sandy Hook case, where he has needed to lecture EVERY. SINGLE. ATTORNEY. at some point in the case about how they're violating Texas Rule XYZ, because they all, to a one, did something seriously ethically questionable during the deposition.
like, YOU CAN WATCH/LISTEN TO HIS DEPOS. HE DOES HAVE TO GIVE THOSE LECTURES EVERY TIME. IT'S NOT EVEN A JOKE.
