this is your reminder not to accept crumbles of affection. if someone isn't willing to give you time, safety, love and comfort, do not beg for it. do not shrink your needs to make them stay. let them go! there are people out there who will freely and enthusiastically want you for you.

After getting over the initial shock and heartbreak of this tweet and this reply, it hit me that (and I don't know if this is a cultural thing here in the middle east or an Islamic one)
A child has to be named even if they're stillborn.
For a child to not be named, that means there's no one left to name them. They were killed along with their entire family.
I hoped I was wrong, but I checked the list of victims of Israeli attacks and found this:
Israel has ended 47 Palestinian bloodlines over the course of this genocide (or perhaps more), so you might think that this little detail isn't that important, but I don't think we should get used to cruelty of this proportion, no matter how consistently Israel commits it.
The number of victims isn't just a number. These are people with full lives and hopes and dreams.
It's enough of a disaster that these families were wiped out, but in murdering them, Israel didn't just deprive them of their lives, hopes, and dreams. It deprived them of even the dignity to name their children.
It continues to deprive the remaining Palestinians of their most basic human rights.
What did the Palestinians do to not deserve food or water or electricity?
What did their *newborns* do to not deserve lives or at the very least names?!
This is the most harrowing form of terrorism I can think of. The genocidal Israeli occupation is the most despicable terrorist organization the world has had the displeasure of knowing.
The whole world should be deeply ashamed that it's not only allowing such heinous war crimes to be committed, but in a lot of ways, it's enabling them.
I don't know how anyone can be neutral about this.
Stand with Palestine, stand against the occupation. Against genocide.
ربنا يتقبل الأطفال دول و أمهاتهم و عائلاتهم اللي الاحتلال قتلهم معاهم شهداء، و ينتقم من إسرائيل و أي حد بيمكّنهم أشد انتقام في الدنيا قبل الآخرة.
Please help me help my friend help their friend to help their family get out of Gaza by donating to Maram's gofundme. Since I posted about her last month she's managed to escape but is now separated from her loved ones.
I haven’t seen the irondick post on my dash in a while and I’m scared for what might be coming to this universe.
I was talking about Gordon Ramsey and somebody suggested that Gordon Ramsey is my dad so I shout that he is and my older brother says he isn’t and then goes “wait, maybe he is.” I asked what he meant and he didn’t respond.....
......so Gordon Ramsey might be my dad
