"He's 19"

GOOD

These two kids are Hamza (the oldest) and Qusai (the youngest).

Their mother shares this video and bids them goodbye. They were both killed by Israeli bombardment 5 days ago. She says:

[Two days before Hamza and Qusai were killed, hamza asked me: "mom, when we die, where will I go?" And I told him: "you will be a bird in heaven, my love." He said: "and Qusai?" "Just like you inshallah."

And indeed, two days later, he left and took his brother with him. It's like he was preparing me for saying goodbye to both of them. Heaven is more beautiful than any place on this Earth, habibi. We will meet and be reunited one day, me, your dad and you two].

Our kids don't deserve to die already thinking about what will happen to them, they don't deserve to die already terrified, anticipating their death because the world failed them and decided their lives mean nothing. We are not numbers. Remember their names and their stories.

I want a home mostly just to welcome people into it. There will be bowls of candy for guests, and the cookie jar is full. I’ll always say “I was just about to make a coffee/tea/cocoa, would you like one?” when somebody walks in. There’s lemonade and iced tea made fresh on hot days. Once it hits That Hour and they start saying they really should be going, I’ll remind them that the futon is always open, and I’m making cinnamon rolls tomorrow. There’s champagne and sparkling juice hidden on a high shelf just in case somebody announces their engagement or their pregnancy or their new job while they’re here. There is an extra chair in the living room, at the table, and on the deck, and it’s for you. I want to be able to say “if you’re ever in trouble, come to me.”

We interrupt your scrolling for a very important message from Shayne Topp.

Could you maybe write a hc about the whole "soutsides going to Riverdale high" thing that's about to happen? Where the reader is a Northsider and dating sweet pea? Thank you!

Hope you’ll enjoy it! I had so much fun writing it!! xox

•You were in art class, trying to paint Ronnie who couldn’t stop moving when you heard it.

•Principal Weatherbee announcing that Southside high was shut down and the southsiders were going to join Riverdale high.

•Everyone in your class started panicking. Most of your classmates were the kids of important people in Riverdale. They were in Riverdale High for a reason. Northsiders feared the southside. Drugs, gangs, crimes and young delinquents.

•Everyone was whispering about how the school was going to be dangerous now that the southsiders were here.

•The only person who wasn’t going crazy was you.

•You smiled, thinking about your boyfriend Sweet Pea.

•You two were like the cliché movie couple. The nice girl from a wealthy family and the badboy with a messed up childhood. You had fallen in love a few years ago on a cold night of november. He had saved you from other boys who were messing with you as you walked home. His tall figure scaring them away.

•Ever since that night, You two never left eachothers side.

•You were so excited for him to come to your school, you knew that deep down, behind all his hate for the northside, he was happy about seeing your smile everyday.

•You were talking with Kevin and Betty in the halls when everyone quieted down and looked down the hall.

•The serpents.

•Jughead was leading them, Toni and Fangs behind him. It took you a second to find Sweet Pea. He was taller than everyone afterall.

•Everyone took a few steps back to let them pass. They were intimidated by them with their leather jackets and their badass faces.

•Sweet Pea was looking around, searching for you. When he saw you, he smiled and walked towards you.

•You ran to him, your hair floating behind you and jumped into his arms, wrapping your arms around his neck. He had to bend a bit because if he didn’t, you wouldn’t have been able to reach him.

•"Hey kitten.. Weren’t expecting such a surprise were you?“ He whispered into your ear.

•A few students around you gasped seeing you jump in this serpent’s arms. They started saying mean things but Sweet Pea told you to ignore them.

•"She’s dating this gang member?!”

•"Wow.. Her future is ruined. He won’t give her a good life.“

•"Is she gonna join the serpents now??”

•Sweets took your hand and lead you outside in the garden.

•"Don’t listen to them okay.. I’m with you now and look at my new schedule.. I asked for a few modifications.“ He smiled, showing you the paper.

•"We’re in the same classes?!”

•"I had to be extra nice to get it changed. But it was all worth it.“

•"I love you!” You said, kissing him.

•School with Sweets was like a dream.

•You two sharing a locker. Him having the top shelf and you having the bottom one.

•Every time you would be bored in class, you would turn around and look at the back of the class to see Sweet Pea staring at you.

•Being lab partners.

•Him writing notes on small pieces of paper and giving them to you in class.

•«Next bell. You. Me. Locker rooms.»

•Meeting him in the locker rooms so you could makeout in private.

•Him borrowing your school books because he can’t afford them.

•Him driving you home on his bike every night.

•Study dates at his trailer.

•Doing oral presentations together and him being super nervous for this little and simple thing.

•Him not being able to throw a ball at you while playing dodge ball in gym class because you’re his little kitten.

•Leaving cute notes in your shared locker.

•School being so much better with him around.

•"The northside isn’t that bad when you’re here..“ He’d say, smirking.

i blessed and the rains fell down in africa

Listening to my heart way too much these days 💔

This is total bullshit. I fucking hate how our future generations will have to deal with this shit. EVERYONE IS EQUAL

This is utter and absolute bullshit and Caster Semenya and all the other women who will find themselves in her position in the future due to this absurd, discriminatory ruling deserve so much better. I am so angry and so sad for her.
