Isa: My parents were really strict, instead of a net around our trampoline, they put a barb wire.
Jake: Are you okay?
Isa: Quite frankly, yes.
Isa: What if we made a K-drama realistic?
Jake: Continue.
Isa: Like, what if we had a haters to neighbors to friends to best friends to lovers in 16 or 20 episodes?
Jake: So basically, ..us.
Isa: Some even say we have better chemistry than any drama.
Jake: Although that’s true, I’ll take your word from yesterday and leave us as it is.
Isa, walking past a bloody sidewalk: Technically can't any trail be a hiking trail?
Jake, on the phone: When you put it like that, anything could happen.
nearly 300 people were arrested in nyc last night
Kai: uh oh
Jake: what?
Kai: someone’s in love
Jake: yeah, right. I just think Isa’s cool. It’s not like I lay awake at night thinking of her.
Jake, later that night: oh no.
Isa: You are …flower.
Jake: Explain.
Isa: Makes me happy.
Something I learned in these last seven months is that when children get war-related amputations, they need further surgeries as they grow.
I'd read it on Twitter so I looked it up to confirm (and it's true) but a lot of the search results were hospitals and doctors trying to explain the process to parents and what to tell their children, what kind of care they'd need after, how prosthetics would work.
I just saw this adorable little baby on Twitter (you can click to view the video, it's not gory, he's just a super serious little dude)
and I thought, fleeing from Rafah must be one of the most traumatizing dangerous situations you could be in right now as a healthy adult, let alone a baby with multiple amputations in famine conditions.
There are no working hospitals to speak of in Gaza, healthcare workers keep being killed off, aid keeps being blocked, many of the amputees have no one to look after them, there's still constant bombing and shelling and shooting.
UNICEF reported 1,000 child amputees by the end of November.
Do not forget about Palestinians on this Eid, do not forget about Gaza, do not forget about the lives taken and homes destroyed, do not forget about the joy and life so cruelly snatched from them.
Eid means to us what Christmas means to most of you. And they're spending it digging through rubble and locating bodies to burry.
They have no chocolates, no new clothes to wear, no homes to decorate, they lost loved ones which would gather together, no Eidi to give to children to make them happy, no mehndi, no jewelery, no new toys.
Do not forget about Palestine.
Keep boycotting for them, keep protesting for them, keep donating to the families through the link tree, keep buying e-sims for them, keep sharing the truth, keep exposing Israel for their consistent humanitarian crimes.
Remember the Palestinians, especially today, on Eid, an occasion of joy.
May Allah make it joyous for them after everything they had suffered, may they be free from the Zionist occupation and genocide
Eid Mubarak, to everyone, and to the Palestinians
no I'm not kidding (x) (x) (x) (x)
Jake: Isa, doctor! I've developed a double heartbeat since my operation.
Isa: Ah, so that's where my wristwatch went.
Jake: HOW- You’re freaking qualified!
