TEYONAH PARRIS As Yo-Yo They Cloned Tyrone (2023), Dir. Juel Taylor

Me: portraying Hamas as unreasonable and subhuman only suits to serve Israel and justify ethnic cleansing. We must deconstruct how they are portrayed and while not excusing what they’ve done, understanding them beyond the label of terrorist, which is wildly racialized and has been used to malign several freedom fighters who are working toward decolonization/liberation, is vital to understanding their political aims. What if we held the same nuance for them? Why is Israel allowed to brutalize and maim civilians but aren’t labeled terrorists? Why is colonial violence so justified that the violence from occupied people is never understood to be a necessary means of resistance. How can we challenge the narratives we hold that continuously paints a resistance group as subhuman stupid animals that must be wiped off the face of the planet. The best way to end the violence of Hamas is to end the violence of settler colonialism.

Smart people with the best reading comprehension: okay but they are terrorists though?? Do you condemn them?

I sentence you to thinking about dragons for 10 billion year

I love the alarmed tone of the cat meows when I’m home much later than usual. It sounds like “did you know?? Did you know it is late at night?! Hey! Hey! Did you know that there has not been dinner?! No dinner for cats? Hey! I can tell you are as concerned and worried about these developments as we are. My brother and I are also very concerned. No dinner!! The cats have not had dinner! Hey! Heeey!! Should you maybe call a police or pope or something? Congress? Dolly Parton? Did you know about this?”

When there is not enough yuri

i'm seeing people losing hope for palestine i'm begging you seriously please don't. the death toll is high but there are still people alive, there are still journalists risking everything to make sure the world sees what is happening. please continue protesting if you have the option to, keep demanding for a ceasefire and keep talking about palestinians both alive and dead. you have to keep going until the very end or else you really did fail them.

'we need weirder queers'

you cant handle when like. a trans guy has boobs.

The thing is, the people who are most "entitled" to "taking a break" from talking about the atrocities happening daily are the ones who will continue talking about it non-stop, either because we actively live it or because we share similar plights. We cannot afford to look away because we all know liberation and decolonization and anti-racism are goals we all share and strive for, and the suffering of Palestinians is the same as the suffering of every formerly and currently colonized peoples.

Yet the ones who talk about "activism burnout" or "compassion fatigue" or whatever, who only want this to be "over" so they can watch Disney+ again and get their favorite Starbucks TM drink TM, are the ones least impacted by what is happening; globally, but in their own country and even community as well. Imagine living in such a comfortable bubble that your main concern isn't the horrific government-sponsored genocide, but whether or not you can "go back" to your fun daily routines without feeling mild guilt because the corporations you're getting your fun and convenience from are either implicitly or explicitly backing that genocide happening right now.

If you can afford to look away and play pretend you are not only appallingly privileged, you have blood on your hands as surely as the military personnel bombing hospitals do.
