— The Love Was There. (it Didn't Change Everything, But It Changed Me)

i love it when tragedies are like "the love was there. it didnt change anything. it didnt save anyone. there were just too many forces against it. but it still matters that the love was there" // i hope someday to say out loud to anyone: you touched me & touched me & touched me & i was made better for it. // and i never (i never) saw you coming and i'll never (never) be the same // obsessed where stories where it is like. the mistakes are unfixable and the worst thing that could happen happened and nothing can go back to how it was. but there was still love in this and love will continue after this and love endures always.
you'll go and i'll know / i owe you all the love you showed me i deserved / the gold that i was worth / you built me up like architecture / boy, you'll break my heart, i'll let ya / cause no one nowhere knows me better than you // i care for you still and i will forever / that was my part of the deal // "For the record, Milo," I say quietly into the new air, "I would miss you." / It doesn't change anything, but it feels important for him to know. Or maybe just important to say it out loud. Like maybe I can make the hurt of missing him a little less if I own up to it now instead of later. // I think you carry the people you've loved with you forever, not in a 'you can never get over them' way but more like loving them changed you and it meant something and you have to make peace with that
But I still care about you and I think I'll care forever / and I'm glad we got to do / all those perfect, ugly, almost priceless / lost and lovely lunar years together // KENT: Alack, why thus? / EDMUND: Yet Edmund was beloved:
and somehow, we fell out of touch / hope he took his bad deal and made a royal flush / don't know if i'll see you again someday / but if you're out there, i hope that you're okay // how powerfully i carry her within me. my grief is tremendous but my love is bigger. // i would've loved, would've loved you forever / it's never enough but i wanted it to be / every night you were sleeping in my sweater / it's never enough but you wanted it to be
He salutes me, sliding out of the entryway, but not before I see something telltale in his eyes. Something that aches the same way I ache; something taking shape before I understand the depth of it. The understanding that no matter what happens-- if we both stay here, or we're flung thousands of miles apart-- we are important to each other, and we will be for the rest of our lives.
i know you're leaving in the morning when you wake up / leave me with some kind of proof it's not a dream // of course the love is there. / still, / still, / still. // oh, there it was (there it was), heaven knows (heaven knows) / there it was (there it was), now there it goes
it's a love song / it's a tale of love from long ago / it's a sad song / we keep singing even so // because she wasn't listening. it wasn't a war story. it was a love story. // in case you don't live forever, let me tell you the truth / i'm everything that i am because of you
what if you let someone who loves you rewrite your story?
it may well be / that we will never meet again / in this lifetime / so let me say before we part / so much of me / is made of what i learned from you / you'll be with me / like a handprint on my heart / and now whatever way our stories end / i know you have rewritten mine / by being my friend
The fluttering in the stomach goes away and the dull waking pain. Sometimes I think of you and I feel giddy. Memory makes me lightheaded, drunk on champagne. All the things we did. And if anyone had said this was the price I would have agreed to pay it. That surprises me; that with the hurt and the mess comes a shaft of recognition. It was worth it. Love is worth it.

— the love was there. (it didn't change everything, but it changed me)

the moment where. where she screams. screaming for help. i’m dying right now! screaming. and there’s no reaction at all. there’s nothing. it’s more devastating than judgment could be somehow. “i’m sorry. ignore me.” before she crumples and chokes. i’m never going to be okay again i think.

a man self immolated in front of the israeli embassy in washington dc yesterday. not just any man. an active member of the us air force. he live streamed his death, and said that he refused to be complicit in a genocide any longer. he said that compared to what palestinians were facing every day, setting himself alight was nothing.

let me reiterate. an active duty air force member burned himself alive because he was so disgusted by what the us government was openly supporting. he live-streamed his own suicide, so the whole world could bear witness as a man in his military uniform set himself on fire to protest his government’s complicity in the horrors that we have all been forced to watch happen in real time. he became a new horror. footage of the immolation blurs him out the moment the fire catches, but you can hear him. it is over in seconds, really, but you can hear him screaming. he shouts “free palestine” until his body physically cannot make any sounds other than guttural screams of agony. and then he falls silent. a police officer arrives and points a gun at his still burning body, shouting at him to get down on the ground. and it is over.

his name was Aaron Bushnell. he was twenty five years old. and he isn’t here anymore because the political ruling class has decided that genocide is perfectly fine as long as it preserves imperialism. in the coming days, people will try to discredit him. to say that he was mentally unstable. they will try to bury his actions to save face and defend israel’s propaganda. do not let them. aaron knew what he was doing. he knew what he was doing when he put on his military uniform, set up his twitch stream, and made his final walk up to the embassy. he knew what would happen to him when he flicked that lighter. do not let them forget. aaron’s blood is on the hands of the political ruling class.

You know what? Fuck it. I'm celebrating that finale.

Never have I seen a character in fiction as doomed by the narrative as Aaliyah Amrohi AND SHE SURVIVED. Not even a scratch on her. GOAT behavior. Real MVP.

They need to hold hands and live happily ever after (they’re both gonna end up falling deeper and deeper into a cult to justify the horrific crimes they’ve committed and the inescapable guilt of surviving)

Travis and Akilah need to unionize
