“She herself is a haunted house. She does not possess herself; her ancestors sometimes come and peer out of the windows of her eyes…”
- Angela Carter, The Lady of the House of Love (1979), featured in her The Bloody Chamber.

there’s so much i feel a bit relieved about leaving behind, because it was fraught, and so many people i want nothing to do with anymore, but i am very sad about all my EP related posts being stuck in the purgatory of my other blog forever once i leave it permanently
Please do not fear for me. I have no fear myself. The old monsters are gone. The old curses have echoed to silence. And if my immortal soul is lost to me, something yet remains. I remain..

fellow westerners, particularly gentiles, if you think, “this is only about (insert infographic reason) (the land) (fighting oppression) (the war)” or “this is the Middle East and Russia, not here,” you’re wrong. if you think, “I’m not causing this simply by using incendiary language on the internet,” you’re wrong. if you think, “well, I don’t have a problem with (((Jews))), but…,” you’re wrong. if you think, “tbh (((they))) deserve this,” you’re helping it spread. do you see why this is terrifying? do you see how this is not helping liberation or a plan for a ceasefire or humanitarian interests? the blood libel and the dual loyalty and the Holocaust inversion and the atrocity denial and the accusations of greed and the dehumanization and the misuse of terms and the misinformation, this is the direct consequence. this has always been the exact consequence. if you think, “it can’t happen here,” look at the college campuses having to tell their Jewish students to hide and the people assaulted verbally and physically on the streets and the graffiti and the break-ins and the chants to eradicate the Jews and the waved swastikas, and the number of people online saying that this is justice, and then attacking any Jewish person they can find, or anyone who expresses sympathy. the ones who say that this is what fighting for freedom looks like. it can’t happen here? it already is. this is the most recent incident to instill fear. it probably won’t be the last. this is not aiding liberation, this is not championing human rights or peace. call it what it is.
A pro Palestine mob has just taken over a Russian Airport because a plane landed from Tel Aviv. They are stopping every car and checking passports to tell who is Jewish. They are going door to door in nearby hotels to look for Jews. They burned down a Jewish community center. They are surrounding random people on the street who look jewish and stealing their belongings to see if they can tell if they're jewish and therefore whether they should beat them. This is happening right now.
Open your fucking eyes. This was never about Palestine. This was about killing Jews. Quit being so fucking daft.

if I cannot fly, let me sing. ♡if I wasn't tough, I wouldn't be here.if I wasn't gentle, I wouldn't deserve to be here.♡if not to hunger for the meaning of it all, then tell me what a soul is for?♡if my immortal soul is lost to me, something yet remains. I remain. ♡ a passionate, fragmentary girl; she stood in desperate music wound; voice of a bird, heart like a house; the ghost at the end of the song.♡ Jessica Lynn 🕊❀ paypal ❀
