There is so much fear-mongering about sharia law, when the actual fear should be from oppressive government institutions using Sharia law as an excuse to justify their actions. These countries say they follow sharia law and if someone dissents, they are called an enemy of state and executed. And whenever you use sharia as a representative of oppression of women, you effectively shit on those who died to protest against the hypocrisy and let the corruption win. This is not a friendly reminder. Sharia law is to resolve disputes with equal rights given to both men and women. It is very easy to defend all women instead of just one group of them. Malaysia and Indonesia also use Sharia law. While those countries do have problems with women's rights, those problems are completely different from middle eastern countries (more similar to India then Saudi Arabia). You don't see them being denied the right to work, right to education, being forced to wear or remove their hijabs .etc.
already seeing a lot of *drops comparisons to muslim countries*/*uneducated quips about sharia law*/*general fear mongering, racism and islamophobia*
friendly reminder to express your anger about roe v wade without being a bigot

Or it's James. He was extremely concerned with Matthew's drinking, the annoyed shake may be him being annoyed at them for dredging up memories of his parabatai or may even be him sobbing or dry-heaving at Matthew's name, he was bound to Grace since childhood, Lucie risked herself for Jesse Blackthorn, he could easily recognise Alastair's dagger and to Cordelia and Alastair, Cirenworth was the home of the Carstairs. Also the wine flask may remind him of what Cordelia suffered due to Elias. He is also mentioned in the Bane Chronicles, The tales of the Shadowhunter Academy and in the epilogue of the TID series. His ring (a silver band with herons) was also given to Jace and Jace gave it to Kit. Also he was mentioned by Tessa and Clary in the epilogue of a City of Heavenly Fire.
GUYS IT COULD BE RISA OR SONA
DISLIKES MATTHEW ( Risa does, Sona could after Cordelia ran away with him) ✅
Has something to do with Alastair ✅
BTS V (Taehyung) said purple symbolises his brotherly love for his members and gratitude for Army ( their fandom ) as the youngest member said it was his favourite colour. Then the ace community used it in the same context of friendship and sibling love and that's how 💜 caught on.
wait what's the contextual difference between ❤️ and 💜
What's interesting to note is that back in the covid era, TikTok was banned along with a number of Chinese apps in India (around 40 of them). You know what happened? People simply moved on to Instagram or Snapchat. I think something similar may happen. And American companies like Meta will greatly benefit. They might even launch a new app.
How does the batfam celebrate the TikTok ban?
So my two cents that no one asked for is that a TikTok ban is actually Not A Good Thing. A lot of small businesses and artists (including my own band) rely on TikTok for marketing and growing an audience. TikTok is also a source of community for people from marginalized groups who might not feel safe expressing themselves in real life, especially younger folks. Not to mention the amount of real-time news we get that other sites suppress, such as the raw footage from Gaza or people organizing healthcare protests.
Does TikTok have issues specific to its platform? Undeniably. It's a digital meth house where I got flagged for the using the fuck word in a lyric. But when you find yourself dealing with a meth house, you don't take a wrecking ball to it and evict the residents. Banning Tiktok won't stop the widespread trends that other social media sites have now adopted. We still have short-form content. We still have algorithms tailoring our feed for the maximum dopamine rush while bombarding us with ads. Companies are still harvesting and selling our data. The worst people you can think of still have a Wi-Fi connection.
What will happen if TikTok is banned is that all these people and all these problems will be dispersed even further, making them even harder to address. All the while, it sets a dangerous new precedent for government censorship and the level of power it has over our information and communication. I don't know about you, but the shit I can't access worries me a lot more than all the shit I can.
I don't know how to save this other than reblogging. Fake subs by bang-tan.
y’all ready know hoseoks lap dance game be too strong, its almost a crime (more fake subz here)
DO NOT REPOST
Sounds good.
Hi!
I’m witchlightdreams and I’m planning to reread the entirety of The Last hours including online extras and side stories in other companion books of the Shadowhunter and I made a plan so everyone can join me. 💜
The Shadowhunter wiki has a very concise timeline of the stories, but it doesn’t include the online Extras and snippets that aren’t canon. So I put together a longer list that has all extras (excluding a few super short snippets) together. This is probably not for people who read TLH for the first time though, since a few of the short stories and extras contain spoilers.
I already asked people if they would be interested in a book club to reread TLH and I got much positive feedback. I thought long about how to achieve a communal book club so I had the idea of just making a hashtag that hasn’t been used yet to share our thoughts on the current chapter, post art, etc. What do you guys think of #TLH reread challenge?
I’ve made a plan in which order I will read the The Last hours again before the big finale and everyday I will post something about the reading section of the day, life-blog about my thoughts while reading, post art and reblog other stuff from the hashtag, so if you want to keep up-to-date and join the book club, you can either follow this blog or the hashtag or just DM me if you want to join the book club but don’t want to post yourself. I would be very interested to read this communally, so if you want to read at the same time as me, please use the tag or tell me directly. Of course you can also join later or skip the extras at the beginning entirely.
Of course no one has to follow my recommended plan, you should always read in your own time and find joy in reading. I just made this for myself and everyone who wants to read parallel with me. I’m trying to keep every daily section under 50 pages and always between 25-45 pages, but in the beginning it might not be possible, especially with the extra stories, since they don’t have page numbers and because short stories are usually longer than chapters.
If you want resources where to find the extra stories, I made a second post for that and tagged it with our book club tag.
In case you don’t own the companion books or don’t want to read the short stories because they’re too long, that’s not a problem! The Shadowhunter wiki has a good summary of those so you don’t have knowledge gaps!
Happy reading!
