"If you're queer why don't you support the war (genocide) on Gaza? Palestine is homophobic!!!" I don't know, maybe because people shouldn't be murdered on mass for living in a homophobic country? Maybe because a government being homophobic doesn't justify ethnic cleansing? Maybe because queers in Palestine aren't going to feel "liberated" by the IDF murdering their children? Maybe because I'm not a fucking racist???
Be serious, there are so many homophobic countries. Would you condone murdering polish civilians for living in a homophobic country? Would you cheer at people in Florida having to carry their children in plastic bags? Would that be for the greater cause of queer liberation? Or is it only justified when it's brown people and Muslims?
How dare you expect queers to be "grateful" to the Israeli government for committing literal fucking genocide.
Y O S H I W A R A ( 吉原 ) : “A trip to the Yoshiwara was an opportunity to slip out of time. Instead of the ties that kept the social hierarchy of old Edo in place, the red-light district was bound by a new hierarchy of aesthetic, sensual and sexual pleasure.”

The juxtaposition between these two is incredibly well done. In addition to their conversation, you can also literally see that Takasugi and Zura are just different versions of each other. (It’s especially poignant since Zura’s hair is chopped.) Takasugi’s heretical and chaotic. Zura’s traditional and disciplined. Takasugi dresses flamboyantly and keeps a shikomizue at his side– a cane sword. Zura dresses modestly and uses a standard katana.
Despite their polar personalities, they actually have a lot common. They’ve known each other the longest out of the Joui Four being classmates in that military academy before attending Shouyou’s school, and both are leaders of new Jouishishi factions working to usher in change. So how did they become such stark contrasts of each other? What was the catalyst?
It was Gintoki.
Zura admires Gintoki for bearing his unjust suffering without hatred. Zura even says to to Takasugi, “Do you know how many times I have wanted to reduce this world to ashes? However, that man has always endured it. Gintoki. He who has the most reason to hate this world has always endured it.” Takasugi, on the other hand, blindly refuses every line of logic and commits to making Gintoki the object of blame. He just cannot accept that there may have been a bigger reason as to why Gintoki “didn’t abandon them to save sensei.” Zura has never once accused Gintoki for Shouyou’s death, while Takasugi chooses to harbor deep resentment.
Takasugi and Zura are two sides of the same coin, yet, the most significant characteristic they share is how emotionally fragile they truly are. Maybe the loss of their sensei wasn’t enough to drive Zura over the edge, but the loss of Gintoki in the Be Forever Yorozuya movie was. Gintoki and Zura are nothing short of brothers, but they’re related by history rather than blood. (Well, maybe bloodshed too…) Losing your best friend, your only family, and the one person you trusted wholeheartedly– of course that kind of grief could consume and break a man. And perhaps that’s why present-day Zura admires Gintoki so much. Maybe he’s fully aware that he’s not as emotionally strong as Gintoki.
Shouyou was to Takasugi as Gintoki is to Zura, and in this light, Takasugi isn’t so crazy and evil anymore. In different lifetimes he and Zura (sweet, stupid Zura) share the same tragedy.
…sorry for the hella Gintama feels. This thought struck me last night, and I had to flesh it out in writing. There’s so much potential between these two of Shouyou’s brats. Please, Sorachi they need another confrontation!
Hello, this is a longshot saving life call, I am Imonje from Gaza. I am here to request for your support to help get my insulin, just an injection for today to save my life please I beg. I was diagnosed with Latent Autoimmune Diabetes and due to the current situation in Gaza I'm unable to get my insulin injection as a result I'm here begging for little financial support to help me purchase insulin for this week.

This is the only option I have at the moment to save my life from going into a coma.
