“Be like MLK”, you say, clutching the romance
of a bloodless racial revolution
that never was. Cite water hoses,
dogs unleashed,
babies bombed, sweet black skulls crushed

the sharpened tip of hatred. Tell the whole story.

gaza has just been completely cut off from the world.
after increased intensity of israeli aistrikes tonight, the last cable providing communications was destroyed. telecommunications have been completely cut off. they cannot reach one another. they cannot reach paramedics. the red crescent society has completely lost contact with their branch in gaza. nobody inside can reach anyone inside, and especially not outside of gaza to tell us what is going on. this is a complete atrocity.
al jazeera has managed to maintain infrequent communication with their journalists in gaza. from their reporter wael dahdouh: “we are not fine. body parts are everywhere, missiles are targeting everyone, and the bombing hasn’t stopped for a second.”
do not stop talking about gaza. they are trying to commit genocide in the dark. do not stop talking.
As a Taylor Swift expert, Gaylor hater, and recovering 1989er, you probably don't want to know that apparently in the notes of the re-recording Taylor Swift talks about how she wasn't dating any of her female friends, and the Gaylors are having meltdowns on twitter. Words like "gaslit" and "queerbaiting" are being used.
of COURSE I want to know about that, I need to go log back into my twitter account RIGHT NOW
also goddddd as a certified 1989 enjoyer I’m gonna have to listen to Taylor’s Version :/
oh damn the girlies are NOT taking this well
sorry I’m so sorry this is the funniest thing that has EVER happened
our homegrown tumblr gaylors are also going through it btw
Holy fuck.
People literally getting ANGRY AT HER for daring to mention she’s STRAIGHT. It’s personally offending her marginalized fans for her to not go along with their desperation for HER to be Queer.
… Me, I’m a P!nk fan, I have no idea what this is about. Delighted not to be Le Involved here.
You left the best part in the tags!
Wow what a coincidence @booksandfiltercoffee was just telling me about gaylor panic in the streets of social media.
That was brought upon by this post
I especially love that Tumblr screenshot saying “if what you’re implying is the truth, just SAY IT” because she has! She’s stated over and over again “I am not gay, I am straight, I am heterosexual” and they REFUSED to believe her and blamed it on compulsory heterosexuality, or her being too scared to come out. She LITERALLY did just say it!
The Palestinian Ministry of Health released a full report with names, ages and IDs of those who were killed – maybe at least in part as a fuck you to Western media and the US president who suddenly cast doubt on the number of fatalities. Over 7000 people died. Whole families wiped out forever. It’s beyond comprehension. May their memory be eternal.
The decision to release the names was made in explicit response to the skepticism of US admin:

The Ministry of Health announcement is here, and ends with a link to the 212 page pdf [both in Arabic]
I’ve never been a huge Sex and the City fan, but I watched the movies and I see the discourse about Charlotte’s kids and it’s bugging me. When people talk about Lily they call her a brat and ungrateful and say she’s living out a million orphaned kids’ dreams. It just reminds me that with adoptees, transracial adoptees in particular, there’s this bizarre expectation that because that kid was “saved” they must be the most perfectly behaved, grateful child on the planet and it’s just gross. Why shouldn’t she be allowed to be as annoying as any other 16-year-old on a bad day without being reminded that Charlotte and Harry “saved” her?
