the men and boys are innocent too.

we cry "the innocent women and children" to appeal to the masses, to try and force their sympathy, but the men and boys are innocent too.

I have seen sons crying out for their mothers, their fathers, their siblings. I have seen them break down at the loss of their families. I have seen them cling to their dead and grieve.

I have seen fathers cradle their dead children, seen them kiss their faces and hold their little hands. I have seen them faint with grief when asked to identify the dead. I have seen them carry their sons and daughters. I have seen them fasting to provide what little they can for their families.

I have seen men and boys digging through the rubble with just their bare hands, I have seen them comforting strangers, playing with children, rocking them, hushing them, even if the face of such imminent danger. I have seen them cry, seen them grieve, seen them break down into each other's arms, seen them be selfless, beyond selfless, becoming something I don't have a word for.

I have seen the men who are doctors refuse to leave their patients, even when they have no medicine or supplies to give them, even when they're threatened with bombings. I have seen fathers who have lost all their children pick orphans up into their arms and proclaim them their child so they are not alone. I have seen men and boys digging pets out of the rubble.

the men are innocent too. the men and boys are being hurt and killed too. the men and boys are grieving too. the men and boys are scared too. the men and boys are fighting to save their people too. the men and boys deserve to be fought for too.

This is for people of Israel/anyone who supports Israel/anyone who wants to stay "neutral" about this genocide, remember that this is how your fav "defenders/heroes/government servants are supposed to be responsible" are talking about innocent Palestinians civilians:

If you choose not to speak on this matter, if you choose to not speak up for Palestinians, then be well assured, 100% guaranteed that what's happening in Palestine can (and will if you let Israel get away with MASS MURDER) also just as easily happen to you, and then there will be other people who would stay "neutral" and silent on this matter.

If you think that the reason you're not taking sides is because you don't really know the situation that well, then EDUCATE yourself. It is your responsibility, as a fucking human, to do your research to stop and prevent such atrocities from being committed.

(I know, I FUCKING KNOW I have at least a few dozen followers from Israel/support Israel/ZIONISTS who are reading this and I know that your eyes may be blind, but your hearts aren't. Don't be a hypocrite, and don't be ignorant)

Israeli official calls for 'doomsday' nuclear strike on Gaza that will 'shake Middle East'

Boys.

jewishvoiceforpeace: This is what genocide looks like. These are the 2913 Palestinian children killed by the Israeli military this month, as of Thursday, October 26. As the Israeli airstrikes on Gaza intensify, we recognize with horror and grief that this death toll is already inaccurate.

We demand a ceasefire now to save lives. To stop a genocide. The Israeli military has already erased 47 entire Palestinian families from Gaza's population registry; all members of the family, from all generations, are dead. This is loss beyond measure.

The U.S. is also responsible for this horror. 80% of the bombs that the Israeli military drops on Gaza, that are used to kill these children, are American-made. We are called to do everything we can to stop this genocide.

As we continue to demand a ceasefire and fight for a future where everyone is free and equal and safe, we refuse to forget these lives. We will always affirm that every life is precious.

Every single one of these deaths was preventable. When we say Never Again-for anyone, this is who we mean. Never Again is right now.

Beep boop! I look for accidental haiku posts. Sometimes I mess up.

Now imagine growing up in your formative years in the 80's in NYC constantly hearing stories like these and seeing it on the news all the time.

This is why I've always hated Trump; LONG before he was president. He's been doing this since the 70's.

NO. MORAL. BAROMETER.

remember how i said israel has to expressly permit any entry or exit even through egypt's border with gaza? and that this has always been the case and why gaza is considered an 'open air prison?'

israel is now not allowing irish or brazilian citizens in gaza waiting at the border because their countries called for a ceasefire. it is effectively holding them hostage in gaza as it bombs them. insofar it has bombed the rafah border with egypt five times, and bombed injured evacuees in ambulances en route to the border too.

rogue state, terrorist country, accountable to no one and immune to consequences. israel continues to make a mockery of international law.

Angel of God Chaining The Demon of Lust. Jan Steen

ca.1660 Museum Bredius

“WHAT HAVE YOU GOT IN YOUR MOUTH?”

“Blarlarlarlblar,” said the Demon of Lust, nearly dislocating its own legs as it fought like a baby evading a diaper change.

“Could you stop! Eating! Garbage! For! One! Minute! STOP WIGGLING.”

The Demon of Lust, in a simultaneously guilty but reproachful way, stopped wiggling. Instead, it held still but stretched itself slowly but relentlessly backwards. Its eyes fixed on a new object of desire. The heap of steaming hot garbage throbbed in its vision. Upside-down, just out of reach - or was it? Carefully not wiggling, it stretched its neck backwards, extending its tongue. It could practically taste it.

“Don’t think I don’t see - no! That’s literally burning garbage!”

“Blarlarlar!”

“No! It’s burning your actual face!”

“Blarlarlar.”

“That’s it. Kennel. KENNEL.”

“Blar,” said the saddest demon in the world, staring fixedly at the hot mess.

“Lust CAN help itself around trash fires,” the angel said sternly, handling the demon in a method popularized by people trying to administer pills to struggling cats. “You can’t fix it. You’ll hurt yourself making it worse.”

“Blar.”

“Oh, tell you what. You can have a blorbo as a treat. Nice blorbo. Come on, puppy, into the kennel. Nice blorbo for you.”

A 2pm appointment can take all day when you're autistic

I'm in this picture and I don't like it!

This is exactly how I plan appointments but I had no idea this was autistic.

I don't know how it could work any other way? Just out of curiosity, how would a neurotypical person do this?

I'm not actually neurotypical but what I do is wake up, fuck around until the last minute doing things in whatever order I remember to do them, check the clock, remember I forgot something, run out of the house, then get to the train station with 0 minutes to spare
