Ingrid Tearney (Sophie Okonedo) from Slow Horses.

just got a second official warning for my use of "from the river to the sea, palestine will be free" on the OTW volunteer slack

people are also currently asking board to ban saying that the founding of israel was colonialism—equating this to saying racial slurs—and were complaining about my status back when it was "palestine will be free", too

suffice to say, fuck that place, don't give the OTW your money, and don't fucking volunteer there

(the second screenshot is from the warning I got a few days ago)

I keep thinking about how the media frames Palestinian children, stripping them rhetorically of their childhood by convoluted phrases like 'people under 18' and 'minors as they call them'. I know this language. It is used for black children all the time. Black children aren't children. They're 'young men' and 'twelve-year-olds in adult bodies'. Colonial dehumanisation.

normalize sexualizing that old woman without having mommy issues. maybe i don't want to be her pet because i'm traumatized. maybe i want to be her pet because she's hot. you ever think of that.

Attack (by Isarel) on the funeral procession of Palestinian-American journalist Shireen Abu Akleh, who was killed on the job (again, by israel) while reporting in the West Bank.

This happened in May 2022, btw, in case anyone was thinking that Israeli fuckery is a recent thing. Then again, this is one of the least heinous things they have done tbh.

It was never about Hamas.
