NEW: Joseph Quinn for Contents Man

I dream about the house I grew up in. I’d love to go back to my kitchen, with my friends, cook dinner and be young and dumb.

#but that smile though

I have just watched some of the most heartbreaking, horrific videos of Palestinian people finding out their family has died. One was a young mother, her two children were martyred and her cries will forever remain imprinted in my brain.

People would say to me ‘just skip past them’ or ‘why do you watch them? you’re only making yourself upset’ and they are the same people who will repost one sympathy post on their Instagram because everyone else is doing it.

But there’s a reason to watch those videos.

It’s because I never want to be desensitised. I want to feel that pain, that anger, that grief for people I never knew, mourn the lives of those who I’ve never heard of. I want to remember them.

Remember every single Palestinian life.

And I always think to myself, as I wipe away another fallen tear, that the pain I feel, as a stranger thousands of miles away, sitting comfortably in my room that I never fear will collapse in on me at any moment, the pain I feel is not even an ounce of the mothers and fathers and aunties and uncles and grandparents and children who have lost their family.

It makes me fucking sick to see the propaganda used against these people. I’m so fucking sick of the same question that’s always asked; Do you condemn Hamas?

No. I don’t. Happy? Is that the answer you want to hear? That I support what they’re doing?

Every child that has died is a tragedy. Every life lost at that music festival is a tragedy. But, Hamas aren’t the ones attacking here. They’re defending. They are the ones fighting back. israel has been the oppressors, the settlers, and the murderers. The lies and propaganda they spread around is sickening, to the point where CNN reporters lie in ditches in ‘israel’ to make it seem like they’re under attack, yet there’s people literally cycling by them like it’s a normal day.

To the point where israeli influencers post bullshit like ‘day in the life: we’re at war edition’ and shows her bitch ass making gluten free bread for the IDF because *gasp* they ran out! But there’s Palestinians who are carrying their dead children’s remains in plastic bags, who are storing bodies in ice cream trucks because there’s simply no more space.

Open your fucking eyes.

I went to a protest today, and I protested right outside of my university. And I felt guilty.

Why? Because I was scared someone would see me and I would get kicked out. And I hate myself for thinking of such stupid, trivial things like where I’m going to get my degree from when the Palestinians are wondering where they’re going to get their next sip of water.

I’ve come to the realisation that I seriously don’t give a fuck anymore. Kick me out of uni, arrest me, block my social media, never employ me.

I. Don’t. Care.

I will do anything and everything for the freedom of Palestine.

It’s Free Palestine until Palestine is Free. 🇵🇸

drop some of your favourite tropes that you would like to see/associate with stranger things characters. preferably steve, billy, and eddie, but i will try my best for all the characters!! <3

"24 massacres in 24 hours"

This is how Palestinians are describing today (October 23) in Gaza

The death toll had passed 5000 including 2000 children

Five thousand murdered in two weeks

1200 of which are unaccounted for under the entire residential buildings that have been flattened

This is not normal

We cannot get used to these numbers

This is horrific and we need to keep advocating and holding israel accountable for this and call it what it is: genocide.

Read, share, boycott, amplify Gazan voices - do whatever you can but don't ignore this now that you know.
