whatever the joker's gone through i've been through worse
You know why I love Kwak Dongyeon so much? ‘Cause he just seems like a dude who wandered into acting and is vibing. Therefore he is my new actor husband
"Kill the largest number possible. The baby is an enemy. The first grader is an enemy. The pregnant woman is the enemy." -Israeli analyst and IDF veteran, Eliyahu Yossian expresses Israel's genocidal intent
"Hamas is not the enemy here, Gaza is the enemy. It's not important who you warn or who evacuates a neighborhood. This is what's called flattening the area, leveling the ground. You ask me what I would do? The answer is simply leveling the ground and to kill the largest number possible. Because the woman there is an enemy, the baby is an enemy. The first grader is an enemy. And the pregnant woman is the enemy. We see a boy carrying chocolate in his hand. He will learn to use a weapon. He is a terrorist even though he is a boy."

AGREED AGREED AGREED. i think about this all the time-- like the fact that mello lacked all the funding, all the government clearance and assistance, and ability to move freely that near had, and STILL managed to match near, and even overtaking him at some parts of the case, shows how insanely fucking smart and impressive he is
not to forget that near started off with backing and equipment but mello also had to join and take over the mafia since he ran away
I constantly think about the fact that if you ask a death note fan who is the #1 successor to L, they will say Near without a beat most likely, when in actuality, there was never a choice made so Mello and Near are on the same level and mello was just never given the time of day and it makes me so upset
the idea that it’s ‘creepy’ to interact with things posted a long time ago is so terrible for artists and contributes to the pressure to be constantly creating new work, at an unhealthy and unsustainable rate. I hate it so much.
If you cannot strike today, find Palestinian music, cook Palestinian food, read books by Palestinian authors. Israel is trying to destroy Palestinian culture as well.

Ozai is so pathetic, like that “take his bending away haha he’s harmless now” trick would never have worked on Zuko, if you took his bending away he’d just grab his swords and come at you twice as hard, Azula doesn’t have swords or anything but she’s pretty good at hand to hand and amazing at talking her way out of problems, Iroh bust himself out of prison with no bending at all, meanwhile Ozai? Gets his bending taken away and then just collapses, doesn’t even try anymore, then just sits in prison and tries to get into Zuko’s head some more, he could have trained up and tried to break out too! But no! Bet he can’t break steel bars with his bare hands. Bet he can’t kick a steel lever in two. Bet he can’t even do a flip.
Also we never really see him do any really impressive firebending apart from when he has magic comet power, I guesss he shoots some lightning at Zuko, but that’s it and Azula is still better at the lightning thing. Azula has blue flames. Zuko can do firebreakdancing and bend with his swords. Does Ozai, who is not 14 years old, have blue flames? No he doesn’t.
He didn’t even do his coup himself, Ursa had to kill Azulon for him! Could have just challenged Iroh to an Agni Kai for the throne but he didn’t bc he knew he’d lose.
And then he only ruled for like 6 years! He lost a war that had been going on for 100 years bc of a bunch of kids.
Loserlord indeed
there's a certain amount of privilege and naivety that comes with the people who truly believe in the phrase "you can't fight violence with violence".
What exactly are the oppressed supposed to do to protect themselves and their families and their land that's acceptable for you?
Are they supposed to sit down and write love letters?
Are they supposed to sit down and wait for the world to pressure Israel into no longer oppressing them? I mean it's been more than 70 years, how much longer should they wait for nonexistent International aid?
How many more years of western media acting as though "those Arab terrorists" and one of the most advanced militaries in the world protected behind an iron dome funded by western nations are on the same level and that it's an equal conflict, are we supposed to witness?
How many international war crimes do Israel have to commit without facing a hint of consequences before it becomes clear that the majority of western nations do support Israel and do not want Palestine to be freed because it would be inconvenient for them?
How did you think we were gonna fight for Palestine?
by trending hashtags? by simply preaching "decolonisation" without physically doing anything? By voting? (lmao) be serious.
This is a war that's been going on for decades. Not some playground shit. Palestinians have been oppressed for decades. Hundreds of innocent Palestinians are murdered every year in cold blood. Hundreds are displaced. The people of Gaza have been trapped in one of the biggest open air tightly controlled prisons for a very long time.
Realistically speaking, this horror and this war is not gonna end by Palestinians sitting down, twiddling their thumbs and hoping the state that's shown no mercy and stopped at nothing to try and erase them will show them kindness and mercy all of a sudden.
This is the same state full of civilians that go around chanting "death to Arabs" on their own holiday. The same state who's soldiers and civilians make it a tradition to attack people simply praying every ramadan.
You think those people will stop trying to gain more land and wipe out Palestinians with treaties, kind words and gifts?
When will it be acceptable for Palestinians to defend themselves and for those in Gaza to try and break free from their prison?
What exactly were you expecting?
