turkey and azerbaijan are attacking armenia right now, and it's 1915 all over again because the world is distracted and people are too busy wondering if they're gonna live or die, and who gives a shit about my country anyway? my mum told me to tell my friends and explain to them what's happening and that we are the victims in this war because azerbaijan is spreading lies and people are believing their lies and i told her, what good is that going to do? do you think anyone's going to come to our aid? is russia going to help us? is america? is england? erdogan said they will finish what their ancestors started, and he means genocide. he means ethnic cleansing. he means to massacre every last one of us. and in doing so admitted to the very same thing turkey has spent 105 years denying. i don't know who to tell and what good telling people will do because we're a small, insignificant country, and we have nothing to offer to the people in power, the handful who rule the world. so i sit here with my pain and i feel helpless. i know there's twitter threads and links to petitions and people being urged to contact their senators, and sorry if im being pessimistic, but azerbaijan has been attacking us for the last 22 years, and though we defend ourselves, we can't do anything to stop them. they've violated ceasefires (and geneva conventions) multiple times. i don't think they'll rest until every last one of us is dead.
we just want peace. we just want to live peacefully. we're not asking for a lot here.
the universe knows you will learn from your first semester mistakes

Hi. It hurts to do this but I cannot afford to keep my cat while she has special medical needs. She has gingivitis which the vet has recommended needs a consistent treatment. I love her to pieces but above all it's my responsibility that she have a good home who can afford to care for her.
I am loathe to surrender her to a shelter, knowing what kind of malpractice, stress, and negligence can come to an animal there.
She is around six years old, up to date on shots and spayed, a very tiny blue lynx point, incredibly friendly, socialble, and above all extremely docile for a cat. She loves people. She gets very vocal about her needs. In fact, this is the most chatterbox cat I've ever met. She hates sleeping alone and will likely attatch pretty strongly to you if you live with her. She loves being paid attention to and snuggled and can't get enough. And everytime you touch her she'll likely chirp at you.
I'll even provide you a bag of her food and a carrier. If you live around the bay area in CA and want to adopt her, dm for details. Otherwise I appreciate sharing.
Alien: You’re telling me that in times of great distress humans have been known to suddenly gain the strength necessary to lift objects more than a dozen times their own weight?!
Human: Yeah, it’s called “hysterical strength” and it usually happens in life-or-death situations, like when someone gets stuck under a car or something and someone lifts the car to get them out. We can’t really test it though, ‘cause it only happens spontaneously.
Alien: Humans have the ability to tap into untold strength and power and you don’t even know how you do it?
Human: Pretty much, yeah. We think it has something to do with temporary analgesia, so we just don’t feel the pain we should when we pick up a 3000-pound car.
Alien: YOUR PAIN RESPONSE JUST SHUTS OFF?
Human: Yeah, it’s like an adrenaline thing? Do you not have that?
Alien: Fuck you and your entire species of tiny juggernauts.

1820’s-kidnap a girl and literally torture her to the point of insanity and when her family entombs her alive literally doesn’t even lift a finger. Executes a woman (who they thought was pregnant) just because her husband wasn’t what they considered brave. (I have no idea when the Edmund Herondale thing happend so I put it on here, feel free to correct me)
1880’s-Is disgusted by Tessa’s specie and doesn’t hesitate to tell her so. Laughs and ignores when someone asks for their aid to take down their biggest enemy just because the person who asked was a woman. Tries to take away the title of institute head from a completely capable shadowhunter because of her gender.
1920’s- Is still disgusted by Tessa’s specie and doesn’t hesitate to tell her or her two children.
1980’s-starts to show a little bit of humanity that is then destroyed by a racist maniac
2000’s-Humanity? Bye, bye, you little shit and welcome back to stupid-ass decisions town. Nearly gives up and bows down to racist maniac and his demon army because they don’t want to make downworlders equal.
Rips apart a family from their sister because her father was forced to have affairs with a a faerie causing her to have faerie blood, something she certainly had no way of controling. And then forbids them to search for their brother that is literally suffering torture in Fae land. Then, as if that wasn’t enough, submits two eight-year-olds and two twelve-year-olds to trail.
2010’s- Is literally commanded by racist maniac 2.0
So, yeah, the Clave’s a little corrupt shit and I’m yearning for the moment where Alec shuts it down.
im not going to be on tumblr tomorrow (still might check dms), for my own safety and wellbeing. but before i log off, i want to say a couple things
9/11 was a tragedy. everyone knows and sees that. just because i am muslim does not mean that i am going to justify 9/11. whatever bin laden’s motivation was, he did a disgusting thing and killed thousands of innocent people
just because 9/11 was an attack by someone who calls themselves muslims doesnt make all muslims terrorists. i cannot believe this is a sentence i have to type, but here i am. muslims - true muslims - do not condone violence. against anyone. i can go into all the details and the what-ifs and everything, but i dont have the energy for that. just know that violence is strictly frowned upon (note: this does not include self-defense. if somebody is attacking you and you are unable to get away, then fight back. again, there’s no debate on that).
check up on any muslims you know. your friends, neighbours, coworkers, acquaintances, even people you don’t like all that much. we are incredibly stressed out, especially if we live in a western country. just a quick text to see if they’re okay tomorrow will mean a lot
do not think that because you don’t live in america, you’re exempt from this. any western country has this problem, even if you live in a relatively okay area. i do. my friend (who lives in the same area as me) went to walmart and had a hijab on. she was nearly run over (intentionally, the guy was glaring at her and her mother the entire time) while trying to get to the store. she only realized when she got home that it was 9/11. i live in a safe area of canada. this should not be happening. but it is.
if you are in any way, shape, or form, islamophobic, get the hell off my blog
