I have the inkling that courting war criminals and keeping to arm an openly Theo-fascist goverment committing genocide might not have work well for the Blues, especially when the one courting the Republican voters is a black and brown woman who seems to be ok with Brown people being slaughtered, immigrants being weaponised and deamonised, and Black people being incarcerated.
Liberals asking 'how is this possible', I have a question for you: 'Do you just fall from a coconut tree?' ๐ฅฅ ๐ด To which I would answer: 'You exist in the context of of all in which you live and what came before you' but you refused to listen because you were too busy trying to get war criminals endorsing you.
Yesterday night I wanted to draw some fairies, my little way of retiring from reality. However this is the only thing that came out. I don't know, I would probably delete it later. I wonder if Palestinians and all the Arab people suffering because of Western imperialism could ever forgive us.
Monday writing lecture: find the passive and the active voice in The Guardian's headlines, or how to paraphrase 'we have double standards and journalism can fuck off to the sun':
20 Palestinians 'die' in an anonymous 'strike' in Gaza, while Israeli soldiers are 'killed' by Hezbollah.
The meteorologist can't hold his tears. Reinventing our societies and changing our economies towards a just pluralist interspecies ecological living should be our only and top priority.
And yet, the answer is more far-right ideologies, division, and increasing militarism.
PLEASE BOOST - I mistakenly blocked Mastodon.social again!
I needed to block someone who was cheering on the Lebanon attack on mastondon.social and instead made the mistake to block the entire domain
There is no warning (bad design) when you block a domain. Anyway, if you where following me on there, please re-follow. If you have problems on why I was blocking someone cheering a terrorists attack, you can move on and away from me.
The land of my grandparents is becoming a desert, while tourists exacerbate the pressure on resources which are becoming scarcer and scarcer. Tourism for me has always been another form of colonialism: locals left with the scraps of the land that they inhabit while tourists use the latest resources available. The BS of a tourist-based economy is destroying the land of my childhood, and the contempt I feel for it is unspeakable.
I accidentally (and stupidly) blocked the entire mastodon.social domain, removing around 100 followers/following. If I was following you or you were following me, please just let me know: hit the follow button and I'll follow you back.
What for a #FollowFriday post, does it show that my brain is not fucntioning properly?
"We call upon our colleagues in the homeland and internationally to support our steadfast attempts to defend and preserve our universities for the sake of the future of our people, and our ability to remain on our Palestinian land in Gaza. We built these universities from tents. And from tents, with the support of our friends, we will rebuild them once again."
@aral I already have a spare Windows laptop that I wanted to use to install Linux and start exploring it. Any advice for a dummy non-developer like me to start (even just a link with instructions)
