#when i wake up i will add more

on twitter, a viral thread started where people around the world shared their translations of “If I must die”, the last work of Dr Refaat Alareer also known as "the voice of Gaza". A beloved poet, teacher and life-long activist for Palestine, he was recently assassinated along with members of his extended family by a targeted Israeli air strike. His loss leaves a hole in the heart of palestinians all over the world.

Below the cut, I’ll be posting the translations of his poem, with links to the original posts. Unfortunately, tumblr limits posts to a maximum of 30 images. I will update when I can.

#probably one of the most beautiful threads to ever grace twitter's rotten husk of a platform #i really earnestly almost cried #when people say the world stands with palestine #they mean they speak with palestine as well #israel murders palestinian poets to silence their voice. their culture. their lifeblood #in response the world amplifies his voice tenfold #but what a loss #what an unforgivable loss #i hope it is some consolation to those who loved refaat that his words are now immortalised in languages all over the world #that he has united so many people in their pursuit of palestinian freedom #please please please feel free to add your own translations onto the post in reblogs #i just havent seen anything about this thread on tumblr yet #im just the messenger #palestine will be free #the words of refaat alareer will be immortalised #and his students will carry on his legacy #ah but it is almost 5am and i havent slept #when i wake up i will add more #free palestine #israel #refaat alareer #rest in peace

#maybe im being pessimistic abt this. im not saying u should wear a mask every waking moment of your life god knows i cant #but also. hell no i dont trust u if anything i distrust u ppl even more after how things played out for the past 3 years #like there are situations where it might be inevitable catching covid. most of my family members are nurses and in constant contact #but there are also a ton of ways to make that risk low as possible like masking and wearing a face shield and having sanitizer #for me its not enough to just say oh we're in a small group and we're all vaccinated #motherfucker your kid is sick from preschool EVERY TIME WE VISIT. of course ill be wearing a mask she gave me covid last year #also no the fuck it isnt seasonal the cases go up because lack of caution makes the virus spread and mutate especially around times when #ppl gather. add that with virus transmission in cold weather and its a matter of different factors increasing the risk of spread #im also tired of ppl not understanding that i wont be their responsibility if i do get sick. maybe they can help me recover #but at the end of the day the risk of death and long term health is all on me. i cant change that #the govt barely gives me accommodations what makes u think theyll do anything for every individual case of long covid or worse #im so tired. im so tired #i dont even know if its possible to want this to be over anymore i just wish we didnt have to deal with this in the first place #ALSO COUGH INTO YOUR SLEEVE SERIOUSLY HOW IS THIS SO HARD TO REMEMBER #oh its just a cold/dry throat its not like i have covid or anything. no!! its basic hygiene!!! how is this so hard to understand!!!!!!!!!! #and no this isnt abt whether people have the means to protect themselves this is me bitching abt my relatives not taking me seriously #vent #my art #myart #doodles #covid 19

the school arc to me is so good because it drags ciel out of his position as a powerful figure and literally places him in the shoes of the person he could have been. the circus arc ALSO drags him out of his position as big bad queens watch dog/head of the phantomhive estate but the school arc feels like a mockery of a future that never was. this is what he could have been had his parents not died. and even then its NOT because he will never be that kid.

he never was.

#ramblings #incoherent beyond belief its 4 am #and im trying to avoid manga spoilers #might add a reblog with more coherent thoughts when i wake up but im off my meds so i cant promise anything #actually correction im being vague w the manga spoilers #manga readers know whats up #idk if there are any anime only ppl who havent been spoiled on The Plottwist Ever yet #but i figured there will be new fans and though im not tagging this it might still get seen so #cant WAIT to see our boy absolutely miserable in animation form should they recreate that arc LMAOOO #which ofc is after the germany arc so thats still a long time away #but STILL. itd be fun i need to see this young teenager lose his mind in color with sound #him relying on sebastian to do all his fag duties (sorry. dredge) so he can work his way up the social ladder #trying to gain power while simultaneously proving that he cant do anything but rely on others #hes always needed help in basically every way and he hasnt CHANGED he just got a demon to do it for him #he learns to lie and charm and cheat and all the while hes a fucking CHILD WHO STILL STRUGGLES WITH NORMAL THINGS #ciel is my little baby and i love him deeply no matter how much of a little bitch he can be #his helplessness isnt just 'oh he was raised in british high society' its also that he never got the chance to learn anything #which to elaborate on that id also have to go into manga territory. iykyk #like absolutely at this point he just refuses to learn how to do things he has a pet demon to do it for him #but. #hi the phantomhives backstory is killing me again its so late #both atlantic and the school arc are just setup for the Big Arc but theyre very good in their own right i SWEAR #also when i rewatched the circus arc a while back and i realised how some scenes were shot #the heavy foreshadowing that i didnt realise. yk. 7 years ago or however long its been since i first watched it #CRAZY #if you are new. to kuroshitsuji. and you havent read the manga. dear god. read the manga #ALSO GRELLE IN THAT ARC IS SO BEAUTIFUL & OTHELLO IS TRANSMASCULINE. OKAY GOODBYE

After Harry’s better homes and gardens interview, I’ve taken some time to think about some of the things said and the reactions to it.

1) This discourse that’s become quite popular lately about queer people needing to be out, and how liberating it is to be out, is such a cishet and/or privileged narrative. I get so mad whenever people mention it.

First I think the background on why there is so much focus on coming out is a cishet thing. Coming out has become such a glorified thing. And I think the main reason for this is, it’s the part where cishets get to be apart of the experience. Now they have the knowledge of who or what another person identifies as and therefore gets to feel like they have the right to insert themselves in other peoples feelings.

Sexuality and identity is so personal. Being out in - let’s be realistic here - most cultures and countries, will mean you get in the best case scenario looked down upon and rejected from friends and family, and worst case you get abused, tortured and even killed. And before any person comes for me, yes I know there are people who get accepted by friends and family, most do not. And when we take a look into the celebrity world and the statements that have been made from and about queer people, we know that his industry has a reputation of looking down upon and excluding openly queer people.

Personally I’m actually kind of a fan of Harry not sharing his sexuality openly with the world. He does not owe anyone coming out especially after what he has been through such scrutiny from the public. Everything from his sex life to his fav colour has been discussed publicly. And even if he hadn’t had all of this public scrutiny he does not owe anyone a coming out, just consider how most of the world perceives queer people. Him getting to keep this part of himself to himself and the people closest to him is quite meaningful.

2) Harry’s self awareness

This has so many layers, but in all I think we can all learn a lot from Harry.

He shows how much he takes stock of where he is and how he can better himself. This, to me, has some roots from how reflective he is over every little thing he does. And you can see the fruits of his reflections, from his public performances and how he used to lose his breath when singing his solo in wmyb, to nailing it in front of a 100 000 people at Coachella. Or from how he sees he made his worst music when he’s trying to get a single to figuring out how he’s really good at bringing people together and create together with others.

He’s teaching us to learn from the past, live in the moment and plan for the future. This is where we can all learn so much from Harry.

3) Harry and Louis deciding to be good and stay humble on the x factor.

This part is not talked about enough. How from such a young age he decided part of his identity is to stay nice and humble towards everyone he comes across. Because he saw/heard how unfairly celebrities treated other people, and not wanting to be part of that. The biggest part I took away is how once again Harry is described as nothing but nice and an overall good human being.

4) The music industry

This part kills me. I know we’ve talked about this for ages, but hearing him actually confirm the cleanliness clause, and compare his own situation to the Britney documentary. How he and all the boys were dolls puppets, who had little control over where they could sit, talk or even how they could express themselves without repercussions.

5) Still just as domestic

This part in the article: “So he used lockdown to commit to being a better friend, son, brother. He pushed himself to confront things he hadn't brought up, had many long, honest chats. And like most people who found themselves suddenly very, very inside, he thought a lot about the idea of home—about belonging, peace, sanctuary. "I realized that that home feeling isn't something that you get from a house; it's more of an internal thing. You realize that when you stop for a minute," he said.”

Of course he had to bring up feeling home. And how throughout his discography he’s described his love as the feeling of home. Yes Harry we know you’re in love, you domestic little shit *affectionate*.

6) My takeaways

It was so nice to read a quite honest piece about Harry after such a long time. Something that feels real, and not so staged.

Harry having chosen better homes and gardens for this interview also seems very deliberate, in how he not only gets his message out to a bigger audience. Also it doesn’t seem like this magazine has any real connections to the music industry, so to me this feels a lot more free in the way Harry is able to express himself, without being subjected to questions related to eg. stunts.

I will say this to me it feels like Harry is sharing so much of himself, and given how he discussed how much he likes his privacy, this feels quite intimate, at least in a psychological way. I’m not sure how I feel about this, as I’ve seen way to many fans feel entitled to know everything there is to know about Harry.

I love how it takes us through the journey on how Harry came to make this album and some of his feeling behind the album.

As I said we can all learn something from Harry, if it is to reflect over your situation and do something about it, instead of blaming everything around you, take responsibility for the things you can do. Or to be more kind and loving to the people we surround overselves with. Or to appreciate the domestic feelings.

P.S. Gina, I love your fic recs and how reflective and intelligent you are. I would love to hear your thoughts on this, but please don’t feel pressured to answering me/posting this. Sending you lots of love!

Hi darling. Thank you so much for this. I wish I had thoughts that improved upon or added to it, but I just completely agree with you. It’s the best interview with him I think I’ve ever read.

I love having a dedicated and aware dream alter like sometimes I just wake up with memories of a new superpower this dude's been at it for nearly two decades and still learns new tricks like last night he unlocked walking on air, which might not seem like much for a guy who can already fly in multiple ways, but the thing is walking on air, it turns out, is just a lot easier when it comes to things like taking off from ledges. But like it's like I'm just waking up Matrix style "I know kung fu" but it's instead of martial arts I'm just learning new superpowers that I don't actually have. Whatever they did that in the Matrix too.

#sfw #personal #ok to reblog #Teeth dream #less happy note is that the same dream reminded me how lonely he is in there. everyone he meets is an NPC. #he met mom in the dream and for a moment she seemed like a full person and he actually for once CHOSE to interact with an NPC #(dreams often have scripts he has to follow and thus he's forced to deal with them when he just wants to play with his powers) #but the moment didn't last and it became clear again that she was not sentient and he was disappointed but not surprised and he left #but just. for a moment. just one short moment I think he felt like he wasn't alone. he's used to it but damn he shouldn't have to be. #two decades. although I guess total dream time would add up to something closer to one year but idc which count is more accurate. #brain makes him to fight off nightmares and for a long time his reality was always waiting for the right moment to turn on him #he learned quickly that it was no use trying to talk to anyone because there's not really anyone there #the nightmares eventually go away but he's still there. doing nothing but dream. only experiencing the waking world through shared memories. #on rare rare occasions he gets little moments like that where he isn't alone...

[aerithisms]

i just can't believe they made me cry so much over the most inevitable character death ever like this is a character death i knew about before i knew literally anything else about final fantasy and they still made me bawl like a small child

#blahs #ff7 #rebirth spoilers #even though i love her death scene in the original and it's had such a lasting legacy because it was so powerful #i do think it was a move of evil genius to add the layer of cloud not understanding what happened #it's so fucked up. makes it so much more sad. someone he loves is gone and he doesn't understand. he thinks he saved her. #and it means they can really prolong the tragedy of it in part 3 when cloud finally finally wakes up to reality and it hits him like a truc #still hoping we'll get some of his og lines about it in part 3. 'aerith will no longer talk. no longer laugh... cry... or get angry.'

One thing I do look forward to about in-person work for the first time in four and a half years, even if it's 28 miles of travel both ways right during the worst winter months, is I can't be my father's free Chore Servant when he's too busy (read: disorganized and lazy) to sort things before he leaves for the day

#just this morning the guy calls me eight minutes before my shift starts when I'm still in bed trying to wake up and goes #'oh by the way I didn't take the dogs outside can you handle that' #this is a process that takes five minutes normally #on top of the three to five i need to get dressed use the bathroom etc #AND one of the dogs is on medication right now #add another two #also this man was standing around in his kitchen this morning at seven chatting with his employee and his gf #he ABSOLUTELY could have taken them out #fucking prick #lucky i can clock in from my phone and my current employer is none the wiser #if he tries that shit with my new job in two weeks i will literally not be home by the time he calls #in fact i'm just gonna silence my phone. I will be thrilled to not have to think about him all day #will never forget the one time he was in the fucking mediteranian and had me put together the checks for his employees #'oh it'll take you like five minutes' #yeah that was my entire lunch break asshole. thanks. #the more i think about it the more pissed I am I'm still stuck in this fucking house #I need to secure that car before I fucking snap #dylawa rants #dylawa rambles

[syn0vial]

so tired i might puke. i hate being sick

#i also hate my dumbass body for being so fucking neurotic about naps #when i take a nap my body does not add the amount of time slept to my daily sleep total like it should #instead it assumes that the nap is an entirely new night's sleep and reacts accordingly #so if i take an hour-long nap i wake up feeling like i only got an hour night's sleep #in other words: even more exhausted than before #i already missed work on friday. i don't want to miss work tomorrow too 😔 but idk if i'll have the energy for 6+ hours of teaching #personal post #crumb post

So I’ve been thinking (a lot) about the cycle break reading of ORV as a re-read, and I noticed some things?

I think the whole regressor, returner, reincarnation thing is also an allegory for how people deal w/ trauma. I mean, they are the ‘three ways to survive’, after all

also- I think past, present, and future might fit that too? Past for the way people fell back on history to cope with the apocalypse, present for nirvana (? I’ll find something better later) and future for… idk, Anna Croft? Haven’t thought about it much, but still…

i KNEW i'd forgotten to mention smth in the list i'd made but no literally you get it, we get it i am shaking your hand.

it's 9am and i Haven't Slept (oops! teehee) so i don't have the brain capacity to go into detail about the How and Why of it all, but i wanted to answer to tell you that you hit the mark for regressor/returner/reincarnator

although i WILL say that past/present/future and how trauma affect our perception and reaction to these things is something very present with Every character in the series. tbf/tbc theres definitely more emphasis on future for anna croft, but she does still have all three

#may come back n add more detail tot his after i sleep if i remembert ot when i wake up asjdhgf #ky speaks #orv #ask

girl why am i so tired. i woke up less than 12 hours ago from 9+ hours of sleep AND i have a few hours before my adderall wears off. litcherally hello???

#this better be psychosomatic and resolve immediately after i leave school istg #<- guy who has been sleeping Way too much for like 6 years now #i do wonder if i had a night shift job and could go to bed at 8 am. would i sleep 8 hours like a normal person #i do think i sleep less (yet feel equally if not better rested) when i'm able to more closely align with my natural circadian rhythm #this is like. not the world's worst problem to have by any stretch of the imagination #but it's still annoying! #it also honestly has gotten kind of worse #so like fine i can accept needing 10 hours of sleep every day or else after 5 years of bitching and moaning #but do NOT add any more hours onto that or istg #also when i do get the sleep. please let me be alert and awake. wtf is this #also i say 10 bc i am too nervous to calculate how much it actually it #but frankly if i go to bed at midnight i am NOT waking up naturally at 10am lmao #i am bitching and moaning i am bitching and moaning #but also girl fr why am i falling asleep #my leg is doing the falling asleep leg twitch thing #if i take a nap will i wake up? or will the thing that literally always happens happen and i'll wake up in 12 hours

[pocketramblr]

So, I started reading your ua is a hell school tag and one of my first thoughts was "this is why I'm forever conflicted about Erased Potential" the thing is, like plenty of Dadzawa fics, at times this feels like All Might bashing but on the other hand this is the first and so far only BNHA fic I've found where adults actually *act* like adults in regards to the school management. If anyone else knows of other fics that scratch that itch I'd be happy to read them too but as it is I'm just stuck praying the author isn't unnecessarily mean to my wilted sunflower man :(

I know a few but I'm about to pass out, so I'm answering the ask now to see if any of my followers have their own recs and can say more that I can't think of rn

#I'll add more when i think of them after i wake up tomorrow #but if you think of any just add em to this post pls n thnx #fic find #anon #pocket talks to people

What if Diluc actually picked up a little Khaenri’ahn, enough to even discern things from context clues should he have enough key words, bc Kaeya kept slipping up and forgetting words in common and would instinctively replace them with Khaenri’ahn until he and Diluc figured out what he wanted to say. Then kept it up like a game bc it was plus Diluc was always super intrigued by Kaeya’s birth language up until Kae realized he was risking Compromising himself if Diluc or Crepus ever realizes Exactly what it was and abruptly stopped altogether-
