im noticing that for a lot of americans “free palestine” has been an ideological motto and symbol rather than them actually believing in their heart that freedom is attainable and necessary

Once you realize that Wishbone's voice sounds like a slightly higher pitched Dave Foley...you will never, ever be able to unhear it.

sonic the hedgehog is a series that is fundamentally about love and freedom. about not being held down by what others think of you. of learning to love and accept and be proud of who you are; to be unashamedly yourself in a world that's always against you. never give up, no matter how many times you're knocked down. let go of past grievances, of past hatred - open your heart to those who are different from you, accept them. don't spend your time worrying - take every moment as it comes. dont dwell on past mistakes - live life in the present. love yourself. love your friends, cherish your family that you have, be that blood-related or otherwise. love and take care of the natural world around you. no matter the force that tries to oppress you, you dont fall in line. you dont take it lying down. you have the freedom to make your own choices, to pursue the things that make you happy, no matter what others might think, or tell you. you shine through, and you keep love in your heart, and spread it wherever you go, because you can make a difference, you can be a light in someones life, no matter how small.

be positive. be you. believe in yourself.

that is sonic the hedgehog to me.

The student protests for Palestine have been an amazing show of solidarity and support and seeing thr way that so many young people are willing to stand up for their values is admirable when so many others stay silent. But this is all to say that we are entering a pattern of glorifying these white “martyrs” from the global west to put all of this effort and resources and media coverage into instead of the actual cause they are fighting for.

I saw the same thing happen with Aaron Bushnell, when his self immolation was being talked about more than the actual genocide in Gaza (which went against everything he said he was self immolating for in the first place).

And again this happened with the prisoner from the US who worked 136 hours just to be able to donate his $17 check to Palestine aid efforts. In response to this, people wanted to help him and ended up raising over $100,000 in a gofundme for him. This feels almost satirical, as every gofundme to help Gazans evacuate Palestine and get to safety has a goal of less than $100,000 and most of them are not even close to reaching it.

And now, there are more and more posts on how to get aid to the college student encampments, and the “urgency” of getting enough bail funds for the students who have been arrested during them. Talking about Palestine itself and getting resources to Palestine has almost been put on the back burner in favour of making all Palestine related news about college students in the United States.

It think it is valuable to recognise the selflessness and importance of these protests, and getting these students resources but what is MORE important, and what these people are truly fighting for, and protesting, and make a statement about is PALESTINE. We have unsurprisingly reached the point where there are people who care much more about the white people fighting for the cause from the comfort of living in the global west than they care about the Palestinians undergoing a genocide in Gaza. It’s become almost blatant racism, the way people begin to drop everything the second a white/usamerican person does something in regards to helping Palestine, but will not put the same effort into a Palestinian IN Gaza who is telling their story or asking for help. I respect anyone who has done absolutely anything to help Palestine, but I hope people are starting to see the pattern of how the media gravitates towards the “white saviour/perfect martyr” instead of the first hand accounts coming from those in Gaza.

Anyway FIND A GOFUNDME AND DONATE TO HELP FAMILIES IN GAZA ESCAPE GENOCIDE

platforming palestinian joy is just as important as sharing the suffering they're enduring during this genocide. despite continued displacement and bombardment, you cannot steal their joy and spirit. happy birthday to this sweet baby 🖤🇵🇸 may they grow up to see a free palestine

The soul eater explanation of “yeah the grim reaper actually DID look like the typical scary grim reaper stereotype at one point however he started working with kids and decided the goofy voice and appearance was less likely to scare them” is so funny tbh he threw away his pride so he could raise the enrollment numbers at his child soldier school. & this is his legacy forever now because kid modeled his own grim reaper fit after the child friendly version of lord death.
