seeing a video of idf soldiers peeing on a dead body and then kicking it & you want me to think these people are “in danger and fearing for their lives”. like they’re spawns of satan himself with the crimes they’re committing and i hope every time they close their eyes to sleep, they’re haunted by the lives they have taken…i hope each generation of their families don’t know peace until they all wither and croak.
from the river to the sea palestine will be free!!!

Ryuji having the worst bi crisis of his fucking life bc his mom just had to fucking ask “oh, whats this young ladys name?” when he showed her a picture of Akira petting Morgana. Like okay yeah Akira is like objectively pretty, hes like the Classic Delicate Pretty Boy just like Yusuke which is like whatever; straight dudes have eyes, and they know what women like to see. But now hes like. Seeing things he likes in girls IN Akira now and he cant make it Stop like its genuinely keeping him up at night 😭
Pretty boy used to be A Face that would come up in his mind when he thought of the term. There was no specifics in mind, just like. Pretty Boy. Pretty boy! You say that and theres like a Face Template that shows up in ur minds eye and hed just attribute that to any dude who was like Vaguely Pretty. But now its Akira 😭 and he finds himself cataloging things that Akira does that he KNOWS he finds cute when girls do it. The hairtuck behind the ears. The headtilt when he mishears a question. The Actually Pretty Doe Eyes. The breathy, nearly inaudible chuckle he does in place of a Real laugh (thats made better by the fact that its so hard to get him to laugh in the first place). He likes cute snacks. He blushes easily. Ryuji is sitting here like ‘theres no fucking way man. Like theres just no way. That shit makes NO sense (a lie)’ lying in bed in the middle of the night looking like this vvvv w his phone in his hands (looking at pictures of akira)
It drives him insane bc like he did Not see any of these things as like inherently girly or whatever. Like thats just akira thats just his bro! And he does OTHER weird shit that cancels all that shit out. Hes like a messy engineer/tinkerer, he rolls out of bed and whatever situation his hair is is everyones problem. He wears that AWFUL gym uniform and doesnt tweak it AT ALL?? He likes baseball?? hes got a whole binder of trading cards that he will show off if u show any moment of weakness. Like hes just Some Dude but also manages to be Some Girl at the same time and Ryuji is like thats not fair. Life sucked ass but at least it made sense before Akira stumbled into it 😭

hate to say it, but part of ending the stigma around sexual assault means not assuming every woman blames herself. yes, female socialization encourages it, but that doesn’t make it a given, and the goal of all of these campaigns is to eventually diminish the proportion of women who do blame themselves. it is entirely possible, and increasingly common, for women to experience sexual assault and not feel shame or guilt, which we should be happy about. but instead, there are only so many times you can hear “you know it’s not your fault, right?” before it sounds like “it was your fault”. and there’s only so many times you can hear “don’t blame yourself” before it sounds like “you should blame yourself”. because it feels good to say, doesn’t it? sure, you don’t believe she’s guilty, but you do believe she should feel guilty, so that you can disabuse her of the notion. just something to consider.

i was thinking about that taboo around menstruation and how fucking sick i am of it here u have headcanons of the chb boys actively trying to make it easier for the girls when they're on their period bc lmfao who the fuck is gonna stop me
the apollo cabin always gives free pads and tampons to whoever needs them. no matter the day. no matter the hour
percy recalls sally once told him exercise and movement helps w cramps, so whenever annabeth's on her period and they go to swim in the ocean, he makes calm waves just trying to soothe the pain
when piper's on her period leo makes a cup of infusion tea for her he learnt from his momma
thalia rarely visits camp but jason still keeps a kit of pads and tampons for her in their cabin's bathroom, just in case
will asked lou ellen from the hecate cabin to teach him some herbal infusions for his patients' and sisters' period cramps
he came back w plenty recipes of infusions after spending evenings w her
hazel, being freshly out from the 40's, was horrified when she first got hers
she woke up in a stain of blood on her pajamas and sheets in the middle of the night
nico got woken up by the muffled sound of his sis crying while aggressively cleaning her sheets
"...hazel?" "gods, nico! u scared me!" "why are u crying?"
when he tried to get close she rapidly covered the spot on the sheet w a pillow, and what was going on dawned on him
nico knocked on to the apollo cabin's door at 2am
a sleepy will opens up
"she got hers?" "yeah" "let me get u some"
nico comes back to cabin 13 w a little kit of pads w cute lilac flower design in his hands
he calmly got closer to her, hugged her and kissed her forehead
"i'm so sorry" "you've got nothing to be sorry about"
the next morning annabeth and piper calmly explained everything to her. warm hugs and cheek kisses included
no more disgust, no more discomfort, no more shame
the first time nico finally saw a pack of pads unapologetically just existing on hazel's night stand, he smiled
and left a little chocolate bar on her pillow
percy still bickers w clarisse. a lot
still that never stopped him from lending her a sweater to cover the back of her stained jeans when she needed it
leo knows piper has a irregular cycle so he always carries a bunch of tampons for piper in his bag whenever they go on long quests
"fuck i need a tampon" "got'cha"
grover learned to sew and started to make reusable pads
he made a pair for annabeth w little dagger designs on them
and then left a bunch in the apollo cabin, so there's a lovely bunch of handmade washable pads in the period kit for anyone to claim
bonus
percy often went to the store to get sally pads when he was younger
and also used to sterilize menstrual cups in the kitchen
so when estelle reached puberty boy already knew what to do
