cas is an angel and it's hard for his human friends to understand that. it's all right. if they understood their brains would cook in their skulls. if they understood they wouldn't be humans. sometimes castiel can taste jimmy novak somewhere in the synapses but he doesn't let it linger. castiel swipes paint made of churned red pottage and an indigo blue shell along those areas to smother jimmy novak. painting is a hobby that castiel picked up in cappadocia from a girl who had three toes on her left foot. she died crushed beneath a paving stone and castiel watched her eyes dim, or he felt her eyes dim because he didn't have a human shell then, he knew her eyes dimmed, he breathed her eyes dim, he licked her eyes dim. humans are extraordinarily fragile on so many axes. he once tasted the fluid pooling in dean's alveoli when dean aspirated animal blood on a hunt. it was one of the most erotic things cas has ever experienced. he has tucked that memory into one of the infinitessimal pockets sewn on the inside of his coat, his jimmy novak coat, his dingy fathomless coat of no colours. castiel does not have time to be lonely. he repeats the names of his friends and they sink into the chapped places on jimmy novak's lips and he speaks their names like proverbs, like rot, like high windows, like upper rooms, like silver snails, like melting blood. his human friends never know what it feels like for him. they would be dead if they could.

Yesterday Israel bombed Lebanon for reasons like "Hezb Allah are trying to get into this war and help Hamas".

Hours ago Egypt got bombed again but it wasn't by the borders this time no, they hit Taba, a city in Sinai Egypt, 5 were injured and damage was done to a residential building because of the "rocket".

This is where the American taxes go.

today my mother was telling me about the few years she lived in lebanon and how she was terrified by israeli airstrikes on power stations. it's been a quarter of a decade since she's lived there and she can describe to me in perfect detail the missiles, the shells, the sounds, the aftermath, the rubble, the blackouts... i can't even begin to imagine children having to witness this every day. god have mercy.

#she was pregnant with me at the time and when i ask her 'don't you wish you'd given birth in lebanon instead of going back?'#she always says no and now i know why. not that we're that different nowadays.

Okay, I'm done being subtle about this.

I keep mentioning in my tags and in a post recently that World War II was allowed to happen because Hitler started conquering Germany's neighbors.

The world didn't interfere at the time due to 1) not wanting to start another war so soon after WWI, and 2) The Great Depression was nearing its end, but still happening.

Hitler's excuse at the time was to "reunite Germany" since part of the treaty of WWI was taking all of Germany's military away and splitting the country. They brought it to its knees as much as possible. So when Germany started taking that back, when they started rebuilding their army, it was illegal to do so because of the treaty, but no one stopped them.

Things only escalated to a full-on war when Hitler invaded Poland, after being threatened not to do so by several other countries. He did it anyway.

This is what we are currently seeing in Palestine right now.

What Israel is doing is, by international law, illegal. The people who have the power to stop them are not doing so. Israel is operating under an excuse ("self-defense," and religious zionists support them because they are "taking back the Holy land and fulfilling God's promise" or whatever), and Israel is now attacking Lebanon and Yemen.

They're just going to keep going.

I've been hesitant to call Israel a Nazi state due to the sheer amount of baggage that comes with that, but there is no denying it at this point. They're neo-nazi fascists who are following in their own oppressors footsteps, spreading hatred and violence to other parts of the world while no one in power stops them. Hell, even worse, this time around, the people in power are fucking funding it.

If you think this "war" won't affect you, think again.

If you ask me, looking back on history, if we don't put a stop to this in its tracks soon, then I fear this is only the beginning.

Know your history. Stand with Palestine. Ceasefire NOW.

So I haven’t been keep up with the war as much as I’d like to but recently I’ve heard that the IDF is moving out to combat Hezbollah even though rockets are still being launched into Israel and the hostages haven’t been returned. Is there some bigger play here or is the IDF retreating? Or do you just think this is a dumb military strategy?

The IDF is removing several battalions from Gaza because they're not needed there anymore. Most of gaza has been cleared already and their presence there makes no sense both from a security and a financial standpoint. There is going to be a war with hezbollah whether we like it or not because hezbollah has displaced around 160k israelis from the north by incessantly shelling cities and towns since the beginning of this war. These 160k ppl need to be returned home, they can't stay refugees forever, thus a maneuver against hazbollah is both necessary and imminent since diplomacy has failed (hezbollah signed UN resolution 1701 promising to stay away from the border post the 2006 war, and they broke said promise literally 2 minutes after they signed the damn agreement).

The rockets currently being fired from Gaza are fired from Khan Younis, which is where the IDF is still working. The frequency of rockets has dropped significantly, from heavy shelling every single day (in the beginning of the war) to a small barrage once a month, which says a lot about what has been done to Hamas' infrastructure.

The war with hezbollah is going to be extremely difficult from a defense standpoint because hezbollah possess a far greater rocket AND missile arsenal than hamas, including guided missiles. The damage to us civilians is going to be catastrophic, which is why the IDF is preparing way in advance and the govt is foolishly looking for diplomatic solutions where there are none. Regardless, hezbollah lost iirc over 500 fighters since October so I do wonder what's their plan long term.

#israel #palestine #hezbollah #inb4 dumb bitches go 'israel wants to conquer lebanon :(((('#no bestie israel wants to stop being shelled by lebanon

The destruction of the family diner in SPN's 14x13 Lebanon:

So many family & Dean symbols

Zachariah appears in front of a GARAGE (Al's Automobile Garage - Automobile Repairing). The light spotlights closed wooden doors, a callback to Castiel's arrival.

Papers and wrappers blow in the wind. There's a shopping cart with a big tire in it. Shopping is another family motif.

Cas joins him from the side of the shopping cart. (Combat isn't Zach's strong suit, I'm guessing, so he needs a specialist with him at all times.)

The next shot includes more CHECKERBOARDED patterned papers, a call-forward to the family unit/family diner. They're restaurant wrappers, strewn about like garbage, the specter of the trampling of the family diner.

Zachariah is disgusted by it, shaking his foot like it's dog poop.

"Earth. You're always stepping in something."

///

Dean's family diner

Zachariah and Cas enter the diner. The triangular neon sign "PSYCHIC" is lit up behind them, its eye peering at the audience. (I think it's a callback to Pamela, anther one of Dean's first contacts with Cas.)

This family diner is a pizza parlor called Big Little B&E Palace Pizza & Pasta. (Or something like that; probably just B&E.) To quote Shaggy from Scoobynatural, it's "like, a great Italian pizza place."

Also B&E -> like "breaking and entering."

///

The menu's got something for everyone:

The Classic Italian, The Greek, the Bacon Double Cheeseburger (Dean), Deluxe Hawaiian (Jack), Garden Veggie (Sam), Super Supreme.

Next to the menu, there's a bronze Roman warrior bust.

On the wall, two coats hang among the mass of coats, touching -- a gray one reminiscent of Dean's dead guy robe and something khaki-tan like Cas's.

///

Cut to Cas, directly positioned in front of the menu and next to the warrior bust. Cas will be shot in view of this threatening bust for much of this scene.

Zach orders Cas to get ready to murder everyone. The lights above the cashier counter burst. We get a shot of Cas powering up that bears some resemblance to the shot of Godstiel at the end of season 6.

When he powers up the windows of the family pizza diner light up, garnering the attention of Sam and Dean, who happen to be RIGHT OUTSIDE 528 B & E.

///

Shot of Cas powered up and ready to kill. The Roman soldier bust remains in the shot.

Enter Sam and Dean.

When Dean calls for Cas, the bust drops from the shot, but only for a second. Instead, we see more of the family diner menu. However, when Dean pleads, "Cas, you know us!" Cas hardens.

"I don't know you." And suddenly, the bust is back in the shot.

Dean's expression is like whiplash. Ow.

"Kill them."

Warrior--pizza--Cas. It's a mockery of Dean's family.

///

The fight & destruction of Dean's family diner

Cas attacks Dean first--throws him into two silver serving trays.

Cut to Zachariah choking Sam...in front of sailboats from Italy, Lago di Garda. (Famously, Lake Garda has something for everyone with its colorful towns, majestic castles, ancient Roman ruins, sun-kissed beaches, vineyards, amusement parks, and historical sites.)

These paired sails bring to mind Mary & John. Or Dean & Cas.

Side note: Absolutely hilarious that Zach blames Sam for the disturbance. Dean is the one who made the wish.

///

Dean is on the defense, but whacking Cas with a silver platter is pretty much like hammering an unmovable wall. Cas just keeps coming. He backhands Dean face-first into a brick wall.

Side sidenote: I'm glad the boys' angel blades hadn't disappeared yet. A few minutes later and the timeline might've eaten them, leaving the boys defenseless.

Side side sidenote: Although Dean favors Cas with the blunt end of the angel blade, quickly getting disarmed in the process, Sam's not that nice. After dispatching Zach, he attacks Cas with the pointy end.

Cas punches Sam in the face...and then backhands Dean again. Sam comes for more, gets the vector of his blade blocked, and gets choked again.

Cas throws Sam into one of the family diner table, spilling the meal the three Lebanon friends had been enjoying. The destruction of the family meal. The tablecloth is the same checkerboard pattern than Zach trampled earlier.

Elbow to Dean's face. Dean gets thrown into the shelf of dishes. The glasses on the top shelf shatter. Both white mugs fall, too. Everything shatters, and Dean falls into the glass. The destruction of the metaphorical kitchen, the domestic space with coffee cups.

Smiling makes more sense to Dean than any of the long meaningful therapizing looks that Sam keeps giving him or, god help him, Bobby's schtick about how being a Hunter means not being a person. Dean still feels like a person, just a fucked-to-hell one who can't stop seeing the long line of his inadequacies straight out the door and on till sunrise. Frank might not know him but Frank knows ... something, about what it's like, about your biggest life loss coming at age twenty-six and the one-foot-in-front-of-the-otherness of everything that comes after.

Frank's also something new and a little odd but Dean doesn't mind odd when it comes with a never-ending parade of pet names that are rolled in that sour candy coating so they're just this side of cloying, a little sarcasm to take the sugar off. He's not into psychedelics much but with Frank he's curious about the old guy's bag of tricks, so he says fuck it one time and drops acid with the geezer. It's, predictably, odd; Frank spools on and on about his routine and all the steps he's employed to keep on truckin' and by the time he's giving Dean that shiatsu massage he'd mentioned, Dean's still curious so he leans into it.

Twelve minutes later he's not altogether sure if his tianshu meridian is any better for the way Frank's rolling his knuckles against Dean's stomach, but sixteen minutes after that, Frank's fucking him nicer than a lot of people do and Dean mumbles, "i'm the one paying you, y'know," and Frank stares at him with one hand cupped at the base of Dean's skull and says, "listen, poodle, at our level of transaction nothing's a one-way street so lie back and let me get my kicks," and that sounds reasonable enough so Dean sinks his hips back further in the cot and lets it all be easy, for once, easy as it gets for somebody like him. His head jostles a little in the cup of Frank's palm with each rolling thrust and Dean opens and closes his mouth and looks up at the ceiling and doesn't see Amy's face and her cat eyes, or Bobby's face and his sadness, or anything at all. Maybe fire, rolling in. Maybe not. "Mom," he says, experimentally, and Frank slows for a minute, then gently moves his hand from behind Dean's head and covers his eyes with it.

"Thank you," Dean rasps. Frank doesn't say anything. His thumb sweeps along Dean's forehead once, twice. Sweet one way and sour the other.

May 2 1986 -

Can’t believe Sam’s turning 3 and you’re not here again. Dean’s turning more and more into you by the day, last week he asked me how to make your favorite desert. Didn’t know how to tell him it was just that frozen tinned pound cake, closest to an MRE I could find, and tinned peaches. He doesn’t remember helping you dish it up, kid was too little. Mary, when he talks about you I nearly fall apart, listening to him forget more about ya every day. It kills me that Sammy isn’t gonna get to know you, his fierce mama bear.

Think I found more info about what killed you, your friend Ellen called me up about some weird baby snatchin. Told her that I’d head up and me and her fella will check it out. They seem like great people, you always had the best taste in friends. You’d like this, Mary. Ellen’s pregnant, somewhere around six months. Her little one and sammy’ll probably be friends. We talk about you all the time, how great it would be if you were still here.

I still keep some of those old notes you gave me, lookin at your handwriting feels nice. Dean’s last birthday, I copied the way you wrote his name exactly. Don’t think he liked it very much, he was quiet the whole night. You were always the one who knew what to do to make him feel better, he’s your kid through and through.

I’ll make sure to give Sam a birthday kiss from ya, you always cared so much about Dean getting one per birthday. I’m gonna find what got you, Mary. It’s the least I can do, since aint nothin bringing you back.

June 12th 1986 -

I’m another year older now and you’re not, Mary. Fucked up world we live in, you were supposed to get old right next to me. The baby thing Ellen brought up was a bust, went up to Elm Creek armed to the teeth, the boys back in Lawrence with Mike, and it was just people. People, stealin kids from each other. Fee l like if you were alive, the world wouldn’t be like this.

Didn’t even realize my birthday cam and went, just looked at the calender and saw it was gone by. 31 months since you died, and I think I feel 31 years older without you. Gotta keep goin though, find what got you and teach it a lesson, show it how much of a mistake that was. I owe you that much, Mary. I owe our boys that much. With that thing gone, I’ll be happy to join you in the dirt. Not a day before.

i was looking at your insta story and i'd like to thank you for reposting that judaism ≠ zionism ! i am so tired of the two being confused:/ this has even effected me (an openly jewish (american) *teenager*) in school via being bullied and asked if i hate palestinians, etc .. so i am very glad to see the message spread around by people with some form of platform on social media ❤️❤️

sorry thats happening anon :(

I feel like this is the first time some people have paid attention to politics this much (or at all), so they Think its helping to harass Jewish people or fast food workers they're boycotting, when its NOT helpful at all!

People need to remember and see the amount of Jewish people that have been protesting against Israel, protesting against the west's involvement, this entire time.

We stand WITH Jewish people, against Israel

insta story context:

#ask #and there are jewish palestiniens !#zionists are killing jewish/christian/muslim palestiniens. Even their OWN israeli hostages theyre bombing...#israel only cares abt colonizing. they will go after Syria and Lebanon too #hope i worded myself right @_@
