// Alright, throwing this out there before I sleep: now that I've done with my exam and I may have access to my laptop soon, I'd like to get back into the swing of things and write with more people! Like this post (or reply) if you want me to make a mental note to check out your blog / reach out to you about RPing!

Also, for reference, since this seems to be a Hot Fandom Topic: I consider myself neither proship nor anti. My rules page is pretty up-to-date with who I will/won't interact with.

#mun post. #// I'll probably reblog later. #I'm not 'proship' or 'anti' I'm 'write/ship whatever as long as you address it tastefully & with the respect/gravity it deserves' #if you want to explore toxic dynamics then go for it. if you want to ship sto/via bc you think 'its hot' then god bless you but I don't wan #any of that near me. I also don't think that tumblr users are viable largescale platforms for promoting agitprop but #I am also not white enough to think that media/fiction has no influence on public perceptions of stuff. I have a nuanced take you see #I'm not going to harass people who ship weird shit (especially if they tag it/warn properly) and I don't think they should like go to jail #over it but I do think it's weird as fuck and the vibes are fucked and I don't want it anywhere near me. And it's my God given right as a m #American to feel that way! Ya feel. Anyway. #(This is not an invitation to argue with me! Any arguing with me requires a $50 donation to the Lebanese Red Cross.)

Thinking about Jason making and freezing batches of kibbeh for him and Dick. So they can have an easy to prepare and to eat meals anytime they don't feel like cooking or ordering take out

Also kibbeh has so many variations! With some simple carb and a bit a veggies or leafy greens you have got yourself an easily healthy and nutritious meal!!

#in my country we pronounce it as kubbah #the can be related to my middle eastern jaydick au #but right now i am talking about american vigilantes jaydick #جايسن نادر كلشي يطلع من ايده!! #it can be fried boiled and even grilled!! #the stuffing can be anything you like but it's usually some kind of meat and some people like to add a bit of nuts and raisins to it! #make it so delicious if you have prover taste buds #also theirs is a filling with meat walnuts raisins and dried cranberries all tied up togather with pomegranate molasses so so delicious #that's used in the syrian/lebanese variation i believe #house husband jason things !!!!! #jaydick #fem!jaydick

When there is no other beginning but the broken middle of things, we find ourselves in a kind of limbo, in empty towers, following branching hallways, whispering to the walls. Searching for a chance to find others, to build sense out of similarity and affiliation.

We had to do a diversity exercise at work today and the (white) proctor asked all the teachers if we knew anyone who felt like they belonged to two groups… except the entire room was female teachers of color it felt so fucking stupid

#I also talked about my experience as a levant American lesbian in diaspora and how I felt so torn #identifying a certain way where Arabic is still foreign to me and I’ve never been to Lebanon #but the people on the news being bombed look like my mother and everyone keeps mispronouncing names of places that I’ve known since I was #a child #and how I don’t feel Lebanese enough to say anything meaningful but just enough to hurt deeply and personally #especially when people use ‘they hate gay people’ as a gotcha knowing love from my mother and my grandmother #and how I feel torn #and she nodded sagely and said her husband’s family moved to the Middle East when he was younger and even though he’s white he feels like #it’s his home #so he feels torn because he understands both sides #and I felt like walking out of the meeting right there
