Do you know any good places for Farsi language learning?
Hello, sorry for the late reply!
I have compiled a lot of resources for Farsi in my folder (I also have added more materials for Dari and Tajik for those who are interested in those varieties).
When it comes to other resources there is Persian Language Online, Easy Persian, Loecsen, Learn Persian, Persianpod101 and LingoHut.
I don't currently learn Persian (but I am interested in it) so I can't vouch for the quality of these resources. If anyone has anything to add please do so!

taking off a mask to reveal what lies beneath as a romantic gesture is overdone, and besides i want to see the romantic or even platonic potential of protecting someone's identity beneath the mask, without any expectation of ever being allowed to see what's under it. picking it up and holding it gently to their face when it's knocked off and they're in danger of being exposed, without trying to catch a glimpse of what they "really" look like under there. throwing yourself in front of them to hide them from view while they put themselves back together without taking advantage or looking back to see what you're protecting. learning to read them by body language, tone of voice, and behaviour so well that you never need to see their face to feel like you know and understand them.

"queer platonic relationship" is da coolest concept w da lamest name by far it needs a revamp... in romanian fairytales when 2/3/etc ppl decide 2 live together & look after each other their whole lives jts called a "brotherhood of the cross" & i promise taht sounds cool af in da original language but zadly in english it sounds like jts a monastery or mayber a racist metal band... still sounds cooler than queer platonic relationship tho but tahts a very low bar..

congress also sat on its hands for 7 months, preventing aid from reaching ukraine, causing innocent civilians to die under russian bombs and artillery, quite possibly throwing the whole war into russia's favor because republicans and putin are berries plucked from the same field; that aid instead reached israel almost immediately, causing innocent civilians to die under israeli-american bombs and artillery. then those same people show up to columbia uninvited and try to call the national guard on students while looking them in the eyes

It’s really heartening how much people on this site came together to help Ahmed @90-ghost. He’s in Egypt now with his younger brother waiting on his mom and older brother to join them. The issue now is living expenses. Life is extremely difficult for displaced people, and the future is uncertain. If you’ve ever wondered how you can help a Palestinian displaced by the genocide, here’s one way to do so.
