24 years ago, I remember hearing this news and feeling a loss unlike I have felt before. It hurts no less today.
But it also reminds me; as long as there is oppression, every act of humanity - big or small - can make the world a better place. And it is our duty to make sure it does.

Israel always claims that they have a right to defend themselves that they have a right to exist but on the other hand they act as if millions of Palestinian civilians don't have a right to exist 👿

I know I’ve mentioned it before - but there is so often a coyness about talking about the predators close to the monarchy - Mountbatten, Laurens Van Der Post, Peter Ball, Jimmy Savile - such danger in deference

The palace's decision to strip Andrew of his titles in direct response to Virginia's posthumous testimony is a long-overdue and heartbreakingly unfair confirmation that those in power believe her story to be credible. They always did. Fuck them for waiting until she was dead to say so. It gives a whole new meaning to "don't ever trust a woman until she's dead and buried." Thinking of her family and all survivors today

>>'Israeli’ warplanes struck displaced families near al-Zaytoun as they searched for shelter. This is the routine violence of a settler-colonial project that continues to destroy Palestinian land and life, even while the world repeats the word “ceasefire.”'<<

This morning, I was hit in the face by a baton.

I’m going to have a pretty gnarly bruise but we need to remember why this is happening: Trump and ICE are rounding up our neighbors, treating them as subhuman, and shipping them off to labor camps in foreign countries. It has to end.
