exactly!
Yeah I love him [he is the other half of my soul, he holds my heart in his hands, I would fight anyone like a feral raccoon for him, I want to hold him forever, our love was written in the stars, I couldn't live without him and I wasn't living until I met him, he means the world to me, he is far more beautiful than he knows, I would never choose anyone or anything over him, he is the love of my life]
also, a friendly reminder, the world we live in now consists of an active genocide.
of warcrimes being posted on twitter by the official account of israeli government.
of people looking at children, women and men being bombed, killed, starved and butchered and saying it is okay because of a single terrorist group, THAT ISRAEL CREATED.
of westerners saying to look away from the slaughter happening in gaza because your mental health is more important than thousands of lives.
of israeli politicians straight up using propaganda from nazi handbooks to dehumanise palestinians, calling them less than human, less than the rest of us, animals.
and what one palestinian man posted on his social media hit me more than anything: “if we actually were animals, people would care.”
They’ve cut Gaza off from the world
Please note that there are actually more humanity crisis situations happening about the world.
Asexual people can read smut
Asexual people can have sex.
Men can be asexual
Straight people are asexual.
Aroace people can be all of the above.
Not all Aromantic people are also ace.
You can be sex repulsed and still make sex jokes.
I DIDN'T FIND MY LOVE BUT I STILL MADE IT THIS FAR WITHOUT IT
Israel has bombed—and completely demolished—the Great Omari Mosque in Gaza, which is the second oldest mosque in Palestine. There was no purpose to bombing it. There was no advantage to targeting it. Israel simply destroyed it to make a statement: that Palestinian religion and culture not only mean nothing to them, but are something they’re actively working on wiping out. This was one of Palestine’s most sacred cultural sites. Now it’ll forever serve as proof of the horrifying death and destruction the world has allowed to befall Palestine.
