Not-ur-average-hydroflask99 - 21 - They / Them

one of the weirdest experiences ive had being trans and out so far was when i went to the doctors about hrt and she walked me through the consent form (the one that tells you youre doing irreversible damage to your body and you're a freak) with a pen in her hand like crossing shit out and being like "this isn't true, this is actually completely false, this is totally an exaggeration" and it was stuff like "research on hrt is limited poor and speculative" or "hrt can increase risks of disease" or "testosterone makes you more violent and angry" like idk having it written in a way intended to make you feel like you're making a big mistake is one thing but the fact that the form has like literally proven false info in it and the doctor had to verbally be like sorry this isnt even true its just on there because society hates trans people. is wild

guys i actually beg of you to not let palestine become an unpleasant flashback, a transient tumblr trend, a hasbeen subject that just faded away. as an arab—and specifically iraqi—girl, i know what it feels like to have family displaced all over the world as a result of western imperialism. i know what it feels like to not be able to step foot into your homeland because it’s no longer safe. as an american iraqi, raised in the us and insulated from my roots, it wasn’t until last summer that i was able to visit iraq for the first time, and even then my family was worried for my safety—in my own blood country. although nothing like what palestinians are experiencing right now, it might be the tiniest semblance of what it feels like to watch your country disintegrate in front of you.

and this is a universal arab experience. i volunteer weekly at a refugee center that serves middle eastern refugees, and every day i see the longing in their eyes when they speak of where they hail from. it’s safe to say that we will be getting a wave of palestinian refugees very soon: just another generation of arabs who can’t inhabit their own country.

arab culture is so rich, so profound, so beautiful. i am tired of being told by the world—through literal genocide—that it doesn’t mean anything. please never let this be forgotten. free palestine. free palestine. free palestine.

you see how i don’t throw a fit when someone writes a fic i’m not interested in reading? very mindful, very considerate, very demure. i’m not like you other girls who go on anon to tell writers you don’t like what they’ve chosen to write about. i simply do not read it and move on. very thoughtful. very cutesy.

if there's one thing we can learn from this booping experience it's that we need to give people notes and interact with them for tumblr to be fun and thriving

recently, Israel sent down hellfire missiles near a hospital in Gaza, which are missiles that explode into blades that slam down and cut through anything in their way. (link)

There is a video of a man with his legs newly amputated, screaming in a pool of his own blood. I won’t share the video, because it made me vomit into a toilet, but either trust me it exists or go look for it yourselves.

There is another video of a young girl, crying silently after her legs were blown off in an explosion. She explains tonelessly to the camera man that she doesn’t want fake legs because they’ll just remind her of her real ones. She is 13. (link)

A hospital is told to evacuate and they do, all the while waving white flags in a show of surrender. The IDF shoot at them anyway. (link)

Meanwhile in Israel - they begin to enforce one of the most draconian anti-free-speech laws in history.

Israel also claims to be the “only democracy in the Middle East”.

Israel has bombed hospitals, fishing boats, schools, refugee camps, power sources, water tanks, evacuation routes. They have killed 80% of Palestinian journalists, they have killed 100 UN workers, they have murdered over 4,000 children in 34 days. Because of the lack of food and water, Palestinians have begun to die from starvation, cholera.

If you still support Israel after all this, I believe you’re completely lost. Utterly without any humanity. Nothing could ever excuse this.

In Australia, there is an ongoing list of protests planned, as well as a permanent camp out being set up in Naarm/Melbourne to block Israeli transport company ZIM from shopping weapons. Congressional staffers in the US are finally being gotten through to - in spite of their rampant greed and long-suffering inhumanity, even they can recognise when their phones won't stop ringing with people saying flat out they'll never vote for them again.

really interesting to see the chapter in its context. Let’s chat

AFO here is trying to dismiss Katsuki completely as nothing, everything he does meaningless -yet he says something really interesting in my opinion. He is basically in denial about him lol, so its relevant everything he claims is not happening: "there's no value" there is value, "there's no meaning" there's a meaning, "there's no connection", there's is a connecting force.

He is getting more and more angry because is happening what happened so long ago; not because he just looks like him, but because this person who seems to never stop, fast and insane, is connected and close to OFA, to what seems to be the only way to get to his brother. AFO is afraid because he feels what he felt then -two people so connected, it pushes him away from what he wants.

That's the thing about this manga, emotions and people! Emotions are what move people, and what can be used in your own terms when accepting them; when feeling something strong between two people, or more, it can get out of control easily.

Now this one.

Im not a fan of how it sounded like in the leaks, when I believe there's more to it than meets the eye.

First of all previously he is talking pretty... insane tbh. He is hurting a lot and you can tell, delirious even I would say; for example, he says out loud he can't stop and that its going too fast, in a irregular tone too, which I find relevant to understand the whole context. Considering that happened before these phrases and that he looks like a gremlin in the panel he is thinking this, with AFO being like "wtf is wrong with him" as one of the main focuses, I think this is showing how he feels like he can even surpass him, yes -but he also wonders why. Its not clear what the "why" is as far as I know (some leakers and translators assume this is about "why would I think about not catching up to you when I could surpass you", but not really obvious if the context doesnt give other option or if they interpret it that way), so I might give my thoughts about it:

"I wonder why? I feel like I can surpass [you] now" as in "I wonder, why I feel this way now". I get that it doesnt say directly "why I feel I can surpass you", but while reading it I just got this understanding still. Him wondering why before he felt he couldn't even get close to him, and why now he feels he could even go beyond him.

Because he is here.

When Deku was gone he gave his best, nobody can take that away from him no matter what, but he also was more emotional, vulnerable in that way, talking to Deku when he wasn't even there; he was sure he would die, and he accepted it because he needed to win this, because that's what he should do. Now? He is not that willing, he'll come back from the death in order to do what he always does: win.

That's the thing guys...! He didn't feel like a winner when Izuku was gone and he fought "alone" against shigafo, he was trying to buy time for the rest -putting his needs last, just like him.

Izuku is here now, and he feels like himself again; yes he incorporates stuff that he shares with Deku, but wow he really couldn't smile like that before. He was willing to die in the fight, but he didnt feel like he could ever win it, and now? Everything has changed, because his motivation and hero is there, giving his all.

It feels familiar, comforting even in the worst physical condition -he just can laugh about it. He is losing control and it hurts and its crazy but fuck he feels like a winner, he feels like Kacchan.

He is himself, even a childish version because he feels like it; he died. Let's not forget he was dead, let's not forget he has so much to experience and how AFO seems so meaningless after that. The childish nickname being used here, the parents appearing and pointing out he is smiling like he always does... makes me think this can be true. Katsuki is his own person, full of depth, flaws and qualities like them all, but he can't be Kacchan without him, just as much as Izuku cant be Deku.

For him to be able to laugh, scream, provoke anger in such state, even make fun of The Villain, its like things feel more right with him; and they really do, don't they?

After all, Katsuki was able to stop being scared when he focused on Izuku before he died, and with him by his side Kacchan can be his crazy self all he wants.

Kacchan is a pretty calm person when Izuku isnt looking, and when he could, he just has to make the biggest show.
