? Someone tried to self-immolate in midtown outside the Israeli consulate?
Self immolation is the most desperate act a protestor has (see: the Congolese man who burned himself alive as well as the environmental scientist from a year or so ago)

the thing about working as a housekeeper is that sometimes I will be called to clean a room that is in such a state that it gives me pause.
The thing about being a housekeeper at a Hospital is that it is not the things that would usually be concerning that leave me with questions.
Like if I go clean a room and it is just covered in blood, I’m not all “where did all this blood come from” that would be silly. It came from inside the patient and they were already in a hospital so they’re probably mostly fine hopefully.
In fact “Inside the patient” is where most of the potentially concerning stuff I have to deal with comes from. Vomit? That’s from inside the patient. Urine? Feces? Inside the patient baby. Needles full of unidentified drugs? That was supposed to go inside the patient but I guess they frogot.
But when I go to clean a hospital room and it is full of Sand… Did that come from inside the patient? I hope not. Why is there so much sand? Where did it come from? Was there some kind of terrible beach accident?
I have many questions and I’m scared of the answers.
this is such a delightful pair of tags
Patient happened to be under the effect of the pharaohs curse at the time
This year it will be the 75th anniversary of the creation of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
… 75 years…
The same amount of time as the illegal Israeli occupation of Palestine.
One of the most horrific ongoing human rights violations, started the the same year the Universal Declaration of Human Rights was created.
One that the world is trying to ignore and silence people from speaking about.
Israel is illegally occupying and killing Palestinians.
It is a genocide.
And it’s not just Palestinians.
Sudanese, Congolese, Armenian’s, Kashmiri, Tigrayans, Uyghurs, and many many others are undergoing their own genocides and denial of basic human rights.
And places like Israel, the UK, the US are complicit and funding them.
None of these tragedies occur in a vaccum.
Don’t let the world forget what’s going on.
Don’t let them brush these atrocities off as they celebrate this day.
On a day celebrating human rights, we need to discuss who is being denied there human rights.
for years i attended knight school in hopes of becoming a hero who rescues beautiful maidens from danger (wyrms, wolves etc). unfortunately due to Feminism the maidens have all started rescuing themselves thus rendering me obsolete
There appear to be fresh openings in the wyrm/wolf companion careers. Are you allergic to dogs, gold, or fine silks?
all three 😔
thou could'st cut out ye middle manne and become a maiden?
verily, i have tried this but was ryte terrible at it
Mayhaps thyne attempt be short lived. Think upon the chances of trying once more. Practice improves.
forsooth you sound just like my mother
Quite the query indeed. Ah, a thought has’t granted me illumination. Has’t thou ever considered ventures into the bandit trade. There be riches abound and beautiful maidens to woo with thy'n outlaw charm
an intriguing proposition! tell me, are maidens these days into “bad boys”? because i am bad. at many things.
Are you alright, honey? You’ve barely put your blorbo in situations
Okay but back when I could afford a therapy my psychiatrist asked if I had written any fanfiction or planned any out in my head, and I was “nah, not really.” And she nodded and looked down at her notes and was like “so how do you feel about possibly trying Zoloft?”
I started laughing and she was like “I know it sounds funny but it’s been six months without you engaging in your favorite hobby and that’s a sign the depression is getting to a point where we might why try some treatments with meds in addition to therapy.”
So like. yeah.
So, babe, ARE you okay? You’ve barely put your blorbo in situations
I’ve been skimming John Francis Daley’s (director on D&D: Honor Among Thieves) twitter and I continue to be so completely blown away by the movie’s commitment to practical effects and/or minimized CGI where feasible. I mean holy shit look at all this
Practical effects mean that the creators were largely unionized.
For context these were the preceeding tweets, and there are multiple news stories (mostly from Republicans throwing a tantrum over the NHL supporting trans people, which is why I’m not linking to the articles) about the trans draft. So it isn’t just an empty statement or an intern going rogue amidst twitters death rattle. This is like, a big deal
