i am not from Palestine but i am from the middle east and i know so many people are experiencing emotional turmoil and most likely having thoughts of "this world is ugly/unlovable/unjust/unsavable/not worth fighting for/unforgivable" but i don't think that's the way to do this -
We are fighting for Palestine, and Palestian people are still surviving through this. Even if you 'admit defeat' it's not over until it truly is over- saying, let alone thinking that "we failed Palestine" is not right, because Palestine isn't past tense. and they won't be.
Palestine culture is beautiful, palestine lives are worth fighting for, Palestine life is still there, they are still here.
The fear and despair are weapons held against us all, the thought of "this world is ugly/unlovable/unjust/unsavable/not worth fighting for/unforgivable" is what those in power want us to believe that so that we give up ; but we can't. I don't believe any of us truly want to.
There is so much beautiful in this world, we must fight for it, it's what makes this world worth saving, worth loving, worth fighting for. Fight for it, please. it's not over until it truly is, and it's not over yet.
Fight for all that is beautiful in this world, it's worth fighting for.
Now, i don't think it'd be right to end this post without citing some posts about ways to help Palestine - so i will do that, and recommend some blogs who actively support Palestine, please center Palestine voices.

Got tagged by the lovely @tamburins
It's 99% accurate 🤣 only two things it got wrong: I respond immediately the second I see the message (otherwise I'll forget it)
And I'd never say "I might be wrong tho" 🤣 my deadly sin is Pride... that's not a sentence I'd say 😅
ANYWAY!!! Let me tag @sanjoongie @moccahobi @limjaeseven @potatomountain @arafilez
one thing i'm realizing is what is with brown tabby tom's with amber eyes who become leader and being shitty husbands (brambleclaw/star, raggedstar, tigerstar II, onestar kinda)

The cheerful Snivy grinned, "So what's your name? Mine is Fern! No no wait! Let me guess! Is it... Grumpy? Firey? Ms. Hothead? Uhh..." "Ember." the Fennekin gruffed, quickening her pace to match Ferns, "Aw! I was close enough though right? Ember's a pretty name!" "It is?" Ember tilted her head, "I mean, thanks, or whatever. Yours is nice too, I guess." ‧˚₊꒷꒦︶︶︶︶︶꒷꒦︶︶︶︶︶꒦꒷‧₊˚⊹

The year is 2050, and Pokemon Mystery Dungeon, now known as WOKEmon LIBERAL COMMUNE is being remade. It has remakes of all four games, Rescue Team is now **Rescue Theys**. Your partner will always be non binary and there are 63 gender options for your hero, though hero and partner are stigmatized terms, so now we have the social activist and the anti-racisim pal. Team Meanies is now Team LGBTQ Rights. Gengar is Gengay, Medicham is now Ru Paul, and Ekans is now Yranibnon. The meteor in the end of the game has been replaced with the capitalist party. **Explorers of Sky** is now Explorers of Activisim. The Guild is now the Liberal Party. Wigglytuff and Chatot are now a proud lesbian couple with Wigglytuff being a trans woman and Chatot being non-binary as it's too misogynistic to have only men in power. Wigglytuff is no longer the guild master but the Prime Minister of the Activists. Team Skull has been rebranded to Team Cis and represent the capitalist party. Skuntank is now Trump, Zubat is now Cishet, and Koffing is now White American. The other major change is to the future trio, Grovyle is now Wokevyle, Dusknoir is now Duskhernoir, and Celebi is now Celebisexual. **Gates to Infinity** also faces lots of changes, Paradise is now Pride 2050. Emolga is now Gayolga, Dunsparce is now Dunsparce, Virizion is Dykeion, Espeon is TWeon and Umbreon is CWeon. The Bittercold has been replaced with the Florida Governor. Dunsparce and Gayolga are a proud gay t4t couple. Dykeion and Keldeo- I mean Kelthey, stopped being friends after Kelthey triggered Dykeion by mentioning Harry Potter. Oh! I forgot to mention, but the fighting mechanics have now been replaced with debating mechanics, in which you debate the other Pokemon on the best way to stop climate change. Anyways, finally we have **Super Mystery Dungeon** called what else, but Super Woke Local Commune. Nuzleaf is now Nuzshe, and gives single mothers representation. The Expedition Society is now the Red Society (communisim) and the scariest part? This game doesn't come out in 2050. It's being written RIGHT NOW.
his ass ain’t even listening!!!
quick car doodle before i go to bed ig figured i’d share since i haven’t posted in a while
CHAT there's been this sprunki au floating in my head and i need to infodump
name is subject to change but for now i've dubbed it "murder gang au"
still ironing out some of the details, but the main jist of it is that at some point, black is defeated, and the only survivors are tunner (cuz i said so,) gray, fun bot, mr fun computer, jevin, pinki, wenda, brud, and to an extent: durple, simon, and mr sun. (oh, vinerias also out there but shhh they don't know that yet)
just about everyone is immediately hospitalized, leaving gray, jevin, and the robots to decide what to do with wenda, durple, and simon, as they're all responsible for the death or injuries of at least one person.
they ultimately decide it isn't safe to keep them around, and give them two days to finish anything they need to do, before they have to leave.
from there on out, the three would go on SILLY ADVENTURES!! traveling and surviving together, all while forming a silly sibling-like bond due to their shared trauma and mountain of guilt, hooray!
oh oh ALSO! simon is unable to see due to well... not having eyes, wenda can hear still, but due to her ears being shredded has difficulty hearing, and durples jaw unhinges whenever he opens his mouth, he's still able to make noises, but it's hard for him to communicate via words
see no evil hear no evil hear no evil and all that
as for think no evil, they all get to have a voice in their head telling them to do bad things ;3
