OTP: people will say we're in love
Why I ship it |Well, I explained most of my reasons in this post, but I’ll run through some of the basics and try not to ramble. (“Let me explain…no, there is too much. Let me sum up.”)
Hannibal and Clarice need each other. They both have holes to fill in their lives, and chortle all you want about Starling’s “Electra complex,” but you know what? She still needs him. She doesn’t need a FATHER, she just needs SOMEONE. Hannibal is her someone, and she is his - she is his Mischa, if you will.
Hannibal heals Clarice. She had this deep resentment that even she wasn’t willing to face in terms of her father and his death, and ultimately, he frees her from that. He opens new doors for her. I don’t think he changes her so much as helps her grow and learn - always good things.
Hannibal is one of the only men in Clarice’s life who does not simply WANT her. I’m sure he finds her quite beautiful, but he has bigger concerns than her physical appearance. He doesn’t lust after her in the way that Krendler does. He wants to get inside her head, and he likes what he finds there. He respects her.
Clarice chooses Hannibal. She dreamt about him, cried over him, found him impossible to forget, and finally, she proved she was a match for him - “Why isn’t there a place for her in you?” She had the freedom to walk away, but she stayed.
Hannibal and Clarice save each other’s lives, but Clarice is never a “damsel in distress”; she can kick ass, and Hannibal only steps in when he must. What’s more, she is also totally capable of saving HIM. Literally.
Also because…
“Good-bye, Clarice. Will you let me know if ever the lambs stop screaming?” "Yes. Yes. Yes, I’ll tell you.“ “Do you promise?” "Yes.“ She reached across the barrier and took it. For an instant the tip of her forefinger touched Dr. Lecter’s. The touch crackled in his eyes.
"People will say we’re in love.”
“Orion is above the horizon now…I expect you can see it too. Some of our stars are the same. Clarice.”
“You are a warrior, Clarice.”
“Did you ever wonder, Clarice, why the Philistines don’t understand you? It’s because you’re the answer to Samson’s riddle: You are the honey in the lion.”
Should time reverse and teacups come together, a place could be made for Mischa in the world. The worthiest place that Dr. Lecter knew: Starling’s place.
“Between iron and silver. I think that is appropriate for you.”
“If I saw you every day, forever, I’d remember this time.”
“Hannibal Lecter, did your mother feed you at her breast?” … “You won’t have to give up this one.”
And a thousand other quotes, but I don’t want to go overboard.
I hope this all makes sense and isn’t rambling. It’s not all of the reasons, but I don’t know if I can properly articulate them all. They might be better said in the post I linked above.
Karl Marx really hold onto his principles until he died :) i would even panick if i was him.
history + last words
Bener.. tapi lebih sebel lagi sama kata-kata "jaman saya dulu tuh lebih sulit dan blabla,"
Capek tapi ketika ingin rehat tak bisa, mungkin itu yang mengubah banyak orang. Yang dulunya penuh senyum dan energi, menjadi lesu dan mudah marah.
Keinginannya sederhana: istirahat dari segala beban sejenak saja. Tapi kehidupan yang berat membuat ia tak bisa melepas sedetikpun beban yang menumpuk di punggung dan mengernyitkan urat kepala.
Orang-orang kaya gitu ga butuh motivasi. Mereka udah muntah sama kata-kata bijak. Mereka cuma butuh waktu untuk berteriak sekeras-kerasnya dan menangis sekencang-kencangnya; lalu melanjutkan hidup yang mereka sadari makin bertambah hari makinlah bertambah berat.
Is there anything I can do to help Palestinians besides call my representatives and beg them to stop killing people?
This is a great question. There are a few things you can do—just off the top of my head:
BDS (Boycott, Divest, Sanction) https://bdsmovement.net/
Direct Action https://www.palestineaction.org/
Urge your University/School/Organization to put out a statement denouncing Israel
Organize a Protest/Participate in a local one
You might already be doing this but while calling your reps, tell them that as a voter, you're unwilling to support them in the upcoming election unless they urge the White House to take a stand against Israel and stop funding them
Share art/writing/films around Palestinian culture
If you're part of a union, ask them what they're doing to urge their industry leaders to take a stand against Israel + pressure the White House OR urge them to start a strike/walkout/etc if they're not doing anything already
Talk with your friends IRL about Palestine, whether in an activist capacity or watching a movie or literally anything
Reach out to a mosque to see if you can help them with anything
See if your city/state council has put out a statement in support of Gazans. If not, try to push them to do so.
Donate to Palestine Legal or Direct Action if you have some money to spare
KEEP TALKING ON SOCIAL MEDIA!!!!!!!! PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!
I know some of these don't feel like they have as big of an impact on helping Palestinians, but we do need to make an effort not to forget their humanity in the face of continued erasure and the media's sensationalist rhetoric.
Talking on social media and posting—while not seeming like a lot—does SO much. I know in USAmerica, it's like yelling into a void, but political analysts are saying that most of the "Global South" has completely lost any amount of goodwill it may have had the past few years. Hopefully, countries will start to put sanctions and embargoes en masse on the US and Israel soon.
Our goals here are BOTH short-term and long-term. We hope for the life and liberation of the Palestinian people, so anything that you can think of might help at some point in the future is encouraged to at least try.
If anyone else has any more ideas, feel free to reblog and add on. Thank you for asking, and here is to a liberated Palestine where Palestinians can live and thrive without fear.
