If you're having trouble keeping up with what's going on in Palestine because of US news coverage of university protests, here are some articles you can read and a video you can watch:

While CNN & all the other mainstream media try to paint the university protests as "pro terrorism" (which they're not, they're literally anti-war protests.) Palestinians are being slaughtered by the minute.

Please don't stop speaking about Palestine.

Feeling spicy but the post is going around again so Im going to say this on main. Installing an extension to autogenerate fic comments is so stupid. Just leaving kudos is fine if you don't have anything to say. Why would I want to read a comment you put absolutely no thought into. At least type "cool fic I liked it" with your own hands or something.

Like not like anyone would know, necessarily, but the idea of it is so dumb to me. I genuinely don't understand the culture around AO3 comments being seen as a social expection of reading a fic and not like... something you do when you actually have something to say and want to interact with the author about it.

I hate the “open floor plan” that everyone is obsessed with in houses now. I want nooks and crannies and bizarre floor plans. I don’t need to be able to see what someone is doing on the other side of the house. I want places to hide and lurk and dwell in the shadows. I am the beast who awaits in the labyrinth

These 70s gay pulp novel covers have a serious aesthetic going on. These are like, a legitimate example of good cover design. Every one tells you what you're going to get inside, but also has common design elements that tie them all together as a series. And those common elements are surprisingly elegant. They could have put the title in big bold text at the top, but they decided to make the title understated and put it off to the side in vertical alignments with the series, number, and author.

Additional detail: The title typeface is Clarendon, for those with an obsessive interest in typefaces.

I stared at this for a while trying to parse it, because the only version of this rhyme I know is "boys go to jupiter get more stupider girls go to mars become rock stars"

i feel bad for bigender people, the commute between Jupiter and college has got to be rough
