got accepted into both universities i applied to !!!! those 2-3 months of working on my grad school applications paid off

erik, you responded by victimblaming me for whatever mistreatment i experienced because i didn’t maintain good enough contact with you guys (which i did try to reconnect individually with some folks in spring-summer until i got disappointed by the events in july). this is in spite of the context i provided that i was severely depressed, still processing what happened in 2022, was grinding for my fourth year of university, and coping with some severe health issues and a death in my family. this is also in spite of the context of what happened in july and how i never received a response for 6 whole months. you insinuated that my disappointment came from insecure delusions, when ive outlined, including with the other party prior to our fallout, that the problems existed long before i left that old friend group.

your only response was to dismiss whatever explanation i had to offer and say “go to therapy” (which i have! for nearing a year actually). you prefaced your response to me by saying i needed to be admitted into a psych ward — hysteria as a way of dismissal.

the only thing i ever wanted was for people to listen to my side of the story, but barely anybody, including you, has even allowed me to speak. even with the promise of evidence. you even said that no context i provided it would even matter. i’m not even given a chance to speak.

by the way, 10 hours of jingling? really? this fallout happened a month ago. the most i’ve done is vent vaguely on my private story. tell that to the other party who decided to escalate by telling you and the rest of our old friend group a month later.

so forgive me that the very least i do would be to compile everything so i could have the truth prepared instead of scrambling for old screenshots and recollecting every event of the fallout, simply because the other party keeps on escalating/spreading a decontextualized version of events.

20 pages of recorded evidence, i sure wonder what i should do with it.

mfw because some people cannot stop vilifying me to our mutual connections a month after the fact i gotta write a 20 page document with 4k words 1.5 spaced with screenshots. sure ppl might not read it but at least ill have truth on hand, yeah

hi everyone, my dad and his siblings have been desperately trying to get my aunt and her whole family out of gaza. I’ve watched him have multiple breakdowns over seeing the conditions they’re living in. they haven’t seen each other in person in literal decades. my aunt’s home in gaza city was completely destroyed and her family have had to repeatedly flee from the devastation. they deserve a better life than this, her kids deserve a better future than this.

it costs an insane amount to get over the egyptian border. please, donate if you can or rb this, it would mean a lot. thank you

[pearlescentplums]

same goes for here

heads up since people got surprised last time! i am going to be privating my blog again after tomorrow. im probably not going to be drawing anything post-worthy in a while

[pearlescentplums]

what’s the point of staying true when other people get to decide the narrative about you without any evidence lol

[pearlescentplums]

clinging onto the principle of "they were so cruel to me yet i remained kind" SO HARD RN

[pearlescentplums]

i wonder what it is about me that people don’t take seriously.

the other day when i took a nap i had a prophetic dream about humans when overcame with despair would instantly have their smiles stretched from their faces as their teeth scattered into a disembodied memory of what it once was

[pearlescentplums]

i feel like once you start being around kids more violence against kid jokes just immediately stop being funny to you if not genuinely infuriating

hi everyone, if you’re looking to support gofundmes for palestinians that haven’t got a lot of traction, this is one of them. madleen and her family have lost everything after evacuating from gaza. at one point she and her kids (3 and 7 years old) had to be pulled out from under rubble. she is looking to rebuild their lives. as of february 26th, they’ve only reached 2k/70k. please rb and donate if you can!

48 million people in Sudan still can not contact their families across the diaspora. They're cut off from the internet, which includes their online banking services as well. Thousands of displaced Sudanese people were also recently turned away as asylum seekers:

This continues to be horrifying. Please keep talking about Sudan.

“But what about Hamas?” I grew up with this question whipped at my face every time I declared my people’s right to survive. “What about Hamas?” It didn’t matter if I’d just asked for clean water or the right to return to our stolen land. “What about Hamas?” they’d ask, holding my humanity hostage. Their smug smiles at this question, which they saw as a rhetorical coup. I gave them hours, pages of my words. I filled rooms with my hot breath, panting, “We are not terrorists—Hamas is a symptom of oppression—yes of course I condemn extremism—this is a struggle for human rights—Israel propped up Hamas for years—please look at our children—please, don’t you see our helpless elders?—please, if you don’t respect us as humans, could you spare some pity?”
