in the meantime: study, journal, read more books, sit in silence, listen to music, take walks, take the stairs, do more things alone, do more things with friends, take notice of the small wonders of the world, create a sacred space in your mind

I finally took the time to photograph my vintage dip pen nib collection, and I need to share with you all how wonderful and diverse their designs are.

These two are my favorite. Just look at them! One of them is named Gorille and the other Mephisto, but to me they're little pumpkins.

And of course you gotta love the Pinocchio nib. You get to write with the nose of a tiny guy! Just not something you get to do anymore.

At this point we repeat this literally every Saturday it feels like:

But 100 Palestinians killed in a single strike as they gathered to pray is exactly what your silence results in.

These massacres turn into the new "norm" of Israeli crimes.

The bar gets shifted.

The red lines erased and redrawn.

A new precedent is set.

Yes, your silence is killing more Palestinians but also understand that it is changing what is acceptable for you and your future.

🔴 🇬🇧 The Zionist Tommy Robinson, a Mossad agent, is responsible for the civil unrest in Britain. 

Although the killing of the children was not carried out by a Muslim or illegal immigrant, but by a British citizen of Rwandan origin. 

Tommy Robinson, who has infiltrated deeply among the conservative population in Britain and constantly spreads pro-Israel ideology, used this painful moment to turn anti-immigrant protests into racist and anti-Islam protests with the help of social networks. 

Tommy Robinson travels extensively and resides in Tel Aviv. 

After flooding Britain with illegal immigrants with its wars in the Middle East and North Africa, Israel will now cause a civil war.

In addition to Robinson, the British government, which is purely Zionist, constantly allows new illegal immigrants to enter the country and does not want to stop them.

All this is done in an organized and coordinated manner.

i feel like people are skimming over the uk riots in a way that makes me want to tear my hair out. muslims in the uk are in active danger. immigrants in the uk are in active danger. refugees in the uk are in active danger. people of colour in the uk are in active danger. asian communities in the uk are in active danger. black communities in the uk are in active danger.

there are massive far right riots throughout the country right now and people like fucking elon musk and nigel farage are inciting it and still have a platform to speak. people have used three young girls deaths, people's genuine grief in southport, to try and gain traction for their own racist bullshit and it's working.

a lot of refugee charities have been forced to close leaving many people without support, homes, funding, food, etc. if you aren't able to donate please consider sending a message via the conversation over borders campaign! it will send a hopeful, welcoming letter to a refugee in the uk. there is also a guide to staying safe here.

please do your own research and donate to refugee charities, anti-islamophobia charities, mosques who are trying to rebuild after being destroyed, counter protesters, here are some i've heard positive things about but the list is extensive; southport strong together (support for the southport victims and their families), emergency unity fund, southport mosque rebuilding, riot repair fund, middlesbrough vulnerable residents, nasir mosque rebuilding, hull help for refugees, bristol welcomes migrants,
