on twitter, a viral thread started where people around the world shared their translations of “If I must die”, the last work of Dr Refaat Alareer also known as "the voice of Gaza". A beloved poet, teacher and life-long activist for Palestine, he was recently assassinated along with members of his extended family by a targeted Israeli air strike. His loss leaves a hole in the heart of palestinians all over the world.

Below the cut, I’ll be posting the translations of his poem, with links to the original posts. Unfortunately, tumblr limits posts to a maximum of 30 images. I will update when I can.

#probably one of the most beautiful threads to ever grace twitter's rotten husk of a platform #i really earnestly almost cried #when people say the world stands with palestine #they mean they speak with palestine as well #israel murders palestinian poets to silence their voice. their culture. their lifeblood #in response the world amplifies his voice tenfold #but what a loss #what an unforgivable loss #i hope it is some consolation to those who loved refaat that his words are now immortalised in languages all over the world #that he has united so many people in their pursuit of palestinian freedom #please please please feel free to add your own translations onto the post in reblogs #i just havent seen anything about this thread on tumblr yet #im just the messenger #palestine will be free #the words of refaat alareer will be immortalised #and his students will carry on his legacy #ah but it is almost 5am and i havent slept #when i wake up i will add more #free palestine #israel #refaat alareer #rest in peace

Good morning, Sleepyhead.

[First] Prev <–-> Next

#poorly drawn mdzs #mdzs #wei wuxian #lan wangji #'WWX was asleep for 4 days' is an incorrect factoid.#The average WWX sleeps for 8 hours. The PD-MDZS WWX who was asleep for 40 comics and 4 months is an outlier.#We are back to present day! I have missed drawing them!#Ah...the contrast between how the flashback ended (cold and distrustful) to how wwx wakes up (warm and watched over)...#The gap between the past and present is very important. Not just in this story but in our lives too.#The past can still hurt and it doesn't just go away with time as some say. It is the power of realizing that things have changed.#We can't get the good back. The bad memories have concluded. Those live somewhere else now.#It is hard to realize that you have to live for today and tomorrow. The past is so loud.#For WWX it is realizing that despite the mistrust in the past - He really does have faith that LWJ will be there for him.#It is the reflection of knowing that you changed and will keep changing and that change is good and kind sometimes.#But more importantly...and this I really do mean with all my heart:#It will all end up okay in the end. Even after the worst day. The most painful losses. You will get through it.#What feels like a breaking point is truthfully just another step you have to take. You'll get through it even though it feels like the end.#There are wonderful things you have yet to see. Friends you have yet to meet.#Even if it hurts so badly...one day it just aches. Someday you'll go a few weeks not remembering that it ever hurt.#Oh and because my izutsumi comic revealed many people were in need of hearing this:#You are loved. Right now. You are so loved right now. We just forget to tell each other that.#Go tell the people you love that they matter to you. I'm assigning you homework!!! You are graded on completion.

The more I think about it the more unhinged it is that Peeta's arms were better than sleeping pills for Katniss

#that's awfully romantic for a story that's allegedly not at all about romance #suzanne really went off with that one #the way katniss grieves this loss in mj too #those nights meant so much to her #everlark #the hunger games

I'm listening to a lot of Maintenance Phase (bc I love it) and this comes up sometimes, so I'll just be sat here thinking about how common it is for little kids to grow up watching their moms and other women in their life jump from diet to diet. Just as ambient background noise in your childhood, the adults around you obsess over calories aloud, express guilt over eating enjoyable food, frame exercise as a form of punishment for eating, and so on.

#how crazy is that...#and no your mom or your aunt or sisters or whoever surely aren't thinking about this as modeling a type of behavior #but that's what happens #also particularly crazy for people I talk to where you're in the age group that also had The Biggest Loser airing on tv at the time LMAO #lots of stuff happening at once there huh. crazy #sergle.txt #also yes I am gendering this SPECIFICALLY not because EDs/weight stigma/eating disorders DON'T stretch across all genders #but because it WAS specifically almost always women doing this because the diet and weight loss industries specifically target women #and because we can all think of examples in our families or in those of our friends and ppl close to us #where one or all of the women will be taking part in this behavior and IN THE BACKGROUND. the men in the house usually aren't.#and that a lot of the time this isn't enforced on them either. or the mom will be cutting calories and the dad will be visibly making fun.#sometimes families with one or two people doing this diet shit will cause it to be The Whole House Goes On A Diet #but more often than not it's a splintered effort or just one person.

CHILDREN OF BHAAL

I adore the vibe of redeemed durge your sister killed your mind and took your place - it was the greatest gift she ever gave you

#orin the red #baldur's gate 3 #bg3 orin #the dark urge #cant stop thinking about orin #myart #durge vaye #still deciding what kind of c section scar to give vaye #went with a vertical scar for this one #the lore for vaye is that he got pretty far into his life as baahls chosen as far as milestones are concerned #became unholy assassin almost finished those plans to take over the world had a kid for sacrifice/back up bhaalspawn purposes ect #& was daddy's perfect little murder baby <3 until the lobotomy ofc #then only with memory loss was there was enough distance for him to actually face how fucked the whole situation #btw Orin did Vaye's top surgery c-section and lobotomy <3 #thats his whole medical team right there #when you wake up with no memory all you have is your body for evidence so i really leaned into that for vaye's scars #I gave him vash the stampede level scars lol #he wakes up knows 4 things: that hes been through metaphorical hell and survived that someone did a choppy job on his top surgery #that at one point he decided face + eye tattoos would be his thing and that hes had a child #Im debating whether or not Orin would outright kill the kid or if shed keep the kid around until theyre old enough to face her in a duel #Leaning towards the second #that means while vaye is wondering around faerun that kid is having arts and crafts time with auntie orin! (oh no oh no oh no)

do you consider your self made?

#my art #self portrait of sorts #been musing a lot on disability recently and how being relatively freshly unable to do Most Things has changed my perspective on things #for a long time growing up i was fixated on the idea of being An Impact On The World yknow? mainly the next Big Writer #(and that it would be sooo impressive that everyone would make my books bestsellers when i was only 12 because it was That Good)#and i mean. obviously that didnt work out as originally planned because i was 12 and learning. but I've felt a lot like #I've kind of built my sense of self on those big achievements. even if they were only big to me. and a lot of them #are now out of reach or very difficult to reach. and it's been a lot to. recontextualize #to take what ive been told my whole life and ignore it in favor of just being being enough.#things will happen as they happen. i havent earned anything by suffering but it hasnt ended the world either #im here doing what i Can do for as long as I'm able to do it. and thats all i need to be for now #just making sure that i Do do the things i can do rather than assume i can do them later #anyways. love you #cw:#top nudity #artistic nudity #the dreaded ambiguously presenting nipple #if you put any pro weight loss eating disorder shit on here ill kill you btw #my body is sexy because im in it and im still alive. not because its struggling to stay that way #lindwormposting

That other guy would fuck it up so that you made macaroons instead of macrons

They're approaching menacingly with a bag of shreaded coconut

now see that would be quite interesting, and definitely be making the most out of the use of time travel

also if someone goes that far, then they absolutely deserve the chance to ruin my macarons lol

#honestly they’d probably create an amazing new macaron-macaroon hybrid dessert and i’d be all for that #but it’s still be my dessert and i’d reserve the right to patent it…so go right ahead and ruin my macarons! lmaoo #i’ve made enough macarons in my life I could deal with the loss of these #ALSO-#fun fact- I once made macarons for almost 23 hours straight #I think I only took one or two breaks and only had one meal #I had to sit on a stool the last few hours because my legs were giving out #that is a legitimately true story #it was terrible #I forgot! I was also interviewed for a newspaper article during those 23 hours?? my boss kind of forced me to do it and the reporter late #*was late #but #she came in and distrusted my baking and took photos and delayed me even more lmao #ask #the hellsite answers #hellsite hall of fame curator’s bullshit

Something about Dani and Jamie, Bill and Frank, love stories cultivated in the heart of horror. Something about finding queer love, gay love, human and fallible and worth cupping hands around and protecting even in the darkest of times. Something about stumbling into your person when you least expect them, when your mind is fixed firmly on pain and survival, and letting their light open you up. Something about choosing to wake up every day and cherish this person, even when it’s hard, even when they’re being broken down right before your eyes. Something about saying “I am marrying you, not in the eyes of others, but in our hearts where it matters—legality be damned”.

Something about gay love being worth all the strawberries, all the moonflowers, all the persistence and the endings chosen on your own terms. Something about that hits me where it counts.

#the last of us #the last of us hbo #the last of us spoilers #the haunting of bly manor #dani x jamie #bill x frank #I’m out here having Feelings today lads #the soft warm heart at the center of a horrific story #all that tragedy. all that loss. all those things that should harden us—and these stories choose to give us kindness instead #right down to the parallel of protecting your person as best you can from things you can’t touch with your hands #it’s a kick in the teeth. I love. I love. I love.

never go into the notes of a post that asks people to consider why they hate specific animals so much. anyways if you think a specific animal should go extinct I will explode you 😁👍👍👍👍👍

#pig originals #IM SO TIRED OF THE 'oh i totally agree with this BUT'#ENOUGH!!! ENOUGH!!! DONT YOU HAVE ENOUGH HATRED IN YOUR HEART...#'kill them' 'we don't Need them in the environment' 'they are unnecessary' You Annoy Me And I Do Not Like You.#stop... i dont get it what makes people think we have the right to kill so many animals #why are people so gleefully discussing the nonexistence of certain bugs. you can be afraid of them whatever idgaf but LORD #stop suggesting specific insects need to die i will actually GET you!!!!!! STOP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!#you dont even gaf about the environment you dont do your research on trophic levels and you dont do your research on #how important every animal is. and how much of a loss each extinction is.#AND REGARDLESS OF THAT WHY SHOULD YOU GAF THOSE ARE LIVING BEINGS WHY DO THEY DESERVE LIFE LESS FOR BEING BORN THAT WAY #IM GOING TO KILL SOMEONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!#youre just using your discomfort with animals to justify all of them dying? what the fuck man.

SOMEbody failed his wisdom save to resist unlimited tadpole power, and that somebody is definitely my tav Mayhew. a WIP:

mindflayers are incredibly fun to draw fwiw, do recommend

#i don't usually do linework but it's super fun #the bg3 theme about loss of identity - often expressed through increasing monstrosity - is incredibly my jam #what if you can't make it through as the same person you began - literally? what if you save everyone and are made worse for it?#what if you're a liar and a cheat in a story where consequences are inevitable & inescapable? what if there are debts that always come due?#how much worse would you make yourself for love? for curiosity? for the sake of others who deserve better? for power?#mayhew's answer so far to all of those has been 'a lot worse' and consequences just came to call #bg3 #the emperor #bg3 emperor #mayhew #gnome tav #my art #me drawing: how buff can i make a tentacle. very buff? even buffer than that?

i think hardison would be in lost media recovery communities online but he’d also be trying his hardest to make all recordings of a certain country singer named "kenneth crane" become lost media, and feel really kinda bad about it

#alec hardison #leverage #wren speaks #leverageposting #a lot of lost media exists in random archives of tv studios or recording studios or whatever & well. he is uh… uniquely qualified to #‘liberate’ those pieces of media. either by hacking or by grifting & stealing etc.#i think he’d be emotional about the loss of art that people put lots of work into & which other people love and want to find #he has to prevent any copies of eliot’s singing from being publicly available tho bc it’s a major safety concern #oh and all the baseball games that roy harper played in. and that news report of eliot playing w dogs in san lorenzo #actually perhaps…. a lot of news programs in san lorenzo that featured the murdered first lady #i mean sophie is meant to be dead as of season 2.#and while shutting down eliot/kenneth crane fansites was mainly important while they were there bc location being given away #it’s also important that ppl can’t figure out who he’s working with now or the fact he’s definitely alive or that he’s working for a #good cause now etc etc. just makes him more vulnerable & there’s a lot of ppl who want him dead or want revenge

Regular reminder that sudden and severe weight loss is a pretty serious sign that something is very, very wrong

#weight #weight loss #brought to you by the realisation today that my hips are currently smaller than my fucking waist usually is #it’s summer and i’ve been walking the hill a lil more but damn that’s not fucking good #and before anyone even THINKS ‘i wish i had this problem’ i guarantee you do not #cuz it comes from 2 hour bathroom trips that are screamingly painful #and the arbitrary inability to eat literally anything #which often crops up right before i sit down to eat something #and i mean i can wait it out and eat late but it’s really goddamn annoying #and none of my goddamn clothes fit AGAIN i’m way out of even my smallest stuff #my broke ass is not buying new shit and if i make any cosplay to fit me now it’ll be way too small when i’m back in remission 😤#gotta get the goddamn meal replacement shakes again and see if i can process those #they are GROSS #gym bros are lying to you #they all suck #and i need to do em along with regular meals cuz i’m not gonna get enough from either #luckily i also have chronically low blood pressure so frenchfries are medicinal on both levels #this may also explain my resting heartrate being around 120bpm in my opinion #but no one’s ever really discussed it

its so hard to watch time pass when things like careers and assignments exist. what do you mean im supposed to take that seriously

#I have an assignment that was due a week ago and I really really dont want to do it. I have to but i dont want to #im probably making it worse because my brain has built a wall around it so now i can’t do literally anything else until thats done. but #because I don’t want to do it I’m just kinda stuck. turns out this is what they meant when they said emotional regulation is part of #exec dysfunction.. I’ll have a thought like if I get a little bit of it done now i can get it over with. I can just submit something #and then not even 5 minutes later itll be like ugh but I have to draw all the assets out. I have to write things and make spreads ugh #and its just flopping between those two things. i hate it when ppl are like well how much time do you need to work on one thing #because BOY id love to know too. I’d love to know exactly when my brain wants to cooperate with me and work around that but I cant #even my period can’t decide when it wants to punch me in the stomach. which is kinda funny in the grand scheme of things but still #its so weird im just lying on my bed thinking abt all this like damn.. the time will pass anyways no matter what I decide to do.. damn….#if I submit that assignment now and take the L I literally won’t die. it’ll just be a deduction on an assignment nobody will ask me about #I know this but I’m still stressing myself about it so my thoughts aren’t really connecting to my body. weird #maybe its because Im having a hard time looking forward to things. theres definitely a lot I should be living for but I don’t really feel #a strong attachment to it I guess? it’s been like this for a while with holidays and meeting with friends so I just don’t #I kinda figured its because im pretty passionless and its more like passing interest. but it’s not very fun when it feels like I’m going to #be living distraction to distraction for the next 70 years or so lol #idk it kind of feels like slowly bleeding out. which is funny because I actually did experience blood loss this week #had a 30 minute nosebleed and literally could not stand. also it felt like someone was pinching the back of my brain which was interesting #yapping #does this count as vent #vent #Ive just been making an oc carrd and contemplate changing my blog header for the past 3 days honestly
