Seeing articles and videos about “Israel” arming settlers reminds me of the stories my great grandpa told me about May 8th 1945. How France armed the settlers so they would help the colonial authorities kill Algerians. 45000 Algerians were killed in just a couple days and many more were jailed without proper trial.
The general who organized the massacre said to France “I got you 10 years of peace. But things need to change in Algeria, they failed only because the protests were not simultaneous. The calm is back only in surface, the gap between the two communities deepened. You cannot keep on using violence if you want to keep Algeria and your methods need to change.”
He was right (still a peace of shit cause dude organized the massacre of 45000 Algerians). France didn’t listen to him and 9 years and a half later on November 1st 1954 the Algerian war of liberation started with simultaneous attacks all over the North of Algeria. It started with 1000 men only and 8 years later Algeria was free of French colonial rule.
That’s why I’m convinced that Palestine will be free because Israel is repeating the same mistakes France did. My grandpa keeps telling me that he trust Palestinians to take back their land because that’s the natural order of things and because “Israel” reminds him so much of France. The methods, the lies, the propaganda. And just like Algerian women managed to show to the world what was truly happening and switched the public opinion, Palestinian journalists are showing to the world what’s happening. It cannot be ignored.
Pro Israel aholes reached the point where they have to disguise their protests as protest against antisemitism in order to gather any form of support from the public. Western medias already lost all credibility to the point where they are backtracking a bit. Politicians are backtracking slowly too. Because they are realizing that if they keep up the unconditional support they will fall with Israel (tbh I think they are all falling with Israel either way because whenever the Global South rise the West fall cause the West is unable to thrive without looting and oppressing the Global South.).
Palestine will be free in our lifetime Inch’Allah and we will all share pictures and videos of the liberation. Palestinians are going to rebuild their country and thrive. If Algeria kicked out colonizers after 132 years Palestine can do it because it’s a country of braves. Because nobody can stop a people who fight for liberation when the people are united.
You don't have to twist our arms to have us share our love of the basket star!
These deep-sea denizens are echinoderms, a group that includes sea stars, sea urchins, sand dollars, sea cucumbers, and kin. The brilliant basket stars boast a compact body and long branching arms. This mesmerizing mass of twisting and turning limbs are expertly adept at ensnaring prey that drifts by in the currents.
🎥: Thanks to our research partners @mbari_news for the deep-sea footage!

The gifs show, in order: Fang Duobing elbowing Di Feisheng away as he tries to choke Li Lianhua, Fand Duobing stopping the three of them as they walk and gesturing to Di Feisheng, Li Lianhua pouring tea for Di Feisheng and refusing to do so for Fang Duobing, Di Feisheng steadying Li Lianhua as he wears the wedding dress, Fang Duobing smelling his arm and scowling as Li Lianhua smells Di Feisheng's wound in the Lotus Tower, Fang Duobing pointing at Di Feisheng and Li Lianhua tapping his arm away, the three of them walking together as Li Lianhua looks at a map, both of them helping Li Lianhua sit up, the three of them standing all holding swords, and Fang Duobing and Di Feisheng on the beach, with Li Lianhua on the shore in a fur coat. /end ID]
Bat stars — the ultimate arm wrestling champions of the sea! 🌊💪
When these stars bump into each other, it's not just a friendly handshake, it's a 'gently intense' arm wrestling match! They become engaged in a slow-motion skirmish, striving to get the upper hand, er, arm. Who knew stars could be so competitive? 🌟
@devilrose if Thorbeth wants it, he can beat Acelta in arm wrestling because Acelta only have 30 strength XD
Oh, ah, yes, the "How to beat magic quest with no magic", we've all seen it.
So... About Martin's story XD I still hadn't brought Martin to the Priory at that time... and I met Tooth on shore. He told me to meet him at the bottom of the Bay. I didn't think much and I followed him.
I had the enchanted ring, so I cast water breathing on Martin before we went in the water. He did follow me, but stayed close to the surface. Couldn't blame him.
But! Tooth told me we need to stay down here with him, not only for "a full three hours", but also "do not wander off."
I said yes. Not a big deal. I can handle it, and I can even cast the spell for the both of us. Then I looked back. Martin was so far up.
I should re-cast the spell for Martin, but I wouldn't dare to drift too far from Tooth. Especially not too close to the surface. I chose an angle I can saw both Tooth and Martin. His spell did ran out, and he swam up and stayed up there, which is good.
At some point Tooth suddenly swam away, I followed immediately. Martin saw we're moving and followed again. Tooth only swam for a few meters, so we all stopped. Later Martin noticed we're still not done, so he swam up to breathe again. Good for him.
After three hours, Tooth decided "ok that's enough, bye". Then I passed the test, and not once did Martin pass out! Good jobs, team. After that, I cast Water Walking on both of us and we walk back to shore. See, Tooth? I'm very good at Alteration.
Come to think of it, I should've let Martin stay on land at the beginning. Sorry Martin ^^'
Martin, starts to think we're not gonna continue on to Weynon Priory. (side note, Martin's puffing cheeks is based on a meme I like. I just think the red cheeks are cute. Will reblog below)
