thinking about the fact that in order to serve on the jury of a death penalty case you have to be willing to impose the death penalty (i.e. not be categorically opposed to it on principle) otherwise you'll be dismissed, so juries in death penalty cases tend to be disproportionately white and male and have been shown to be more likely to vote for conviction. just in general death penalty as a practice is horrific and barbaric but this specific part of it also just feels so insane to me

at last…another’s heartbeat

the silhouettes of their bond visible still at the last glow of the sun

they experience each other and the life of the night as it begins to stir

standing there in silence holding hands

no rush to go back inside

there is so much beauty and comfort in being in love and just being…

– amidst sounds of buzzing

chirps

crickets

the pleasant but irregular blowing of the wind

fireflies dancing in step with the light of the moon

how strange it is to become aware of another’s heartbeat but forget one’s own –

finally love.

vanity posting

I love this photo of me because I am so annoyed in it and I took it to communicate my befuddlement and annoyance with being misgendered at work by a 68 year old seeming woman who was visibly disturbed by my wicked transexual form. Its just me in what I wore to work like everyday.

why is my figure insane in it. Ig it's the edge of the bed sitting favored by online sex workers and the sleep deprived proletariat. But it's ridiculous. Even that shirt did not look so good on me in any other instance

Assotto Saint, "Why I Write"

I feel like paintball guns are totally underutilized as a tool for graffiti but this might be because one of the worst things you can do if you want to commit a crime is to outwardly appear as if you are about to commit a much more severe crime. maybe if you used a sling you could do it. Like David and Goliath style. But that would take forever

Most of you were either not born or old enough to remember the 2006 Israeli war on Lebanon and the scale of the terror Israel inflicted. In 2006, Israel killed about 1,200 in Lebanon in 34 days which was the whole duration of the aggression. Yet, today alone, Israel killed close to 300 in Lebanon. This intensification is the direct result of the way Israel faced absolutely no consequences for its unprecedented violence in Gaza for a whole year.

everyone knows that space is very very cold, and the sun is very very hot. so i assume there's a bit of space kind of near the sun which is just right. balmy space
