unconsequential

Sounding more and more like Israelis every day

I am sorry but the clear rain slickers are killing me

Yes. Marked by opulence and a distracted upper class, depending on foreign born nationals and the impoverished to defend them from the mob. A military class they eventually spit on and denied access to anything “Roman” which wasn’t a great incentive for you know, defending them from their own disgruntled citizens or enemies at their door. They cared more about their money and orgies and pedophelia than they did at maintaining the cogs of Empire of which their lifestyle depended. Bread and circuses and a whole lot of arrogant prejudice.

Funny how Palestinians “die in detention” and Israelis “are killed in captivity”

So no excuses anymore. You got your POWs back. Any aggression on the people of Gaza is just for your bloodlust (as it has been this whole time). No more hiding their genocidal psychopathic behavior behind false pretenses.

Charge them. If the court wants to be wormy fine. Charge them. Make the courts confess their two-faced practices. Bring up the charges, make them show their bare behinds to the world, publicize far and wide. Talk about it. Make some noise.

They won’t. They’re still talking like it’s business as usual for voting. And even if some of them figure it out, they’re very unwilling to do anything that would inconvenience their lives such as a mass strike.

Most of white America is just mildly perturbed that their comedians are getting taken off the air and their healthcare might get worse. Beyond that they’re cool with the fascism part.

That being said, I hope and wish they’d prove me dead wrong.

It may take time and you may experience set backs but it is attainable. You can reach a place where you can trust yourself again, and don’t let anyone inside or outside of therapy discourage you from that end goal.

Broken things can be mended. Our brain chemistry can be rewired. You may need to rely on multiple methods and tools but two steps forward one step back is still progress.

Believe in yourself, be kind to yourself and don’t let anyone convince you you’re permanently broken. You have agency, you have free will, and you can succeed. Take what heals you and find what methods work for you. I always like the visual of “kitsungi”

“Kintsugi is the Japanese art of mending broken objects using gold or silver epoxy. The Japanese believe that when something has suffered damage and has a history, it becomes more beautiful.”

I suppose that both the cloves and shrimp have been traced to the same geographic area it stands to reason that this is indeed correct. It’s just so strange and the spices contamination isn’t as fully explained. Maybe if I saw a map the plume theory would make more sense. But at that rate it seems the whole island may be experiencing this issue which is very unfortunate.

Pressure is important. We are not out of the woods yet. Until trucks start flowing and hospitals are rebuilt and homes are restored and apartheid ended— Israel needs to be pressured to stay accountable.

I just wanted to wish you the best moving forward and hope you’re able to find the inner calm and space to breathe and reset that you need. There was a time once in my life I feared myself, I don’t feel that way anymore, people can heal. We can come back from dark places and I sincerely wish this for you. Best of luck.

And we think the people trained by Israel are going to not attack journalists? They’re trained to attack journalists just like Israelis.
