I don't know what to say, the Palestinians were celebrating, they were celebrating knowing that they no longer had to hear any bombs, that they wouldn't need to see the dead bodies of their relatives and that they would finally have peace after seven months of death and destruction. So much joy and elation, only for it to be torn to pieces by the settler colony state and its refusal to end the war. It is heartbreaking, soul-crushing. Tears and angers can't describe the devastation as the children will continue having to suffer; it can only be described as malevolent. But the Palestinians are a people of hope, they've always had it.

Zionism is an absolute plague, and I pray every day that this poisonous and genocidal ideology is destroyed. May the fires of Hell swallow all of those who enabled and supported this genocide.

seeing people having to write thinkpieces in defence of elia martell is crazy. yeahh guys i think the woman whos arranged marriage cheated on her and ran away causing a war which led to an invasion of the castle in which her infant children were killed in front of her before she was raped and murdered might not have been the villain in that situation. targaryen fan brain parasites

A Game of Thrones, Eddard IV

“Would the lord and lady like the use of a bedchamber?” asked Littlefinger. “I should warn you, Stark, we usually charge for that sort of thing around here.”

“A moment alone, that’s all I ask,” Catelyn said.

“Very well.” Littlefinger strolled to the door.

“Don’t be too long. It is past time the Hand and I returned to the castle, before our absence is noted.”
