when you send out your wedding invitations, they say to expect a twenty percent attrition rate.

what they don’t tell you is it’s not the twenty percent you think it will be. not the cousins you haven’t spoken to since you were both thirteen, not the old roommate living in a new country. it’s the friends who took long drives with you, who heard your most humiliating secrets, who shaped your music taste and your fashion sense and for fragile and overlapping periods of life were the closest friends you had in the world. the same girls whose weddings you attended not quite a decade ago, whose weddings you were in, whose weddings you made speeches at.

you would’ve moved heaven and earth to be there for them when they got married. you did. you took train after train to get to the bridal shower and then got back on a train that same day because you couldn’t afford to take the weekend off. you rubbed elbows with groomsmen, ghosts from your college days you’d never wanted to see again. you took your life into your hands carpooling with a Milanese priest; he told you the whole plot of Arrival on the highway. you bought pastel dresses as instructed and paid to have them tailored. you missed school and missed out on your own short vacations and never, ever got a plus one. but the curse of being the last single friend is they just didn’t have the opportunity to show up for you the way you showed up for them. you knew they would do the same for you, and when it’s your turn, they will.

except when your wedding does come around, seven years later, it’s still not quite your turn. because you can move heaven and earth to show up for your friends when you’re single and they’re the loves of your life. but by the time you’re ready to go to the altar their lives are already full of other loves—they have husbands and toddlers and babies, responsibilities and difficulties and balancing acts that you still can’t understand. they can’t drop everything to show up for you, because what they’d be dropping is infinitely more worthwhile than all the things you dropped.

you keep getting told to ignore the feeling that you’re falling behind, told there’s no mandatory timeline for when you should hit milestones. there might not be a timeline, but it feels like there is a time limit. once you pass the time limit you can still achieve things. but people won’t care the same way. they send you a sweet text congratulating you. then they send you their regrets, and say you’ll have to catch up when it all blows over.

in the end, your attrition rate is higher than twenty percent.

are you finding out who your friends are? you hope not.

good grief i am sick and tired of small dick jokes, body shaming doesn’t become feminist just because it’s against people with penises

It's hard having irrational fear. Because I already feel like I'm having a panic attack over something as little as talking. But when it comes to something actually considered scary to most? I'm dead. I saw a spider in my room an hour ago and had to hide on the bed while I frantically called my sister. (She trapped the spider and put it outside.) But I'm still not recovered. I'm still shaking. Paranoia and anxiety doesn't mix well and I'm pretty sure I'm going to burn my room down in fear that there are more in there.

I swear to god if anyone attempts a goncharov fan film i will personally put a gun to their head (a joke but i will be very vocally angry about it).

it’s missing the entire fun part of creating something out of nothing and having so many people add their own touch to it.

forgive me but im going to compare it to my main fandom: the marauders. its almost completely fanmade which is what makes it fun and interesting to be a part of but when you attempt to make a “canonized” version of it the magic doesn’t work anymore.

UN said: Gaza needs 70 years to be livable, at least 70% of the infrastructure is destroyed.. Gaza, the most beautiful city that I have ever seen in some before and after pictures that shows a little part of the destruction.

The first Palestinian athlete to participate in the Olympic games died on Wednesday at the Nuseirat refugee camp in Gaza as a result of kidney failure due to power outages and medical shortages as a result of the ongoing Israeli war and siege of the enclave.

Majed Abu Maraheel, who passed away at the age of 61, became the first athlete to be the flag bearer and represent Palestinians at the Olympic Games in Atlanta in 1996. Being a distance runner, he competed in the 10km race.

Since his breakthrough on the world stage, more than 20 Palestinian men and women have been able to compete at Olympic competitions.

"He was a Palestinian icon, and he will remain as such," his brother told Paltoday TV after the funeral.

"We tried to evacuate him to Egypt but then the Rafah crossing was closed (by Israel), and his condition kept deteriorating."

In his preparation for the Olympics, Abu Maraheel would often be seen on his daily runs from his home in Gaza to the Erez Crossing with Israel, which Israel closed in October after imposing a full blockade on the Strip.

Last month, it was reopened for the first time since then.

He would often have to pass through that crossing for his job as a day labourer in Israel. After participating in the Olympics, Abu Maraheel went on to become a coach for other Palestinian runners hoping to replicate his presence at the international competition.

Abu Maraheel's death highlights the grim fate of many Palestinians who are facing kidney failure in Gaza.

A report from the Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor in March found that there were between 1,000 to 1,500 patients in Gaza with kidney failure, and that they are facing a "slow death" because of "a lack of medical and therapeutic services, medications and other necessities".

Israel denies blocking humanitarian aid into Gaza, though aid agencies say they are not able to get aid in because of Israeli restrictions.
