i don't really know how to even articulate how painful it is to look at photos like these
(settlers celebrating purim in occupied west bank with police and soldiers. several of them dressed as a man who killed 29 palestinians three decades ago. they idolize this figure as a hero of their genocidal movement)
for anyone unaware, purim is a jewish holiday commemorating a time when we escaped imminent genocide by fighting back against our oppressors. violent resistance was involved. violent resistance was successful. purim is a holiday that celebrates freedom, resistance, and liberation.
tradition around purim often involves dressing up in costume. when i was little, the girls all wanted to be esther. the boys would be mordechai. purim is fun. fond memories of babies in little animal onesies. of making and eating hamentaschen. of booing hamans name and laughing together.
when i see these genocidal zionists dressing up and drinking and having fun like this it reminds me of the ways i've celebrated purim in the past. and it makes me so extremely angry. what right do you have to celebrate jewish resistance and liberation? what right do you have to parade your weapons around and walk on stolen palestinian land and celebrate?
zionists fancy themselves esther but they are no less than haman himself. groggers should be used to curse their names.
while gazan hospitals are being bombed and raided they celebrate with my customs and my holidays. and it makes me so angry

i had forgotten how fun swingsets are. man, THIS is how i like to connect with my theriotype. i really feel like an owl in that moment where i swoop down and lean back, then up again when i turn my face to the stars. that’s what makes me feel right. it sounds stupid, and a lot of people would think i’m absolutely batshit crazy, but wow. just wow. i’ve always loved that feeling of weightlessness when i drop. the feeling of flying and the wind blowing in my face. ♾️/10 will absolutely do whenever i get the chance (plus its a pretty good workout too lmao)

i would like to point out that in order to believe comparing palestinian genocide to hiroshima, bosnian genocide, the holocaust, armenian genocide, etc would be trivializing those events, you must first believe palestinian genocide is trivial in itself.
palestinian lives are not expendable. get that through your head before you start talking down to them and their supporters.

We got this cat bed a while ago, and none of our cats have ever wanted to use it because I’m pretty sure cats can’t get down with swinging beds like this.
So I let Pomni sit there and enjoy it.. well, as much as someone like her can enjoy it
