Today in World Trade Center history: it’s been 30 years since the 1993 WTC bombing. Today, the victims of the bombing are recognized at the 9/11 memorial, and the attack is rarely mentioned. Below the cut is a brief summary of the event and its aftermath.
Carried out on February 26, 1993, the WTC bombing was coordinated by members of al-Qaeda as an act of opposition to the United States’ interference in the Middle East. In particular, the group greatly opposed the US aid of Israel’s occupation of Palestine, a grim situation that continues to this day.
The FBI was aware that individuals within the group had access to materials and instructions for making bombs, but for unknown reasons they did not intervene before the attack. The plan was for the North Tower’s structural integrity to be so damaged that it would fall into the South Tower, destroying them both; if the bomb were more powerful or placed closer to the concrete foundation, the plan may have succeeded.
The six victims who died as a result of the bombing are today recognized alongside the victims of 9/11 at the letter’s memorial. 1,000+ individuals were injured as a result of the blast, many of whom were trapped in stairwells or elevators and exposed to smoke. Victims and their families were not compensated by the September 11 Victim Compensation Fund or a similar fund.
The Port Authority’s main priority after the bombing was reopening the complex. Many offices were temporarily relocated in order to restore business as quickly as possible. With structural damage and smoke reaching up to the 93rd floor of both towers, the cost to repair the towers was estimated to be around $250 million. Both towers had reopened by April 1, 1993.
Many were quick to accuse various entities of orchestrating the attack, including Iraq and other Middle Eastern countries, although there was little information to connect the bombing to any one group at the time. The bombing made it known that the towers were considered a target for terrorism, and a second attack was anticipated as early as 1995; however, the US government and law enforcement officials claim that the 2001 attacks were “largely unforeseen.”
After the bombing, security was tightened in the complex, and many offices reviewed or changed their evacuation plans. The Port Authority, as the main security officiant of the complex, also adjusted their policies for package delivery and access to the roofs of each building.
The Port Authority was found to be responsible for the bombing through negligence in a court proceeding in 2005, a decision that was overturned in 2011.

Fight against misinformation
"Main Stream Media Stop Manipulating the Truth About Palestine" infographic from 2021
The story that Hamas beheaded 40 babies was repeated & reported on by major news stations. It is completely unverified.
While it is possible cases of sexual assault have occurred, the news and government officials have repeatedly spread unsubstantiated claims to portray all Palestinians as brutal rapists & support Israel's war crimes & genocide against Palestinians. They completely ignore the violence that has been inflicted on Palestinians for decades.
People in Gaza DID protest peacefully in 2018-2019. Israel shot at them, killing over 200 people and injuring thousands. (Al Jazeera, Wikipedia).
Israel’s occupation of Palestinian Territory is apartheid
The median age of Gaza is 18 & 39.75% of the population is fourteen years or younger. Israel is bombing schools, hospitals, and homes under the guise of "eliminating terrorists"
Israel's seige on Gaza is against the Geneval Convention, which prohibits collective punishment.
Calling for Palestinian freedom is not antisemitic. A 2021 poll by the Jewish Electorate Institute showed that many Jewish voters in America do not see criticism of Israel & their actions against the Palestinians as antisemitic, and a majority supported renewing humanitarian aid to Palestinians while restricting aid "so it cannot be spent on expanding settlements in the West Bank." Israel ≠ all Jews & anti-Zionism ≠ antisemitism. Genocide is genocide, no matter who does it.
Support the Palestinians around you. Many people with family in Gaza and the West Bank are watching the media and government officials calling their families terrorists and supporting Israel killing them. Uplift their voices. Let them grieve. Show that you stand WITH them, not the people calling them animals and Nazis.
You keep posting about the genocide of Palestinians but... so what? What do you want me to do about it? What do you want anyone to do about it? You're not helping, you're not being productive, you're just making people feel bad about something they can't control or effect in any way.
there's an ongoing genocide in gaza but i guess you're the real victim here for having to hear about it

hi hello this is your reminder that google are hypocrites(and bds)
the lay offs were on the 18th this month, pretending to celebrate a native culture as you help the military that is actively ethnically cleansing them, and has been for years, is highly hypocritical and just an attempt to save face
in case someone forgot, google is on BDS' "pressure" list, which means it isn't necessary a 100% boycott but rather a target for pressuring and limiting your use of their services to push them towards cutting ties with israel
additional context on dabka:
it is a folk dance from levantine countries like lebanon, jordan, syria, and palestine. with possible origins in ancient phoenician and/or canaanite cultures
#3 of the countries mentioned in the dabka part were bombed by israel in the past 6 months btw#also yeah youtube is owned by google... just incase someone somehow didn't already know-#israel#colombia university#jerusalem#free gaza#gaza#free palestine#palestine news#united nations#palestine#gaza strip#social justice#yemen#colonialism#tel aviv#news on gaza#west bank#apartheid#فلسطين#i stand with palestine#lebanon#jordan#syria#fuck google#google

ive said this before but it's hard being an lgbt malaysian and listening to western lgbt people freak out over things that have been our reality the entire time. i've had to come to terms with the fact that i'll likely never be able to legally transition in malaysia, will never be able to change my name or gender on documents and it will probably remain illegal for me to use public bathrooms, seek medical care, exist in public, do literally anything as a trans person there for the rest of my life. i am not happy about this and i am luckier than most having the ability to medically transition in canada but i'm always hyperaware that this can be taken away from me at any moment (and is likely to in the near future with the slow death of liberalism in canada as well), that whenever i return i'm at risk of imprisonment if i'm caught by the wrong person, and i know the reality of what life is like for people back home who do not have the privileges i do. but the thing is that even in malaysia trans people use the bathroom and exist in public and have jobs and fall in love and see the doctor and it is possible to carve out a life that is not wholly built upon despair. it's really really fucking hard and scary but we do it anyway because we have to. so it's just really hard to stomach white people in like california freaking out like it's impossible to live in these circumstances or no one else could possibly understand, sorry
#i want nothing more than to return home and be able to live in peace but my family knows it isnt safe for me#when you grow up understanding that to be lgbt means to be a literal criminal and people get caned killed imprisoned for it#but unfortunately mentioning any of this makes white people go well we should bomb you and do nato invasion because youre evil#rather than pulling themselves together and recognizing shared struggle. not always but often enough

Thought for sure Jinx was gonna kill Vi's new enforcer buddies. I thought it would have paralleled her killing Mylo and Claggor, only this time it would be on purpose rather than accidental. This time she'd be remorseless rather than guilt-ridden and apologetic. Imagine if the show had spent time fleshing out the bond between Vi and her new squad. Shown them spending time together and training together. Shown how well she works with Maddie, Steb, and Loris, the latter reminding her so much of Vander. Then they go hunt Jinx together. And Jinx kills them one by one. Mylo, Claggor, and Vander dead again at Vi's feet. Only now there's no Powder crying and saying it was an accident and begging Vi not to leave her. Now Vi calling her "Jinx" again wouldn't just be an outburst she wishes she could take back. She'd 100% mean it this time.
It would have made Vi's murderous rage towards her sister make way more sense. The show makes it seem like the killing of the Council is what made Vi turn from "Powder, it's okay, we'll be okay" to "Powder is gone, let's murder Jinx." And that's just not a believable enough reason for me. Jinx was given plenty of complex well-written reasons to hate Vi, but Vi wasn't really given many personal reasons to hate Jinx. If Jinx had killed those Vi had come to care for, I'd fully understand her turning on Jinx and wanting to beat her to death, just like Ekko. I just wish they put just as much effort into writing one half of the sister rivalry as the other, considering it was supposed to be the main plot of the show.
#vi's very last line in season 1 was to reassure her sister and tell her they're gonna be okay#even after everything that happened and everything jinx did#the only thing jinx does after that is bomb the council so it really seems like THAT is supposed to be vi's turning point to hating jinx#she doesn't even mention the firelights at all so i doubt she's angry at jinx on their behalf or anything#they really should have put more effort into writing vi's side of things#give her actual strong reasons to feel as murderous towards jinx as jinx does towards her#arcane s2#arcane#arcane league of legends#arcane netflix#arcane season 2#arcane vi#arcane jinx#vi#jinx#arcane critical

Listen, y'all outside of the Israel/Palestine situation can have whatever opinions you have, but as someone who woke up at 7am by the sounds of sirens and who has friends and family living in the danger zone, I honestly don't give a shit, and no other israel or palestinian gives a shit either over what some dumb fuck on the internet who's never experienced war or even been in a bomb shelter has to say. I pray that my palestinian friends are safe, and that they will suffer as little as possible. People on both sides are DYING. You can have your bullshit, experienceless opinion all you want, but fact is people here are suffering, and you, person getting angry and writing shitty tumblr posts, are not.
Go to hell, people are dying and you making anti-semetic/anti-palestinian post is helping no one but your pathetic ego
Edit: there's were just attacks where I live (which is considered safe) and I'm gonna be completely honest, I'm terrified, for both sides. PLEASE if you're in Palestine/Israel dm/reblog/comment to let me know your ok. We need to support each other through this. This is going to cause us all so much trauma, and we need to hold each other's hands.
#palestine#israel#ישראבלר#ישרבלר#sorry for being harsh but I'm sick of this shit#tw bomb#tw bombing#tw war#tw war mention#i'm really sorry everyone

When the Past Catches Up Chapter 2
Chapters: 1
A/N: Nothing much to say! Let's go!
TAGS: @gala1981
CWs: gun, threats, bombing mention, death mention, Caretaker x Whumpee
ENJOY!
_____
Five years. It had been five years since Caretaker left that life behind. And he was much happier than he was before.
He had gotten a new job as an assistant manager at the local shop. He had made a friend group that supported him.
And he met Whumpee. Someone who he deeply fell in love with.
Whumpee was a shy man; he was scared of Caretaker at first, which Caretaker couldn't blame him. His appearance would cause even children to be afraid. But after getting to know each other, the two grew from best friends to lovers, and they were currently dating and living together. Caretaker's friend group were wholeheartedly supportive of the couple, and Caretaker was glad that was the case. He loved Whumpee, and he didn't want it any other way.
Whumpee was in the bathroom at the moment, showering, as Caretaker watched the morning news. He sipped his coffee, as the news reporter reported yet another murder. Of course there was. For the past year, there have been many murders, and none of them were solved. At first, Caretaker was uneasy about the sudden surge of deaths, but he realized that no, it wasn't the Organization where he was from. If it was, there would be worse crimes than this.
The news was beginning a report of a celebrity when Caretaker heard a knock on his door. He raised a brow over his mug of coffee, glancing at the front door. Who was that at this time of morning? The mailman would never knock, he would have placed any packages at the front door. Was it a friend of Caretaker or Whumpee's? Was it a neighbor who needed to borrow something?
Another knock. Caretaker sighed. Surely this guest wouldn't go away unless he answered the door. He placed the mug on the side table before getting up and heading towards the door.
He opened it, his mouth open to say a "hello", but froze when he saw a gun pointing straight at his head. His eyes widened in shock, staring at the barrel of the gun that could end his life within seconds. His heart pounded in his chest, his breathing hitched.
The wielder of the gun smirked, before greeting in a casual voice, "Hey, Caretaker."
Caretaker recognized them. It was Teammate, from the Organization. But… that branch was blown up. How were they still alive?
"Teammate…?" Caretaker questioned, still in shock. "How—what—"
"How have you been?" Teammate asked, "It's been a while huh? You got a new house? Is someone living with you?"
"Teammate," Caretaker warned, his breath still caught in his throat, "leave. Now. Or I'll call the cops."
"And how would you do that?" Teammate asked with a smirk, "You have a gun trained on you. You move, you're dead."
Caretaker would have said something, or even repeated himself, but he knew it was no good. Teammate was right; with the gun pointing at him, there was no way he would call someone. Especially since his phone was sitting on the coffee table, too far to reach from his position.
"...What do you want?" Caretaker asked, careful not to say anything that could get him killed.
"Whumper says they have a job for you, something only you can do," Teammate began, "said that your bombing skills could be useful."
"I left that life long ago, Teammate," Caretaker growled, his hands clenched into fists. "Now leave."
Teammate scoffed, rolling their eyes, before lowering their gun. Caretaker would have tackled them right here, but he knew better. Even with the gun no longer trained on him, he wasn't risking himself.
"Listen," Teammate warned, "we always got along well back then. That's why I came to warn you." They turned their back on Caretaker, before turning their head to face his wide, shocked eyes, "Whumper may say they have a job offer, which is true, but they also still want revenge for leaving them and the organization the way you did. So, I won't tell anyone I found you for old times sake, but I'm not the only one Whumper sent out to find you. Just be on guard, especially concerning that little boyfriend of yours."
And with that, Teammate left.
Caretaker stood in the doorway, his heart stuttering in his chest. How… how did Teammate know where he was? What would happen now? What if—
Whumpee. Oh God, he could end up being involved.
Fear struck then, and anxiety reared its ugly head. Caretaker closed the door then, basically slamming it due to the fear. He stood there, frozen in place, as his mind replayed the scenario that just happened.
Whumper and the rest of the team weren't dead. They were all alive and pissed.
He failed to hear a distant door opening, he even failed to hear footsteps until he felt a hand on his shoulder. He jumped, still in shock over recent events, before turning to see Whumpee. Whumpee wiped off the excessive water from his hair with a towel, before he glanced up at his beloved with a smile.
"Sorry it took a bit," Whumpee apologized. "But I'm ready to go!"
"Go��" Caretaker asked, but then remembered.
Oh right. Our date.
He nodded quickly, too quickly in fact. His heart rate was still quick, and his anxiety continued to grow, but he pushed it aside for now. He didn't want Whumpee to know what just happened.
"Okay," Caretaker said, "let's go."

I was saving this for my fanfic but I liked the idea so much I had to draw it!
Bonus:
Here is a link to the fic this scene is from! (Only chapter 1 is up, so this scene has not yet happened)
#cherrisnake#cherri bomb#sir pentious#hazbin hotel#hazbin hotel fanart#hazbin hotel comic#So this is a headcanon I've had in mind for a while now! I don't know if anyone else has pointed it out yet#but when I was doing research I never saw anyone mention the term Good Egg#which apparently came from the 1800s#and I thought it only made sense that if he did have some son then he'd have considered that kid a Good Egg#and therefore Eggs have a greater meaning in his life#having probably said that term so often when he was living#I really do like the idea of having the Egg Boiz be like his own children in some way#And the realization hitting Cherri that she'd just been breaking them because they were just his inventions just mmmh#the angst#me sleeping well tonight knowing I made this somewhat sad comic

i know that folks from the west are not easily giving into support for palestine because “well israeli civilians dont deserve to die, stop being a dick by cheering for this”
and listen. we understand that very well. we cannot cheer for innocent people losing their lives. but we wouldnt BE here today if this were something that could have been sorted out over a negotiation
netanyahu just last week, w a disgusting ass smug face made it clear at the UN GA that he was redrawing the map of the middle east. he was literally there with a board and a marker pen, shamelessly redrawing a map of israel over palestine. people fucking clapped. there is video footage, goo look at it.
and that’s just what the west is seeing. what the west has been conveniently ignoring, or worse, supporting, is the apartheid in palestine for the past 100 years. what is happening in israel today, theyve been doing exactly that and Worse for a century in palestine.
any both sides argument misses the fucking point because it ignores a whole history of how theyve fucked over the palestinian people. not just outright killing their people but also stealing land and resources and redirecting them to the israeli cause.
but the west doesn’t actually give a fuck about arab countries or its people, in fact actively funds genocide. so eat your shitass opinion about not celebrating the one time palestinians have managed to look like a threat.
as hopeful as we are, we know israel is too powerful and has the west as its ally. but this is what palestinian journalist had to say about it “they have decided to fight and die on their feet, rather than just die on their knees”
another journalist reporting from gaza said “well the people in gaza are used to airstrikes of this kind so they have a standard protocol on how to evacuate and know when to give up, and go down together as a family”
let the enormity of those statements sink in, and then maybe you can fucking talk about both sides.
#maybe if yall stop acting like your governments you’d actually grow a braincell for once#whatever#free palestine#israel#palestine#it’s also worth noting that israel has the finances and systems to make shelters along w a much better healthcare system in place#unlike palestine. where there arent any bomb shelters to seek refuge in. and the healthcare system has already been overwhelmed-#because of the already prevalent israeli violence#not to mention their finances fucking suck

they deserved better idc 😐
#it was so cool seeing the sign language and isha being mute was never something that needed fixing#she found a home and jinx found a reason to live#i know people are saying jinx survived because of the scene with Caitlyn but like...#why would jinx do that? she wanted to die this whole season she wanted to die at the beginning of the episode & that depression never faded#her escaping through the air vents implies a will to live#something jinx did not have#i thought it felt like the ending of ep 7 in the season one#trying to kill herself with ekko cause she didnt want to die alone. she had warwick when she pulled out & detonated one of her monkey bombs#like I'd love it if she was alive and left cause yea fuck Piltover get outta there honey!#and Isha's sacrifice meant nothing. she's just not mentioned at all we didnt even see Sevika's reaction to her death...#not dc#arcane#arcane spoilers#jinx arcane#isha arcane#tw suicide mention#the ending with Caitlyn felt like another moment of her and Vi having no idea the severity of Jinx's mental health issues#vi was upset she didnt wanna fight and go make change and shit and never mentioned the ''my sister wants to kill herself''#as if jinx wasn't in a depressive state every time we saw her in that cell.#and her removing herself from the equation so the others can be happy is ??????#so i guess she was a jinx to her family??? that she was the problem? its a frankly gross message to send with a suicidal character#that yes actually your loved ones will be better off without you in the picture you complicate things

Finally reading "Under the Red Hood" for my story, Dick Grayson V Gotham and some notes about what exactly happens here:
Jason's helmet really is a whole ass red circle with eyes, isn't it.
There's constant internal monologue about how much Batman cares about his kids. From Alfred and from Batman.
There's a whole ass woman who I have never seen referenced before called Onyx? Who's apparently the "only other hero allowed in the whole of gotham... other than catwoman".
Bruce recognizing Jason just based on how he fights and plans is beautiful, even if bruce doesn't believe it yet.
Superman's over here flirting with Bruce, going "we could have gotten tickets to the theater if you'd called ahead 😘😘" while bruce is traveling all over the world to figure out if his baby boy might be back from the dead.
Lowkey sad that Jason doesn't have the skunk stripe. I know it was fanon that occasionally became canon, but I still like it.
Wow, this Robin!Jason flashback is really giving us good views of the scaly panties, >:P
So, during the flashback, Bruce brings up the idea that Jason has a "mean streak" in comparison to how Dick was. But it's not that Jason was "mean" and Dick "nice"--Dick has a massive temper, even if canon rarely allows him to acknowledge it--but with Dick... Everytime he was Robin, I think he was still in the mindset of "performer". There was a bit more disconnect between him and the criminals of Gotham, because the fights were more like acts. Jason performs too, but he's very personal about it. This is his city, he's taking all these crimes personally and even when he's "performing" it's still Jason Todd, while Dick's Robin is more so a mask. IDK, this is just the vibes I'm picking up.
I really love the panels after Jason blows up the meth lab. The way the colors are... it makes Jason almost look like he's teared up? It's beautiful.
Oh great, Slade's here. No wonder this things so damn long
You know what, Slade? I'm on Black Mask's side here. A nazi and a hyena man? You can find better hired help on Craigslist.
Just finished the fight, and I'm STILL on Black Mask's side. Slade, who the fuck are these losers!?
Yes, Jason baby, kill the nazi!
Jason got them Christmas presents! That's sweet!
Slade, why the FUCK were you here? Did you see Nightwing was in town and go "lol, this'll be funny"?
Black Mask really calling himself Daddy around Jason... wasn't a joke. Huh.
There are some very nice parallels after Jason reveals his identity to Bruce. Bruce was too late to stop Joker's bomb, he was too late to stop the bomb in the meth lab. Bruce was too late to stop his son from getting attacked by a supervillain, but Bruce was faster now, good job! And Bruce never killed his son's killer, and he won't kill Stephanie's killer either. It's like he keeps testing Bruce to see if he really has to go through with his plan with the Joker.
Actually, it wouldn't surprise me if Jason's entire beef with Black Mask was because of his part in Stephanie Brown's death.
...I don't really like the idea of Jason calling himself a zombie after Joker did it.
Jason wiped the smile off his face, goddamn! (And don't think I didn't notice how similar Joker and Jason's laughs are, comic artists. Sure, maybe that's just how cackling laughter was drawn back then, but in literature, that smells like foiling).
...THIS is when Bludhaven gets destroyed!? Really???
Also, what is this depiction of Bludhaven just... being across a river? This feels unreasonably close, why hasn't Gotham just eaten Bludhaven at this point?
IT'S A NUKE???
THEY ARE LOOKING DIRECTLY AT IT, HOW ARE THEIR EYES NOT GETTING BURNT OUT OF THEIR HEADS
I'm just realizing how many explosives there are in this series. Between the bombs the Bats use, and the bombs Jason sets up, and... what happened to bludhaven. That, kids, is what we call a theme!
Bruce really is sympathetic in this. It's subtle, which is good, I don't think anyone would have appreciated the author blaring out "BATMAN IS IN THE RIGHT, HE'S THE BEST GUY, FUCK JASON."
And Jason is getting more and more unhinged as the fight progresses.
You know, it's occurring to me that this all could have been prevented if New Jersey had the death penalty. There's no way Joker could have gotten the insanity plea so many times if they could put him in the ground for good.
...I wonder if Batman votes to reinstate the death penalty?
"But why... why on God's earth--??! Is he still alive!!??" Is just... such a good reveal. Such a good line. No wonder we're all so fixated on this character, omg.
Oh. This is why Jason thinks Batman doesn't love him.
It's the lack of reciprocation. Jason sees "killing the Joker after he killed you" as an act of love. Batman cannot provide that act, so Jason sees that refusal as proof he is unloved.
The funniest Joker's ever been:
Oh, the batarang moment. Oh no.
Oh no oh no oh no
I still feel like resurrection via Superboy punching the universe hard is still a cop-out reason why Jason's alive, but the line "Until time decided to set things right." is speaking to me.
Oh god, the buried alive scene is brutal.
Okay, so Jason came back fully sane, he definitely knew what he was doing breaking out of the coffin, but his injuries that were unhealed and getting hit by a fucking car are what caused his catatonic state. He didn't just wake up not all there, that happened because no one was looking out for him.
Okay, so 6 months dead, about a... year in a coma. It says a year for his time catatonic on the streets, then a year with Talia, still catatonic... that's three and a half years, Jason really started being the Red Hood... like what, a few weeks after he got tossed in the Pits?
...I thought the pits were green. They look gold in my version of these comics, is that normal?
EW, WHY'D SHE KISS HIM
Also, there was no brainwashing this boy, Talia literally just said "you remain avenged" and it sent Jason on this whole murder spiral, she didn't do shit
Except kiss him. which, EW
Alright, good night everybody!

Still very wild to me when people try to gotcha Jason with the whole "if you can kill other people for being evil why can't they kill you" when jason is like. One of the most passively suicidal characters I've ever seen. What if man
#augh i dont want to cw this because im just talking about The Character and i feel bad when i do it for characters but i probably should#suicide mention#ask to tag#while im here i do absolutely believe hes been suicidal since jaybin times. maybe even before just in different ways. but like#going into that building with shelia? yeah#now. i DONT think he was aware of it and if youd ask him hed say no fully believing thats the truth#but like if a ghost jaybin had some introspection time i think he'd maybe eventually be like yeah#his outcomes to him were have a loving parent or die and hes a very big fan of ultimatums like that.#but he doesn't fully see it like that as jaybin because oh hes a hero and saving others when no one else can is what heros do :)#ramble. ivee been feeling it lately yknow how it is#ive once saw a post saying jason was planning to die after the joker was dead in utrh and yeagh i can see that#he puts A BOMB in his HELMET#suicidal characters in the context of hero stories are so fascinating to me. the self sacrifice.#the not caring about your own safety as long as you save someone else. the pushing yourself#the way itd be so easy to make it look like they just fell in battle. to be considered a hero in the end#anyway ive been glancing at suicidal jason todd fics. how bad is it that im still getting mad about characterization#because theyre not killing him right#AND ANOTHER THING. since im here and i try to avoid making posts about The Character like this so might as welk get it all out#think about suicidal jaybin as well as the fact 80s bruce very much considered suicidal people/people attempting like#weak and lazy? yells at them? i think thats about it. Very Much. je seems to straight up just hate them#again very much feel free to ask me to tag this one ^-^'#and i hope no one thinks im being callous here im very worried about that. i just its a very important part of his character to think about#and its fun to explore as someone who is passively suicidal myself#jason todd analysis#anyway no one look at me i am in my corner just rotating him#WAIT to clarify i dont think jaybin fully realized Just becauceof the heros sacrifice thing. i made it sound like that i believe#anyway. if you read him as suicidal since jaybin times and go to ditf with that lens like i did. well. the post death victim blaming..
