Sometimes I just have to sit and cry a little about people in antiquity trying to heal their loved ones that suffered brain damage (something we're still struggling to do right now) and like... I don't care about the idea that humanity is selfish, bullshit, we have been refusing to give up on each other since the very begining

the coptic language is derived from greek and i'm pretty sure they use the same alphabet too so they're really similar and you'll find it in all coptic churches :>

I looove to imagine Doppi being tired of his job sometimes, crying to Tiziano about how he wants to be back in Egypt, looting artifacts to sell on the black market. It was much better than what he’s doing now. At least back then, he was responsible for himself only, communicating only with his boss and Tiziano (two people whose company he truly enjoys), not forced to interact with a bunch of idiots everyday, maintaining the largest mafia in Italy. And Tiziano thinks like, yeah, it’s nostalgic, but he’ll never trade the stability he has now and his relationship with Squalo. And Diavolo thinks like, yeah, it’s suuure nostalgic, but he’ll never trade the control and power he has now. Tiziano still comforts Doppi, saying he misses those times as well. The Boss will call him some time after that and say the same thing. And Doppio would get over that small moment of weakness, continuing his daily grind (after all, that’s what they wanted back then in Egypt), but he does miss those, much simpler (at least for him) times

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.
