A young Yemenite Jewish silversmith sells the handcrafted goods of his family business, including beads, necklaces, earrings, bangles, amulets and a jambiya or men's dagger including an ornate sheath with the accompanying belt. Though the ornamental scabbard sheaths were often crafted by Jewish silversmiths, only Arabs in Yemen were permitted to wear these daggers. In the background Jewish men are seen smoking shisha tobacco and possibly chewing Khat with little girls around. Yemen, 1980s. Only one Jew is known to remain in Yemen today.

Duniya Mein Kaagaz hi Kaagaz Hain,

Tum Mujhe Khat to Likho...

दुनिया में कागज़ ही कागज़ हैं,

तुम मुझे ख़त तो लिखो... 🍂

"There is nothing like your own country, it's true. The love you get from your mother, can you get the same love from your stepmother? It's the same with a country that is not your own. To leave your country is a very, very serious thing."

To all the people I knew—

Hey. Do you remember me? I don't know. I am always a guy with fewer answers. But I remember you. Even if you met me for a minute or we were together for years. I don't forget people. Do you remember when I met you on the chatting app? And we became friends. I thought that this time the friendship would last longer. But it never happened. We always get apart, right? Sometimes you left me without saying anything. And sometimes there was nothing to stay for. Despite all that, we had good times. We had fun together. We smiled and we cried together. Most of the time, I was wondering how lucky I am to have you. But now I find myself unlucky. Losing you was not good. It left the void inside. For every friend I lost, I lost trust in friendship. But still, when somebody texts me or we start talking, I start thinking maybe this will last longer. Anyways, we are strangers now. So happy life, stranger.

fic rec! 107K of puzzleshiping (and others) and please don't ask me how I found it

Summary: Yugi always knew his yami had control issues. But, he never thought he’d go quite this far. What do you do when the person you trusted the most literally destroys your whole world? Rebel, of course.

Comments: First off, mind the tags on this one. It's smutty and full of noncon, as Yugi and his crew get caught very early in the fic and then...suffer, shall we? There is a plot here, but it takes a backseat to relationship building, and at the very end brings in worldbuilding/plot that was pretty good at erasing early misgivings about character behaviors. This was one of those distracting reads, pulling my attention from things even though I couldn't quite pinpoint why.

Lies, it's because I always hoped the next chapter would be a Yugi focus. The fic is pretty balanced between Jou, Ryou, and Yugi and their ship partners (Kaiba, Bakura, and Atem)

Fixing The Price: The Politics Of The Khat Trade Between Ethiopia And Somaliland

As part of an attempt to increase #export #revenues amidst weak #economic performance, #Ethiopia doubled the price of #khat for exports to #Somaliland & #Djibouti in Apr. The decision was reversed a few months later. What was behind this #trade price ‘fix’ & why does it matter?

There's a character in Tales Of Asunder like this!!!!

Sometimes I remember that all lesbianism is named after 1 really gay lady from 4000 years ago. Whether you use the term Sapphic or lesbian, it still is from her which is hilarious, hope she enjoys being women loving incarnate

Ek khat unke liye jinki nazaron ne humare dil me ghuspaith kar li,

Jinki nazaron se behta pyar shehed se bhi hume meetha laga...

Last year isi din maine than liya tha ki jisne itni mehnat ki mere liye, jiski aankein usse zyada bolti hai ...usse mai pyar karungi, dil khol ke pyar karungi, itna pyar dungi ki uske sath khushi baat daki...Aur vaise hi is saal aur aane waale har saal mai yahi chahungi ki tere aaspaas tere pyare dost ho jinpe tu aankh band karke bhi bharosa kar sake.. Jo tuje sahi raah dikhaye... Aur vo humesha tere sath tere sadu se chehre par aai muskurahaatein baatein.

Happy New Year mera pehle pyar, mera panda♥️
