i remember things that what i do!

i remember numbers and chemical formulas and biological process and why stars burn out when they do and thousands of song lyrics and book quotes and names and faces and moments and every little detail about the people i love.

but i can't for the love of god remember the list of things i have to do or the things i started but forgot to finish or the thing i meant to do after i finished the other thing i immediately forgot about... and then it makes people feel horrible for having to ask me over and over and over again to do the same bloody thing.

i don't forget on purpose but sometimes my brain is so full of the things that matter a whole lot to me... so i forget the chores.... and my mother feels more and more unloved because of it.

i'm so sorry my brain is so full... i forget that your love language is service.... it's the one important thing that i forget.

made this gem on Sunday. had to wait all week to post it

a man self immolated in front of the israeli embassy in washington dc yesterday. not just any man. an active member of the us air force. he live streamed his death, and said that he refused to be complicit in a genocide any longer. he said that compared to what palestinians were facing every day, setting himself alight was nothing.

let me reiterate. an active duty air force member burned himself alive because he was so disgusted by what the us government was openly supporting. he live-streamed his own suicide, so the whole world could bear witness as a man in his military uniform set himself on fire to protest his government’s complicity in the horrors that we have all been forced to watch happen in real time. he became a new horror. footage of the immolation blurs him out the moment the fire catches, but you can hear him. it is over in seconds, really, but you can hear him screaming. he shouts “free palestine” until his body physically cannot make any sounds other than guttural screams of agony. and then he falls silent. a police officer arrives and points a gun at his still burning body, shouting at him to get down on the ground. and it is over.

his name was Aaron Bushnell. he was twenty five years old. and he isn’t here anymore because the political ruling class has decided that genocide is perfectly fine as long as it preserves imperialism. in the coming days, people will try to discredit him. to say that he was mentally unstable. they will try to bury his actions to save face and defend israel’s propaganda. do not let them. aaron knew what he was doing. he knew what he was doing when he put on his military uniform, set up his twitch stream, and made his final walk up to the embassy. he knew what would happen to him when he flicked that lighter. do not let them forget. aaron’s blood is on the hands of the political ruling class.
