Paris

.

Soudain dans le paysage un petit triangle de soleil,

Rome étincelante,

brillant de mille effets de lumière concertante.

Echappée qui se déploie dans ma mémoire

comme une grande voile silencieuse sur de grands océans

dans l'équilibre puissant et libre d'un souffle régulier.

If you ask me, he's been up here too long. Gone native. Enjoying himself too much. Wearing sunglasses, even when he doesn't need them.

"Thousands of demonstrators converged opposite the White House on Saturday to call for an end to Israeli military action in Gaza, while children joined a pro-Palestinian march through central London as part of a global day of action against the longest and deadliest war between Israel and Palestinians in 75 years.

People in the U.S. capital held aloft signs questioning President Joe Biden’s viability as a presidential candidate because of his staunch support for Israel in the nearly 100-day war against Hamas. Some of the signs read: “No votes for Genocide Joe,” “Biden has blood on his hands” and “Let Gaza live.”

Vendors were also selling South African flags as protesters chanted slogans in support of the country whose accusations of genocide against Israel prompted the International Court of Justice in the Hague, Netherlands, to take up the case...

The plight of children in the Gaza Strip was the focus of the latest London march, symbolized by the appearance of Little Amal, a 3.5-meter (11.5-foot) puppet originally meant to highlight the suffering of Syrian refugees.

The puppet had become a human rights emblem during an 8,000-kilometer (4,970-mile) journey from the Turkish-Syrian border to Manchester in July 2001.

Nearly two-thirds of the 23,843 people killed during Israel’s campaign in Gaza have been women and children, according to the Health Ministry in the Hamas-run territory...

“On Saturday Amal walks for those most vulnerable and for their bravery and resilience,“ said Amir Nizar Zuabi, artistic director of The Walk Productions. “Amal is a child and a refugee and today in Gaza childhood is under attack, with an unfathomable number of children killed. Childhood itself is being targeted. That’s why we walk.”

London’s Metropolitan Police force said some 1,700 officers would be on duty for the march, including many from outside the capital...

The London march was one of several others being held in European cities including Paris, Rome, Milan and Dublin, where thousands also marched along the Irish capital’s main thoroughfare to protest Israel’s military operations in the Palestinian enclave.

Protesters waved Palestinian flags, held placards critical of the Irish, U.S. and Israeli governments and chanted, “Free, free Palestine.″

In Rome, hundreds of demonstrators descended on a boulevard near the famous Colosseum, with some carrying signs reading, “Stop Genocide.”

At one point during the protest, amid the din of sound effects mimicking exploding bombs, a number of demonstrators lied down in the street and pulled white sheets over themselves as if they were corpses, while others knelt beside them, their palms daubed in red paint.

Many hundreds of demonstrators gathered in Paris’ Republic square to set off on a march calling for an immediate cease-fire, an end to the war, a lifting of the blockade on Gaza and to impose sanctions on Israel. Marching protesters waved the Palestinian flag and held aloft placards and banners reading, “From Gaza to Paris. Resistance.”"

Also, Im sleep deprived and angry

They will just ruin Emily/Marcelo to shove Emily/Gabriel down our throats once again, wont they? Its going to be just like Emily/Alfie. They were PERFECT together, they challenged e each other as much as they completed each other. And they ruined for fucking GABRIEL, the same man who couldnt even pick her. And then when they were finally together, proceded to leave her all alone in that mountain, seriously, she could've fucking died. And he wouldnt even look for her or go back to see where she was. Then when she rightfully left him, he had the nerve to get upset? Get FUCKED

Season 5 is probably going to be the last one. And if the writers have an ounce of respect for Emily's story and personal growth, theyll keep her in rome with Marcelo. Seriously, Paris wasnt for her. It made her personal life interfere with her work life, a man showed up, then her work somehow screwed up her personal life. Then the opposite. And the whole time Gabriel couldnt decide anything to save his life, making her fucking miserable at the end. Then, another man showed up, rinse and repeat.

Now she finally got everything she wanted and needed: a promotion, a man who loves her, a beautiful city, novelty, no mess and balance.
