Transnational Repression in the MENA Region: The Role of Regional Organizations Engaged in Counter-Terrorism.

The Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region is witnessing a troubling trend of transnational repression, with regional organizations often exacerbating human rights abuses. These abuses often target and silence activists, dissidents and human rights defenders under the guise of counterterrorism laws and other measures inconsistent with international human rights standards.

Ministry Aesthetics — 1: The Abbey You hear a faint ringing of bells, the haunting echo of a choir. Mountain air seeps through the pores of the stones like a crisp fog: scents of pine, cedarwood, sweet juniper, dew. Fresh-cut gardenias soak up a haze of sunlight in the main halls. The chapel ebbs a steady bloom of frankincense. Even in the day's silence, magic hangs in the air. The evening mass will soon begin.

This is just me throwing spaghetti at the wall, but are there any Kingdom Hearts artists that would be interested in doing something like a sticker rally to raise funds for aid work in Palestine?

I don't have any first-hand experience with physical goods, but I was thinking stickers are low-cost enough that they'd been the most efficient thing to offer and designs could be continually added over time from many different contributors. I've been trying to come up with something I could do with what little time and resources I have, and now the idea is at a point where I simply have to shout it into the void to see if anything echoes back.

Please could you make some shiny pokemon

🥺

👉👈

I'm probably not going to make any more shiny Pokemon until I finish at least one regular one of every Pokemon, but here's a shiny Hisui Zoroark I made back when I had a Patreon that I never posted here!

I just don't believe anyone reposting those lists about "here's 15+ different places with Problems going on (just like palestine!!)" knows or cares enough to be able to explain what's happening in more than 1/4 of them in anything approaching the depth appropriate to doing the topic justice

Deaths that result from resistance against settler-colonial violence is ALWAYS the fault of the colonizers. Not the colonized.

Don't want a war? Don't spend 80 years doing an apartheid against the indigenous.

The m34th going through different witch seduction tactics, meanwhile Lime is just: thighs thighs thighs thighs

HE WOULD!!!!! also it would be VERY funny if the anti-witch-seduction (AWS) training had the exact same vibes as those free speech training things they make you do in university where you watch a bunch of bad acting videos and answer very easy questions that have very obvious correct answers if youre not a monster

lime having to sit there watching another video of someone dressed as a fake witch and then taking a multiple choice quiz thats like "You see a witch trying to bribe you with her body, do you A) bring her in anyway, or B) give in?" and hes like "Boy oh boy i wonder what the right answer is"

or its one of those cringey corporate team meeting vibes where everyone sits down in a big room and the manager goes "okay im not naming names but REMEMBER IN THE HANDBOOK how it says we're not supposed to sleep with witches?? yeah?? that was in the handbook guys. please read it again if you need to. this is not team player behavior"

Why can't the churches with choirs and pipe organs and stained glass windows have a bit more theological rigor??

i do not talk about politics online for a variety of reasons, top amongst them being that i think the most effective way to make an impact on someone's views is to have a one-on-one conversation with them. And i am personally most well versed in local politics because living in a conservative area means that i am fighting an uphill battle both ways trying to convince someone that actually the more liberal candidate is the one who is advocating for policies that will positively effect you, i promise, and i have to have specific instances i can cite as proof for these conversations to be really meaningful. but because of this specific way i engage with politics, sometimes i see posts on this webbed site that makes me go "why are you even talking. what are you aiming for. what do you Want."
