Israeli forces burn 94-year-old Palestinian grandmother alive
94-year-old Naifa Rizq al-Sawada, who suffered from Alzheimer's and was unable to walk or speak, was in her home in the vicinity of the al-Shifa Medical Complex in the west of Gaza City on 21 March when the Israeli military invaded stormed her home post-midnight and forcibly evicted her family at gunpoint, forcing them to leave her behind.
Yesterday, her sons who were able to return home after Israeli forces' withdrawal, discovered her home engulfed in flames by the Israeli army. Inside, they found her charred remains on her bed.

Sometimes I just wanna take Jason Todd's whole character wrap him up in bubble wrap and a blanket and put him on the highest shelf where no one can reach so he won't be tortured anymore or so DC can't kill him again

Y’all I hate when Miguel is portrayed as the “silent brooding” type in fics. Like yeah he had his brooding moments in the film but canonically he’s so sassy. Literally always has a comeback (maybe not super witty) and yeah he might be a bit awkward and mopey but he’s not shy or quiet. Irritated and grumpy maybe but not silent. He’s a talker and he’s got some sass. Just look at how he talks with Lyla, Peter, and Jess.
I also don’t like when he’s portrayed as “unreasonably cruel”. If that were the case, Peter B. and Jess would not have stood behind him and supported him all those times before the Miles incident. You can tell he really cares deep down when he:
• Lets Gwen join the Spider Society despite his reservations because he knows what it feels like to lose family
• Keeps Lyla around even though all she does is tease him because if he was a jerk he wouldn’t have wanted to put up with that and would have just shut her down instantly
• Carefully holds and watches Mayday while she’s with him instead of recoiling from her
• Tries to patiently explain the spider-verse canon problem to Miles and you can see the sympathy yet determination in his eyes when he tries to reason with Miles about the sacrifices of being Spider-Man
• Shows Miles his most vulnerable and heartbreaking moment as a way to connect with him
• He regularly calls for backup and works in a team instead of just going on his own which shows how much he trusts and appreciates his colleagues
I just wish we could have seen more of his normal interactions with other characters when he’s not dealing with high pressure situations.
(Edit: Yeah he got crazy scary during the Miles chase scene and kicked Gwen out at the end. I’ll admit he’s got a temper. But he was desperate guys. It was life or death to him and linked to his trauma with losing Gabriella. He literally thought another universe would collapse again if he didn’t do anything to stop it, making it partly his fault. It wasn’t just a pride thing. He felt like there was so much at stake and that’s why he went ballistic on Miles, just to make him listen.)

Lol. Lmao, even
Just a rant to get it off my chest, you dont have to read it i just need to get it into the world. My step dad is a recovering alcoholic but he relapses around this time every year. I could tell it was coming on because one of his buddies spent the night in his car in our driveway recently, and then I came home from work that night and my mom was sleeping in the living room, which she only does when he's drinking. She was in there again last night, and when I was getting up for work this morning, she told me she was awake and I could use the kitchen without waking her up. I didn't (because I was running late), so she didn't get a chance to go in and talk to me, so she sent me about three paragraphs while I was driving to work, which is typical in this situation. So now I have to avoid her until this all blows over so I don't end up sitting there listening to her for three hours while she corners me to say the same things she's been saying for almost 10 years with him. When I got home from work I sat in my car for a few hours until it seemed like everyone would be asleep, and she was actually not in the living room when I went in, so maybe it was just the one day and not an ongoing relapse. But I went to the bathroom and then went down to my room, and I'm pretty sure I heard her coming down the stairs, so I had to go straight out the back door and back to my car. It's like 1 am and I'm still in my car because if I go back in and she hears me, she's going to corner me in my room and I won't be able to go to bed for another few hours because she'll recount every single thing that has been said or done between the two of them in the past few days. She needs a therapist, but I was assigned eldest daughter at birth, so that's basically what I am in her eyes. I'm just so tired of spending every single night trying to figure out whether I'll be able to come inside and make dinner in peace or if I have to sit in my car until I'm dead tired and fall asleep without eating as soon as I go in. I'm supposed to be getting a raise soon but my boss didn't tell me how much so idk if it'll be enough to actually move out, but by the gods i hope so

Steve looking up at Uncle Wayne as the father figure he never had. Unlike his dad, he doesn’t cheat or disappear from his life when things get tough. Eddie loves it because it means he can see his boyfriend even more. It’s all fun and games until Steve goes to his father figure to complain about his boyfriend leaving him at a McDonald’s after a fight they had. Then Eddie has to deal with an upset boyfriend, a disappointed uncle, and an angry Robin to boot.
He has no choice but to take desperate measures. Eddie tells Hopper that Wayne is trying to take his “cool dad” spot in the Party and watches the chaos unfold.
By time anyone realizes what he’s done, he’s made up with Steve and escapes another murderous rage by the skin of his teeth. Mission accomplished, indeed.
Should I make this into a longer fic? I feel like I could go places with this lol
