ive been thinking about this video quite literally since i saw it 3 weeks ago

TWO HOURS AGO: an incredible photo taken by a ut austin student capturing something deeply poetic in my opinion, a line of state troopers eagerly waiting to arrest student protesters standing just behind a sign that reads "what starts here changes the world. its starts with you and what you do each day."

i think its so funny that alumni from schools like harvard and columbia that were there during the protests in the 60s-80s are expressing support for students currently protesting against the genocide in palestine, and random zionists that were NOT at these protests in the 60s-80s have the never ending audacity to tell these alumni "well thats different, what you protested was good and what they're protesting is bad." as if protesters against the vietnam war and apartheid south africa were not also demonized, arrested, brutalized, and even killed for their activism. history only remembers them fondly after the damage has already been done.

#THIS HAPPENED TO ME TODAY #wearing my columbia sweatshirt in staples and a guy was like #do you know what's going on there? about my sweatshirt #and i was like i was there yesterday it was peaceful #but i was super guarded bc i didn't know what his vibe was #then he was like like i was there in 68 it was so scary but important #and i was like right on dude

What candy you buy from me at concessions says about you

Swedish fish: you have unaddressed antisocial and narcissistic traits. People in your life are afraid to tell you how they really feel about you

Hot tamales: you’re just plain fucked up

Snickers bar: you’re hungry. Your kids made you see this movie

Haribo goldbears: Manchild/womanchild

Milk duds: you’re normal

Sour patch kids: You lack impulse control

Reese’s cups: You lack dignity

Plain m&ms: You’re an “old soul”

Peanut m&ms: you’re deluding yourself

"Here are your tortured poets. All from Mahmoud Darwish to Dr. Refat Alareer to Khaled Juma, these are tortured poets. Tortured by longing for a home they can never return to, tortured by the world they were born to for BEING BORN. Palestine, home to the tortured poets department." [@/folkoftheshelf on X.
