Israel is setting up a complex system of checkpoints that will prevent men of “military age” from fleeing Rafah in preparation for its offensive on the southern Gaza border city, a senior western official familiar with Israel’s plans has told Middle East Eye on condition of anonymity. The checkpoints are designed to allow some women and children to leave Rafah ahead of an expected Israeli offensive, but unarmed, civilian Palestinian men will likely be separated from their families and remain trapped in Rafah during an expected Israeli assault. The previously unreported disclosure of Israel’s construction of a ring of checkpoints around Rafah underscores how Israel is pushing ahead with plans to attack the city where over one million displaced Palestinians are sheltering in tents and makeshift camps. The creation of gender-based checkpoints around Rafah would put a spotlight back on Israel’s practice of stripping and forcibly detaining male Palestinian men and children, as it faces rising scrutiny in the West of its conduct in the war. The rounding up of Palestinian males in Gaza and photographing them stripped to their underwear drew condemnation in December, with the US calling the images “deeply disturbing”. Relatives of many of the men photographed recognised them and said they had nothing to do with Hamas. Israel's military was later accused of staging footage of men surrounding weapons. “Israel considers every male a Hamas fighter until proven otherwise,” Abbas Dahouk, a former senior military advisor at the State Department and military attache in the Middle East told Middle East Eye. “It’s not a sound move. Cordoning Rafah is a daunting task and good luck separating fathers and sons from their families.”

Oh btw. Midha and Anduin have been getting fucking ODD on his break time. My guess is she was farming mats and stopped somewhere, not knowing he'd spotted her, and he knows she's a shady bitch and does not respect her in the least ("b-but Wrathion she hasn't spent 6 months in one place since she was twelve!" ass)
So he knocks on the door of her room in some tavern and she, having Substances in her, opens up for one of the nice friendly taverngoers.
but Surprise bitch it's the Royal Fool!
He's on some dot exe shit. Everywhere she goes. Hell she could be entertaining another man. He'll be afterward like "Housekeeping!" Like a mafia ceo boyfriend. Kissing men to impress her. You really don't need all this cosmic shit. You need a flagrantly classist man who would stare homophobia down the barrel and go gay for straight rights.

“An update: As some of you know, on Jan. 26, my nephew died after a long battle with cancer. Less than 24 hours earlier, I'd been laid off from Blizzard's Story & Franchise Development team, where I worked on cinematics, song lyrics, short stories, etc. for all of Blizzard's games. With two life-changing events to deal with at once, I knew I wasn't ready to speak about anything in a public space, and so stepped away to do some thinking and soul-searching.
The shock was followed by an outpouring of kindness, love, & support from my fellow employees. My relationship with Blizzard is almost 25 years old. In that time, I learned to play video games (I know, right?), traveled the world, created and fleshed out characters that millions love, became a NYT bestselling author, kept food on the table, gained new skills, crafts, and an entire second career, won awards, and met some of the finest humans on the planet.
I will miss many things: breaking story with SFD folks, writing cinematics and song lyrics, working with different teams and people. One thing I'd never experienced previously but grew to love passionately was recording with our incredible voice actors. I'm grateful for these experiences.
And, while I'd enjoy working with Blizzard again in one form or other, until then, many other doors are opening, and I've never been in a better position to explore them. A few projects have found me already. Other opportunities will come along as they're meant to, perhaps including game consulting or full-time employment for the right Triple P combo—Place, People, and Projects. Or something utterly new. I am open to what unfolds.
I'll close with a line l wrote years ago for our Overwatch character Sojourn, as it's proved to be prescient and sums up my feelings quite well: "Even the best journeys end. But a new one is just around the corner. And you never know where that road is going to take you."
I plan to enjoy the journey. --Christie Golden”

'the bodysuit is his skin and his helmet is fused to him' gabe like. imagine. (were doin readmore angst now 👍)
he has no need for food or water, but more than that, he doesn't REMEMBER it. he doesn't remember how it feels to have tears roll down your cheeks, instead of gathering in your eyes and blinding you until you blink them away one by one.
he doesn't remember the taste of water, let alone anything else. his own blood is the first actual flavor he's tasted in literal ages.
he had a face. or he must have. once.
at some point, the helmet comes off: slowly, agonizingly, bit by ennervated, bleeding bit. his skin is meshed underneath. the inside of the helmet mirrors the pattern. God knew.
the hunger for air is so much worse, but when he takes a deep, full, unencumbered breath, God's light doesn't seem to matter so much.

HELPGAZACHILDREN!!!!!
Med @fairuzfan’s blog got terminated by tumblr which is obviously unjust for all the people who rely on them for resources on Palestine, but it now leaves Hussam’s helpgazachildren donation drive without a point of communication, and has deleted all previous information Med had shared about the drive.
Please remember to keep donating to helpgazachildren as Hussam’s hard work getting resources to families in Gaza should not have to be hindered while Med is working on getting their blog back 🤍🇵🇸
