The humor in GIDEON THE NINTH isn't just cringe and annoying and outdated- but like, actively harms the book IMO. It sells itself as this quirky fantasy novel (lesbian necromancers in space!! isn't that goofy?? Gay people make things extra crazy!!) but at EVERY goddamn turn it has to have the characters go "isn't that weird? isn't this stupid?" like it's a marvel movie. Nothing can be taken seriously or be given weight. Even the central phrase of lyctorhood "One flesh, one end," returns in the epilogue to be made into an infantile sex joke. It's absolutely unbecoming of a FANTASY NOVEL that's trying hard to make you emotionally invested in these characters and this world especially. No one in Book of The New Sun, or Dune, (books that are SEVERELY more weird than what GIDEON was trying for) ever turns to the camera/reader and goes "riding worms? that's what SHE SAID! isn't this stupid? isn't it weird? Fighting with flowers? You've gotta be kidding me!" It's a fantasy novel!! fantasy!! and you're not as funny as pratchett or even HUSSIE so it just comes off like insecure unfunny DOO DOO ASS

Relationships that have real king/lionheart energy, that whole “I have sworn myself wholly to you, I am your sword arm, I am your dog” to someone else’s “you are the one person in this world I can rely on, and I am both bolstered and burdened by your absolute faith in me” vibe, but it’s in circumstances that are like. so low stakes. Manger of a movie theater/the one usher who doesn’t smoke weed at work.

i feel really bad for mitski and the fact that the audiences who keep showing up to her shows don't have enough respect for her, or her craft, that they're calling her "mommy" and other names she doesn't like. they're interrupting her performance to be, overall, inappropriate towards her. to the point where she has stated multiple times that she doesn't like it, even calling out this behavior during her shows, and it won't stop. i don't know what this is a product of (poor concert etiquette, maybe?) but i find it veryyyy unfortunate

For those who don't know, Rafah Crossing is closed. Meaning Palestinians in the Gaza Strip are technically not allowed to go into Egypt through Rafah Crossing (with exceptions, like holding a foreign passport) so in order to evacuate, Palestinians need to bribe Egyptian border security officials. The standard price used to be about $5000 - 7000 per person but some Palestinians have been told to pay $10,000 per person just to cross the border, forget other expenses like food and boarding.

For a group of people who are enduring genocide and the complete destruction of their homes that money is impossible to raise without the help of fundraising. That and the collapse of the UNRWA is the reason you're seeing so many Gofundmes nowadays. The entire aid system is gone with the exception of local aid organisations that have limited reach.

So if you see a credible fundraiser, please at the very least share it so it can reach more people. This list by @el-shab-hussein is a good place to start.

Btw Israel let Palestinians celebrate not one (1) holiday in peace. They didn’t grant Christian Palestinians access to Jerusalem on Palm Sunday, they actively attacked families who were already starving at Iftar during Ramadan, and now there are several reports of families being killed on Eid al-Fitr—a sacred multi-day holiday practiced by lots of Arabs. It breaks my heart imagining the Palestinian families in Gaza right now, most of whom are spending Eid mourning loved ones who were taken by Israeli strikes. Most of us will never understand the sheer magnitude of that pain.
