#the difference is where we were born

[reuna]

I was watching the snow outside and thinking of Palestine

If you lived here you'd see the pretty blues of snow and wintry skies The trees frosted and bare asleep, waiting for the new morning of a sun-dappled spring. If I were there my children wouldn't play in snow but in ashes, if they'd be playing at all Thousands in need of parental care Of loved ones destroyed The feeling of not being enough Amplified thousandfold. My home is shrouded in peace and quiet In gratitude I hold my children close, in desperate love. In a country advertising with Santa Claus The happiest place in the world Funding the genocide of families like ours. If you were here They'd probably be still alive. My children gone because of bombs or lack of insuline, And a world watching in silence as humanity is discarded as economically unviable.

#palestine #free palestine #gaza #free gaza #israel #israel is a terrorist state #israel is committing genocide #palestine strike art #genocide #poetry #poem #the contrast is striking #my brain trying to comprehend the dissonance #we're all humans #the difference is where we were born #unbearable #my post

what’s an identity card

its a colonial documentation system that states our palestinian identity and determines our residency and what places we can / cannot go.

there are 5 ID systems enforced by israel:

1. Gaza Strip ID: if ur a palestinian who holds this ID, you can’t live anywhere in palestine except gaza (i believe this has been in effect since 2007)

2. West Bank ID: if u hold this you can’t live anywhere but 40% of the West Bank due to military checkpoints and settlements (i have this ID)

3. East Jerusalem ID: if u hold this u can have access to most areas in palestine but israel can revoke ur access whenever they want if you live outside of jerusalem

4. israeli ID but held by palestinians: can access “israeli-only” cities but still cannot reside in most towns in israel

5. jewish/israeli ID: if u hold this ur free to live anywhere throughout “israel” . u can even live on the palestinian territories (60% of the West Bank) as a settler

#ask #the card has our name and date of birth and where we were born #we are also each given a different identification number #and each ID is a different colour. the west bank one that i have is green #palestine

I am actually. I am so emotional over the Salazar parents and I need to share this to tumblr too.

A lot of stories where the MC is adopted I feel. Either dismiss the biological parents and the impact they have on the kid's life, or makes them evil and abusive, framing the loss of the bio parents as a good thing, or at least something we shouldn't think about just look at this new family.

But Genrex doesn't do that. From the start, Rex wanted to find out more about his parents - it's one of his primary character motivations, next to helping people. He loves them, even though he doesn't know them.

And the more he finds out about them, the more he realizes they loved him. Rylander is consumed by guilt but as Rex's first connection to his pre-Event life, the first thing he does is hug him. And when he tells Rex about his parents, the two things Rex knows is that 1) they were scientists, and 2) that when he was in danger, they were desperate enough to use their secret, experimental technology to save him. Technology built from their desire to help the world, to save countless lives and end countless suffering.

And then. When he finds out that they were dead, he doesn't stop caring. It'd be so easy, too, to tie it up there - his parents were good people, he got his answer about them, the end. But they don't. He doesn't. Because the show is saying once again that they are his parents. He still calls them mom and dad, even as the show makes it clear Holiday and Six adopted Rex as their son. Even as the show even parallels Six and One with Rex and Six (and I will talk about that more later if I don't forget, trust me), to really drive home how much they're family. Rex even says he considers the two of them family, and later that he considers Noah, Claire and Annie family.

He has new family, the show tells us, but his old family still matters to him. He's upset that he never has the chance to meet his parents, that everything he hears about them, about his time with them, is secondhand knowledge. It tells us clearly that not only does Rex still love them, but that he still wants to know them. And everything we find out about them reinforces the love that they had for each other.

We see Abuela and the family in Mexico, who connect him to his birth family and tell him that he was so loved back then, and still is now. We see their office in Abysus through Rex's eyes. The picture of him and his dad on his desk. The drawing Rex drew, proudly pinned to the wall.

We see it in the familiarity of the drawing. That that robot, that build, was what Rex created when he was lost and scared and alone - that it was made to keep him safe. That it first appeared in his mind in a place he felt safe.

The show says, tenderly and softly, that the love is still there. That the fact these people died was nothing but a tragedy, that their love is a big part of what made Rex who he is today - that every molecule in his body is filled with their final gift to him. That every time he cures someone, every time he uses a build, every time he makes a machine - we see the love that they had for him.

And the way he quietly absorbs his father's face. The way he freezes and whispers "Mamá?" when he finds out Zag-Rs has their mother's voice. The fact that she even has her voice as a testament to Caesar's love, too - that it was meant to bring comfort and safety. The way Rex yells at Caesar when he finds out they have a family property, a connection to their past, the way he fights to protect it.

And, none of this takes away still from Six and Holiday being Rex's family too. None of this removes the work either set of parents did for him, the love either set has - the show says that it was unfair that the Salazar parents were lost. That Six and Holiday are not replacements, that they still love him as parents but play different roles in his life. They can not, and have no desire to, replace the Salazars. But Rex needs parents, he needs protectors, and so they will do what they can for him - at first out of necessity, to keep this kid they barely know safe, but then out of love. They aren't replacing what was lost, but are doing their best to do what Rex's bio parents would do. And they do mess up in it - they mess up in ways Rex's bio parents might not have. Six is clearly bad with showing affection, affection we saw the Salazars give Rex so easily, and Holiday is overworked and stressed constantly, sometimes breaking under the pressure and snapping at Rex and Six, things we never saw the Salazars do.

It's just. It's about how sometimes things will not be the same. They will be different. That doesn't mean the people you lost aren't still with you.

#This is also. Why I dislike the 'Rex was secretly made for the nanite experiments the accident was a lie' theory so much #Bc it assigns malice where the show says over and over again there was only love. #That this was only ever a tragedy of good people whose good intentions were manipulated and twisted. #And I think giving them something shitty to have done in the past especially goes against the message of the show's perspective on adoption #The family we choose is not always stronger than the family we are born to. Sometimes they are equal in different ways. #Rex's bio parents are gone but not replaced. They have also shaped who he is #Six and Holiday are just picking up where they left off. Because they have to. #Also I don't like the theory that Rex's parents are EVOs somewhere bc I think it diminishes the impact of the tragedy too. #I get. Wanting them to have a happy ending. But I think it's important to realize that this is the closest they can have to a happy ending. #Some things cannot be replaced. Or fixed. Sometimes life takes what we love and what loves us. And that is okay. #It is okay to be upset at that and it is okay to never fully move on. #'What about Caesar?' I have. Another post's worth of thoughts about him. #But I think he's also a character who is defined more by Rex by their relation and defined by the story by his guilt #I think he is the closest thing Rex has to a shitty bio family member and he is shitty in plenty of ways #But he's also a parallel to Rex in a lot of ways. He fails where Rex succeeds bc of it. #generator rex #genrex #Anyways. Sorry for the big post.

this was literally the only question i was curious about, thanks for asking that for me paimon

like fontainain people married other nationalities yeah?? how did they have kids if they were oceanids.. anddd umm if they could fuck normal humans wouldn’t that make the oceanid in springvale falling in love with a boy from mond a bit problematic lol especially since it’s no longer a fairytale but an actual thing that happened and we witnessed it last patch??

so it’s not the case and new oceanids are just turned into humans but wait!! so celestia allows that?? it keeps constantly happening but they’re not stopping it.. ok sure but also

i wonder how many generations of fontaine people will it take for them to realize that they have to sexually mate to create children now

#is this too weird to think about?? #like i wasn’t constantly thinking about this but the moment i saw the first slate during furina’s trial i was like so are fontainians.. #recycled oceanids or do they like propagate like bacteria #y’know.. as a biology major #my first thought was when a ‘human’ dies the oceanid that was them would loose their memories and be reborn as a new person #but then i thought like ok but they think they’re normal humans so wouldn’t it be weird to see other humans get pregnant conceive while #fontainians get their babies in mail?? and what if a fontainian is married to someone from a different nation.. this doesn’t make sense #and also another thought related to navia’s obsession with that cemetery #so umm y’know how we bury the dead in the ground as a way of returning them to where they came from.. and it is a natural process that.. #recycles nutrients and natural sources to the planet yeah? so wouldn’t make more sense for fontaine people who were born from water to #return to water as well?? i just find having a cemetery a bit strange in this case #i only had this thought bc silver and melus couldn’t be buried and i was like.. none of u should #it is their belief that they’re born from water and will naturally return to it from what i understood doing the first two chapters #this train thought is getting out if hand i need to stop #genshin impact #genshin spoilers #genshin navia #neuvillette #fontaine archon quest

i’m the anon who told you that you were warm 👋

you ARE warm. of course i’m still here. everyone, and that includes you!, deserves to have that recognition and appreciation :)

you provide such an amazing environment for me in this steddie life and beyond. i have a steddie sideblog and i love my little corner (nobody interacts with me but still)

SENDING HUGS TO YOU AND EVERYONE THAT READS THIS 🫂

let me tell you something about warmth

so last weekend my brother got married and my dad gave a little speech. he's good at that, talking in front of people without making it a big deal, drifting off and still making it seem like it's part of the speech.

and he said something that he told me a while ago already, something he would mention to me once or twice throughout all of my life. a sacred little something.

he said, "boy, this speech right here is one of three most important speeches i've held for you. you didn't hear the other two, but you can hear this one. the first was just when you were born, i was sitting on the balcony and talking to the stars, telling them about my little boy and all the things i wanted to to better than my parents did.

"the second one you didn't hear either because you were asleep and i was sat by your beside, telling you about your new baby sister (me, dio) and that you were a big brother now.

"and now, the third one, in front of all these people who love you and appreciate you. and i look into this room and feel a certain calm, knowing you have so many friends who have your back, and even more you couldn't invite, because if you were to invite everyone who loved you, we'd need a bigger room or three. and that's all a parent could want. there's barely more for me to say here, so let me say it in the words of men who are wiser than your old man.

"may the force be with you, and with your love. and may you live long and prosper, but most importantly, in love."

#that's the man who raised me #and no fight we have and no difference we have could ever erase the fact that he was sat there on the balcony and telling the stars about #his two little babies when we were born. nothing can erase that. i like to think sometimes that this is where i get my thing for the stars #it wasn't a big speech this one and it was said rather casually but it will live inside me for a while. so let me tell you about warmth. #and let me share it. some of y'all like the stories about my parents especially when they're connected to stars so <3 #i hope this makes someone smile. it makes me cry 🤍 #🤍

I had a vivid dream that I flew to some random theater to watch the new episode premiere already, though in reality there aren't even showtimes listed yet on the theater websites. I was one of the first people seated in that classroom-style theater too.

Like, because it was a dream there were of course elements of the episode itself that made me go "what??? Why did Ufotable change it so much???" but also "weeee, new content, this is exciting!" but mostly it was me after the premiere being like, "So I know I just hopped on a plane somewhere to come watch this because of course I would, but I don’t actually know where I am. Hmm. Am I on Shikoku?"

Priorities.

Clearly I am excited to get a new anime episode soon.

#it was like a redo of the last one #instead of an upper moon meeting Douma informed Daki and Gyutaro that they were fired #they were tiny children but instead of Ume it was chibi-Daki and Gyutaro was an alternate version of Gyutaro #who never caught an STD when he was born so he looked totally different #but still recognizably Gyutaro just a healthier version #and then we cut to Tanjiro who was actually a modern boy with a big family who fantasized about being a demon slayer #which was a shock but it got me looking around all the background and photos of their house for clues #and I spotted a photo of Mt. Tengu (also in Shikoku) and was like #oh is that where Tanjiro will get his real life training from Urokodaki? #so now that I am awake I am also like #OH YEAH #Ufotable Cinema is also located in Shikoku #i need to visit Tokushima someday #Mt. Tengu was on the brain only because I saw a photo of it again yesterday on a website I was checking #and I was in that photo #still I kind like that idea of Douma informing the children they're getting let go from the Upper Moons xDDD #he was so Douma about it too #Douma is always in character in my dreams #even that time I convinced him to eat a lemon to prove our friendship #today a shit post

not to be political but I've seen a lot of people saying that those who call Israel an apartheid don't know what they're talking about and um. As someone who has studied South African apartheid as well as grown up in a Jewish community. This claim has more merit than you think

#this post is brought to you by an article i read “debunking” the claim that israel is an apartheid and their “evidence” #included several policies that are the same if not more intense than apartheid era policies against black south africans #there are comparisons that hold weight here #although one thing i dont get and havent had explained to me yet. it looks to me as though both arabs and jews are indigenous to the region #in the way that both the hopewell culture and lenape people are indigenous to my state of pennsylvania #and thats a flimsy comparison i suppose since the hopewell culture (who lived here first chronologically) has died out #but anyway theres a case for indigeneity for both jews and arabs #its so silly to me that we dont consider both to be indigenous? yes many jews that came into israel in the early 20th century were #white europeans and carried the colonial baggage of that with them #but idk why its so hard to believe that an oppressed group can also be an oppressor?? like where's the intersectionality babes #anyway. the original point of this post was that maybe more of yall need to look into what south african apartheid was actually like #much like h*m*s leadership a lot of the ANC leadership was forced into exile and had to live and work outside of their country #(and this comparison is not perfect im aware. the tactics of the anc and h*m*s are totally different. however i think this comparison has #weight in that they are both one of the biggest names in opposition to the government. they do this in different ways at different levels o #intensity and violence. that is not to be ignored. but there are some comparisons that we can make and exile doesnt strike me as a bad one) #the bantustans in south africa were also constructed in a way that much like the west bank makes it highly difficult for an actual real #state to form #and the way that theyre set up invites puppet governments and corruption. this gives a major advantage to the apartheid state #id recommend reading Trevor Noah's Born A Crime if you havent #its a great introduction to what daily life in aparthid and after was like (its a memoir from about 1990-2005ish) #(apartheid was legally ended in 1994 but there are still remnants of it today and there were even more at the time of Born a Crime) #anyway these are my political thoughts of the day #edit: to my tangent about both groups being able to have some sort of claim to indigeneity. that in no way justifies any of the brutality #going on #i think its espeically cringe of israel to claim indigeneity and a sacred relationship with the land then create an environmental #catastrophe like they have in gaza. making the land unliveable is a bit of a perversion of the relationship you have with that land innit #in case it wasnt clear: ceasefire now and free palestine

[angelsdean]

my tags on my prev reblog re: dean's misinterpreted attitude toward monsters just got me thinking abt sam and the bloodfreak stuff in general and like, as we know a lot of the early seasons were framed in sam's pov so a lot of the time it' him who's feeling like a monster and projecting that onto others to confirm his own beliefs abt himself. like when he finds out abt john telling dean to kill him if he goes darkside sam suddenly is in agreement w/ john saying john's right and dean has to do it because dad said so !!! anyways that's just preface to what i want to say which is, sam isn't really a monster. what i mean is, he's not a monster in the inherent sense that he seems to think he is, and that's part of the reason why dean pushes back against the demon blood stuff because he knows sam can be saved and for dean his number one job is to save sam because the alternative is following john's order and that's something he just cannot do. so it makes sense that dean would do whatever it takes even if that's being a little mean or forceful (calling him a monster, echoing john by telling him not to walk out that door to give sam pause, forcing him to detox) because he does not want to kill his brother.

but anyways, sam is not a monster in the way he (and a lot of fans) thinks he's a monster. he was Not born a monster, it's not something that is intrinsically and inherently part of him. and i'd argue there's really nothing special or "chosen one"-esque about him (aside from the lucifer bloodline making him a better candidate for vessel purposes), he was just a regular baby who was dosed with demon blood, which in the text is treated as a drug / addiction. there was nothing special about any of the babies azazel dosed, they were just the children of people he'd made deals with. i think pretty much any baby (possibly even adult) who's fed demon blood from a powerful enough demon (like a Prince of Hell) would develop psychic powers. so it's not something completely out of his control that's turning him into a monster like a virus or a vampire / werewolf bite where he can't stop the progression. it's not happening to him he's making active choices to strengthen those powers and the more he feeds the more he wants it. everything w/ ruby is framed as him knowing he's doing something "wrong", the sneaking around, the lying. and i think dean's response is along the lines of "we need to get you help. we need to stop this because it's something that can be stopped. and if we stop it then i won't have to see you lose yourself or go too far. because if you go too far and start hurting people then i might have to kill you and i can't do that so please just let us save you." and i think that's fair. yes he and bobby maybe go about things the wrong way but i think it's born out of desperation. and also it's not a rejection of "this is who you are and we hate you for being a monster" it's "you're making choices that are leading you down a dangerous path and we're scared we may lose you so we're trying to stop you from going too far down that road."

like the end goal of all the bloodfreak stuff (ruby's end goal) was to free lucifer and freeing lucifer would mean sam becoming his vessel. they obviously don't know all that at the time, but in hindsight it's like, yea we should've curbed that bloodfreak stuff sooner. also heaven was telling dean to stop sam too and that he was going down a dangerous path and that if dean doesn't stop him they will (likely meaning death) so again, of course dean's gonna try to do whatever he can to stop sam even if it's by not great methods. (also heaven was playing him too bc they also wanted lucifer to be freed so that Destiny could come to pass)

#i've been thinking a lot abt the bloodfreak stuff lately #esp whenever i see takes that sam is like inherently different or monstrous #like he's really not ??? he was just a baby who was fed demon blood like many other babies #i read the bloodfreak stuff thru an addition lens moreso than a 'there's something inherently wrong w/ me' lens #which is also why the queercoded sam stuff often just. does not stick for me. like i Can see where ppl are coming from #but when you don't view sam's monstrous-ness as inherent then it's like. well it doesn't make for good parallels to queerness #whereas you take the shifter / dean parallels and it's like !!!! the shifter relating to dean and saying they're alike in many ways #that they were both born different and hated before they had to make themselves different and both just want someone to love them #and the shifter as dean earlier telling sam he's a freak he knows he's a freak and that everyone will always leave him #it's just different the way dean's ''freakness'' is framed as something inherent to him #while sam's is literally literally !! something that was Introduced to him after the fact not something he was born with #i'm sorry and this isn't sam crit it's more. interpretation crit ? #but also i think we can all have different and conflicting interpretations too bc sometimes i'm like yea. queer sam! #(tho often that has nothing to do w/ the monster-coding) #but idk i've just been thinking abt the bloodfreak stuff lately and how other characters reacted to it and how it's framed from sam's pov #vs deans and other characters. like sam seems to think there is something inherently wrong w/ him and so a lot of viewers believe it #but from outside perspectives dean and bobby and even heaven view it as an addiction and as choices sam's making that he can stop #vic.txt #mymeta #long post #sam studies

[true-blue-sonic]

There's really nothing to indicate that Silver is actually from Soleanna. He's just kinda associated with it like Sonic is with Green Hill. Even with Crisis City Silver mentions searching for answers and seemingly being pointed there plus the place is the epicenter of Iblis and its minions so it wouldn't make sense for survivors to be born there.

Within '06, there are hints that Soleanna New City became Crisis City, due to the similarities between the skyscrapes and allegedly also some advertisements/billboards. As for where Silver was born specifically, we have no evidence, as far as I am aware. His intro cutscene states the entire world was devastated before he was born, so I figure everywhere would be most unsafe for people to have children anyway. And Iblis is last fought by Silver in Flame Core, which appears to lay outside of Crisis City and is overrun by Iblis' minions too, so I do suppose Iblis and the enemies he creates can move over the planet? But there is indeed nothing concrete that indicates where Silver was born, assuming I am not missing something. I feel like we at most can tentatively say that the entire world was caught up in flames, following Silver's statements in the intro and the fact Iblis and his creations seemingly can move between areas without being confined to Crisis City specifically.

#silver the hedgehog #sonic 06 #and besides as far as we know Silver's history got rewritten entirely after '06 got erased from the timeline so I do not think it's- #-impossible that he was born somewhere entirely different before Rivals 1 #but also there there is nothing concrete to indicate that is the case or not haha #though tbf we don't know of most members of the cast where they were born anyway so it's not particularly strange we don't know it from- #-Silver either

the immaculate conception is an actual church holiday, held early winter. Christmas was moved to when it was as a colonialist effort to absorb and replace pagan winter solstice festivals

Yeah, December 8th, 9th or august 13th, but that was also only established, in like, the 1800s, and sure considering an omnipotent God, they could very much get someone pregnant on the 8th for them to give birth on the 25th, but neither the conception or the birth actually happened in December, it was all decided as to absorb existing pagan holidays, so does it really matter if I made a joke about carrying the second coming of Christ without considering the arbitrary dates assigned for Jesus to be celebrated, while using the one we are currently in that celebrates his death and rebirth, considering the fact that a second coming would be a rebirth and that's the whole point of the joke?

We're on Tumblr, it was a joke.

#Jesus wasn't born in December #they used different calendars #every holiday is an arbitrary date decide by a men who thought they had enough power over it to decide #when it reality they were just adapting existing pagan holidays #so do any of those dates really matter if we are discussing the actual person Jesus was in this hypothetical scenario #where he would be reborn? #i really need a tag for asks

In my opinion, Artemis and Angeline have very similar experiences of paranoia as a symptom of

And thus every single family vacation will have a like, medieval war general moment where you can watch them animatedly debate the merits and/or weak points of whatever barricade they've constructed in front of the hotel room door

#I jest but I HC that Artemis' paranoia somewhat genetically comes from his mother's side whereas his issues with dissociation and #reality assessment is more genetically on his father's side of the family #The twins occupy this weird space in the family where they were born after a lot of things exacerbating mental illness in the family were #less present than when Artemis was young due to the Fowl empire #like my personal version of this is watching my aunts' kids grow up in a house where they were diagnosed with autism and adhd really really #young bc their mothers work in early ed. and are really knowledgeable about how to apply that in their home so that they have the support #they need #and let me tell you watching young autistic relatives exist and interact w kids their age who are so much better #about including 'different' peers socially then when I was a kid? that is so fucking surreal #I am very much an 'autistic Artemis truther' and I know Fox has some posts about Tim being autistic too during an era of the Fowls where it #wouldn't have even been 'masking' to borrow a contemporary term so much as just learning Not to Act Fucking Weird ever and performing this #whenever there is someone else present #but to return to the point of this post Artemis and Angeline will see a 5-star resort with insane security and go 'what I'm hearing is that #when the sun sets we will be in the Purge' #Artemis' form of paranoia is fascinating because he experiences it in the 'struggles trusting people and can spiral and believe people are #out to get him and harm him when that is not realistically assessing a situation' but also has horrible risk assessment which is so realist #realistic lmao

not me sending myself to eeby deeby at 5 am by thinking too hard about chorus

#just thinking thoughts... #i mean what's new right. this hasn't happened in a while so it was about time #but i feel like a core concept of it is 'the endlings of suffering' #where you know. when awful things come to an end and things are better for the next generation #but there is that one last generation that gets to suffer. and like how do you cope with that #i think i feel this way a lot with art. born just too late to participate in the traditional manga publishing scene #born just too early to learn the ropes of digital art. #born just in time for everything i learned about traditional art to go obsolete as I'm trying to begin making a living #i feel this way about being transgender too #my generation was probably one of the last to not have trans people #we just didn't know that was a possibility and it wasn't normalized yet #but the internet exploded and became widely accessible to the youth and like. it's socially acceptable to be trans now #it's normal to have some trans kids in your class now #and i wouldn't want it any other way #but i just wish you know. WE got to experience that too. but we were just a bit too early. #we were the endlings of the long loneliness of being different from our peers and not knowing why #i dunno. it's like how my mom is in the last generation of people to have polio. #like there's a vaccine for it now and there are virtually no new cases #it's a specific kind of grief that's like. I'm so happy for you. i just wish i got to partake in it too #anyways. eating sand. everyone ignore me.
