Platforming Palestinian Joy Is Just As Important As Sharing The Suffering They're Enduring During This

platforming palestinian joy is just as important as sharing the suffering they're enduring during this genocide. despite continued displacement and bombardment, you cannot steal their joy and spirit. happy birthday to this sweet baby 🖤🇵🇸 may they grow up to see a free palestine

edit: @saffronlesbian made a video description for this post!!

[vd: a screen recording of a tweet from the 20th of April 2024 with 2.5 million views, from Ruhi @/ruhi_hi. the caption reads, "This video of this little Palestinian angel celebrating his bday in a refugee camp" followed by three emoji of a smiling face with teary eyes. the video clip is 11 seconds long and shows a one-year-old baby seated on the sandy ground, smiling hugely and clapping his hands while people sing to him from offscreen and a large cake is placed in front of him. stuck into the top of the cake is a decoration that reads "happy birthday" in english. the video has the tiktok handle @/ibrahim.jamal99 visible in it. /end vd.]

Why can't I do that too :(

(Also, why the hell am I getting so many bot follows, I have to keep blocking them like bugs)

I went to super con and met Dante Basco, we took a picture and he signed my funko pop with the only line Blue Spirit ever said (expecting someone else). My dad paid so yay. Also btw on the left that is my dad's hand on my brother's shoulder, not Dante's, it just looks a little odd in the pic.

Also some random human at the super con in lawton asked if I was pride all the way, I said sure and they said they had a pin for me, they proceeded to take a pin off their jacket and gave it too me.

I also bought a Charlie pin from hazbin hotel and a cool framed beaded charizard, and one other thing that is awesome, but must not be know by one specific person.

Please note that while what they said is based on a real quote, these participant characters are entirely fictional and not based on anyone real.

Why is it always ‘queer people are projecting their identities onto characters’ and never ‘straight people are presuming that their identity is the default’?

And despite all this shit, Biden is the best option we have for president, and if I could vote I would vote for him even though I despise him, but I effing hate Trump. It is so sad that right now we just have to hope we don't get Trump; anyone but Trump. Originally Biden seemed like a decent guy but supporting Isreal is unexceptable. I wish we could just redo the primary election.
