“They call us now, before they drop the bombs. The phone rings and someone who knows my first name calls and says in perfect Arabic “This is David.” And in my stupor of sonic booms and glass-shattering symphonies still smashing around in my head I think, Do I know any Davids in Gaza? They call us now to say Run. You have 58 seconds from the end of this message. Your house is next. They think of it as some kind of war-time courtesy. It doesn’t matter that there is nowhere to run to. It means nothing that the borders are closed and your papers are worthless and mark you only for a life sentence in this prison by the sea and the alleyways are narrow and there are more human lives packed one against the other more than any other place on earth Just run. We aren’t trying to kill you. It doesn’t matter that you can’t call us back to tell us the people we claim to want aren’t in your house that there’s no one here except you and your children who were cheering for Argentina sharing the last loaf of bread for this week counting candles left in case the power goes out. It doesn’t matter that you have children. You live in the wrong place and now is your chance to run to nowhere. It doesn’t matter that 58 seconds isn’t long enough to find your wedding album or your son’s favorite blanket or your daughter’s almost completed college application or your shoes or to gather everyone in the house. It doesn’t matter what you had planned. It doesn’t matter who you are. Prove you’re human. Prove you stand on two legs. Run.”

* Israel says all Palestinians must vacate northern Gaza within 24 hours

* Israel says significant military operations will take place in Gaza City in the coming days and residents must move south

this is ethnic cleansing in full view.

and make no mistake this is done so when a literal massacre takes place within 24 hours, these genocidal mfs will throw up their hands and say “we warned them”

israel knows that this is practically impossible

this affects 1.1 million people

journalists are reporting civilians are fleeing on foot

and there are also those injured and terminally ill who are in hospitals and cannot leave

this is insanity

Today I learned that Kronk from The Emperor’s New Groove is canonically Jewish in the spinoff series.

Here’s the link to the whole challah recipe, before anyone asks: https://twitter.com/disney/status/1411022232445464585

Disney on Twitter

“Looking for a delicious treat? Try out Challah bread with this step-by-step recipe inspired by Kronk!”

Twitter

Blocking the haters who have opened up their assholes to express the wet fart of an opinion that Jews are an unrealistic addition to a children’s comic fantasy series whose major initial premise was a dude being turned into a llama ✌️

I would like to state that the Incan Empire lasted until the mid 1500s, and the Spanish Inquisition / expulsion of Jewish people from Spain and Portugal occurred in the 1400s, after which a contingent of migrants could have reasonably fled to the Americas on Portuguese trading vessels that were already operational in the region and moved to inland South America / Qusqu where the story took place.

Kronk CAN VERY WELL be not only Jewish but also a survivor of the Inquisition itself.

This is completely historically feasible and haters can eat my toes.

The Emperor’s New Groove movie had an electric floor waxer in it

The only problem I see here is that Kuzco’s not at the wedding….

FEMA is doing an emergency alert test on all TVs, radios, and cell phones on October 4, 2023, at approximately 2:20pm ET.

If you live in the US and you have a phone you need to keep secret for any reason, make sure that it is turned off at this time.

Yes, I’m doing this months in advance, and yes, my blog has very little reach, but I figure better to post about it more than less.

Please reblog and add better tags than mine, I’m bad at tags.

OCTOBER 4, 2023

TURN OFF YOUR OTHER PHONE AND DO NOT TURN IT ON AGAIN UNTIL YOU ARE ALONE AND SAFE BECAUSE THE ALARM WILL COME THROUGH AS SOON AS THAT PHONE IS POWERED ON.

AGAIN I REPEAT:

OCTOBER 4, 2023

THE ALARM WILL COME THROUGH AS SOON AS THAT PHONE IS POWERED BACK ON.

SO ONLY POWER IT BACK ON WHEN IT IS SAFE TO DO SO.

OCTOBER 4, 2023

If this doesn’t make sense, then good news it’s not for or about you but still reblog it because you never know who may need to know this.

Reblog and add more tags.

There’s just a whole lot of reasons someone may need to be aware of/prepared for this, so boosting

OKAY TO RB! 👍

My abuser just stormed into my fiance and i’s room and said he’s this close 🤏 to kicking Jameson and I out onto the streets. And I said again. You’d be kicking us out again. And said I still have the texts to prove he texted me that we had to leave last time. And he was like, that wasn’t me kicking you out. That was you causing problems for everyone in the house and you being lazy and awful and terrible so I dealt with it.

And it’s Like. I literally have his own texts, in his own words. And he’s still twisting the truth and rewriting reality 🙄.

He also said I better smarten up because while living here, I have access to my doctors. And while living on my own, I don’t.

So it’s literally, go along with his demands, and this hostage situation, and I’ll be able to live longer with access to my treatment as a terminally ill person…Or I move out as soon as possible again, and be mentally safe from his abuse…but physically unable to see my doctors, as a terminally ill person.

We have a place lined up for us to move to, in Kitchener ON, with our friend Kieran. But first month’s rent is $1000, and then we need money for gas to move our stuff back to Kitchener.

$0/$1200

Horrible fact of the day: Chevron just released a new boat fuel that WILL give you cancer.

Not “might”, not “could”, WILL. It has a cancer ratio of 1:1, as in, in a group of 10 people, ALL 10 would contract CANCER.

The EPA’s safety limit is 1:1,000,000 as in 1 in a million people get cancer.

The EPA approved it anyways. I am not joking. The EPA approved a boat fuel that has a near 100% chance of giving someone cancer. It has such a good chance of giving someone cancer that if you DIDN’T get cancer YOU WOULD BE AN OUTLIER.

Fuck the oil industries.

EPA Approved a Fuel Ingredient Even Though It Could Cause Cancer in Virtually Every Person Exposed Over a Lifetime

An EPA document shows that a new Chevron fuel ingredient has a lifetime cancer risk more than 1 million times higher than what the agency us

I bet if a mushroom could lap water out of your hand with a tongue that a gently drinking mushroom tongue on your hand would be the softest and gentlest thing.

jesus christ, i experienced brief but severe grief over not actually being able to experience this.

I think it would feel like a lizard tongue but I’ve never had a lizard drink out of my hand either, and thus the whole thing remains conceptually elusive.

this put such a vivid image in my head i needed to make it real as soon as i got home

This makes me indescribably overjoyed.

If you’ve ever had a bunny like you…. That’s what I’m thinking. Very soft. Very sweet and gentle

listen i know each actor brings their own spice to a role, but i just can’t take timothee chalamet’s wonka seriously 

where is the madness behind his eyes??? the malice??? the complete disregard for the laws of mankind and decency???

this man makes me fear that i’ll be shoved into a taffy machine at the slightest provocation 

as! he! should!

He’s young!! The movie is about him building up his empire to overthrow the chocolate mafia that runs the city. I’m pretty sure after a few desperate shenanigans he’ll develop the madness.
