If being cisgender is so natural, why do you have to maintain its stronghold on the culture and the world? If it’s so natural, why must it constantly be enforced? Why are you so threatened?

Unless…

Gisèle Pelicot has made a statement leaving the court:
Her voice did break at a couple of moments but she was clear and composed. Apologies for clumsy translation:
"It is with profound emotion that I speak to you today. It was a very difficult ordeal...

After 426 days, you are either against genocide or pro-genocide; nothing in between. It’s not complicated. The Israeli government is committing genocide against Palestinians in Gaza loud and clear.

This dude came in, browsed the Palestine display forever, and bought Against Erasure and was like I HAVE TO BUY THIS MY FAMILY IS IN IT i was like WHAT and he showed me two photos. He is sending it to his grandma. Books fucking matter. Archivists matter. Creating photos matters.

Child deaths in wars:

Iraq: 3,100 in 14 years.
Syria: 12,000 in 11 years.
Yemen: 3,700 in 7 years.

Ukraine: +520 in 2 years.

Palestine: +20,000 in 1 year.

Does the world condemn the killing of children or is it complicated when it is Middle Eastern children?

As a kid, I wondered how Germans allow the Holocaust to happen. In the past year I have heard why:

“I am too busy”
“I don’t want to lose my job”
“Both sides are bad”
“Protesting won’t do anything”
“It’s not my issue to speak about”
“I don’t want to lose my friends”

In a heroic move, Gisele Pelicot fought to make public the videos of her unconscious rapes at the hands of over 50 men and won. She wanted the public “to look rape straight in the eyes.” Shame, she said, must change sides —from the victims to the perpetrators.

Police found more than 20,000 videos and photographs of Gisele drugged and being raped by various men on her husband’s devices in a folder titled “Abuse.”

On Friday, the judge complied with Gisele’s demand and showed the evidence “necessary for the manifestation of the truth.”

12 rape videos and 10 photos were shown over the courtroom’s three flat screens and projected into the overflow room for members of the public while the perpetrators in the videos sat in shame watching their own despicable criminal acts being exposed.

I think most people have forgotten the genocide in Gaza

If you haven't forgotten, leave a comment so I can see you

[Wizard_bisan1 @wizardbisan]

In a normal world, today 630,000 students from Gaza are supposed to start their educational year, but in the genocide era, today they lost the second educational year, and instead they are waiting in the water, food and aid distribution lines.
Gaza, September 2024.

“I have seen men survive diseases that women do not because of the care that women caregivers provide to their male partner when they are sick-I have only seen that happen once or twice for a female patient being taken care of by a man when she is sick.”

My jaw is on the floor.
