I always default to the body as a metaphor for love
For the love I have always know has purely been body
I found it was a perfect description of love
And that is not entirely wrong
But its true in ways I have only recently discovered
The body is a beautiful place
All the parts working to stay alive
The marks of others burn like brands, the showings of my submittance
Yours are a reflection that my body is strong, marks I look at and smile from the memory
I wake up from nightmares that were the sounds of their footsteps
You lure me asleep through your heartbeat
I try and connect what I though was love and what love actually is
I cant
They are such separate entities
You are the dark humor, beautiful souled, complex, warm, wonderful person I’ve fallen for
Each future plan I can imagine has you in it
Even each step in my walk
You are in it
In my mind
What a place to be in
I love you more than words even have the capability of expressing
Each sunrise is a reminder that we are here
Human
Alive
Breathing
You have taught be to be grateful for that
So love
Lets make it to sunrise together, in fact
Let’s make it for so so many more

I want to see them
For the first time, researchers have found evidence that underwater ecosystems have pollinators that perform the same task as bees on land.
Just like their terrestrial cousins, grasses under the sea shed pollen to sexually reproduce. Until now, biologists assumed the marine plants relied on water alone to spread their genes far and wide. But the discovery of pollen-carrying ‘bees of the sea’ has changed all of that.
Over several years from 2009 to 2012, researchers from the National Autonomous University of Mexico filmed the spring nocturnal wanderings of crustaceans among beds of turtle seagrass, Thalassia testudinum.
Looking through the videos, they spotted more invertebrates visiting male pollen-bearing flowers than those that lacked pollen – just like bees hovering around pollen-producing plants on land.
“We saw all of these animals coming in, and then we saw some of them carrying pollen,” lead researcher Brigitta van Tussenbroek told New Scientist.
The concept was so new, they invented a new term to describe it: zoobenthophilous pollination. Before that, researchers had never predicted that animals were involved in pollinating marine plants.

I don't think people truly understand the gravity of Rafah being bombed.
There is nowhere left to go.
The lowest cost is $5,000 USD to flee to Egypt. There has been people paying over $10,000 USD.
That is the only option
Pay or die.
Rafah was the only place in Palestine promised not to be bombed. That promise is broken.
1.5 million people have nowhere to go!
