Rings of Power is a vibe tbh. Entirely accurate? Ofc not. Kinda hard when you’re covering stuff spread over 2000 years min. But it’s still great and a super fun way to bring my family into Pre-Lotr stuff.

S1 took a while to grow on me but S2 was amazing. Loved it.

Cutesy meme because the power of friendship.

absolutely criminal how falling into bad habits is the easiest thing in the world while developing positive habits feels like fighting a literal war

Important developments concerning Sudan

the Guardian

Sudan's military rulers and opposition reach power-sharing deal

Rule will rotate between civilian and military members of governing council

Now speaking as an Arab born in an Arab country who's grown up hearing about Arab politics my entire life, this is far from a good place to land. The military will almost certainly continue their fascist ways and people will still get killed. No talk of women's rights, no talk of an end to anti-blackness (which was serious enough for a genocide), no talk of restoring the Internet in these negotiations and discussions. This is still an awful situation for the Sudanese people and they are risking their lives, bodies, and mental health for their rights and their children's rights. Please continue donating to their emergency medical aid gofundme. It's been six months and the money still hasn't been fully accumulated to meet their goal.

If you disagree with something I said or have something to add, I would gladly listen if you are Sudanese (particularly Black Sudanese) or come from another Arab and / or African country who's experienced something similar.

we need to be weirder & so so earnest now more than ever
