Getting An A In IGCSE History Was Not On My Bucket List This Year Cus I've Never Been Good At History

a man self immolated in front of the israeli embassy in washington dc yesterday. not just any man. an active member of the us air force. he live streamed his death, and said that he refused to be complicit in a genocide any longer. he said that compared to what palestinians were facing every day, setting himself alight was nothing.

let me reiterate. an active duty air force member burned himself alive because he was so disgusted by what the us government was openly supporting. he live-streamed his own suicide, so the whole world could bear witness as a man in his military uniform set himself on fire to protest his government’s complicity in the horrors that we have all been forced to watch happen in real time. he became a new horror. footage of the immolation blurs him out the moment the fire catches, but you can hear him. it is over in seconds, really, but you can hear him screaming. he shouts “free palestine” until his body physically cannot make any sounds other than guttural screams of agony. and then he falls silent. a police officer arrives and points a gun at his still burning body, shouting at him to get down on the ground. and it is over.

his name was Aaron Bushnell. he was twenty five years old. and he isn’t here anymore because the political ruling class has decided that genocide is perfectly fine as long as it preserves imperialism. in the coming days, people will try to discredit him. to say that he was mentally unstable. they will try to bury his actions to save face and defend israel’s propaganda. do not let them. aaron knew what he was doing. he knew what he was doing when he put on his military uniform, set up his twitch stream, and made his final walk up to the embassy. he knew what would happen to him when he flicked that lighter. do not let them forget. aaron’s blood is on the hands of the political ruling class.

The first one out of frame just says "lesbian" that's crazy

It's bad when you know your crush doesn't like you, but it's worse knowing he has a crush on your very pretty friend.

When it's during one of the most important exam season of your life but you found out your friends might not actually like you, the person you've really liked for over a year has a crush on one of your friends, your family still thinks you're a bitch because you don't know how to express yourself, and now you don't even know if any of this studying is worth it anymore.

there's a year 7 girl at my school who has the biggest James Potter vibe and is kinda infuriating (she also has a pair of really beat up red converses)

I honestly didn't know that some people weren't taught about the Palestine and Israel conflict in school. I'm not even kidding.
