When you watch videos coming out of Gaza, you can almost always hear a buzzing sound in the background. This sound has been keeping Gazans under constant anxious state for almost 20 years.
The sound you hear comes from surveillance aircrafts that roam the skies of Gaza with three main purposes: specific strikes, guiding missiles and the obvious, tracking every move of the people in Gaza.
People call it الزنّانة (zannana) which is attributed to the sound it makes that is similar to the buzzing noise of mosquitoes.
The use of the Zannana by Israel has been ongoing for many years leading up to the current aggression and it is constantly going for 24 hours of the day nonstop. People have always reported suffering from insomnia, being anxious all the time because of the ongoing noise, inability to study and focus and a complete loss of privacy and feeling of safety. It has a foreboding effect on people given its historical use in Gaza.
Israel uses this surveillance aircraft to gather information and determine targets, while placing the people of Gaza in a constant state of distress. This is of course just another piece of Israel's ongoing psychological war that it imposes on Palestinians every day of their lives.
When you know you're being watched by an aircraft that has resulted in killing over 2000 people between the years 2000-2022 in Gaza, imagine the constant state of horror you'll be experiencing on a daily basis as it buzzes around you while you make your breakfast, go to school, or even try to go to sleep.
I wish people could understand that Mel CAN be a manipulator and an empathetic person, one does not cancel out the other, and the fact you guys keep trying to say for others to, "understand the complexity of the character" but KEEP IGNORING IMPORTANT CHARACTER FACTS its frustrating.
Mel is a good manipulator bc she understand others, her empathy is used to work towards others feelings, and THAT'S why she can manipulate Jayce so well, because he is ALWAYS open with his feelings, he always feels the need of aproval, and Mel is always there to say what he wants to hear, and I swear if I see someone else saying "Jayce wanted to be manipulated" I will jump (Wth is WANTING to be manipulated??? manipulated is doing something for others want, not yours).
This is not only throwing away ALL of Jayce's arc and character through the window, but is ALSO throwing away all Mel's character, she IS A FCKIN GOOD MANIPULATOR THATS WHY SHE IS THE FOX AND NOT THE WOLF AND HER ARC IS ABOUT TURNING INTO BOTH NOT JUST BEING ONE
And that's why they couldn't work out, they were meant to help eachother grow in character, yes, but not to grow together (Not criticizing people who ship them). But thats why all their scenes together just doesn't feel right, Mel is always surprised when Jayce comes to her seeking confort, yes, she can care about him, she can love him, her manipulating him doesn't mean she can't love him (after all she is the daugher of Ambessa, she only knows this about love, she doesn't think its something so big), and at some point she could have loved him romantically, but deeply? I don't think she knew Jayce deeply enough to really love him that way. The same with him.
Mel used Jayce, Jayce used Mel (In ways he probably didn’t even know, he used her for confort, for being a safe haven for him, also, maybe thats why HE apologized in the end to her, I will probably analyze this scene better later), Mel used Jayce for all her purposes and thought it was doing good for him too, after all, who wouldn't want a chair at the council sit? With all the investments and privilegies. Mel did have good intentions all the time, but she doesn't come front with people to ask what they want, she assumes, she do, she never asks, she tries to never show weakness but she always will show compassion, in many ways she is like her mother.
Mel is a interesing character because she commits bad things with good intentions, not noticing she is also hurting others, she does to others what she would want for herself, but never actually asks herself if others would REALLY want that. In top of that, she IS classicist towards Viktor, the same way all characters of piltover are in one way or another, this is embedded in their heads internally and sometimes they don't even know, the way she ignores him and is just going towards Jayce's aproval to get aproved the hextech weapons, the way she looks at him with arrogance, she looks down on him.
The thing with Arcane characters, is that most of them have more than one facet, they wont fit perfectly into the "good" or "bad" person, and I really wish Mel's character to not be boiled down into just "did nothing wrong ever" or "Girl character that stayed bettwen my ship"
Anx and Duck in a School AU!!!!
Duck Sans (aka ADHD sans) is made by gudulle_Vinyls on tik tok
Friendly remider: this doesn't have to be a direct representation of Anxiety and ADHD. I just thought that this situation I have experienced at school fits their character and I just wanted to express it through them...
So I hope you enjoy :D
The strike is ending soon, but I’m still gonna reblog posts about Palestine. I am hoping you guys will do the same.
The fight is long I know, but let’s not give up now. We’ve made big steps with the ICJ. It’s not quite a ceasefire yet, but it’s a start.
Lets not make the Palestinian lives a trend
(How to help) <- check and reblog this post :D thanks!
If you are on the side of Israel I want you to reflect yourself. Why is Netanyahu doing this? I know your history. Jews did not have a place to call home, but is taking someone elses home really the answer?
Take a look at yourself and why everyone hates Israel so much. If I can do it for my own country so can you.
Ask yourself why does the IDF (Israel Defense Force) use white phosphorous, a weapon that burns from skin to bone.
Why do they keep the occupation and Israeli settlers around the land that does not belong to them?
Why do people who live in Israel are REQUIRED to join IDF. The army. As Israel is using their citiziens as meat shields. Friends in IDF have fought and died- and for what? Stealing peoples land? Killing citizens?
The ones who dictate what 'warcrime' is, are the winners of war.
Also for the ones who are spreading awareness, don't give up! You are doing great!
Don't give in to the face of despair, people who've been doing this since 1948 to 2023 should feel proud that they are fighting for the right thing. Even if it's small. Even if you start JUST NOW. You are doing what most people would never do.
There are still people who refuse to educate themselves.
There are still people who think that peoples lives are political.
My country had done at least 4 genocides (Papua, Maluku, Timor Leste, and the 1965s genocide) and no one spoke of it. No one heard of it.
Because all of us are censored, we are not allowed to criticise politicians. And if we do people ignore it. I was born in a culture of fear of saying the wrong thing.
Do you understand? YOU have the power to do the right thing. YOU are using your voice for the right thing. You are calling out war crimes when you see one. Something like this I would never even believe to see in my life time for other countries! So do NOT give up!
If no one speaks about Palestine then what hope do I get for my country?
For Palestenians, Papuans or anyone who is in war I LOVE YOU. I hope you stay warm, I hope you and your family have enough food. I hope you recieve any donations. You have the right to be angry, scared, you deserve freedom. The world. You deserve your land to not be taken by murderous politicians.
For Timorese, Moluccas and people who have died in Palestine vs Israel war, or any kind of conflict. I am sorry. May you rest in peace. People will fight for the ones who live. Your death will not be in vain.
Thanks for taking your time reading through all this.
