"free palestine" again and again until my voice is gone and even then i will etch it into every surface my hands can reach. death to the west and death to zionism and death to capitalism and death to racism and death to colonialism.
Me (a feminist) : women are always told to cover their shoulders and knees because of men becoming aroused, but really its just a way to control women because no one actually finds knees/shoulders attractive.
Me (a gay) : *see's one female knee or shoulder* H O L Y S H I T I M G A Y *has a heart attack*

Tedros’ shoulders are broader and his lips are thinner. His hair looks more brown and his laugh is deep in his chest, ratting the bones of those around him. He appreciates sunsets and sunrises; He gets up early every morning to watch them. He eats more— a meal fit for a king is an actual thing (kings tend to eat a lot). His clothes show less sweat stains are more grass and dirt stains; being the hardhead that he is he can’t help but get really into sparring lessons. His footsteps are lighter and his voice is deeper. His eyes somehow kept their unreal blue pigment and his teeth remain sparkling white. He blinks more. Each passage of thick eyelashes is a slide throughout his life and it’s all one big motion picture he can’t put into words. Still arrogant with others and handsy with his love, Tedros hasn’t really changed much.
