Bridgerton fans are so dumb. Why are y’all on TikTok making fun of Rege for not returning to the show that would not only side line him, but also let him be subject to YOUR racism??? Be freaking fr

Some of y’all don’t realize how POWEFUL of a demigod that Annabeth is. It took until the third book of hero’s of Olympus for me to realize that Annabeth didn’t have the advantages that other demigods have, their powers. She’s the only member of the prophecy seven that doesn’t have any supernatural abilities. In fact the only magic item she did have, her invisibility hat, was taken away. That girl went into her solo quest with no powers, no magic, and a fucked up ankle, yet she still came out on top and secured the Athena Parthenos. (Not to mention she was facing her biggest fear and the direct source of her childhood trauma) anyway annabeth solos, I love my girl.

I am now very sad because of what gofundme did to me. I cannot get the money after you all helped me and my family and we were close to getting out of here and going to a safe place.

These writers are racist af, George wrote Laena and her daughters with strong personalities and confidence. If you hadn’t read the books you wouldn’t understand why they’re so popular.
Laena’s sapphic relationship was given to a white woman.
Daemon fought for Laena’s hand, in the show she’s “second best” whilst he’s pining for his white niece. He then fucks said niece at her FUNERAL because black women don’t deserve love and respect.
Baela would’ve been an easy fan favourite, she’s the Arya Stark of HotD. Instead she has the personality of a cardboard box, reduced to nothing more than a background character. Her scene with Rhaenys was cut out because the writers don’t think of it to be of any importance.
Will we see Rhaena’s triumph as the last dragon rider until Daenerys Targaryen? She’s HotD’s Sansa, underestimated but comes out winning. Difference is GoT laid the groundwork for Sansa, HotD on the other hand seem to forget Rhaena exists.
Every single decision made in regard to Laena and the Dragon Twins was built on anti black misogynoir.
THANK YOU! Let’s not forget the theory that Rhaenyra, Laena, and Daemon were their own little couple too, but they wanted to age up Rhaenyra and Alicent to queer bait in one episode 🙄. She also loves Rhaena and Baela to pieces. Rhaenys is also supposed to have dark hair, but they wanted to push the “Strong” boys narrative even though that’s not confirmed in Fire and Blood at all. And poor Nettles. The genius who managed to bond with one of the wild dragons, was taken under Daemon’s wing, and was just an overall badass has most likely been overlooked even though she is important to the story. Like stop with the 8-9 episodes, do right by these characters and the story, or just leave it alone. Those are the only options.

Most Afro-Palestinians in this tight-knit community came to the region as religious pilgrims during the British Mandate for Palestine, and many have been part of the Palestinian resistance movement since Israel’s establishment in 1948. Others arrived as volunteers with the Egyptian army to fight against Zionist militias taking control of historic Palestine during the Arab-Israeli war.  The community has played a pivotal role in the history of Palestinian resistance. Locals say that the first Palestinian woman to be imprisoned for a paramilitary operation against Israel was Fatima Barnawi, a Nigerian-Palestinian detained in 1967 for the attempted bombing of an Israeli cinema in West Jerusalem. Yet decades later, Afro-Palestinian youth continue to live their daily lives under Israeli control. At just 17, Abdallah’s cousin, Jibrin, has already been detained five times by Israeli forces, mostly over allegations that he threw stones at Israeli police and military officers. While he and his friends face the same harassment as other Palestinians, he said, they sometimes experience “double-racism” for both being Palestinian and having dark skin. “The soldiers are always cursing at me and interrogating me when I pass them. They try to provoke me so that I do something they could get me in trouble for,” Jibrin told Al Jazeera, noting that he has been beaten several times by Israeli police and soldiers during detentions. “Most of those in my generation have the same experiences,” he added with a shrug. “It’s routine.”

We told y’all as soon as they killed Laena that the HOTD writers were living out some weird fantasy and being antiblack. We’ve been telling y’all for MONTHS that the HOTD/GOT fandom was filled with a bunch of racist idiots. Y’all never listened. We voiced our concerns with Nettles in s2 and you called us everything but children of god. You also proved that not only can’t some of y’all read but that you have no comprehension skills and that Black ppl are an afterthought in your minds. There’s no way you didn’t know Nettles was Black when that’s quite literally the only way she looks in her fanart and how she is described in the book. It should not take Bethany having a racist experience for y’all to believe us. You can never shut up and listen. You have to run your mouths cuz you can’t fathom Black ppl existing anywhere.

You can’t kill their spirit âœŠđŸ»â€ïžâ€đŸ©čBeautiful smile đŸ„Č♄❀‍đŸ©č “There is no PaIĂšstinian house without cakes,” said Ahlam Saleh, who is forcibly disp\/laced herself. “The atmosphere of Eid existed before the war, and there is no joy now for Eid in light of the w\/ar.”⁠
.⁠
Inside tents where forcibly displaced Pales\/\/tinians are sheltering in Deir el-Balah, in the centre of the #Ga\/za Strip, a group of women are making traditional cakes for the upcoming #Eid holiday using supplies provided by charity organisations.⁠
.⁠
Despite the grim reality of the w\/ar, Ahlam said that through this initiative the group is “trying to create an atmosphere of Eid joy for children”.⁠
.⁠
Ahlam has lost multiple family members in the last six months of Israeli attacks, including children, cousins, an uncle and her brother-in-law. Several of her neighbours have also been kil\/led.⁠
.⁠
“I will miss a lot of people on the night of Eid,” she lamented.⁠
.⁠
Forcibly displaced children in Deir el-Balah said they appreciated the women’s efforts.⁠
.⁠
“They were trying to make us happy in school by creating [a holiday] atmosphere for the month of Ramadan and Eid,” said Rama Kassab, a young girl living in a makeshift shelter.⁠’”Source | @aljazeeraenglish
