i think the reason why the assassination of Julius Caesar is one of the funniest political assassinations is for this very simple reason:

1 guy stabs 1 guy: not funny. that's murder.

2 guys stab 1 guy: even less funny. that's two against one.

60 guys stab 1 guy: uproariously funny. why do you need so many guys.

“Gaza is not the most beautiful of cities. Her coast is not bluer than those of other Arab cities. Her oranges are not the best in the Mediterranean. Gaza is not the richest of cities. (Fish and oranges and sand and tents forsaken by the winds, smuggled goods and hands for hire.) And Gaza is not the most polished of cities, or the largest. But she is equivalent to the history of a nation, because she is the most repulsive among us in the eyes of the enemy – the poorest, the most desperate, and the most ferocious. Because she is a nightmare. Because she is oranges that explode, children without a childhood, aged men without an old age, and women without desire. Because she is all that, she is the most beautiful among us, the purest, the richest, and most worthy of love.”

— Journal of an Ordinary Grief - Mahmoud Darwish

EVERYONE CALL YOUR REPS/SENATORS TELL THEM TO SUPPORT THIS!!!!!

full fucking offence but for the past 70 days you all have literally seen israel attack hospitals time and time again, bomb residential buildings, flatten entire neighbourhoods, wipe out entire families, bomb places of worship, literally blow up schools, strike refugee camps, block food and aid trucks and cut fuel and water and cell communication off 2.8 million people......... and much more...

you've had the past 75 days of extensive documentation of our genocide. we have been screaming about it for the past 75 years!

you absolutely can no longer use the excuse of "I don't know enough". you absolutely cannot even lie about not being sure who the aggressor is. you absolutely cannot. we both know you're lying.

Every single odd number has an “e” in it.
