ICJ Hearing Updates by @totallyseiso
(hopefully these are the most recent rbs of each, in the relevant order. if not, please feel free to offer corrections. it was a pain in the ass trying to read them in order/backwards because of the weird way reblogs and archives work. i'm struggling with the earliest days, when seiso wasn't using the reblog chains so if you have better links please send)
Tumblr media
Intro
We'll start here, with the thread of who's slated to present
Then we can go to the tweets where the PM of Israel preemptively rejects the ICJ (reblogged from @papasmoke)
Not exactly the ICJ hearings, but the US calling for ceasefire ASAP after rejecting ceasefire resolutions.
Why Israel tends to kill more women and children than is normal for these situations. (reblogged from @tamarrud)
Updates
I feel like I'm missing something here, this is announcing the end of the first segment on the 20th
Just the fact that Saudi Arabia presented at all (lol)
Mention of looking forward to Ireland
Netherlands
Belize
End of the first 10 speakers
Day 3, Columbia, Cuba, Egypt
US (post 1) (post 2)

Day 14: Cooking/Sharing Food
Warnings: none
Rating: T
Pairing: Boyd x Tim
Boyd is categorically unable to sleep past sunrise.
It’s a habit he had before Kuwait, but it got drilled into him well and good in the army. Sunlight bleeding through his eyelids is enough to get him rolling out of bed, joints creaking, ready to start the day.
Tim is the same way. He will beat Boyd to it, most days, his insomnia driving him from their bed before the sun even begins to turn the sky pink. Most of the time, Boyd will find him downstairs, perched on the counter in the kitchen with a cup of coffee in one hand and his phone in the other, the glow from the screen illuminating his face.
The routine they fall into is a comfort to the both of them. Or, Boyd likes to think it is. They don’t talk about it. Boyd doesn’t need to ask why Tim is up, and Tim hasn’t ever felt the need to fill a silence with small talk. But Boyd will putter around the kitchen, moving around Tim, as he gathers what he needs to make breakfast.
Tim won’t stick around for french toast or omelets – Boyd learned that early on. Anything that requires a plate, that ties him down to one spot, he balks at. He’ll sit with them if they all manage to be together in the house for a meal, but Boyd noticed quickly how his shoulders would hunch if they put a plate in front of him, how he would go quiet, answering questions with monosyllabic, flat responses if he answered at all.
(He’s apologized for it, more than once, though he mostly cut it out after Raylan sighed and said, “Tim, stop saying you’re sorry for shit that ain’t wrong.”)
It took a little trial and error, but Boyd’s figured out what doesn’t trigger that withdrawn, shrinking response.
“Morning,” Boyd says when he comes into the kitchen, and Tim glances up from his phone, offering Boyd a soft little smile. He lets Boyd kiss his cheek, and lets Boyd tilt his chin up for another kiss, too, brushed gently across his mouth.
“Morning,” Tim murmurs, and then nudges Boyd toward the stove with one bare foot, his smile going a little cheeky.
“So demanding.” Boyd squeezes his thigh before turning away to turn the stove on to heat. “Do you have anything in particular you’d like this morning?”
“We still have that salsa Raylan picked up in Louisville?” When Boyd hums in affirmation, Tim nods at the fridge. “Then, if you’re taking requests, breakfast burritos?”
Boyd tugs the refrigerator door open and scans the contents with a critical eye. “Well, I suppose I can make that happen for you,” he says, and gets a quiet thanks, Boyd in return. 
Tim’s request is an easy one, and cooking is relatively mindless. After a few minutes, Boyd hears Tim slide off the counter (hears him, he knows, only because Tim wanted to be heard), and then there’s a cup of coffee set down next to him, close enough to know that it’s his but out of the way of where he’s cutting up an onion and a bell pepper. Tim kisses the back of his neck, and, despite himself, Boyd feels a little shiver run down his spine. Tim isn’t casual with affection – not often enough for any of them to have gotten used to it, at least.
Tim lingers, and Boyd can feel the way the lips pressed to the back of his neck curve into a smile. “Maybe later,” he murmurs, one hand coming up to rest lightly on Boyd’s hip. “Feed me first.”
“Demanding,” Boyd repeats, but his voice is dripping with so much damn affection that the word just comes out fond. “I do hope you’re aware that the boys are going to have our asses for not including them in this.”
Tim laughs under his breath, squeezing Boyd’s hip before he slinks away, levering himself back up onto the counter – a little closer to Boyd and the stove, this time. “Not my fault they’d rather stay in bed until someone drags them out,” he says, before taking a sip of his coffee. Then, with a little bit of a softer voice, he adds, “We’ll set some aside for them, yeah?”
He almost sounds reluctant, but Boyd knows the hesitancy in his voice isn’t from any sort of true selfishness – Tim’s not used to having attachments, other people in his life he feels the need to look after. It’s a new feeling. It’s a vulnerable feeling.
“We can do that, baby.”
It’s impossible to miss the way Tim twitches, his bare toes curling, his knuckles whitening around the mug in his hands. It’s muted surprise, carefully controlled, and Boyd knows he only sees as much as he does because Tim is home, safe, with just about as few guards up as he ever has – which is the only reason Boyd used the endearment in the first place. It’s not for anyone else but them.
“Never thought I’d like that,” Tim says after a noticeable pause, and Boyd suspects it goes a little past never thought I’d like it, maybe more towards never thought I’d have it. “Like it from you, though.”
Boyd thinks he can be forgiven for the way he pushes the pan back, barely remembering to flick off the burner before turning to Tim, stepping neatly between his knees and reaching up to cup his face with both hands. “Baby,” he murmurs, but Tim is the one who drags him in, abandoning his coffee so he can fist both hands Boyd’s shirt and kiss him, hard, licking into his mouth like he’ll be able to taste the word there.
Two hours later, Raylan stumbles into the kitchen to find the two of them sitting on the floor – both of them missing their shirts and sporting not a small number of love bites over the necks and shoulders – eating cold breakfast burritos.
He opens his mouth, pauses, and then shakes his head. “Did one of you make coffee before all this–” He waves his hand vaguely. “Devolved?”
“Raylan,” Boyd says, his voice gently chastising. “Whatever aspersions you might cast on my character, I do happen to understand that coffee always comes before sex.”
“Menaces,” Raylan grumbles under his breath.
He still ducks down to kiss both of them on the tops of their heads before pouring himself a cup of coffee.

I'm the anon that u called Islamophobic. I think I didn't get my point across. Mena is notorious for having no democracy or electing fundamentalist gov. This isn't being Islamophobic this is a fact. I don't think Palestinians will want to live in peace after what israel put them through especially kids from Gaza.
Creation of Israel was to make it a Jewish state not a secular state. Makes no sense for them to change law of return. Especially with Netanyahu n abbas to find a middle ground
Its naive of u to think that it won't start a Civil War like in Lebanon. They don't like each other. Either way there will be genocide of Either group. Forcing a one state solution is not feasible,unless u want a blood bath. Ut will be 1947 all over.
I'm not Islamophobic like u make me out to be. I live in a country that feeds the same kind of propaganda. What israel is doing in wrong. They shouldn't have been making a state there. Things happened has happened.
Both of the leadership in very corrupt. This is the reason I support 2 state solution so that they don't kill each other. Or otherwise jews just go back where they come from Europe or Mena wherever.
Also river to sea is a call for genocide. It was used by Israeli gov and also Palestinians. U want to mean it something but it isn't.
I hope there will be peace someday without a genocide
Anon, read these words carefully: you ARE being Islamophobic and racist when you say these things.
MENA is notorious for actually having their governments collapsed by the West and then benefiting from the chaos. That's what happened in Egypt and Kuwait and Lebanon. They never let elections stand as the people want them. You are saying that "MENA people don't know how to pick governments or they pick a Muslim one." Like dude. There is currently no fundamentally Islamic government anywhere in the world. It doesn't exist. Like who are you referring to when you make this statement? If I say "Ukrainian people don't know how to elect a good government, so Russia should have Ukraine" it would be an ASS BACKWARDS STATEMENT. YOU, non-MENA individual, think we don't know how to pick or elect a government. So what if it's an Islamic government? IF THAT'S WHAT THE PEOPLE CHOOSE FOR THEMSELVES WHAT IS THE ISSUE? You're Islamophobic and racist because you believe that people in the MENA region are not capable of making decisions for themselves or capable of being civilized.
"Well I don't think that Palestinians will want x..." Respectfully, what you think means ABSOLUTELY FUCK ALL IN THIS SITUATION. You are not Palestinian, you don't talk to Palestinian or even Middle Eastern people apparently, and your response is "Well they already took the land so let them keep it." No. Fuck you. It's our land and we want it back. Because by your logic "well Franc took Algeria so they should just be fine with it". Like you fundamentally do not believe brown people have the right to their own land and to self determination. If Russia took a portion of Ukraine, you would never say "oh just let Russia keep it what happened already happened" because they're white.
The West fucks up the MENA region and then tells brown people to deal with it. Lebanon was created to make an Arab state for Christians so they would leave Syria. Then the same Western countries put a Muslim government in place TO MAKE SURE THE MIDDLE EAST WASN'T AT REST. THE WHITE WORLD BENEFITS FROM THE DESTABILIZATION OF THE MIDDLE EAST. SO THEY CASUE IT THEMSELVES.
Israel shouldn't exist. And God willing within our lifetimes it will cease to exist. And I mean that in the same way the Soviet Union ceases to exist. Not as a call for killing, but the dismantlement of an oppressive political system of ruling. I want the state of Israel to disappear, not Jewish people.
And finally, from the river to the sea was a slogan made by Palestinians. Israelis stole it, like they stole everything else. Palestinians say it with one meaning, and your refusal to accept the meaning from the creators of the phrase speaks to the internalized bigotry within you. When people say "Black Lives Matter" do you feel threatened? Do you think it is a call to end white lives? Do you burn with the need to say "well ALL lives matter"?
Your argument is based in the fact that you see brown people as incapable of self governance, that because they were massacred in '48 they don't deserve their own land, that everyone is bad so Palestinians should shut up and be happy with a two state solution and that's the best we can do. You are a racist and you are Islamophobic, and I will not be responding to any of your further attempts at a rebuttal until you can sit with yourself and realize that. You think you're free from propaganda? The propaganda has worked extra hard on you, because you still believe that we are not civilized people.
I hope you have the day you deserve.

alix kubdel
- mixed black and french
- she/they/he prns
- does not have dyed hair like in canon i really dont like it

juleka couffaine (FAVVVV)
- southeast asian (probably indonesian)
- he/she prns
- love him, fav character of all of them by far
- i think shes one year older the whole class in canon??? bc shes lukas twin and i think luka is older too?? juleka just failed a grade or something
- second fav lesbian of the class. yall are gonna hate my first fav.. my third fav is rose (JULROSE 4EVER)
- has even more piercings and jewelry than in canon plus facial piercings
- i think he'd be a scene kid or something like that
rose lavillant
- arab (kuwait??? saudi arabia?? idk)
- she/her prns
- not sure how to feel ab the short blonde pixie cut she has going on in canon bc i hc her as a hijabi
- the hair was ugly anyways i literally cant defend it
- third fav lesbian and shes dating juleka i think its canon if it isnt idc julrose 4life
- only one more lesbian in the class tho. sighs
nathaniel kurtzberg
- racially ambiguous white (is jewish an ethinicty? if it is thats what nath is)
- he/him prns
- he has two moms im not getting into it
- he's gay he just had really bad comphet guys (his comphet crush was marinette, the actual crush is canon)

- its so fucking mean in canon like jeez dude pull that stick out of your ass
- it tormented marinette badddd bro but i dont like thinking about that i am actually pro chloe redemption
- i like to think (in my hc) that she didnt actual mess up marinette that bad it was just super petty jealousy type picking on like nothing tooooooo serious
- anyways she exclusively wears pearls and matching sets in yellow
- shes my number one fav lesbian in the class guys .
- i actually ship it with marinette (NOT in the weird victim/bully way...................) like in an imaginary world where it wasnt so bad. like i see the dynamic i see the potential
- i also ship her with sabrina (also not in the servant/master way) i like to think chloe has a super soft spot for sabrina and the class just isnt aware of their specific dynamic. i think its cute
sabrina raincomprix
- white french
- she/her prns
- ginger, love that about her
- shes chloes lackey in canon but i hc their dynamic as: sab is the brains chlo is the brawn (except its actually like influence/charisma not actual strength. neither of them have that)
- free her in canon tbh
- i do not have much to say about her but the biggest thing she has going for her for me is that i hc her as autistic. i do not have anything to support that or anything to add to that.

Sorry for being a stalker but i was reading youre ask tag and i can confirm the kuwait thing since i’ve been there a few times because of my job (cybersecurity for private companies with a focus on social media engagement/marketing), it’s boring as hell, all there is to do is shopping or going out to cafes, air is unbearably dusty and polluted and made worse by the heat, traffic congestion is extreme and a daily thing, and idk what the hell was their problem but so many people were rude and racist. The guys who hired our company were ok, we didn’t talk much but they were polite and paid well but random people on the street were comfortable yelling shit at my brown ass if i ever stepped out for something and the things i heard about how they treat migrant workers because kafala made me hate being there. Thank God i’m not a woman cause my stays really would’ve been unbearable but i’m not in a hurry to go back and now i’m in a position at work where i can ask not to be sent to certain places.
dubai was surprisingly chill but also boring, best place i ever visited actually was turkey, amazing food and environment, israel would’ve been top since tel aviv is baller but haifa ruined it for me since there’s nothing to do there and it’s just like an oversized suburb, lebanon was great in 2019 but it’s not advised to go there for the foreseeable future. Egypt sadly was also shit for me but Kuwait still beat it for shittiness
Man, it’s never nice to hear negative things about other countries but…I’m sorry you experienced that. I definitely can’t say I’m an expert but each new thing I hear about the Gulf area isn’t making me rush to visit anytime soon
(Also what’s a “private” social media company)
Hope you don’t mind me tagging you @homochadensis but I’ve only been to Haifa once (like a 10 min pit stop lol) so i don’t remember if Haifa was/is crap or not, thoughts?

Bestie?? I was wondering if I might be able to share a thought with you about Bob and his dad? (I do wanna apologize for the second half of the Ben Mears ask I sent I few days ago and if I ever do that again please.....for the love o Jesus, hit me over the head with a bamboo rod, lol). I've been seeing alot of thoughts about both the elder and the younger Pullman and it's making my brain go nuts, especially if Bob's dad was also a Top Gun pilot. I also heard a rather gruesomely funny story from our dear friend, Glen Powell, about an incident that occurred while filming and thought it might make you laugh.....so here goes.
So I have it in my head that Joe Floyd (Bob's dad) was in the same class as Goose, Maverick, Ice and the others and flew quite a few missions with them. He also earned the apt nickname "Foul-Mouth Floyd" (because some of the shit he says would probably have a Marine Corps. General rolling in his grave) and his callsign, "Rabbit" because him and his wife Irene had already had seven other kids with Bob being their youngest.
It was 1992, Joe was fresh off a mission in Kuwait and took a job as a flight instructor at Top Gun. Him, Ice, Mav and a few others were in charge of training new recruits who are as green as you can get and I mean GREEN. Joe's already dealing with enough at this point, the kids wreaking havoc at home and Irene being five months pregnant with Bob, so imagine his frustration when he gets stuck with an arrogant little prick fresh out of the Ivy League colleges whose attitude makes his blood boil. The whole while, the kid's like "oh I'm too good to puke in the plane", ya know, the whole nine yards.
Later on while they're up in the air, Joe notices the kid is starting to look really green around the gills and is getting worse as the minutes go by. He asks how he's doing and the little shit's like "Oh I'm doin just fine" (clearly he's not) and that's when Joe realizes this is his chance to teach the little shithead a lesson. He knows the kid's quietly reaching for the puke bag but doesn't say anything about it.
Joe informs the kid that they're gonna practice with a barrel roll and the kid's like "ok, gimme a sec". Before the kid has a chance to even blink, Joe does a double barrel roll and the contents of the bag and the newbie's stomach all go right back in his face and all across the glass canopy of the plane. The kid is horrified that his lunch literally came right back up in his face, but Joe's secretly laughing his ass off. Unfortunately when they land, that plane has to be scrubbed, sterilized and disinfected and it takes two whole days.
Years later, Joe tells the story to Bob and when Bob becomes a civy instructor and has to deal with an arrogant prick, he pulls a page from his dad's dirty playbook and does the same exact thing to the newbie he's been partnered with.
Bestie, I hope this little bit makes your day and makes you laugh, you don't have to do anything with it, it's just a little bit of comedy I wanted to share (lol), because picturing Lonestar from Spaceballs is making me laugh like an idiot.
IM DEAD AHHHHHHH! Rabbit is a fucken great name bc if Billy boy was in my life…. Same, lol
And babes there will never be enough Ben Mears content in the world.
God I remember watching that interview with Glen and I physically gagged, knowing that Joe probably does it(and probably did it to Jake bc let’s be real it was probably Jake he did it to) then BOB DOING IT?!
I know Jake saw that happen and after Bob landed on the tarmac, Jake stared at him for a solid two minutes before yelling “Holy Fuckballs!” And pointing to Bob “Joe Floyd!… God fucken damnit!” And he’ll slap his knee before going to get a drink bc Joe Floyd was his greatest instructor but god damn if he wasn’t scared shitless by the man

More Headcannons about Bob and his dad
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Alot of people don’t know that Joe was in the Navy before the ranch kinda took over his life
He graduated from Top Gun but pretty soon after that he was shipped off to Kuwait for duty
And he got one hell of a reputation as a pilot
When Maverick found out who Bob’s dad was his reaction was “Wait......Floyd? Your dad is ‘Foul Mouth’ Floyd?!” 
People didn’t believe it......until they saw the pic of Joe on the wall at The Hard Deck in his Navy flight suit sticking not one, but both middle fingers in the air
Some of Joe’s best insulting names include the following
Pencil dicked, cocksucking turd blossom
Cockmuppet
Buttmunch
Butt Monkey
Douche Canoe
Ass monkey
And that’s only brushing the tip of the iceberg
Bob was born on the Navy Base.....well actually in the house the family lived at on the base
His dad had been back from Kuwait for about two years
Bob.....sneaky little Bob, had been born in the middle of the night at the peak of the summer of ‘93
Joe and Irene had already had Bob’s older siblings(seven.....count’em SEVEN!!! Joe clearly, was unable to keep his snake caged properly)
But Joe was moved to tears nonetheless
And when he held tiny little Bob in his arms he could hardly utter a word
“You sneaky fucker *SNIFF!* I love you” 
Bob’s mom had unfortunately passed when he was ten
Which had him and Joe growing as close as a father and son can get
There’s another picture on the wall of Joe in his flight suit, holding one year old Bob on his shoulder
And years later the same pic was taken of Bob with August on his shoulder
God the resemblance between the three generations is fuckin scary
But when Joe comes to The Hard Deck
It’s as though he never left
And there’s always a place at the Dagger Squad table
Because if anything, Joe’s definitely one of the best den-fathers this side of the coast

had the weirdest dream ever. like the stuff i do irl has never ever ever ever seeped so deeply and clearly into my dreams. the main stuff i did yesterday was doing my history essay, playing unturned on the kuwait map and browsed tumblr. so, naturally, i dreamt that i was in kuwait in unturned (for those who don't play unturned just imagine a huge desert with like, some huge gas pipes), next to this big ass pipe. next to me was a set of infinitely expanding platforms(out of every end two more platforms would emerge) and on the platforms was every tumblr user, all doing the same history essay. Also there was this big ass cucumber.
