Actually, what would be a great tumblr feature is like a Snooze/softblock for certain posts, so if you see the same thing 17 times in 10 minutes you can say ‘hey can I not see this post for a bit plz’ without outright blocking it. Maybe with an option to make it visible if a mutual has added commentary to a version that you haven’t seen before.

yuletide lace | parker & ross

Ross was bright red in the face by the time he was kneeling outside Parker’s door. He had no idea the outfit he’d dared to put on would attract so much attention on his way there. He was done up in an emerald green corset, complete with lacy, black panties and fishnet stockings to complete the look. It was a lot more sultry of a look than he usually went for. Normally, he opted towards pastels that sold a guise of innocence, but tonight, he was feeling anything but. His makeup was subtle, but pretty and he was more than ready for Parker to react to all the effort he’d put forth. Lifting a delicate, manicured hand, he knocked on the man’s door and sat back submissively on his heels, bowing his head properly as he waited for the evening’s festivities to commence with the opening of the door. @partyboyparker​

Almost two days until 🎄🎅🏻Christmas finally comes, but wish me luck of sorting things out before had time to chill off during the holidays. Speaking of related holidays stuff though, my P-pal sure does as he went through two malls from last month. Just like from his past times when he visiting malls and very festive than the last. Just saying though. I would’ve imagined if me and my family will be at the mall for fun.

However for this “On this day” post share, I pretty much understand for him that it isn’t what he had wanted. As for me though, I’m not a fan of this anime if I watched this.

What are everyone’s plans for New Years Eve? I’m looking to gauge interest in a little soirée I’m thinking of hosting. And by ‘little soirée’ I actually mean, renting out the night-club in town for a massive party, complete with an open bar, dancing, an entire floor dedicated to however you want to celebrate, and a reputable DJ flown over from NYC to blast club music at an ear-splitting volume until the sun rises. 

I’ve had...a year, let’s say and I’m more than ready to welcome a new, fresh slate in style. If you’d be interested (as if you wouldn’t be) just go ahead and say so.

Spain lied about not selling weapons to Israel.

Even after October 7th, Spain has sold more than 1 million € of weapons to Israel. Norway and Finland make it possible.

In January, Spain made headlines word-wide when the government's Minister of Exteriors, José Manuel Albares (PSOE), claimed in Congress and later again in a radio interview that Spain had stopped selling weapons to Israel ever since October 7th. Israel's intensification of violence in Gaza following October 7th meant that, on top of decades of apartheid and ethnic cleansing, between October 7th and January 23rd Israel had already killed 28,000 people and forced 2 million out of their home. In this context, many people were demanding their governments stop arming and funding the genocide of the Palestinian people, and here on Tumblr and other social media sites like Twitter I think we all saw the many posts praising the Spanish government for this.

Well, it turns out it was a lie.

According to Albares, "Since October 7th there are no more weapons exportations [from Spain] to Israel". But in November alone, Spain exported weapons to Israel for 987,000€, as was published on the Spanish Government's official website dedicated to exterior commerce (Comex). A researcher from Centre Delàs (an independent centre for peace studies) found it and published it, and it has also been verified by newspapers such as elDiario.es.

This 987,000€ worth of weapons in November was not the only ammunition that Spain has sent to Israel in 2023. In 2023, Spain exported a total of 1.48 million € in war material to Israel.

All of the weapons sent in November come from the factory of Nammo Palencia (Castilla y León), a corporation that is 50% property of the Government of Norway and 50% owned by a public Finnish business. However, even if the owners are foreigners, the ammunition was sent from Spain and thus it had to be authorized by the an organism of the Spanish Government named Junta Interministerial de Defensa y Doble Uso, whose deliberations on whether a weapons exportation is accepted or denied are kept secret. The only cases where they have denied exporting weapons to Israel have been when they thought that Israel would re-sell these weapons to the Philippines.

Spain has had a close relation with Israel for years. As published by the Spanish Government, Spain has sold 20 million € of weapons to Israel between 2012 and 2022. Spain also buys weapons and military software from Israel (for example, the Spanish Intelligence Service has been using the Israeli software Pegasus to illegally spy on Catalan activists, journalists, politicians and civil society members and their relatives to attack the Catalan independence movement), and Spain has continued buying from Israel and allocating defense contracts to Israel even after the October 7th attacks. It is very difficult to track the concessions of public contracts such as buying weapons, but some contracts have been known. For example, on November 24th 2023, Spain bought 287.5 million € of missiles from Israel. This is not unusual: between 2011 and 2021, it is publicly known that Spain bought war material from Israel for at least 268 million €, but experts say that the real number could be two or three times as much.

Spain has also continued allocating concessions to Israel. For example, on December 15th 2023 Spain allocated a contract worth over 576 million € to Israel for a rocket launcher programme. On November 22nd, Spain allocated another another Israeli company to provide missiles for 237 million € at the same time as the Spanish army bought Israeli inhibitors for 1.4 million €. The very next day, November 23rd, Spain signed another military allocation to Israel for 82,600€. The following week, Spain signed yet another allocation with a different Israeli military corporation for 3.7 million €.

Spain also allows Israeli weapon manufacturing companies to produce weapons through their branches located in Spain. This way, Israeli weapons make their way to markets with which Israel doesn't have diplomatic ties but Spain does, like Saudi Arabia. And since Spain is a member of NATO, Israeli weapons produced in Spain are approved according to NATO standards and access it easily. In the same way, these Israeli weapons manufacturers also access European Union defense funds through their branches in Spain. (source).

As I said, I saw a lot of positive posts around when Albares said Spain was going to embargo, but I haven't seen any post about how they didn't do it. I also (personally) haven't seen anything on international media, and barely anything on Spanish media, which is already busy with the PSOE covid material corruption scandal. So I share this in the hope of helping put pressure on Spain to cut all ties with Israel immediately.

SHAME ON EVERYONE WHO GIVES ISRAEL THE MATERIAL AND MONEY THAT WILL BE USED TO MASSACRE THE PALESTINIAN PEOPLE. SHAME ON SPAIN, NORWAY, AND FINLAND.

Even the names of countries, and their shapes on the map, had been different. Airstrip One, for instance, had not been so called in those days: it had been called England or Britain, though London, he felt fairly certain, had always been called London.
