the last poem written by a Palestinian martyr

read the full poem here!! <3

[ID 1 of 2: black text on a white background that reads,

'I Grant You Refuge

It is our great honor to publish this translation of “I Grant You Refuge” by Palestinian poet, novelist, and teacher, Hiba Abu Nada. “Refuge” was written on October 10th and is among the last pieces she composed before being martyred by an Israeli airstrike on October 20th. We are beyond grateful to Huda Fakhreddine for her incredible translation from the original Arabic.']

[ID 2 of 2: the final stanza of the poem. black text on a white background that reads,

'5.

I grant you refuge

from hurt and suffering.

With words of sacred scripture

I shield the oranges from the sting of phosphorous

and the shades of cloud from the smog.

I grant you refuge in knowing

that the dust will clear,

and they who fell in love and died together

will one day laugh.'

In Gaza, residents wake up to find a yellow block in their neighbourhood. Once they see it, they grab what they can and flee, knowing their homes will be demolished and that they will never be able to return. whoever sees it from their window in Gaza becomes homeless!

You could be the reason that’s people can buy food and clean water to drink & heavy clothes in this cold weather.

Having murdered EVERY journalist in Gaza, and many of their families.

Having banned ANY international journalist from entering.

Having destroyed almost every structure in Gaza and even laughing as they blew up water treatment facilities and cancer wards.

Israel is now BANNING all aid agencies from operating there from tomorrow.

The last thread of charitable aid removed.

An evil beyond humanity.

The violation of the truce has not stopped since the moment it was announced, and the occupation is escalating because it knows that no one will stop it!

last 24 hours they killed 15 people lives in tents 5 of them are kids

there's no ceasefire

‏The temperature is just 2°C, a number that might seem harmless, but in Gaza, it can be deadly. Families are sheltering in thin fabric tents, without heating, without warm clothes, and with barely enough blankets to keep out the cold. In these conditions, winter becomes not just a season, but a threat to survival.

by the way guys, this deployment of ice to minnesota is largest ever. more agents than chicago. we are a much less dense state. we are being inundated.

It is the largest Department of Homeland Security operation in history. And yet Minnesota’s Somali population (this operation’s primary target) is upwards of 90% naturalized American citizens. It’s even more of a manufactured crisis than most DHS operations. Genuinely living in Minnesota now feels like we’re a small country on the brink of invasion.

every ICE agent could die right now and they'd all deserve it

Housing situation still in flux and I still don't have an income. If anyone can help out with food/cat supplies, I'd greatly appreciate it!

Xie Lian: I can't believe that my former Guoshi is actually an ancient immortal from a fallen kingdom, who hid his true name, background and basically everything the entire time, has been a heavenly official before, didn't die like I thought he had, and has now returned in the most unexpected manner, first making me believe that he's my enemy, only for there to be a crazy twist and suprise villain! *sigh* I guess I never really knew him after all...

Lang Qianqiu: Huh I wonder how that feels
