At first he was sure it must've been Muriel. Of course they wouldn't understand what the blankets were for! A coat keeps people warm right?

But then it just keeps happening.

If he falls asleep in the shop, he wakes up with that coat around his shoulders.

The worst part is he just can't figure out why the damn thing still smells....like him. After this long surely Crowley's smell should've taken over? But no...it's still old books and dust...still that faint, barely there bleach clean of heaven. Still wine and ink, still leather and glue. Still strong enough Crowley's not sure he's not accidentally miracling the scent to stay.

He's gonna have to stop sleeping here....it's messing with his mind a little now, because earlier, when he felt the coat fall into place gently around his hunched form (he'd really be trying not to sleep), he could've sworn he felt the ghost of a kiss to the top of his head, an I'm sorry barely there whispered nearby, hand lingering on his arm. But when he'd jerked awake no one had been there...not even Muriel

Dear Friends,

I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to share an urgent plea for help. Due to the ongoing conflict in Gaza, my family and I have been forced to flee our home and seek refuge in Khan Younis. My mother, who is pregnant, is in critical need of assistance to ensure her safety and the safety of her unborn child.

We are facing severe hardships and are struggling to provide her with the necessary medical care and basic necessities. I have launched a campaign to raise funds for my mother's survival during this perilous time.

Your support in sharing our campaign on social media could make a life-saving difference. Please help us spread the word and gather the support we desperately need.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Sincerely,

Hi Laila,

Of course. Whatever little I can do to help I will do.

To anyone who this post reaches. Please donate, or signal boost.

"If the Israeli assault stopped today, and we decided to hold a funeral every single day for each Palestinian killed in the last eight months, it would take us 100 years to honor them all."

I'm ashamed to say that in 2024 I now have the answers. The government's gas lighting and complicity, the media dehumanising, ignoring and bias reporting, the huge companies funding and supporting, the public figures choosing to stay silent, the ordinary person pretending "they don't know enough" this is how we've allowed this to happen time and time again..

In the past we could forgive people for not having enough information, not having access to it, not being able to hear the stories of the horrors, to be able to see it with their own eyes..

In 2024 you can't pretend you "don't know enough" you can't pretend you don't see innocent children, men, and women being brutally killed by sadistic, genocidal leaders and their war crimes.. you can't ignore the 100's and 1000's of videos, images, stories and people who are telling you what is happening.. the sheer horror of images we are seeing.. you can't ignore the countless protests, discourse, conversations, posts, live feeds etc.. history will judge your inaction, your silence, your ignorance..

This is not a war.. this is a genocide.. this is massacre.. there are no sides..
