Lukewarm Media Takes

If you're a new writer and you're asking yourself "is this too personal, is this too much, will people think this is weird" that feeling is the exact location of your actual voice. The stuff that makes you want to close the laptop is the stuff nobody else could write. The safe version is always worse. Always. I have never once read something and thought "this would have been better if it was a little less honest." go further. It's always go further.

"oh i really love xyz character-" really? outside the context of shipping?

“Love is love” okay but can we talk about people whose identities don’t focus on feelings for another person? Pretty please???

if you call women “females” i automatically do not trust or like you

Palestinians are indigenous to the Levant and the area that is now the state of Israel. They are genetically related to remains found at archeological sites in the area from before the Neolithic and they are related to Jewish populations in the Middle East. They have been there forever. Early Zionist writers acknowledged this. The myth that the Palestinian people are all ‘Arab colonizers’ and therefore do not belong on the land is a convenient myth to villainize them using Islamophobic and racist rhetoric, it goes against scientific and historical fact and their own oral history.
