just caught myself working towards my goals and establishing good habits, better nip that shit in the bud
some facts for western christians this holiday season:
jesus’ birthplace is under military occupation
bethlehem is surrounded by military checkpoints, an apartheid wall, and over 20 segregated illegal settlements built on stolen land - all designed to keep palestinians (including palestinian christians) under the thumb of oppression
palestinian christians are not allowed to move without restrictions, meaning that many have never and will never see their own holy sites in jerusalem. jerusalem is less than 30 minutes away.
they are often harassed, beaten, or even killed on holidays like christmas and easter.
palestinian christians are forced out of their homes as israel continues to build apartheid walls and illegal settlements
churches have been deliberately targeted in airstrikes, arson attacks, and settler violence
nuns and other clergy have been targeted in violent attacks
indigenous christians of the holy land have begged for help from christian communities abroad, fearing for their lives and even a possible extinction, according to christian religious leaders there
and finally, a message from the archbishop of jerusalem:
me asf
72 thousand tall faced skinny white men with mullets and pedostache who wear hawaiian shirts or graphic tees and think theyre funny are all on their way to your house
there's so many artists and genres of music out there and even more people you can make fun of for not knowing all of them
Yeah when you think about it they're exactly the same
none of you know how copyright law works do you
"the club" isn't a real place. "clubs" are real. I've been to clubs, with their loudness of talking and loudness of music and actually pretty good cocktails and drinking until you think you can dance. none of them have ever been "the club." the club is erewhon, utopia, a dream of finding a reprieve from suffering and loneliness in pleasure. maybe he should be at "the club," but he cannot. we can none of us be there. also the cocktails were probably overpriced.
