At least my husband brings me cake and coffee in bed after Ingrid spent the night establishing her voice 😆

1. Bellum Civile 2. Metamorphoses 3. De Rerum Natura 4. Odyssey 5. Aeneid Wondering what AlaniRosa’s ranking is 😆 (goes without saying that Gerusalemme Liberata and Orlando Furioso would knock Odyssey and Aeneid out)

Today marks the start of the Siege of Sarajevo...1,425 days of being cut off from the world during the Bosnian genocide. We were shelled every single day, shot at, cut off from water, electricity, food, and anything human. Our homes destroyed, our families killed off....

This is how cops in Uvalde, who stood around while 19 kids were killed, treats one of the victim’s mother. They’ve done more to brutalize parents than to stop an active shooter. They’ll attack a mother with a sign but hide from killer with an AR-15.

Like what the actual fuck.

Mi fa veramente specie che si stia parlando così poco dell'omicidio di Mahmoud Sayed Mohamed Abdalla, un ragazzo di 19 anni che è stato ucciso dai suoi datori di lavoro perché voleva licenziarsi. Dopo averlo ammazzato, i suoi assassini gli hanno tagliato le mani, l'hanno

We, descendants of Holocaust survivors, call on the world on this Holocaust Remembrance Day to join us in working to end the Israeli government’s genocide against the Palestinian people, enabled and supported by the US government.

Brown University has released a statement condemning the doxxing of a student whose name is being widely shared online. That person is not a suspect in the shooting.
