“—theirs had been the touching of two minds which the old poets of Spock’s home planet had proclaimed as superior even to the wild physical love which affected Vulcans every seventh year during pon farr.”
Qureshi remembered thinking to himself in his hospital bed during the
anxiety of his month-long blindness: “What did I do for which I was
punished so badly? What did my family do? Why did it happen to me?”
The available evidence suggests the strike was an error. Reporter
Daniel Klaidman’s book about Obama’s drone strikes, Kill or Capture,
claims that the first January 2009 strike had gone “terribly wrong”, with the targeted Taliban member never having been on the premises. A leaked Pakistani government document records “9 civilians”
being killed in a drone strike on 23 January 2009, an apparent
reference to the one on Qureshi’s home; an unredacted version seen by
the Guardian names his village and his dead uncle.
“There are so many people like me in Waziristan that I know of who
were targeted and killed who had nothing to do with militancy or the
Taliban,” Qureshi said, “so many women who have been killed, children
who have been killed, but there is still no answer to this. Forget about
the answers, there is not even acknowledgement that we were killed.”
Yeah ummmmm can someone fact check this? Don’t have the energy for this and seems like it may be some of that Russian stuff
Jesus Fucking Christ shut up about Russians for 2 seconds and realize that America has left majority of this planet scarred with marks of bomb and littered with corpses with its Imperialism. Literally go read a peer-reviewed history textbook that isn’t your high school textbook (which is 99% not peer-reviewed) on what we did with most of Latin America and Asia and continue to do all over Southwest Asia and North Africa to this day also realize how racist it sounds when we people of color talk about how America bombs us and you won’t shut up about McCarthyism 2.0: Electric Boogaloo instead of shutting the hell up about stuff that you are clearly not equipped to discuss
also…….its the guardian ??? its not an obscure or out of the mainstream paper like these people have been publishing articles since 1821
exactly!! this happens sooo often and people just assume that boys like it, and sometimes boys are so brainwashed by society that they may think they do but it always eventually fucks them up, its so sick…it needs to be talked abt, and not as just something to silence female victims but male victims need true justice and care, im tired of this happening and being taken lightly.
Grown men have also romanticized boys being molested by older women. It’s always “yeah score bruh!” Instead of “uhh that’s rape”. Every time one these stories about a female teacher molesting a student comes out every comment by a male is “I wouldn’t have complained! I would love to fuck my teacher in middle school!” I remember Chris Brown has a similar story like this too He was 8 when a 15 year old girl raped him. If uou say something then you’re not a “real man”. Shit gotta go.
Letters between the artists Beatrice Fenton (1887-1983, top right) and Marjorie Martinet (1886-1981, bottom left), lovers of fifty years.Archives of American Art, Smithsonian.
“… I would pour out to you the tenderest and the most fervent love I know if you were here to-night, Beloved. I wish I could do more than write it, or that I could write poetry …” (undated)
“My love is like the sea; returning – as the tide …
Lovingly with embraces pleading, gently then with kisses speaking, unto the lovely shore, your love.” (1915)
