i love male characters who are extremely stuck-up and "inside the box" [like, proper, way too formal, cold, almost boring] from an outside perspective but their brain is actually an assembly of the weirdest shit you could possibly find

The International Court of Justice has acknowledged a plausible risk of genocide in Gaza by refusing to dismiss the case.

The Court has found that there is plausibility of irreparable harm done to the fabric of Palestinian society.

The conditions for genocide are met.

It's literally a drop in the ocean, it's far too late but it will be a stain on the bloodied history of Israel in perpetuity.

Palestinian women and girls are actively being denied uterine and gynecological care. they have to use tent remnants as tampons and pads. they’re also getting infections as well. israel is actively denying them humanity. they have 0 access to care they need.

The Pious Projects is raising funds to distribute feminine hygiene kits in Gaza! They have on ground teams serving their own communities and their programs are always 100% admin free. Click the link to learn more & donate a hygiene kit. They have different tiers of donation so anything from a 5 dollar donation to a 1000 dollar donation can be done

Israel isnt a country, no.

Settler Colony ✅️

Heroes of Olympus except its not the leaders that are swapped but the Oracle and the Augur.

Octavian just embodies the vibe of "I'm surrounded by idiots." He is very much in need in caffeine and is just done with everything.

And yet very efficient and not one to take lightly.

Octavian has threatened to stab anyone who laughs at his teddy bear routine. Saying he'll get the next prophecy from using them as a sacrifice.

He's got a very dry sense of humour and in a way reminds everyone of Dionysius.

He's also nice under it all but if you say that he will stab you.

As for Rachel.

She's surrounded by a bunch of pretentious folk trying to tell her what to do.

It's like being back home all over again.

And frankly, she's over it.

Rachel has tried to explain that she cant just magic up a prophecy but no ones listening.

So she grabs a knife, some painting supplies and shuts herself up in her new quarters.

Doesn't come out until they'll listen to reason.

Rachel makes it clear she will do what she wants, whatever that is and is endlessly amused at how pissed that makes people.

She was born to cause chaos.

No one tells her what to do, no one.

Octavian and Rachel meeting after the exchange like "are you okay? What the fuck was that?"

They become good friends, talk shit about everyone.

Rachel has someone who is mortal and grew up in her world that has gone through a similar journey to her.

Octavian actually has someone to talk to about the visions he's getting from Gaea.

They unite the camps and get coffee afterwards.

Hey, are you aware of the fact that many people in Gaza have resorted to cutting pieces of their tents for scraps for pads? Which as you can imagine isn't the safest option but their only option in most cases. This also applies to those going through postpartum bleeding from giving birth. If you want to or can help:

The Pious Projects - they distribute feminine hygiene kits for people in Gaza! I suggest checking it out yourself but there's various amounts you can give from $5-$1,000 to help make and distribute these kits! They cost around $25 for each kit, but every bit helps. Make sure to share the link even if you can't currently help donate today!

Percy and Nico are so funny. Nico trusts Percy, going so far as to reassure his sister Hazel about it, yet doesn't think Percy trusts him in return. On the other hand, Percy trusts Nico enough to leave convincing Hades to him, but he also believes that Nico has lost faith in him since the time he let his other sister, Bianca, die.

There is so much trust and yet no trust at all. Absolutely spectacular.
