If somehow you haven’t seen by now, while the Super Bowl is being aired, Israel is striking Rafah.
The people of Palestine had been told to go there, they were promised it was safe.
And while this is happening, even though earlier several tags on Palestine were trending, only one or two are now.
I haven’t written any posts personally on Palestine myself. I didn’t feel I had anything to add here aside from reblogging and boosting whatever I can but please. We can’t forget Palestine or its people especially now.
This has gone on too long and gone much much too far MANY times and now is when we need to push harder.
Many of the heads of Western countries are either beating around the bush and wasting time, or outright denying the things the Palestinian people don’t have the privilege to ignore. They don’t have the choice to look away from their pain, or the pain of friends, family, neighbors, their country. And even through all of this they’re still trying their damn hardest just to live. And we all need to listen.
So now, especially if you live in a western country like I do, now we step it up a notch. Now is the time if you haven’t already to read up on Palestinian history. Listen to what the people of Palestine are saying. Hold firm on the boycott like never before. Any and every way you can donate, do it. eSIMs, aid, anything that will reach. Save as much evidence as you can. Videos, articles. Don’t let Zionists pretend all of this never happened.
Even if you think there’s nothing you can do, I’m telling you, keep going. Even if you feel you can only give a little, if we all give a little together it becomes much more.
Hit imperialism where it hurts. In the wallet. Follow the BDS instructions, find protests in your area if you can, boost as much information about Palestine as you can find, call your reps, and do not lose hope. The people of Palestine are not dead. They are holding on even through all this and we all owe it to them to do the same.
A Free Palestine will happen in our lifetimes. But it will be hard fought. So go out there and fight hard! The governments can’t hide from their own people forever. The companies can’t bleed cash forever. The people will win. So push until we do. Do not look away. Free Palestine
My take on “radical feminism” that nobody asked for
I myself consider myself leaning very into radical feminism but I see that terf ideologies seem to get mixed in more often than not (wanna make it clear I support trans rights)
1. A lot of rad fems think that all heterosexual sex is rape which is such an insane thing to do and implies that women do not have the power or capacity to consent to heterosexual sex
2. I do agree that we as woman will never find liberation through sex or sex work however rad fems do not realize that a lot of women fall into sex work and can not simply quit, I do not support the sex work industry but I support sex workers
3. To me it seems a lot of white women have overshadowed the movement and only mention woc when it’s used as an aha! moment against men and not with the intention of actually helping
4. Extreme transphobia, the main idea is that trans women rape women’s body’s and appropriating the body, my conflict with this is women are not their bodies and trans women have always felt like women since birth is the biological aspect that’s the problem
5. A lot of rad fems think a women choosing a certain lifestyle or religion is oppressive which again perpetuates the idea that women can not make a choice without a man or patriarchal idea being involved or a sense of brain washing
I think a lot of rad fems have lost sense of the movement and more times than often make themselves appear victim like and in a constant state of martyrdom, yes we women have suffered and continue to suffer and be oppressed but we can not let this weight break us down and make us point fingers at people (trans women and women who choose religion or certain life styles) who are not the root cause of our suffering
Please let me know your thoughts
Edit
⭐️Some people seem to be confused about this but i was born a woman and will always be a woman, it’s so crazy how other women will try to degrade me as if they were men for disagreeing with them or seeing things differently, i do not like liberal feminism and i never have, and i do not like to label my belief system and prefer to make a more individual standpoint than community⭐️
Another edit lol
⭐️I have never claimed to be a rad fem or that I know everything about rad feminism because I don’t, and that was the purpose of this post, it’s really crazy how people will say they want to educate and liberate women while yelling and degrading me for simply not agreeing with them and proceed to do the same things men do, you are no better than a man, I’ve come to realize that this community strayed from its original purpose and roots and has been taken over by people who want to put in their own two cents and opinion, this community or at least a good portion of it seems like a very miserable community, I have meet a lot of rad fems who have common sense and realize that hate will get them nowhere and being rude to me won’t achieve anything, on the other hand majority of rad fems I’ve meet have misconstrued the movement from what I’ve read and put feelings over facts, I won’t interact to hate and only to genuine discussions ⭐️

I’m not gonna bother to clear up some of the stances you said I support because I already did,
I’m not chronically online I was curious about the movement and wanted to know what it’s beliefs entail but everyone has had given me a slightly different answer than the last person, I’m very young and has never heard of radical feminism before this week
which is crazy because I like the purpose of the movement but a lot of the community is simply insane with no common sense on how to communicate and have a reasonable conversation
In my community feminism is still very controversial and growing up no talk like that was allowed (I’ve also stated this but I grew up in a cult) I’ve grown up sheltered and told that feminism was demonic and I’m trying to repair the damage that was done during that time
The people in this community can’t even agree on its core values as even women from the beginning of the movement have different answers as to what a radical feminist is
Yes I was uneducated on the subject ( like I said I never even knew what radical feminism was until this week ) and I stated that multiple time’s but people are aggressive and so blinded by hate they ignore what I said
I don’t need labels to do activism because I have already done activism and nothing takes that away just because you don’t agree with what I said, again I said I’m not a radical feminist so you saying I’m not literally doesn’t mean anything, I’m not worried about labels the people in this community are
Sure I was uneducated but not because of my own ignorance it’s because of the same patriarchy you hate, again this community prides itself on liberating women but does not help women who want to understand it or learn about it

Wether or not you intended for it to be used that way it’s still a slur no matter the context. It’s not that the word can be used as a slur, it IS used as a slur. Literally what else would it be used for be serious. I don’t know how many times you had people explain to you that it’s offensive, but I don’t understand why if you know what that word is used for and how harmful it can be, why not change your username?
Pairing- Cillian Murphy and Reader - Not based on real life. Thank you for your support, would love to hear your thoughts!
Summary- I used my couple from The Other Woman, for this fic. Cillian has been away for weeks, and Y/n wants to surprise him.
Your stress levels were high, as you made your way through the hotel. Cillian was here somewhere, doing a Q&A for Oppenheimer. After a long flight, you had showered and changed in his PA’s room. Wanting to be fresh when you saw him. The weather was a lot warmer here, than at home.
He literally had no idea you were here. It had been weeks, since you saw each other. Since he saw his daughter too, and you knew he was struggling. Working long days, answering the same questions over and over. Having to be sociable, it was his idea of hell.
You had travelled alone with Niamh, for the first time. Surprisingly it had gone smoothly. Of course it helped, that Cillian’s PA had booked you into first class. Had a driver to meet you, and help you with your bags.
You had spoken to Cillian late last night, before your flight. Telling him you were going to a cottage, with your friend Liv. So you may not get signal. He had another week to go in LA, he was due to pick up an award at the Palm Springs Film Festival. He had already confessed how home sick he was.
Rushing along the corridor, you knocked on Cillian’s door. He was still working, but his team were waiting for him. When his PA Lyndsey opened the door, you quickly entered.
“Little Princess is still asleep,” she smiled, as you walked through to check. Cillian had a huge suite, so Niamh was sleeping in the bedroom. She looked tiny on his King Size bed.
“Thank you for watching her, I was desperate for a shower,” you responded, hearing a tap on the door. The unmistakable voice of your fiancée, chatting to someone. Your heart began to race.
“Quick, back in the bedroom,” Lyndsey whispered, ushering you away. “Let him come in,” You paced the room, while you waited. Hearing the main door close, as they began to chat.
“It wasn’t as long as last night,” Cillian answered, while you slowly opened the door. Creeping out, he stood with his back to you. “Still busy though, loads of people there. Fuck, it's hot in here,"
Lyndsey nodded, smiling at him. “Well you have a few hours now, to relax. You know just to catch up,” You swore she was more excited, than you were.
“Catch up?” He asked, confused. Feeling a pair of hands, covering his eyes. “What the?” Quickly spinning around, he gasped to find you in front of him.
“Holy fuck… shit,” His mouth went dry, eyes filling with tears. "Shit.... fuck,"
"Are you going to stand there and swear, or kiss your poor woman?" Gareth his stylist laughed. Cillian clearly had no idea you were here. You had really caught him off guard.
Throwing his arms around your waist, he picked you up. Squeezing you so tightly, you could barely breathe. Spinning you around, burying his head in your hair.
"I cant believe it, fuck. Is it really you?" he asked, blinking away his emotion.
"It is really me, I couldn't not be here to see you get your award," you beamed, pressing your lips to his. God, you had missed him so much. Lifting you up, Cillian squeezed you again. Your legs wrapping around his waist.
"Guys, you are making me emotional!" Lyndsey announced, "We will leave you to it,"
You both didn't even notice his team, leaving the room. Locked together in an embrace, holding onto his strong shoulders. Lips meeting feverishly, making up for lost time. When a shrill cry interrupted your reunion.
"Shit! Is that my girl?" Cillian gasped, placing you back onto the floor. Trying to ignore his growing erection, he pulled you through to the bedroom. Niamh still laying on top of his bed, arms and legs kicking angrily. She hated being left on her own.
"Who is in here?" Cillian asked, crawling onto the bed. You couldn't stop smiling, watching her little eyes searching the room. She knew her Daddy's voice.
“Is this my little Niamh bear?" He cooed.
When her Daddy's face came into view, her blue eyes widened. Hands clenching and unclenching, excitedly. "Here she is, here she is, Daddy has missed you!" Picking her up Cillian held her close, letting her grip onto his jumper.
"You happy to see Daddy? Yes you are," you smiled, letting her grip your hand. "Mummy is happy to see Daddy too," standing next to him, he wrapped his arms round both of you.
"Fuck, I'm so glad you are here," he stated, enjoying his little reunion.
That night, you both attended the awards ceremony. You hated these types of events, you both did. Cillian was always uncomfortable with the press, the never ending questions. You hated the scrutiny, people making comments about your relationship.
Desperate for pictures of you together.
Lyndsey had arranged a babysitter, but you wouldn't stay too late. You hated leaving her. Walking hand in hand through the crowd, with Cillian's team. he turned to whisper in your ear. "You are the most beautiful woman, in here,"
"I have just seen Eva Longoria," you laughed, aware of people taking sneaky selfies of him. "She is stunning,"
"You are the only woman for me," Cillian winked, taking your hand again.
When the time came for Cillian to accept his achievement award. You were overcome, with emotion. He had worked so hard, not just on this movie. But, throughout his whole career. Although, when you were both at home, it was easy to forget what a big star he was.
He was just your Cillian. Niamh and Niall's Dad. Your fiancée, just in your little bubble. Dabbing your eyes, you sipped some water. Listening intently.
“And finally, because I never get to do this, I want to thank my family," Cillian continued. Waving over at you. "Two thirds are here with me, my beautiful fiancée, Y/n, sitting just over there," The whole crowd turned to look at you.
Oh my god.
"For putting up with me," he chuckled, "Supporting me when I take on these huge projects, they are always there for me. And I love you, thank you everyone,"
Note- Congratulations to Cillian!

1. She said she knew SOME women with pcos not all the women in the world with pcos nor did she say that all women felt the need to shave ect
2. It is just a fact that someone needs to put effort into their transition to got into the societal standard. You cannot look at those two people and say they are at the dance point of their transition
I genuinely don’t understand the hate the trans community gets, I know there are bad people in that community but that’s just the way the world is, there are bad people everywhere
It’s weird to me seeing how in places like Thailand or in my culture trans women are seen as two spirited, not women but not men either, or are seen as a different kind of women.
I Don’t really understand the hate because I come from a culture where it is accepted
I suggest everyone takes a look at her tik tok
I love the way she does not bullshit or cut corners when it comes to talking about issues in the trans community
What do y’all think?
I really appreciate your input thank you for interacting 🫶
1) I figured it was a very small percentage but I still wanted to know if it was still a belief in the community
2) thank you for clearing that up and I complete agree with what you said
3) I’m a aiming you mean that people don’t look at their own communities flaws when it comes to issues like this and I completely agree
4) I’ve actually mostly heard a and b in this community, I can understand saying trans men and women need their own movement I just don’t understand a lot of the hate towards them in the community , I’ve heard a lot of people say it’s because they think being a woman is a costume which I don’t believe is true and I don’t believe that majority of trans women think of womanhood that way
5) I was actually raised in a cult lol and had major gender roles forced and beliefs forced on me , I don’t think they are ani feminist I have always thought that feminism gave us the choice to things like wanting be a house wife and wanting a family or being childless and pursuing a career, it’s like people who say that wearing hijabs is oppressive even if the women may not have been raised in a country where Islam or modesty is prevalent. I 100 percent agree that our upbringing and the things that have been implanted into our minds and young girls stays with us forever and influences our decisions when it comes to lifestyle and belief
I’m really glad we can have this discussion, again thank you for responding 🫶
My take on “radical feminism” that nobody asked for
I myself consider myself leaning very into radical feminism but I see that terf ideologies seem to get mixed in more often than not (wanna make it clear I support trans rights)
1. A lot of rad fems think that all heterosexual sex is rape which is such an insane thing to do and implies that women do not have the power or capacity to consent to heterosexual sex
2. I do agree that we as woman will never find liberation through sex or sex work however rad fems do not realize that a lot of women fall into sex work and can not simply quit, I do not support the sex work industry but I support sex workers
3. To me it seems a lot of white women have overshadowed the movement and only mention woc when it’s used as an aha! moment against men and not with the intention of actually helping
4. Extreme transphobia, the main idea is that trans women rape women’s body’s and appropriating the body, my conflict with this is women are not their bodies and trans women have always felt like women since birth is the biological aspect that’s the problem
5. A lot of rad fems think a women choosing a certain lifestyle or religion is oppressive which again perpetuates the idea that women can not make a choice without a man or patriarchal idea being involved or a sense of brain washing
I think a lot of rad fems have lost sense of the movement and more times than often make themselves appear victim like and in a constant state of martyrdom, yes we women have suffered and continue to suffer and be oppressed but we can not let this weight break us down and make us point fingers at people (trans women and women who choose religion or certain life styles) who are not the root cause of our suffering
Please let me know your thoughts
Trans women may not have struggled to the degree as women but you have to acknowledge there was a point in time where a transwomen would be killed and nothing was done about it and were subject to deadly hate crimes.
Acknowledging that transwomen have struggles doesn’t take away from women’s struggle even if it has not been to the degree women have
White women absolutely have privilege because of their race and there are some who see women as color as non human and below them in every aspect.
And I didn’t say I chose anyone, it’s a fact that not all trans women are after women and it’s a fact that not all white women actually care about what happens to women of color
Saying that white women are scared of you ain’t a flex, they are scared of you because they see you are threat because of your race and that has lead to the death of many black women, a white women will absolutely deny your humanity because that’s what they have done to black women and native women,
I fight for all women’s rights however white women do not do the same
I've seen your profile and I couldn't be more surprised on how you're the only rad leaning feminist that I can agree
You are educated, you are nice with the others and I really appreciate how you handle all this harrassment, they call you a TRA or worse stuff, some even go down to throw misogynistic slurs and speak at you, just because you are nice with trans people
I think is that you're not white and not from west and being a sister not from Europe or north america i can agree we both have different views on trans people than the people there, we are more accepting and aware on how they are (I'm from latin america btw)
I do agree by a lot with your points
thank you if you read that
😭😭 I’m so glad you found my profile!!
I’m from Latin America as well and come form a tribe that is a direct descendant of the Mayans
I have gotten very hateful comments especially about my culture which was very odd to me since we live in peace and are able to coexist and some radfems here have the audacity to say my culture is wrong just because I don’t see trans people as a threat to women because in my community they never have been
It is very sad that they insult me and degrade me and tell me I have no self respect which is the exact same thing men say to me to insult me
One thing I have learned is that white women will never be women of colors allies, never have been never will be, and I’m assuming most of the women spewing hate speech at me are white women who lack any cultural context and don’t bother to educate themselves or listen to what non white women have to say. They have a very “im right and your wrong” mindset
I’m glad to meet someone like minded and I hope my blog continues to reach more people like you
Much love 💖🫶
