SDFG OK
“I Love New York And It Likes Me Okay”
oh.
“Yes,” he said.
“And when the days of weeping for him were past, Joseph spoke to the household of Pharaoh, saying, “If now I have found favor in your eyes, speak, I pray you, in the ears of Pharaoh, saying ‘My father made me swear, saying, ‘I am about to die: in my tomb which I hewed out for myself in the land of Canaan, there you shall bury me.’”
oh
“How could I not understand?” cried Siddartha. “How could I fail to understand when it comes from such a mouth? Your mouth is like a freshly cut fig, Kamala. My lips are also red and fresh, and will fit yours well, you will see. But tell me, fair Kamala, are you not at all afraid of the Samana from the forest, who has come to learn about love?”
^^^ EXCELLENT. HESSE FTW
“A number of women prisoners who had their beer allowance taken away broke open a gate, threw missiles and threatened to set the prison and the governor’s house on fire.”
“Love as ‘sweet suffering’ was too irrational.”
“Organic form, with its hierarchical and physiological co-operation and competition based on ‘natural’ domination and division of labour, gave way to systems theory with its control schemes based on communications networks and a logical technology in which human beings become potentially outmoded symbol-using devices.”
“Metropolitan feminists were making the same kind of error that White male ethnographers often made.”

“Nobody will look at me. I’m invisible”
Well, that’s assuring
Oh my goodness.
I’m a little scared to.
The book is “Discipline and Punish: The Birth of the Prison” by Michel Foucault.
Okay. Here we go. Part One: Torture. Chapter 2: The spectacle of the scaffold.
Breath. This is gonna be long.
“There was the use of ‘symbolic’ torture in which the forms of the execution referred to the nature of the crime: the tongues of blasphemers were pierced, the impure were burnt, the right hand of murderers was cut off; sometimes the condemned man was made to carry the instrument of his crime—thus Damiens was made to hold in his guilty right hand the famous dagger with which he had committed the crime, hand and dagger being smeared with sulfur and burned together.”
Well, that’s hopeful. After all, I am pretty impure, and quite the blasphemer….;)
I don’t generally do these things.
But.
“It has been delightful to meet you ladies.”
Yes good.
“When I was in college, my roommate Anne used to drink Earl Grey tea sweetened with honey and lightened with whole milk while we studied in the afternoon.”
OH GOD THIS IS THE TRUTH. I currently am slated to have a roommate next year (Kaye, I love you, but I also want a sex life), and that is exactly the kind of tea I drink, and I’ll be working on my div all the time.
But it’s a book on chocolate, full of things like “Pour the honey on top of it” or from the next page “…you will be rewarded with a burst of real … flavor that leaves you wanting more, rather than the itch to go brush your teeth.”

Activist prevents Israeli officer from arresting Palestinian child
During Sunday’s Jerusalem Day events, a Palestinian boy, perhaps 10 years old, was chased down an East Jerusalem street by a very angry officer of the Border Police. The boy tripped and fell, then picked himself up just as the Border Police officer reached him and tried to grab him. But a 22 year-old female Israeli activist prevented the boy’s arrest by throwing herself between the two, allowing the Palestinian boy to flee.
Jerusalem Day is meant to be a celebration of the city’s ‘reunification’ following Israel’s victory in the 1967 war. In practice, it is a day for Israeli nationalists, draped in flags, dancing in circles, singing and chanting (including the popular Israeli nationalist chant, ‘death to Arabs’) as they march through the streets of East Jerusalem and the Old City. Many of the Jewish demonstrators are bused in from right-wing yeshivas in Israel and the West Bank
This year, an Orthodox Jewish man grabbed the Palestinian flag from the hands of a 10 year-old boy and refused to return it. The boy, enraged, tried to prise it out of the Jewish man’s hands. A Border Police officer, seeing the struggle between a 10 year-old Palestinian boy and a fully grown Jewish man, chased the Palestinian boy rather than ordering the Jewish man to return the flag. Someone made a montage of the incident and posted it on Facebook, with commentary. Note the expression of rage in the Border Police officer’s eyes, as seen in the second photo.
In the end the boy got away, due to the intervention of a 22 year-old Israeli activist from Jerusalem named Sahar Vardi, who threw herself in front of the Border Police officer just as he was about to grab the child. Photojournalist Haim Schwarczenberg caught the incident.
The incident was also filmed and the clip posted on Youtube.

notice the people in the background who would rather take pictures than prevent a man from killing a child
Lol reason eight million why I fucking hate reporters, they’re like nasty little vultures, they don’t CARE about these people they care about making bank off their suffering.
Sh…Mello is sleeping!…
Parenting, you’re doing it right.
