Greta Thunberg, deported to Greece, says the targeting of the Sumud Flotilla is "not the story" @teenvogue.com — instead, she says:

"Israel once again violated international humanitarian law by preventing aid from getting into Gaza while people are being starved.”

Greta Thunberg On Her Detention: I'm "Not The Story" — It's Israel Violating International Humanitarian Law

“I could talk for a very, very long time about our mistreatment and abuses in our imprisonment. Trust me. But that is not the story.”

Clocked in for a few hours this evening to get ahead as I took the afternoon off tomorrow to get a massage and go to the spa. Exams are in 2 weeks and I need to be in top shape.

Yep.

Congratulations, dear!!! Have a wonderful day! 🎉❤️

I miss the internet before social media. My friend group and I had a private forum on Caramail and we would put the stupidest shit on there. There is one lost long ass story that my friend wrote about Sauron cooking pasta and shit in which he ends up being defeated in a sink garburator accident.

So excited for you, Erin!!! ❤️❤️

This time last year I was miserable because of my then undiagnosed severe lactose intolerance and I was not able to enjoy spooky season at all. This year is completely different thanks to a lactose-free diet and new medication. I'm so happy to finally feel like a normal human being again.

Rikku AB @rikkuab.bsky.social · 13d

So sad.

I'm losing my mind reading R2's comments! What the heck even is ''dark money''?!?!?

Rikku AB @rikkuab.bsky.social · 16d

What the hell is ''dark money''?!?! R2 has lost their mind and is clearly unfit to provide objective reviews.

Just got rejected from the Journal of Medical Ethics. It was pretty illuminating in terms of how far society has fallen.

One thing about corporate law is that it's not super complicated but it's so beyond boring that my brain refuses to store the information.

Been feeling really low about myself lately. I feel guily for feeling this way because I have so many things to be grateful for and I don't want to sound like I'm complaining. I guess I just want to be appreciated for who I am and not for how I'm perceived.
