I've seen 'profs' trying to reap Kurdish money for their interests in the guise of 'supporting Palestine'. I've seen a 'privileged prof' being dishonest&using my grant. I don't suggest anyone in pro-Palestinian circles to take an anti-Kurdish stance. Be careful abt opportunists in your circles!

"There’s a lot going on in Castigation, beginning with allusions to myth, scripture, the plays of Oscar Wilde and William Shakespeare, and centuries’ worth of history. But for all the ambition of this novel’s conceptual framework, it also taps into something very primal. . ."

After 48 hours of a severe #migraine attack with persistent vomiting, I’m finally back on my feet. A private prescription for the medication I was using in the US made all the difference. Since 2023, I've moved here, do not ask me how I've survived! Despite all, life is still beautiful #keepgoing

Off to London soon to have a meeting at the Kurdistan Regional Government Office. We will see how far you can go in the UK. I know working-class culture, but 'this is something else...' All right, you want this fight as you attack me when I walk alone. This is wtf you're. Let's see how this ends..
