natalie “anxiety spice” toft

I’m becoming convinced that demon possession is a real phenomenon. Because the level and variety of pain, distress, & general wild nonsense happening in this body at any given moment lately is VERY WOW and I’m basically expecting that scene from “Alien” to manifest through me (literally) any second.

An aerial view of Gaza, a gray landscaping of buildings bombed to rubble. Caption below reads: this image was smuggled out of an aid plane flying over Gaza. Israel does not allow journalists on those planes (or anywhere in gaza) because this is what we would see.

Another image very similar to the first. Caption continues: Israel does not allow journalists into Gaza because one day, when they have no choice, the rest of the world will be forced to reckon with what happened there. We will see that it was never about “saving hostages.” We will see that there were no “precision strikes.” We will see that it wasn’t about Israel “defending itself”. We will see what many have always known: it was about flattening Gaza, taking over its land, and killing its people slowly enough that the rest of the world could deny what was happening until it was too late.

Yet another similar image of Gaza destroyed. Caption continues: I will never forget the university presidents who withheld the diplomas of students who protested this. I will never forget the media people who laundered it and the politicians who abetted it so they wouldn’t lose their campaign funding. I hope it haunts them. I hope they hear the wails of Palestinian mothers holding their limp, starving children in every dream they ever have. And even then, there is no justice. Free Palestine.

Caption from original Instagram post: I know this sounds strange, but my first thought when I saw these photos was the children’s book series “where’s Waldo”. The scale of destruction is so vast and impossible to wrap your head around that it tricks your brain the same way those books do to children: each structure appears so tiny that we lose sight of its individual-ness. But we must fight that instinct. Every window of every collapsed building in these images represents an entire universe: a young couple planning their wedding, a university student practicing law, children playing outside their parents’ storefront. Hundreds of thousands of unique dreams, relationships, and human minds forever destroyed. A million little stains on our collective humanity that will never wash out. Photos by @heidi_levine

I said WRONG answers Ted! 🍪

real talk

My dumb face (a plain and average-looking brunette gal with glasses) peering sidelong at the camera in front of a white door

Eleventeen-blousand points if you can guess the thoughts happening inside this head; wrong answers only

Hearting this not only bc I “like” it but to bookmark so I can come back at my leisure & deliberately pore over what is surely a list of Very Important And (at least 99.9%) Correct Opinions

Eyes on the prize, guys; do you wanna install a fascist dictatorship or not?

Ryan is a friend.

If you can help at all during this extra-tough time in a long string of tough times, that would be extremely excellent of you 🩵

No wonder you are so cool 😎

I hate that all these parallels are not even slightly surprising anymore.

i give it a year tops before some administration account is tweeting pro-slavery propaganda

A generous estimate.

💯💯💯

I choose to believe that this little manifestation/spell-casting endeavor was successful, and he’s out there now somewhere, still coughing and sputtering.

I hope he knows, deep down in his unfaithful lil heart, that it was from me ✨💖✨

I don’t mind so much that he’s turning the tariff hose toward Putin atm, but that’s really just a “stopped clock” situation (and another example of his wild reflexive impulses) - we are all at the mercy of the whims of a psychopath with no attention span 🙃

I wish you were wrong but I don’t think you probably are.

💛🤍💜🖤

😂

I think the good doctor just got a little mixed up with his messaging.
The actual platform of this administration is “LET THEM eat cake”.

Good to see you too!

I don’t think it’s the feed; I went dark for a while because I got overwhelmed. Trying to be back on so I can connect with people again. (I am not good at finding balance but I’m working on it!)

Oh okay, got it: When I get kicked off Medicaid and can’t afford care for the ongoing health issues that are literally the reason I can’t work, I will just remember to “Be vital”.

Duh - wish I’d thought of that years ago!

Aww, right back at you, lovely ❤️🥹
Every day.

(…It is kinda funny- years ago this would have seemed like a big deal to me but now it’s nothing compared to everything else - just a really annoying inconvenience that messed up my plans 🙃)

Lol please feel free to set whatever intention your heart knows is right.

Thank you Ted 🩵 (HI!!! 👋🏻)

Fortunately that evening the meds finally kicked in (I’m supposed to take them every day forever but I’d gotten lazy about it …my fault 🙃) and I got to eat dinner just like a real human lady, solid food and everything.
