A Last Moment Of #Warmth Before The #AntiTrans #Storm hits.

The next few years will be hard for #transgender #people. I reflect on my own feelings of warmth after my #wedding to Zooey, #Christmas with my #wife and #family, and the feelings of an uncertain #future.

The freezing cold is unbearable, and the tent only makes it worse. We are truly on the brink of freezing...
God, please protect Ayla for me. This is such a cursed #war.

" #Christmas marks the birth of #Jesus of Nazareth over 2000 years ago in #Bethlehem, #Palestine, in what is now the Israeli Occupied #WestBank

“‘Never again’ should mean never again to all peoples,”…“‘Never again’ has become ‘yet again’—yet again to supremacy, to racism, and to genocide. And sadly, yet again for the weaponization of the Bible and the silence and complicity of the Western #church…”

…why is anyone still debating whether this is a genocide or not?”"

#Christmas marks 15 months since Israel began to pound the Palestinian territory of #Gaza in retaliation for the October 7 Hamas massacre. The only difference for Gaza between Christmas 2023 and 2024 is the death toll. Now more than 45,000, the toll is twice that last Christmas. #thisweekthosebooks repost on Bethlehem goes back in time with two literary giants https://thisweekthosebooks.substack.com/p/bethlehem-gaza-christmas-2024-death-toll-israel

Woman of short hair with a zambomba. The stick of the zambomba goes through the jar of the zambomba breaking it. She puts a super stupid singing face. She is singing "beben y beben y vuelven a beber". Drawn in a cartoonistic style.

BBC.com: Palestinian Christians struggle to find hope at Christmas…

The little town of Bethlehem in the occupied West Bank has good reason to consider itself the capital of Christmas but this year it does not feel like it... BBC news #bethlehem #westbank #gaza #christmas #palestine #israelgazawar #middleeast #newsheadlines

New York Times | In Southern #Lebanon , Trauma and Grief Mark a Somber Christmas. There were no parties this year for the children, no music recitals and no #Christmas tree in the city square. Much of the city is gone. Flattened apartment buildings. Mangled cars. Blown-out and abandoned mom-and-pop stores. After months of Israeli airstrikes, the holiday season began not with celebration, but with funerals as church members tended to their dead.

BBC | Public celebrations of #Christmas have been cancelled for a second year because of the war in #Gaza . Palestinian Christians are only attending religious ceremonies and family gatherings. "It's hard to believe that another Christmas has come upon us and the #genocide has not stopped," Isaac said in his strongly worded sermon. "Decision makers are content to let this continue. To them, Palestinians are dispensable."

Making Christmas cookies in a displacement tent in Gaza

From a makeshift kitchen with a sand floor and a nylon roof, and lacking the most basic equipment, Mayess Hamid prepared Christmas cookies this year.

Hamid, 31, has been making cakes and cookies for about 10 years, working at one of Gaza’s largest cake shops before it was destroyed in Israel’s continuing war on the besieged enclave.

“I wanted to start the year with optimism and make Christmas cookies to distribute to the children around me in the camp,” she says as she kneads.

Making cookies was challenging because of basic food shortages that are so severe that some parts of Gaza are in famine.

💬 "The real price of #Christmas peace and joy.

These two photos were taken in #Lviv today 30 minutes apart.

The first one shows the funeral of a soldier 💔.

The second one - Christmas festivities.

This is the duality of life in #Ukraine now."
