  • I know that I sound cringe right now saying “as a muslim ☝️🤓” but honor killings still exist, even in western puppet states like Jordan.

    I remember when I was little hearing my Mom cry in the living room and I asked her what happened. A Jordanian woman went on a walk with her fiance and his friend spread rumors about them going alone somewhere and her family ended up killing her. It was big news at the time. It’s not normalized, neither are child marriages, but they still occur which is an issue sadly.

    American politics are purely based on identity that this point. To the liberal mind, there are only two teams, and you’re on the other team unless you give your undying loyalty to your team.

    I have so many coworkers who think me criticizing the sitting president or his heir to throne makes me a republican. Any possible grievance I have will be countered with “but trump will be worse?! Check mate.”

    Every single person I know who spent a semester abroad is even more insufferable. They will talk about this trip to europe the rest of their life, inserting it into every conversation to give them a false sense of being well traveled.
