in a polyamorous relationship:
A is sick, so B and C decide to make soup for them and share their concerns on A's health
it's A's birthday and B and C are cooking a surprise meal together
all partners cook together and there's chaos in the kitchen
alternatively:
i see you struggling with cooking so i join to help you out
we both don't know how to cook but let's just try i've heard it's fun
i'm going to teach you how to cook because 'no offence but you're not very good at it'
we just want to try a new hobby together and cooking seems like a good option
we're cooking for a good cause (donation, etc)
we're a couple who are all about food and try different techniques to explore the vast realm of cooking
let's skip the restaurant and cook instead for our date
i'm dating a chef
covering the other with a blanket when they fall asleep on the couch
making playlists/mixtapes/cassettes for the other
showing the other a meme/video that reminds them of them
smiling at each other from across the room
teasing each other good-naturedly
laying their hand on the other’s leg
embracing them from behind
talking about how much they love the other to their friends/family
giving the other the comfy seat in the car/kitchen/living room/etc.
plugging in the other’s phone when they fall asleep
bringing the other leftovers
rubbing the other’s back when it hurts
looking in each other’s eyes during a conversation
taking a photo of the other smiling or in their element
doing the other’s hair
doing the other’s laundry/dishes
changing the lyrics of a song so it says the other’s name
buying the other something small they mentioned they wanted
winking at the other
putting an arm around the other’s shoulder
letting the other have the umbrella/hoodie
bumping the other’s shoulder when they say something funny
ruffling their hair
laying their head on the other’s shoulder
squeezing the other’s shoulder
fixing the other’s clothes
cleaning the house when the other is at work
leaving cute notes for the other on the fridge
asking the other how their day was
hyping the other up before they do something big
I'm reading again about the early days of the 1948 Nakba, and I'm just... at loss for words (cw: rape, child murder)
The Ethnic Cleansing of Palestine, by Ilan Pappé (2006, p. 90)
And, continuing on p. 91:
Original
staring at each other’s eyes and getting lost in their gaze
staring at someone from the corner of your eyes
and quickly turning away when they return your gaze
scented candles
matching necklace and rings
random “this made me think about you”s
“uh, so i find *your favourite character* very neat…tell me more about them?”
getting your lover a flowerpot
and when they ask laughing, “why are so extra? you could have just brought a flower”
you gently reply, “i want our love to grow and blossom, not to be a temporary pleasure, beloved.”
subconsciously linking little fingers
gentle reminders about how much they love you
long letters that talk about every silly to deep topics
interest exchange <3
saving their name as “my beloved <3″
soft stares and silly grins
nuzzling your sleepy head into their chest
playing with their hair
handmade cards
pouting when they say they have to leave for the day
Here’s an invaluable writing resource for you.
Footage of Israeli occupation forces in the West Bank city of Jenin today (June 22) with an injured Palestinian man strapped to the hood of their military jeep.
The term you're thinking of is human shield, and this is not even the first time we have had visual evidence of this happening.
Every accusation is a glaring admission of guilt. This is what I mean when I say these deranged psychopaths relish in their impunity.
This is why your calls for justice in Palestine should be all-encompassing. While Israel is bombing every inch of Gaza, it is simultaneously raiding villages in the West Bank, executing children, and kidnapping and subjecting Palestinians to unspeakable violence, an example of which is in this video.

"Why are you all just standing there? Help them!"
Leader's grip is firm as they grab Caretaker's shoulder, stopping them from running to Whumpee's side.
"That's not Whumpee," Leader says.
Whumpee, lying curled up on the floor in front of the team, lets out a pitiful sob. There's a puddle of blood under them and it's growing too fast but no one is doing anything and Caretaker wants to scream.
"What do you mean?" Whumpee tries to sit up but fails as they put weight on their clearly broken wrist. They settle for staring up at Leader, eyes wide and full of tears. "It is me. Please, I need help!"
Laeder's hand is shaking on Caretaker's shoulder.
"This is what Whumper does," Leader says, their voice haunted. "Whumpee doesn't even know it, but there's a monster planted in their mind, and it's already taken over. It's sleeping right now but it'll wake up the second we take them inside and then we're all done for."
"But they're hurt," Caretaker insists. "We have to help them. We don't know that they're going to turn on us."
"Why else would Whumper just give them back to us? I'd rather not wait until one of us is being stabbed in our sleep to find out."
Whumpee is outright crying now, something Caretaker has never seen them do so openly. "I won't! I promise I won't! I'll be good. Please, I just wanna go home. It hurts so bad."
Leader turns away, pulling Caretaker with them. "Trust me," they whisper. "I've been down this road before. It's not worth it. They can't be saved."
"But-"
"Whumpee's dead. That's a ghost."

I think this is the 3rd time they've killed the commander of the anti tank operations, a real position that definitely exists
