happy 80th birthday to the cunt king!!!
As pride month begins, let us not forget our Palestinian brothers and sisters.
Thank you @tootiredtoosadtooangry for the extra translations!
[ID: several photos of om the website Queering The Map, all focusing on the Gaza Strip. Theee of the entries have Arabic in them. The separate, above addition is a screenshot of tags by @/tootiredtoosadtooangry, who wrote translations for the sentences in English—their translations added to the appropriate entries. They follow:
I'm from rafah and she's from deir al balah, she got married later and i left gaza strip, to this day i think of you, to this day i wish to be back to sleep with you in the same bed, i want you to call for my name again, i wish if i can be with you again my heart. [i love you and despite what happened you're always in my mind]
Realizing the feelings i had for you were more than adoration, realizing that wanting to see you everyday, to be with you and talk to you, for you to call me by my petname that you gave me, i miss you beyond words can describe, i wish if i had the courage to tell you but again i was scared, I didn't want to cause you any trouble. Now both of us outside gaza strip, but much far a way from each other. [i love you and in my mind/imagination you love me too]
I wish I could watch the sunset over Gaza sea with you. For one night I wish this occupation was no longer and that we could be free for once on our own land.
This is where I first fell for you. It was 2021, the last major Israeli bombardment on Gaza. You never knew you were the reason that I first listened to my favorite bands or watched Portrait of a Lady on Fire. everything comes back to you. now you are a student abroad and Israeli occupation bombs may take everyone and everything you ever loved away. Your mom, your home, your memories. I am so sorry the world failed you. that your mom, sister, best friends, everything is lost in this genocide.
[I don't know] how long I will live so I just want this to be my memory here before I die. I am not going to leave my home, come what may. My biggest regret is not kissing this one guy. He died two days back. We had told how much we like each other and I was too shy to kiss last time. He died in the bombing. I think a big part of me died too. And soon I will be dead. To younus, i will kiss you in heaven.
The place where you died, even though we were only penpals, I love you to my core, 5 years of the best friendship. Ahmad died of the airstrike, you died of heartbreak. Khalid, I love you, I loved the way you came out to me, how I came out to you, how you introduced Ahmad as your boyfriend, I wanted to share your hurts with me, but we're seas apart, I'll free Palestine just for your eyes. I hope you rest well in heaven, kiss Ahmad all you want, and be very happy, in this life or another I'll follow you, and we can unite, I love you to Icarus and beyond 💗
A place were I kissed my first [crush]. Being gay in Gaza is hard but somehow it was fun. I made out with a lot of boys in my neighborhood. I thought everyone is gay to some level.
I've always imagined you and me sitting out in the sun, hand and hand, free at last. We spoke of all the places we would go if we could. Yet you are gone now. If I had known that bombs raining down on us would take you from me, I would have gladly told the world how I adored you more than anything. I'm sorry I was a coward.
The last entry is entirely in Arabic. Underneath it is a screenshot from Google translate, which reads: “The only thing that keeps me patient in Gaza is the sea and you”. @/tootiredtoosadtooangry wrote in their tags: ‘#i would also translate the last one as: the only thing giving me patience to live in gaza is the sea and you. #though patience here more accurately refers to strength. #the strength to handle something” END ID]
