I think you can be sad and relieved at the same time. But i don’t think there is any reason to try to feel sad. I grew up to be jaded in a lot of ways and there are a lot of situations where as people we are expected to have an emotional response but I unabashedly own up to my lack of care and don’t even try to fake it in the slightest. I somehow think that disingenuous grieving is worse than no grieving at all. And don’t feel guilty for feeling relieved either, you suffered a lot with this person in your life, and you shouldn’t keep suffering after this person is gone. Reclaim that mental space for yourself and allow yourself to breathe.

But for the student anti-war protests gripping the US, the words “Zionist” and “Zionism” have become a watchword – pejorative and emblematic of the violent state policies driving...
It took me way too long to realize that all words and grammar were made up by some one at some point while they were being silly. Ever since then I came to the conclusion that people can speak however the fuck they want so long as I understand them.
