June 7, 2014 Mosul
We are experiencing unbearable and unimaginable things. I need a shower and music. I need to put my family in a safe place and leave far away. Our houses are severely damaged. There is no safe place. Every living object is a target for ISIS. We want life.
We are still breathing some Freedom but Mosul is going to a destruction that will change its history forever.
In this very same moment five years ago we were in the street trying to find a shelter.

ISIS is using the same pr-2014 style in Mosul: Threatening people to pay by sending a message by envelope: "Pay or Die". They have
threatened businessmen, doctors, etc.
Three ISIS members were arrested today in Mosul before collecting their extortion.
Same situation in Mosul since 2003 is happening after the "defeat of ISIS" : ISIS. some Security force members, some PMU members, etc are all forcing people to pay protection.
Same problem: People can't repot such incident to the security forces as they fear their names will be leaked to ISIS.

Two Caliphates Fall: Mosul Survives...
“We are Ottomans.”
My grandmother said this in 1996. She came from an old Mosul family that lived in the Bab Lagash neighborhood.
I was 10 years old at the time—it was also the year that I got my first Christian calendar, from a very old bookshop on Al-Najafi Street.
She said this in answer to a question my uncle put to her during their discussion of the distribution of the estate that had been left to them by their ancestors in Mosul. My mother’s share was a part of a small house in the Bab al-Beid section in the old city.

STARING INTO THE MIDDLE DISTANCE

a twitter thread
when we're told how to live, it mostly comes packaged as high level directives

we hear things like: be kind. think of others before yourself. tell the truth

they're good. but they're so far away. they're cosmic
but those cosmic ideas need incarnation

"be kind" doesn't exist in a vacuum

it searches for a concretion

it yearns to become a smile. a word of encouragement. a warm cup of coffee

It’s scary...
Being in high school...
A place where you can feel people judging you.
A place where rumors spread like wildfire.
A place where you try and hide who you are.

Koo Junhoe: the Misunderstood

An appreciation thread.

As we learn about people, we create our own personal versions of them. And so, we can all have different versions of one person. This is Koo Junhoe as seen through my personal lenses.

#iKON #KooJunhoe #JUNE
Our initial versions of different people are defined by simple interactions and first impressions. In a multi-faceted industry that #iKON belong in, it's not often that people get pass this concept.
When they started in this industry, people called him out for his rude, cold and straight face. His masculinity was intrusive and rough in the eyes of the media and of those who barely know him. People refuse to see the other side of that stone-cold face.

Mega Thread of Opinion (1 of 52)

My take on #Election2019, is one that will surprise all #Canadians who will take the #time to read past this #headline. It will be a #long #series of #tweets that will be #purely #honest & straight to the #point.
This #series of tweets will contain #jabs at #voters, the #media & our #political #parties & they are #jabs, that in my own #opinion are #merited. Agree or don’t agree, I won’t care, but it needs to be said to ease my conscience in the lead up to our election!
In 2015, Canada’s #media, declared that #Trudeau & .@liberal_party outflanked the @NDP on leftist policies & for the 1st time in recent history the media supported large deficits & destruction of our country’s finances over a more balanced approach. Let’s stop here for a sec.

1) Dice Placement (Kingsburg). You roll 3 dice, and only can place them on locations equal to a sum of the dice. Combine dice to reach higher locations. Locations are exclusive, so you can block other players from placing there.
2) Friendly Auctions (Evo/Stockpile). All players bid on a number of assets equal to the player count. When someone is outbid, they immediately bid on something else. Ends when everyone bids on something differently, last player usually gets his choice for free.

》》Lay you down

•When it feels so right
It can never be wrong•

For the 1st time, Jimin tries marijuana at a party, enjoying with his friends.

Until he wakes up naked against his bf's big brother, Min Yoongi. The one he was supposed to meet the same day.
☣ Angst and NSFW content. Irrepressible desire. Cheating, lies, culpability, betrayal.

Forbidden but unstoppable feelings.
Jimin didn’t know why he had agreed to come to this party, which was taking place at someone he didn’t even know, with people he didn’t even know.

Maybe because his friends had long insisted that he accompany them.
