Watched the music video and she's using multiple operatic techniques. Her breath control, the portamento, she's phenomenal. 🖤

Grief is exhausting
Knowing people enabled him when I asked them not to has me exceptionally angry today. I asked them to be a friend to him, not support his behavior.
This is Aly. She just learned about capitalism. Certainly not a perfect system, but if that is what it takes to put chippies on the table, she understands. 13/10 (IG: alythebichon)
Jayme Lawson from Sinners hit the nail on the head and said how I felt with the whole BAFTAs situation.
Just spent about 3.5 hours chatting with Johnny’s brother. It was a real roller coaster of emotions, but thankfully, he seems to have gotten a lot out of it too and thanked me for reaching out. Hopefully, next time we can share happier memories.
Sometimes learning something that comes as a massive relief is also something devastatingly sad.
I’ve gotten my mom hooked on pickle wraps. Everyone in this house is getting so much protein.
Nothing sucks like going to buy groceries, realizing you forgot a bill and now don’t have grocery money greaaaaaaat. All of this made worse by vertigo. I fucking give up
Thank you to everyone checking in on me. Things are still as rough as expected.
Advertising your location makes you an easier target AND the U.S. government doesn’t care about you as much as the public does, so the government will likely use your death as a reason to retaliate and escalate.
Assuming you are against what the U.S. is doing: Iran's goal is to hinder the Gulf economy get the Gulf countries to pressure the U.S. to stop attacking. An attack that kills even one American would add public pressure given the media sensation it would create.
For Americans living in Dubai and Abu Dhabi, stop posting photos from apartments saying "all calm here." From those photos people can tell where you live based on the skyline — the exact building and sometimes the exact floor. Don't post photos from your location even if you're not in the photos.
Friends who are in the Middle East who are now getting hit by shaheds, this is advice on some things you need to do. I'm used to these they're an everyday thing. 1. Assume at some point GPS will stop working and locations will spoof due to the need for air defense. If you need to navigate you need to know where you are going or have maps downloaded offline. 2. Turn off the GPS locator on your phone, especially if it's an American phone. If you have a lot of American phones gathered in one location that's a risk. 3. Get water and basic food you can eat without cooking and have enough for a few days. 4. Pack a go bag with water, food, your passport and essential documents, and extra medication. 5. When there are air raids you need to treat these like it's a tornado siren. Go in a basement shelter if you have one. Open your windows so that if there is a hit, your windows won't shatter. If you don't go in a shelter, go in a room without windows (likely a bathroom). 6. Assume you will lose power. You need extra power banks and fully charged devices. Shaheds sound like really loud lawn mowers. Even if they are shot down by air defense they can still crash into buildings.
Advice from my cousin for Americans in the Middle East who are not accustomed to living in a war zone.
Note: this thread is about people exercising safe practices while the U.S. government has put them at risk. It is not a commentary on Iran’s response.
I think first up might be a bad movie night. We had so many bad movies on our list to watch. Tubi was our jam.
Woke up crying. How am I supposed to cope when even sleep isn’t safe?
It’s almost time for fish doorbell, and really, that’s 3rd to FAT BEAR WEEK, and the mullet championships, and I’m sad Johnny isn’t here to enjoy it.
Unexpected grief issue. Sitting at my computer makes me want to vomit.
You can’t tell, but this is about 8-10 inches of hair.
Awake now after a pretty gruesome nightmare. Being awake is just a different nightmare.
Johnny died too soon. HE NEEDED THIS MOMENT
A handful of 6+ inches of pink and purple hair
Yes, I’m doing the grief haircut. You know why? Because when I can barely take care my myself thick wavy waist length hair is just too much to wash and dry.

And the nightmares have begun.
Johnny and me sitting on the steps of a cabin
It’s ridiculous how much we looked like we belonged together.
In short, I appreciate you.
Thank you. I think part of the reason grieving parents always understand the most is because you know it's not simply grieving what was. It’s also grieving everything that was yet to be. You fundamentally understand how grief is both so similar and so different and it takes away a lot of the stigma.
A worthy playlist is going to be HARD though.
