I Present To You All Vampire Elliott.

I present to you all vampire Elliott.

Now tell me he won’t be vegan.

He’d drink the red from pomegranates marceline style.

He can’t even hurt a spider what makes you think he’d do that

But if he does drink blood..

This drawing is still not finished but wanted to share it anyways

There is a heart wrenching video of a father who went to buy biscuits for his son only to return and find out his son and the man's wife had both been killed by an Israeli air strike. He is seen putting the pack of biscuits in his son's hand and saying "take it with you to heaven".

There is an indescribable pain to all of this, and I don't know what Israel thinks it's doing by ripping everyone's heart out like this if not to make the whole world resent the mere mention of it.

I don't think the question we should be asking at this point is "how do you justify this?" anymore, even if rhetorically. We need to understand that it is simply irrational to expect an occupying power that built itself on ethnic cleansing to provide any means of reasoning.

This is genocide, you don't debate genocide and you don't rationalise genocide.

I don't care what you do, but speaking about Palestine doesn't suffice anymore. Speak louder, force people to have uncomfortable conversations, call whoever the heck your representative is, go out to rallies if you can, push others to do the same - this is unlike anything we have seen.

Vincent has Ciel go to a psychologist to talk about his trauma. (Ciel isn't thrilled, but it's part of a series of deals he and Vincent make over the Watchdog and head of household position. In this particular one, Ciel maintains complete management of certain lands in exchange for going to therapy.)

The doctor plays word association games. When he says, "Father," Ciel blurts out, "Sebastian."

My sister is among those affected. Before the 7th of October, she was denied treatment by the Israeli military. Her pregnancy is considered high-risk. The doctors in Gaza warned her that during delivery, she, the child, or both might die. When she sought medical treatment outside Gaza, the Israeli military denied her permission to leave, not once but twice, in July and then in August — not in October. Now, she is displaced in Rafah with her two children and husband. She is ill. Her home in Gaza City is completely destroyed. My question is, what could possibly lead these people to deny a pregnant woman treatment or food? What kind of morals or hearts can allow this...?

Sebastian: The young master seems quite unsettled by your return.

Vincent: That's understandable. Nevertheless, I'm sure that with time he and I can become a family again.

Sebastian: Perhaps. Although please remember that he is not the only person you need to convince.

Vincent: You've made your distaste quite clear, but you'd do well-

Sebastian: Me? Oh, well, yes. Me too, I suppose.

In the kitchen...

Mey Rin: So how do we test to see if he's a zombie?

Baldroy: We tie him up and throw him in the water! If he floats, he's a zombie. If he sinks, he's human.

Snake: That's witches, not zombies, says Emily.

Finny: And it sounds awfully mean.
