Hundreds of Hungarian Jews had to leave their shoes on the bank before they were shot into the river by Hungarian militaimen during the World War II.

When fear crawls out in the evenings from all four corners, when the winter storm raging outside tells you it is winter, and that it is difficult to live in the winter, when my soul trembles at the sight of distant fantasies, I shiver and say one word with every heartbeat, every pulse, every piece of my soul—liberation. In such moments it hardly matters where it is going to come from and who will bring it, so long as it’s faster and comes sooner. Doubts are growing in my soul. Quiet! Blessed be he who brings good news, no matter from where, no matter to where. Time, go ahead. Time, which carries liberation in its unknown tomorrow…maybe not for me, but for people like me. The result is certain. Down with any doubts. Everything comes to an end. Spring will come.

Elsa Binder, 30 January 1942, from Salvaged Pages: Young Writers’ Diaries of the Holocaust (edited by Alexandra Zapruder)

Elsa Binder wrote eloquently and passionately about the destruction of the Jewish community in Stanislawow, Poland. Her diary was found in a ditch on the way to an execution site. Though it is likely she perished in the Holocaust, the date and circumstances of her death remain unknown.

he has some awesome lines, and I really like what they’ve done with his character.

went to a music festival yesterday, and they had feather hair extensions on sale …for $14. I’m not sure if this is a good deal…especially when I’ve just boguht a kindle, but all the same I’m tempted, they’re so pretty! What do y’all think?

Now every girl is expected to have Caucasian blue eyes, full Spanish lips, a classic button nose, hairless Asian skin with a California tan, a Jamaican dance hall ass, long Swedish legs, small Japanese feet, the abs of a lesbian gym owner, the hips of a nine-year-old boy, the arms of Michelle Obama, and doll tits. The person closest to actually achieving this look is Kim Kardashian, who, as we know, was made by Russian scientists to sabotage our athletes.

“Soo the original picture for this compares pictures of thinner, lithe women with vintage photos of women with curvier figures and reads “When did this….become hotter than this?” I’ve seen it on my facebook news feed numerous times and the blatant thin shaming didn’t sit well with me, so I decided to make my own version and post it on my wall. I also reported the original image, which had over 60,000 ‘likes.’ I invite anyone else who has seen this image on facebook to do the same. “

THANK you.

thankyou! I’m ‘too big’ and my sister’s ‘too small’ but actually we’re both within the healthy range, and neither of us appreciates the judging.
