I have planted some trees in the Hyrcanian forests, but I don't know where my trees are. The constant thought that my trees might be burning is really bothering me.

I'm not using the word "citizen" so much because cities have more stakeholders than just "citizens," such as non-humans, even. Residents can be more than citizens; however, official documentation makes me stressed because I feel I have to use a language that I don't believe.

Every system discriminates. I'm stuck waiting for something that, if I were a different person, I'd already have.

Finnish is way harder for me than German or French, but it aligns with my gender identity so much more.

One of my most beloved places is gone. Lake Urmia vanished in just 40 years under this government. Imagine erasing 13 millennia of life, beauty, and memory. I'm grieving.

Woke up at 6 with a question I keep asking myself:
Should I keep trying now, when our future and lives don't matter to politicians - when I could die, be homeless, or lose everything I've built tomorrow, next week, or next month?

I don't understand when some people ask why we didn't revolt during the Israel-Iran war. In the Women, Life, Freedom movement, I felt brave and could imagine a better future, but during the war I was only thinking about the moment - and how to survive.

After five days without internet in the war, I came online. In the darkness and sound of missiles I kept repeating, "I'm not alone." But when I finally connected, I understood: we're alone.

The only thing that I'm scared of is the war. I couldn't sleep yet. It's seriously a war - I'm not sure if we survive.😭

Sending emails to professors about visa rejection is the saddest academic experience I've ever had. Just focusing on Europe now. Hope it gets better:((

Didn't enjoy Dubai much: 1) Malls are designed to keep you shopping - no benches, exclusionary vibes. 2) No eating/ drinking in public? Felt more restrictive than welcoming.
