I can barely connect to the internet for a few minutes at a time They didn’t just kill tens of thousands of people, they killed hope, youth, and joy in the rest of us too. After what we witnessed on January 8–9, 2026, returning to ‘normal’ feels impossibly far away to me I lost my only source of income with the shutdown I lost my plans and my hope for the future and you know, I’m just one of millions of young Iranians These days I spend my time searching for hope, trying to hold onto it but I haven’t found it yet I don’t know if I ever will What I do know is that those scenes will never leave my memory, and I don’t know what life is suppose to mean after that Anyway, thank you to all my friends who remembered me I miss you too and honestly, proud to have you in my community 💙 @0ffline @bribe @trebor69 @cptbased @pugson @haniz.eth @bitsizzle @maryamm13 @angelikakollin @zahrash @kolin And all those who mentioned or DMed me here or on IG
