If you are unable to afford donating, this link allows you to click a button every 24 hours in order help donate to Palestine.

American mutuals, I seriously urge you to tell Congress and Biden to stand with Palestine, and do not stop sending this message. You can also donate here.

This is not a war; what Israel is doing to Palestine is genocide. Do not sit idly by and do not stay quiet. Now more than ever is the most important time to not look away.

Another trusted charity link to aid in emergency funds to Gaza amidst the bombings.

Americans! Another way to contact your government representatives is to text "Resist" to 50409 or use this link to contact them.

Palestine Emergency Appeal set up by mariyyum, who also posts reliable, live updates of Gaza.

AMERICANS. THIS IS ANOTHER WAY TO CONTACT YOUR REPRESENTATIVES. PLEASE URGE THEM TO SIGN FOR THE CEASEFIRE IN GAZA. PLEASE TELL THEM TO SAVE GAZA.

listen. This topic is extremely upsetting for me personally, but I need, NEED to reblog this. I’m sorry to anyone who doesn’t want politics on their stream but I beg of you. You don’t need to donate if you don’t have the money (like me), but please write to your political representatives if you are American.

Thank you, and remember that you SHOULD NOT, and do not need to, apologise for putting this on anyone's dash. Palestine NEEDS to be heard, they NEED our help in any form possible. The first link costs nothing at all, and the letters to our reps take under a minute to send.

Frankly some of you should be hornier over weirder shit. The fear of being too genuine is the enemy of art. Be a bit of a pervert. It's good for the health. Doesn't have to be a sexual thing just own up to being a bit obsessed in some cringe shit it's fine.

girl typing a very specific question into google search bar, scrunching her face as she takes time to make sure she hasn't made any spelling errors, hitting enter, shaking her head as google only presents her with unhelpful websites that don't answer her query at all, moving her cursor back to the search bar and clicking on it so she can carefully write 'reddit' at the end, hitting enter again, sighing with relief as she finds a link to a reddit post asking the exact question she needed answered posted in a subreddit for a very niche topic, finally moving her cursor to click on the link, wondering why she didn't go straight to the subreddit earlier, only to be met with a deleted comment with a reply from the OP stating 'that was very helpful, thanks', sighing with frustration as she moves her cursor back to the search bar so she can copy the link and paste it into the wayback machine,

Replace "reddit" with "reveddit" in any reddit url to reveal deleted or removed comments. If the comment/post was deleted too quickly after it was posted, it may not pull it up, but it works most of the time

girl after reading a post on tumblr dot com with a reblog by user impossiblepackage, moving her cursor over to the url of the aforementioned reddit post, using her mouse to highlight the word “reddit”, typing out the word “reveddit” in its place, hitting enter, waiting with bated breath as reveddit loads, finally content as the deleted comment is displayed in front of her eyes containing the information she sought for so long.

the way people are taught programming today continues to drive me insane insane insane

unlimited abstraction. the ultimate sandbox. the lever with which the heavens were moved. the lifeblood of the gods who control us today. yet you're chained in plato's cave - no space to grow your own crops. no structure to build. no love. Solve My For Loop Puzzle Boy. Solve My Inheritance Puzzle Girl. you get to play with none of the divine spark. you don't get to play at all. there's no composition. there's no composition. you build fragments. you don't get to connect them. don't worry about how they link up into structures. don't look up into the churning monolith too long. just keep swinging that hammer.

if you're reading this: please. write programs that spark joy. build things that interest you - sloppy, first. you can always learn to scaffold later. step off the damned beaten path. build things. read manuals. frolic. find out about fucked-up ways to abuse the language you use. create something you love. there's whimsy to be found yet. take my hand - one day we'll be free to forge our own paths.

"reached" does not feel like a real word. it feels like it should be "roach" but it's not.

"i reached my hand out to him" - sounds like someone is about to correct your grammar on your conjugation of "reach" but you are correct

"i roach my hand out to him" - sounds correct based upon similar verb conjugations but it is not

@space-mouse oughhhhhhhhh i love that

Ok, weird - I'm not judging! I'm not a native speaker of English and OP is, and I'm a proponent of grammar being descriptive, so this is just a question:

To me it sounds wrong because of the hand and reach being an intransitive verb? "I reached out to him" is already with a hand. "I reached out to him with my right hand" if it's supposed to be specific.

wait i can answer this

reach is a transitive verb, because you can physically reach out with more than just your hand and because reach has multiple meanings

reach can mean the physical action of reaching out a body part or object ("i reached the stick out to him), it can mean communicating with someone ("i reached out to him and he never got back to me"), it can mean arriving ("i reached the next town at 6 pm"), or it can mean getting access to ("the beach can only be reached by car")

when you say "i reached out to him," you only know what type of "reach" is meant depending on context -- and thus the object of "my hand" is implied as a direct object

hope this explains it !

A secret rendezvous in the castle halls! 8) 

Okay i have to talk about this because it drives me fucjing INSANE every time i see it.

First off the tenderness??? Of the kings expression????? Coupled with the knights expression, eyes closed, lips parted, but with the king’s thumb on his chin thats plausible deniability right there baby. In the shadow of a doorway, too, off course theyd be that close if the knight were pulling the curtains aside for his king, nothing to see here. The hand on the kings wrist– is he trying to pull the king closer? Push him away? Hold him right there in that transient moment, that liminal space, the only place they are allowed this tender intimacy??????
