The group this was posted in has been advertised to me several times on FB, and I think it's important to know where it's from- the group is called Dull Men's Club (gender neutral though, their rules explain the name was kept from the I think 80s when they started and had separate groups but anyone that believes in and agrees to abide by their rules can join).

The group's major conceit is only this: finding joy in ordinary (see: dull) things.

And they often do

Hi everyone I just wanted to mention that the clicks have significantly dropped in number since the 1st quarter of this year

I know the month isn’t over yet, but 36,125 vs the previous few months is a lot less. I understand that 1 click = 1 lebanese pound, which is about .0011 of a US penny, but remember it doesn’t hurt or take more than a couple minutes to click. It still helps. If you can donate money to gofundmes or organizations that will help, please also do that!

If you don’t understand why they need clicks rather than just donating: much of the funding comes from running ads, to ensure they get ad revenue, they need people to see the ads. The only way to make sure they do is by counting clicks. Click for the other causes too if you can, a few moments out of your day will add up with everyone else’s clicks.

1st quarter of this year (January-March) they were able to donate $661.82 from 992,735 clicks

Again, I know it’s not a lot per click but remember it is going to real people who do not have a choice right now and need any help they can get.

If you can donate real money to the causes, please do, but please do both. Palestinians are worth it. Palestine will be freed.

correction: it's actually .0011 of a penny (USD), not .011, but please don't let that deter you at all. I also added image IDs. I am not experienced with those, so if you have suggestions on how I can improve them, feel free to let me know.

thinking about how bigotry has gotten even more overt in recent years to the point where queer/characters of color/fat characters can simply exist and will be seen as the "evil woke agenda" and not real life people who exist 😭

just, imagine being so blinded by hatred and racism that you forget people different than you exist and want to be represented as well.

Dear god please let housing become affordable here and please make this force the thousands of sitting-duck properties re-enter the market at drastically reduced prices for native families to be able to purchase and then live in their homeland 😭 kū kia‘i ‘āina

please don't buy keffiyah from unknown sources

for example: lots of keffiyah are being sold on amazon by chinese fast fashion companies

please buy keffiyah from palestinian sources

if you can't for some reason, please consider the most ethical choice you possibly can, or just donating the money you would have spent on one to a gaza supporting organization instead

My favourite part of this is there are no translation errors in this picture. The fish is a bottom feeder that’s called kinki in Japanese, Channel Rockfish in English, and the Mandarin name is actually honest to god Idiot Fish (okay, maybe Silly Fish, but silly as a word is more…. loveable, doesn’t quite capture the full rage and frustration at whoever you’re terming “傻瓜”)

Also the form of estrogen they prescribed trans women in the 90s, Premarin, looked like this.

And lest there be any remaining doubt.. remember the blue pill? The pill Neo could have taken to forget the truth, bury his troubles and go back to living a normal life, without fearing a system that wanted to destroy him? The pill that was easy, perhaps cowardly according to some, but comfortable? Here’s Prozac.

For a trans woman in the 90s, where the choice was be safe, suppress, cope, and pretend everything is still how it was, or embrace the danger, accept the truth, realize your full potential, and transition into a world that still thinks you’re a joke and would rather have you dead…. well. The metaphor is pretty fucking clear.

So I was watching a video on ptarmigans and it was mentioned that they dig burrows in the snow for shelter and protection. Which, cool! Burrowing bird! Then they showed this picture and

It's perfect

I only discovered the existence of ptarmigans a couple of months ago and I I was so delighted I had to draw one immediately

We can all only aspire to be this round and fuzzy
