Update!

The guy in this photo is called A'aed Abu Amro. Shortly after this image went viral, he was shot by Israeli Army but someone close to him said he was fine. I couldn’t find anything else about him, not even ways to support him directly. So I’m adding some relevant links to help as many people as we can:

Here’s a thread on twitter with GoFundMe links for Palestinians in need

The Middle East Children’s Alliance (MECA)

Palestine Children’s Relief Fund (PCRF)

Medical Aid for Palestinians

You can find more links to support organizations here!

Please, if you can’t donate, consider taking 5 to 10 minutes to learn about the situation. I know is hard, but you don’t have to do it all at once.

Do you remember Mohammed El-Kurd? His interview with CNN went viral recently. His instagram is linked and you can find ways to support Sheik Jarrah through his linktree. Here’s a direct link for donations.

a noble sacrifice

why is the pressure to be “the bigger person” always placed on the person who was wronged?

“be the bigger person” no. maybe YOU should be a BETTER person.

Acab because the people that made this meme thinks the cops should just kill someone like this

✨Thank you volunteers✨

🌊 Our fin-tastic volunteers at the Monterey Bay Aquarium have been making waves since before our doors even opened in 1984, cumulatively giving over 4.5 million hours of their time! From sea otter rescues to keeping our exhibits sparkling— underwater, no less—they've truly buoyed our spirits and kept us afloat for 40 years. Thank you, volunteers, for your tireless dedication to inspiring conservation of the ocean! 🐠💙🦦🫂

Shit man, this wizard war is fucked. I just saw a guy clap his hands together and say "the ten hells" or some similar shit, and every one around him turned inside out, had their tibia explode and then disappeared. The camera didn't even go onto him, that's how common shit like this is. My ass is casting frostbite and level 2 poison. I think I just heard "power word:scrunch" two groups over. I gotta get the fuck outta here.

Reblogging this again now because DON’T GODDAMN FORGET

As a recovering Capitalism True Believer, and a former aspiring economist… this one hurts.

I was a victim of rape and coerced sex by my apartment neighbor. My abusive family forced and pressured me into reporting it to the cops, despite the man in question being an influential, cis, white, man, and me being a disabled, queer, transmasc BIPOC. There's a drastic disparity in the way our two groups are treated. And the fact that the police will probs question him but not press charges, means he will likely come after me again and now have a grudge against me.

As a result, I am trying to crowdfund to escape this situation and relocate to a neighborhood where I won't be in proximity of this man and the men who were present enabling him. My family, despite insisting I report him, refuse to aid me in breaking my lease, and are actively shaming me for this.

So now, I am presenting you all with my KoFi and asking if you'd be willing to aid me in my attempt to raise money to not only break my lease but also get money to procure a new apartment, as my job not only doesn't cover my bills but doesn't come CLOSE to providing the necessary income to get me a new apartment.

I am also taking commissions at a fairly cheap rate as well. Please consider helping me by getting a commission as well. Have a good day.

If you can't help financially, please consider signal boosting, sharing, and reblogging, thank you so much

Don't get stuck on a scene

Not in the mood to write the scene you’re working on? Don’t worry about it! Make some notes and move on.

There is no shame in just jotting down the main points in a scene and revisiting it later. It’s ok to just not be feeling it sometimes.
