Partner showed me what dog bowls were (like the fitness food) and it made me realize that men will have the basics of cooking down but be unable to expand it into a decent meal. They will not season it. Most the time it's girls seasoning their bfs dog bowls. Rice, beef and veggies can make a killer meal if you know how to assemble it. Put it in a fucking tortilla, add some seasoning in your beef. MAKE SOUPS! Find healthy pasta if that's more your speed. Just fucking learn to cook! Learn to cook not just to fuel yourself but because you want to enjoy the food. Stop making eating seem like a punishment by making this bland, boring pile of rice and beef.

Catholic or not, the death of Pope Francis is a hit to global politics. Now more than ever we need the head of religious states oppose the rising oppressive powers. May the gods have Francis in their love and hands.

My Journey to Escape the War in Gaza

My name is Abdelmajed. I never imagined I’d be sharing my story like this, but life in Gaza has become unbearable. I am a survivor of the war here, and in the blink of an eye, everything I once knew—my home, my safety, my community—was ripped away from me.

The war has transformed Gaza into a graveyard of broken dreams. The buildings that once stood as symbols of life and resilience are now piles of rubble. Every corner is filled with the echoes of explosions. Every moment is shrouded in uncertainty. There is no security. There is no stability. There is no light at the end of the tunnel.

Basic needs have become luxuries. Food is scarce. Clean water is even scarcer. Hospitals are overwhelmed and under-resourced, and there is almost no medical care to be found. Every night, families go to bed hungry, praying they’ll wake up to see another day. The cost of basic necessities has skyrocketed, and it’s become a daily battle just to survive.

I’ve seen things I never thought possible—standing in long lines for a piece of bread, rationing every drop of water, and watching my people suffer in silence. I have lost everything—my home, my safety, my dignity.

Escape from Gaza is my only hope, but it’s almost impossible without financial help. The cost of evacuation is far beyond my means, and without support, I’m trapped in a warzone with no way out.

I’m reaching out to you now, in the hopes that someone, anyone, can help. I am not asking for luxury. I am asking for a chance—just a chance—to live. A chance to escape this never-ending cycle of fear, destruction, and loss. A chance to rebuild my life somewhere safe, where I can begin again, where I can find hope once more.

Any amount you can give will help me get closer to safety. Even the smallest donation will make a difference—it could be the lifeline I need to survive. If you are unable to donate, please share my story. The more people who hear it, the better the chance that I can find the support I desperately need.

Your kindness and support mean the world to me. You’re not just helping me escape a war; you’re giving me a chance to live, to rebuild, to breathe again.

Thank you for listening. Thank you for caring.

🌍✨ A Voice from Gaza: Fighting for Hope ❤️‍🩹

Hi, my name is Mosab , and I’m from Gaza. Life here has been harder than I could ever imagine, but today I’m sharing my story with hope in my heart, because your kindness has already given us so much strength.

This journey hasn’t been easy. The war has taken 25 family members from us—25 beautiful souls we loved deeply. Their laughter, their presence, their love… all of it is gone, leaving behind memories that are both precious and painful. Every day, I carry the weight of their loss, but I also carry their spirit, which gives me the strength to keep going.

Our Journey So Far

When I first reached out, I couldn’t have imagined we’d make it this far. Your support has been a light in these difficult times, and we are so deeply grateful for every single contribution.

But the road ahead is still challenging. Every day, we’re reminded of how much we’ve lost and how much we still need to rebuild.

Here’s what life in Gaza looks like for my family right now:

🏠 Safety: The uncertainty of tomorrow weighs heavily on us.

😢 Loss: The absence of the 25 family members we’ve lost is a pain we carry every moment.

💔 Dreams on Hold: The future feels so far away when survival takes all our strength.

How You Can Help Us Cross the Finish Line Even the smallest act of kindness can make a difference:

$5 may seem small, but for us, it’s a little relief, a moment of comfort, and a reminder that kindness still exists. ❤️

Can’t donate? Reblog this post to help us reach someone who can. Every share matters more than you know.

Why Your Support Matters Your kindness isn’t just about helping us meet our goal—it’s about reminding us that we’re not alone in this fight. It’s about hope. It’s about survival. And it’s about giving my family a chance to rebuild our lives, even in the face of unimaginable loss.

Thank you for helping us get this far. Your generosity and compassion have already brought us closer to a better tomorrow, and for that, I’m endlessly grateful.

With all my love and gratitude,

Mosab and Family ❤️

I've been thinking about Sadie Killer and the Suspects and especially about the fact that they were seemingly getting kinda big? Like they'd started touring and stuff. I love thinking about the fact that they definitely had some fans from their first show in empire city who were like omg they preform in a nearby town sooo often, I have to go.

And then like they go to a few shows and the band just regularly has this random teenager come out and sing with them? And every time they introduce him like "our friend and yours!" And he has the fakest sounding last name and is a great singer?? And yet he doesn't exist online at all except for in some weird mockumentary about aliens? And then you look up 'singer universe' or something and a guy who looks so much like the bands manager shows up who was a minor rising star who just disappeared except for one of his songs that got made into a jingle.

Im gonna be so real can yall actually talk about ways we can support trans women in the UK instead of giving all the attention to fucking JKR. I already know that Harry Poter sucks, I wanna know how to actually HELP people. Something something you have to love the oppressed more than you hate the oppressor

a big lesson for me was learning that most things are not as fragile as I’d believed. missing a class, or turning in a bad assignment, won’t instantly destroy your professor’s opinion of you. accidentally saying something harsh won’t make your friend want to end the friendship. it takes work to repair these things - it takes effort and research and sometimes a sincere apology - but you can do that because they’re not irreparably broken. what you’ve worked to build, in academia and in relationships and in life, is stronger and more enduring that your mind may teach you to believe. don’t let imagined fragility lead you to giving up

Ok sorry I'm immediately on your askbox talking abt your post but I saw this reel: https://www.instagram.com/reel/DGejnBfPN4E/?igsh=MXVtZ3phd2Jsc21hbA==

And immediately thought of Ghost taking his lolita fashion gf to the gym with him 😔🙏

I agree 100%! He's there in all black, and suddenly his gf is in her gym coord and is like... lifting heavier weights than he does. Ghost likes women who could spar with him, he likes to tussle. And having a Lolita gf who can not only keep up with him but also beat him on occasion? Cute gf with muscles? Oh dude is in heaven. Man loves his girl who wears bright pink to do her squats and wears her less nice dresses to the gym (she claims it's so they still get used and worn. Sure, buddy)

He's that audio from tmnt 2012. Iykyk

Just had the thought of 141 with very feminine partners. In all different ways mind you, but still feminine.

Price fell in love with a girl who bakes and cooks alot, very kind hearted. Volunteers everyday for the community. He wears her pretty floral dresses as her hair is usually in a braid. She mothers 141 like her own babies and spoils them rotten. The boys always have a place to sleep with "Ma" (Soap called her that once and it stuck). Price doesn't know what he'd do without his 'pretty girl.' She is literally the reason he is not both homeless and/ or in jail for not doing his taxes or taking care of his property.

Gaz probably goes for a dark feminine kinda girl. Think Morticia Addams. Elegant outfits, glamorous makeup. Gaz doesn't care if people judge him or question their relationship. He's the one sitting on a vintage velvet couch drinking red with his wife while she explains why Frankenstien is a literary masterpiece. She has long coffin nails, and Gaz frequently comes to work with a black or deep red lipstick stain on his cheek or collar. Dude gets a whole wardrobe makeover because he used to dress like Adam Sandler on his days off. Now he looks like Gomez Addams with the nice shirts and pants. People have asked if they are a mafia family. Bonus points if his wife is taller and he's shorter.

Ghost and a Lolita girl. He unironically fucks with the dresses and the heels and the cute bonnets and hair pieces. Man learns how to do hair and actively buys her COORD and will 100% hold her bag whenever she needs to do something. Woman has her wallet and his heart in the palm of her hand. Ghost has frequently come home with new pieces from abroad (he has begged Nikolai to take him to Japan far too many times now) without his partner asking. Builds her a custom rack for her dresses with a neat compartment for her shoes. It's also very fun for him that people are more drawn to his girlfriend than him, considering he's used to people bugging him about the mask. Now it's just his partner getting asked a million questions on her outfits.

Soap with a pink pilates princess girl. He was just heading into the gym, saw a pilates class, met his girlfriend, and fell in love. She insists on making him protein lattes and makes sure he eats enough calories. Everyone noticed when Soap got a girlfriend because this man shoes up with the most girly lunchbox alive with his pink Stanley, and the dude is not bothered. A recruit tried to bully him over it, was immediately hit with 'it's lunch my wife made me. Cause I actually have one.' Does skincare with his girl. Man glowed the fuck up from this woman he keeps putting in the work alongside her. He also does pilates and has the best endurance and body athletic wise out of all of 141. Stares at her ass in leggings, and stares at her chest in cute tops. Touchy man does not stop at gym. He is all over this woman like butter on toast. Save her. She just wants to do her set in peace!!

Idea for Ghost having a Lolita partner inspired by @readgoods. Look at her art, it's honestly gorgeous. Writing this at work because I'm bored as shit.

We now have three video game adaptations where unexpected yaoi is a central part of the plot

Oh, and by the way, that Supreme Court ruling is where that Harry Potter money goes.

I forgot I left them like this

[applecidersugar]

Wish someone told me this. Got hit by my own car (long story) and should have went to the hospital. Had to wait days for x rays to come back while my partner carried me around and bathed me. Thank God the guy I bumped with my car before the accident was nice and just said he was late for work and left.

If you get hurt by your own car, go to the fucking hospital. Be smarter than me. If the damage to the car is cosmetic that's fine, we can save to fix that. But making an issue worse or stressing over x rays while you're in agonizing pain is not the move.

Get your car checked out routinely. Change your oil regularly. Do NOT let your gas get below half a tank. My car stalled our from dirt in the fuel line that floats up the lower tour tank gets. Rotate your god damn tires!!! Find the time to maintain your car so you don't get hurt or killed.

Also, nothing should hang from your rear view. It can be used as a projectile and is also illegal (at least where I am). Get a trauma kit for your car (bandages, emergency blankets, shit like that.) You have no idea what emergency you may stumble upon or be put through. Keep jumper cables and your jack in your car at all times!

And if you hit someone or they hit you and they call the cops, DO NOT PANIC. You will look guilty, and people will take that and run.
