Just old posts that cause me pain

My brain definitely hates me. I was randomly thinking about Love Actually and all of a sudden a heartbreaking Caveline association pops up out of nowhere:

When Cave asked Caroline to take over for him, her response was “Over my dead body.”

Without flinching, Cave stared at her and said, “No, Caroline. Over mine.”

how do you choose who to donate to? it always feels like such an awful choice, everyone needs it so badly but i can only give to a few people at a time with what i have. how does anyone choose who to help, or how much to give each person?

gazafunds.com loads a randomized fundraiser for people with this anxiety

you could also buy esims for Gazans or donate to Gaza Municipality Project

✅️Vetted by @gazavetters, my number verified on the list is ( #621 )✅️

Today was unlike any other.

We received a few donations and with them, we had our first real meal in over a month. For the first time in so long, we didn’t go to sleep hungry. We cried, not from pain this time, but from overwhelming joy and gratitude.

To everyone who donated, shared, or simply kept us in their thoughts thank you. You didn’t just feed us. You reminded us that we’re not alone. You gave us back a piece of our dignity and hope.

But the struggle isn’t over. We’re still in need of food, support, and a little more light in these hard times.

Please, if you can, continue to help. Every share, every dollar, every act of kindness makes a real difference.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you. And please, stay with us on this journey.

They Moved The Moon - Chapter Seven

Shake Your Fist at Lightning

“You don’t think it’s gonna work, do you?”

Caroline swiveled her chair towards her boss. “This is one of the most complex endeavors we’ve ever undertaken,” she reminded him. “We’ve already made incredible progress with it. But getting it right takes time.”

“Time we don’t have,” Cave finished for her. 

Caroline nodded, turning her worried gaze down toward the floor.

Cave leaned back in his chair. “Well, we’ll have to wait and see how the next tests go…”

Caroline raised her head again at his response. “What happened to getting mad?”

“I am mad, Caroline. Furious,” Cave clarified. “But I can’t even walk more than five feet anymore. If I’m gonna fight for someone, it would be stupid to pick myself. Cave Johnson’s a losing hand these days.”

“Sir…?” Caroline asked hesitantly.

“Caroline…” Cave began. He took as deep a breath as he could muster before continuing. “You would make the perfect CEO here.”

My attempt at hetero humor. This is how a straight man feels when he finds his girlfriend’s clit.
