It seems to me there are some people who treat music as something that plays in the background occasionally, and there are some— probably anyone who’s reading this — that music has a much more important role. Music is the soundtrack to every aspect of my life — songs vividly remind me of places/ events/ feelings/ people. Music has been my best friend and made me feel connected when I’m at my loneliest. It’s weird and great to find myself in a position where music I’ve made has touched some of you. Keep your shit together!

UnitedHealthcare, the largest health insurance company in the US, is allegedly using a deeply flawed AI algorithm to override doctors' judgments and wrongfully deny critical health coverage to elderly patients. This has resulted in patients being kicked out of rehabilitation programs and care facilities far too early, forcing them to drain their life savings to obtain needed care that should be covered under their government-funded Medicare Advantage Plan.

It's not just flawed, it's flawed in UnitedHealthcare's favor.

That's not a flaw... that's fraud.

NOUR NEEDS MEDICINE!!!

My dear friend Noha Al-Habil is in need of funds to purchase medicine for her younger sister Nour. Nour was born with serious health problems. When she was just 7 months old, she went through open-heart surgery, and continues to suffer from various effects of that. She requires medication to treat her condition, but her family has no money to purchase it.

They need $500 for the cost of the medication. Nour really REALLY needs this medication!! Can we raise $500 on GFM in 48 hours? Please support if you can, reblog this post, and copy and paste this link (https://gofund.me/4be74469) across all your social media accounts.

still thinking about "decolonising" missionary work.

the way you decolonise missionary work is by not doing missionary work

the way you decolonise missionaries is like this:

people need to think real hard about where the concept of a minor even came from, and what reaching the age of "majority" even means from a legal standpoint, and how the social construction of adulthood and childhood functions to oppress and isolate kids. people always assume there is some nefarious purpose lurking behind somebody saying this, but as a transmasc white birthday boy i can get away with saying it without catching any accusations so i'll be the one to do it. if we want kids to be safe from predation they need to have legal autonomy, privacy, and the ability to seek help from other people who are not their legal "owners" (typically but not always their parents)
