Hey! casteism doesn't exist in India!!

There's so many more cases. You savarna's still wanna yap about caste divide? You still want to question why so many dalits convert to other religions (you don't even let them do that btw) for basic respect?

All the upper caste sanghi fools, are dalits not hindu? are they not in the same danger like you proclaim yourself to be? why is it that atrocities against dalits are NEVER included in your 'hinduphobia' posts?

✨🎄Merry Christmas It’s a special day for giving 🎄🎁

If I knocked on your door with my 22-month-old child in my arms, crying from hunger, would you close the door and leave us suffering from hunger and cold without offering us a helping hand or even offering us a kind word that would come down to our hearts to heal the wounds of the war that has been going on for more than 14 months?

Would you leave us and continue your happiness with Christmas and your holiday without feeling a pang in your heart upon seeing us in such a condition, without offering any help? 🥹 💔💔

The truth is, we are not much different. We are knocking on your door now, hoping that your compassionate heart will extend a helping hand and provide us with our basic needs: food, medicine, and warmth. The only thing separating us is distance

Have you ever thought about our situation before? How do the people of Gaza survive under such conditions of killing, starvation, displacement, with the crossings closed, goods prices rising over 12 times, and all their belongings destroyed, leaving them with no income or shelter except fragile tents that cannot protect them from the cold or rain? Have you ever thought about this before? 💔😥

I will tell you, we are not dreaming of luxury! When your help reaches us, we can provide basic needs, healthy food, and medicine for my child and my mother-in-law. When it doesn’t, we suffer terribly, and many nights we go to bed hungry, waiting for your donations to fill our hunger, provide medicine, strengthen our resilience, and give us hope for a better tomorrow 🥺💔

We appeal to your humanity to provide any contribution, no matter how small, for every bit of support from you restores hope and eases our pain in these difficult times. Your generosity is our lifeline 🫂🙏

Dear generous donors 🌷🩵

There are no words to describe the depth of our gratitude and thanks for your donations that arrive each time like a lifeline in moments when we were on the brink of despair. 🙏🫂

I want to assure you that your donations go exactly where you expect them to. They help provide healthy food, baby formula, Winter clothes and blankets, and essential medications for my family. You cannot imagine the joy that fills our hearts when your donations arrive, as if the sun rises after a long darkness, bringing us hope for a better tomorrow and easing our worries, because we know that we will not go to bed hungry after days of hardship, when even getting bread seemed impossible. 💖✨

But the painful truth is that the food and flour run out after a few days, and our hope is renewed with every time we await your generous donations, hoping they will reach us soon. 💔🥺

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts 💚

For your information, the price of a sack of flour has exceeded $300, and the cost of our essential food and medication needs far exceeds that, but it certainly does not surpass your generosity and the kindness in your hearts.

For the last two new years of his life before we lost him, my pal Tyler, who loved Having A Saying, would wait until after people did their midnight kissing and cheering. He'd shrug and say "fuck it, let's steal some more time." The idea being that it's all the same. None of us earn the "right" to be Here or not, we're just here and for some of us choosing to be here has been or is hard, and for those of us that has been the case for, after a while, you're kinda stealing the hours. And so I don't think about the turning over of the year as much. It's all time I'm glad to steal while I can. On stage during a reading, Ross Gay once put a hand on my arm and said "this could be the last time we see each other. And knowing that, don't you want to make the most of this, this little moment we have right now?" | think there's a difference between interest in death or mortality, and obsession with dying. One is an emotional concern, the other is an obsession with an action. But more importantly, the former allows for a real gateway to something greater, if you're willing to see it. It's hard, perhaps, which is why I think people so often misread Ross or, say, Mary Oliver. The etsy-fication of "wild and precious life" has rendered the question rhetorical, when it isn't. It's urgent. The key that goes into the ignition of that line is the speaker, presenting the question with the understanding that you are going to die. You are required to die, BUT! the good news is, it hasn't happened yet! And so, what, then, will you make of the hours wherein that is not happening! How will you be patient, or brave, or more aware, or more loving, or or or. Who or what will you pull close. What unsent text will be sent. What we know of the dwindling of time doesn't allow Mary Oliver's question to be rhetorical. I'm pretty much clinically required to treat this as another day I'm glad I'm up for, but if the new year Means Something to you, I hope it meets you well. I hope whatever bravery or care or rage you carry into it is useful. The world does not require us, and yet some of us remain. For me, to not live and act and care with deep urgency would be treasonous to the fact that I remain.
