a friend of mine has her debut poetry collection coming out in september & preorders are open at Workshops for Gaza! proceeds go to the Sameer Project. she's an incredibly talented writer & i've learned so much from her + her work, i'm very excited to read it! summary:
In her debut poetry collection, Fatima-Ayan Malika Hirsi chronicles experiences from quarantining in Dallas, to being the sole Black person in an Oregon ecovillage, to building relationships with land and water on Vancouver Island. Through climate collapse and genocide, love and parenthood and ocean song, these poems confront and confound, calling in a deep sense of care for the Earth and for one another. In a world where some pull the trigger, some look away, some try to stop the gun--Hirsi asks: Which one are you?

I sat down and tried to make myself feel better by having a nice drink and reading my new poetry book (and even thought to myself wow I need to be super careful not to spill this on my nice new book) and on the second poem proceeded to spill it everywhere including most of the book's page and yes I'm crying about it
#also I've seen enough people act like even dog earing a book is wrong that my brain is now convinced I'm committed a mortal sin#even though it was an accident and it's my book why does it matter!!!#i am functioning as a newly mostly independent adult but I am not doing it well and it sure doesn't feel goof most of it time

if you voted, please remember to share this post


My friend Mosab's daughter, Lama, has been injured in a bombing in Gaza and is in need of donations to help save her life.
His family doesn't have money for food or medicine and there is no cooling system to shield them from the scotching heat.
Please help this family meet their basic needs so they can escape this genocide. They have survived through hell the past nearly 2 years. Please don't let them die now just because of hunger.

TRANSGENDER SUDANESE REFUGEE IN NEED OF SURGERY WITHIN 10 DAYS, 0% OF GOAL REACHED!
our last post died in traction. the leader of this group of LGBT refugees, Muhshin Magala, has been sick with ulcers for weeks now. she needs surgery to remove them, and needs $5000 for it. all we've raised currently (and in the past) has gone towards food and medication, and paying off her current hospital stay.
she NEEDS this surgery to live, and we need help from everyone else for this to even begin to be a possibility.
0/5000$. a reblog could save her life.

Thank you! I started writing tonight and I have almost all the plot planned out, I'm so excited for you to read it too!!!
Hi! I just finished reading no promises for the second time, and I really love it!!!
I was wondering if you're okay with people writing fanfic of your fanfic?
I found the part where Furiosa and Octoboss talk about the rumors about him and Firecat so funny, but it made a plot bunny leap to life in my mind, focused on a more emotionally intense missing scene of sorts where we see how the rumors started, centered around a very loving (but entirely platonic) relationship between the two.
I just wanted to check you'd be okay with me writing in your AU world! I'd post the fic on ao3 with credit, of course. I know you're not the only credited writer so please feel free to run it by your co-author too.
Thanks so much for writing either way, it's such an amazingly complex world you've created and I love the emotional depth you give to minor characters!!!
Holy shit, I'm so flattered! Write whatever you feel inspired to, I'll be so pumped to read it.
I'm glad other people are vibing with Octobassa. In terms of brains, warrior mindset, and commitment to the welfare of their respective peoples, they're cut from the same cloth. I feel like if they'd interacted under any other conditions but canon they'd have so much chemistry and respect for each other.

different donation post cuz other1 is too long!
I am Valerie, I am a trans lesbian from London and I just moved to Norway from the UK, I am a video, image and sound artist + DJ, I am also a writer!
I've just moved to Norway, I'm looking for a job here, making art with beautiful people, it is just hard and expensive despite being the most amazing place ever!!!!
I'm leaving London because it is increasingly hostile to people like me in a really scary way and being there slowly kills me, but leaving London also entails leaving that sickly stability, so I need a bit of help.
If you like my art, buy some on zora or pay for my substack, if you just want to aid a girl in need, any donations would be deeply, deeply appreciated. I love this site and the extent to which this community (among others) has gotten me to the point where I feel I can chase happiness, I just need a boost to get there. <3 thanks for reading.

you cannot talk about the homophobic murder of jonathan joss without including in the conversation that he is indigenous.
american indian men are at the 2nd highest risk of death by murder compared to all other ethnic groups. in their lifetimes, 82% of native men report having experienced domestic violence. yet the overwhelming majority of perpetrators are non-natives (88% of native men and 92% of native women who reported violence said their attacker was non-native). what’s more, tribal governments are often stymied in their attempts to bring justice against non-natives, meaning that many of these cases go unresolved.
this was an intersectional attack. the fact that he is indigenous matters, even if the motivation was homophobic, because it made him even more vulnerable and disposable in the eyes of his killer.
as always, look into MMIWP to learn more, and speak up for us. miigwetch, take care
