It's with a heavy but hopeful heart that I watch Palestinian families fundraise on here, slowly accumulating the precious little money to go around that they need to survive. However, not everyone is so lucky. A lot of Palestinians that have not had that kind of luck, that did not get early verification, that did not get massive platforms behind them from large bloggers, have approached me in my inbox, asking me kindly to do what I can for them. It kills me that I have so little to give myself, but I've seen this platform collectively raise enough to change someone's life. I've made a list of Palestinian fundraisers that are extremely low on funds, in the hope that drawing attention to people who have not been lucky at all can help turn that luck around. I know most of us can't possibly give enough to get all of these families safe in one go. But please, reblog this list. Pick one or two fundraisers, give what you can, and then keep track of it. Slowly, collectively, we can make a difference in these people's lives. Share and donate as much as you can.

living at the core of a planet-eating extractive empire is cool but i just wish the domestic politics could be normal. none of these ideas have anything to do with one another

the gen z version of boomers thinking ai generated photos are real is those accounts on tiktok who post selfies of random old people & then pull photographs from online archives & make up stories as if they’re the old person and it’s their photograph. saw one today w over a million likes pretending that a photo of 2 anonymous men taken in the 1910s was taken in 1962??? w a made-up story abt being a gay man and seeing his boyfriend get hate-crimed to death…everyone in the comments was eating it up….like i’m sorry but i don’t think u lot can make fun of boomers anymore this is embarrassing xx

Tumblr fandoms make fun of you if you like male characters or don't think every female character is a lesbian

i don't know why people think academic humanities are somehow exempted from the kinds of industry & military funding interests that guide research output in stem fields. ok i do know why but you are just wrong if you think that. do you know how many postdoc and tt apps i've sifted thru in the last month alone that are tied to collections funded off oil money, chemical company endowment funds, etc. do you know what happens if you try to write even historical analysis of these companies that is not flattering to them lol. archives can and do refuse access if someone doesn't like what you argue, funding is handed down from pritzkers and duponts and so forth. enviro humanities people all know what line to toe, it is a responsibility of faculty to inform their grad advisees of how far they can go without attracting censorious attention. do you know how many positions have posted this year at israeli universities. this is before you even get into the frankly insane number of archival and curatorial positions that essentially boil down to writing puff pieces about the usa's 'founding fathers' from the collections at their stupid vanity libraries please be so serious

many will tell you that the dog motif is passé and cliché and overdone . don't listen to them. keep chaining that fictional man to a fence

the people who complain that “erasing lily’s motherhood” is misogynistic are literally the same people who will say that writing a feminine gay man in a relationship is heteronormative bc it’s enforcing traditional gender roles….like do we want the gender roles or not let’s make a choice lads xx

one of my favorite ways to complain is to pick two annoying & dumb statements that contradict each other & go “and the people who say [annoying thing 1] are literally the same people who say [annoying thing 2]” 🙄🙄 even if i do not necessarily know any specific people who have actually said both things & the things just sort of coexist in the same space….literally hits so hard everyyyyy time. follow me for more hater tips

"i'm literally the priest's favorite sacrificial lamb because i am so docile and sweet and i hold very still when they put the rope around my neck and i trot along so happily while they lead me to the altar and they do not even have to tie me down because i lie so very still and only bleat once or twice in my lovely lamb voice and when the knife comes down it cuts through me like butter and i offer no resistance and i bleed so prettily all over my new white wool and my guts all unspool like the most beautiful shining yarn and my eyes are animal and dumb and hold no accusation and every time i die i come right back as another little lamb because the priest loves me so so much and he always chooses me for the sacrifice every time and he always places one hand on my small and twitching nose to calm me while he lifts the knife and he doesn't do it for the other lambs only me because i'm his favorite"

I think movies need more sex and i also think that actors need to be uglier and less in shape
