I know for a fact that this definitely happened quite a few times when I was in university but due to the fact that I was processing and working through cptsd the whole time I can't recall a specific instance other than that time I called a person of authority ho multiple times because I was trying to type hi on a wider new phone and didn't check my messages before sending. It happened across the span of my entire first year. This was a senior staff member that I was getting journalism advice from for my intro to journalism class. She was 56 years old and extremely prim and proper.

By my second year I no longer sent a single message to anyone without thoroughly proofreading it. She gave me advice for that too though, if you proof read a body of text backwards it forces your brain to process the words individually so you're more likely to pick up typos and spelling errors.

Oh goody! /s it's performance review time and everyone in the newsroom has to give one or two challenges we face in the newsroom for the review. I'm the type of person, due to trauma, that quietly sorts shit out as it comes up or before it can. I don't complain about shit. As such I am terrible at these sorts of prompts for performance reviews because to me challenges I faced are water under the bridge. I already figured it out or I'm working on figuring it out and I don't think external action can be beneficial to the situation so I just don't fucking say anything. But now I have to so give me your funniest workplace challenges and I'll reframe them in professional speak and send them because I'm not going to piss and moan about something and instigate consequences for myself that can be avoided.

Hello dear friends! ❤🤍🖤💚

🍉I am Mahmoud Ayyad, a Palestinian from the besieged and destroyed Gaza 😭😭, coming from an extended family of young children, women and elderly people ❤❤ who have been suffering😭😭 for 300 difficult days from an aggressive war.

Our lives are harsh because we lack all the basic necessities of life. Everything has become scarce and unattainable. There is no food, no water, no medicine.

So, I ask you to help me keep my family safe and alive, especially after we had lost all our sources of livelihood.Please do not leave my family to struggle and suffer these difficult days alone. You can support my campaign by donating whatever you can or by sharing my posts to reach others who can help us survive the war to safety and peace.

**Time is Running Out**

Imagine enduring a harsh winter in a tent made of tarpaulin, with nothing to shield you from the elements.

Every day brings the threat of freezing temperatures, and rainwater can flood our small space, putting us at risk of drowning. The cold can lead to serious health issues, such as chest infections and chronic illnesses.

You can see

I am pleading for help to save my family from this life-threatening situation.

Please, we need your support to escape this danger and find a safe place to live.

🌟 A Cry for Help: My Family’s Struggle to Survive in Gaza 🌟

Hello, my name is Areej Kassab. I’m a 27-year-old English teacher and writer from Gaza, and I’m reaching out to you with a heavy heart and a desperate plea for support. My family and I are enduring unimaginable hardships as relentless bombings devastate our home and our dreams.

We are a family of 15—10 adults and 5 children. Every day is a battle for survival. Food is scarce, humanitarian aid is not reaching us, and my little nieces and nephews go to bed hungry. Among them is my sister, who is deaf, and another sister who has a newborn baby. They, too, are suffering in this crisis, and I’m doing everything I can to protect and provide for them.

💔 A Life in Ruins The war has robbed us of everything: safety, peace, and even the hope of a future here. My family’s needs are basic yet critical—food, clean water, diapers for the babies, gas for cooking, and other essentials to make it through each day.

With rising prices and limited access to necessities, we are struggling to provide even the most basic items. My sister’s home has been destroyed, and we are working together to ensure everyone has shelter, food, and warmth.

✨ My Plea for Your Support ✨ I’m a writer, and I’ve been documenting the harsh realities faced by my community under siege. But words can only do so much. We need action, and we need help. Your kindness can save us.

🙏 How You Can Help

Donate: Every contribution, no matter how small, brings us closer to securing the essentials we desperately need.

Share Our Story: If you can’t donate, please share this post to help us reach others who can.

Your support will help provide food for the children, clean water for my family, and basic supplies to help us survive this unimaginable crisis.

Thank you for reading, for caring, and for standing in solidarity with us. Together, we can create a lifeline for my family—a chance to live, to dream, and to hope again.

With love and gratitude, Areej Kassab ❤️

My name is Mahmoud Yassin, a Palestinian from Gaza, I am 28 years old. My family of five and I were forced to flee our home in northern Gaza after it was destroyed by war. We are now living in a bombed-out house that was bombed over our heads, struggling daily to survive without shelter, food or medical care. What breaks my heart the most is that my 3-month-old baby has been injured in the feet as shown in the pictures, and the lack of necessary treatment. We appeal to you with all humanity to support us with food and basic aid, even the smallest donations can make a difference and save our lives. Please help us, I also have a head injury and a skull fracture and I need an operation outside Gaza, so I am asking for help to get out of Gaza to safety

I'm trying to get a local branch of an international sport association to send me weekly results for our sports page and a bit of info for athletes within the branch, and they just keep going "ask our national CEO we can't say shit" so yesterday I felt petty and basically emailed the ceo like "yo the branch keeps referring me to you can you answer the following questions" with a list of very specific local questions.

Fine, he might chew out the branch for not being accommodating, or at least that's my hope, but he also felt petty and gave me a really good laugh because his response was:

There have been x amount of these events at this location

We don't have that info

We don't have that info

Around y amount of people participate each week

This location is young and doesn't have any records in the sport

We can try to find photos

Thanks

Name

And I absolutely cackled that is just perfect. We're not gonna fight them about it though we'll just publish what we have and move on I have 13 other sports clubs and a gym to get sports news from. I hope this guy doesn't have Tumblr though because this conversation is very recognizable but I also highly doubt he does.

[sassypotatoe1]

I vote we do this everywhere

Edit to add info because I stupidly didn't consider accessibility! Me! A disabled person who uses tech accommodations!

I agree with doing the work in class instead of as homework. To me this means typing or speech to text as well, not physically hand writing, because you're still technically writing it yourself in class. The reason I would prefer this is because you then have direct access to the instructor to ask questions, get advice, learn how to actually write the thing instead of having broad instructions written down and being at the mercy of your instructor's email notifications. You're writing it, under supervision, in an environment where you can collaborate and learn from your instructor and peers, and your work is actually you engaging with the content and others about the content, instead of just a checklist of actions completed to earn a grade.

I saw some concerns about the time constraints of doing it during a class, and to that I say it's a skill issue on the instructor's part. Homie can't manage time well enough to give students ample time to internalize the information and comprehend it then they shouldn't be an educator. (I'm mostly joking I know institutions make this very difficult but you owe it to your students to try).

An ex-colleague of mine was complaining to me the other day about the ai problem in her students' papers, and I told her, "Just make your students hand-write them in class. Easy." She looked at me like I was insane and tried to explain how that would never work, but I just said,"That's how we did it for a thousand years. The invention of word processors doesn't erase all that."

To me it seems obvious. Readings are done out of class, handwritten essays are done within it. No more ai papers.

Bro when you ask probing questions and get one word answers.

Sports club: we're having a development day in February

Me: awesome what does this entail

Sc: it's like a fun day to make people aware of the sport

Me: will there be an exhibit, will the public get to play?

Sc: it's development to get more players

Me, thinking:I give up you want to be vague you're getting vague bulletins in the paper

Hi dear donors ! ❤️

I would like to extend my thank and gratitude for the support you have been offering over the last eleven months. ❤️☺️

My family and I have been suffering and going through the hardest days we have ever experienced in our life . Things are very hard to get and and sometimes unattainable.😭😓

Our sufferings and hardship started on the first days of the war when all our possessions were completely destroyed and burned. We have become displaced and homeless , finding ourselves in a small tent in streets with no means of life. We lack every single necessary thing of life; food, water, hygiene essentials, and other necessities have become scarce and rare.

A photo taken to show how incredibly harsh our life has become after the war. We are struggling and facing lots of barriers to obtain the simplest necessities for living. Everything single thing is a complete story.

You can't imagine what difficulties we have been going through all these days of war. No cooking gas , nor cooking tools exist . We struggle to prepare a small meal of food.

No bakeries are available. Everything seems a miracle and unbelievable.😭 The war has stolen our joy and smile, leaving us busy thinking only of staying safe and alive. Our future has gone with the wind and our kids lost their dreams and ambitions.

This is a part of burying the dead. We also face some problems in the process of buying our dead people as no place is there for the family. Tombs aren't enough for the number of people living on a small spot of land.

A photo taken for the morning queue of filling our gallons with drink water. We wait hours to get some water for drink. Our life is full of tragedy and sadness.

All what we need is to survive the war and be safe. We are trying to secure the daily basic living necessities and this can come true with your contribution and support. Please don't spare this moment of supporting the people in need in Gaza in this tough and dire time. You can help us by either donating however small it is or sharing my posts. Your support makes a big difference for families in need
