Iman Al-Anqar is just 6 years old, suffering from osteoporosis that makes it difficult for her to walk. She is in desperate need of a brace for her foot. During a genocide like this, where people are internally displaced again and again and again, the ability to move is the difference between life and death. In addition, the bitter cold and lack of nutritious food increases Iman’s chances of a bone fracture. This is not something that the Al-Anqars, nor the struggling hospitals in Gaza, can afford right now.

The Al-Anqars are nearly at the 50% mark of their €20,000 goal. The Palestinians and their allies are in a perilous position: ceasefire talks are said to be progressing, but Trump’s imminent presidency puts all of this on a timer. This is not to say that a ceasefire won’t/can’t happen under Trump, but we know his position on Gaza, and for everyone’s safety, it is best we treat Jan 20th like a deadline for now.

€9,870/€20,000 - DONATE AND SHARE

The Al-Anqars are verified by GazaVetters, at #6 on the list.

Sorry I have so many icks when it comes to Ai that I just need to like put out there lol:

So the crazy thing is,

People are publishing books with Ai.

And an even crazier thing is,

For the most part, Ai detectors don't exactly work. There's such a high rate of false positives that even Chatgpt had to get rid of their Ai detector due to poor accuracy.

Here's the thing with writing fan fiction:

It's a hobby. Nobody is sitting you down and forcing you to write it. If you're relying on Ai to just output a fic for views and likes, then perhaps you have something to talk with your therapist about. You shouldn't be writing for the attention, for the likes, the reblogs. (Yes, It feels nice but thats not the reason you should be writing) You should be writing because you enjoy it (and it's a great creative outlet). When you use Ai to simply write your fic, you're losing out of creativity, you're losing your voice, and you're probably plagiarizing someone else's work. I'd rather read someone's non grammatically correct/filled with errors fic than read something with no soul behind it.

Ahh, rant somewhat over:

I am thankful, however, when people do tag their work as Ai because at least they're owning up to it. I can ignore/block/move on with my day.

At the end of the day please refrain from using Ai. Just force your friends to be your beta readers, even if they're not in the Fandom. It's a really fun bonding time when they start to question your sanity.

just saw a fanfic on ao3 have a dedication for chatgpt... that section is meant for your horny perverted mutual who proofread your work, you violated sacred law and you will be torn apart and laid bare btw

I reblog a poll asking for my favourite, Gorilla Jackson, to be voted on by my mutuals. I put the words in the tag to let them know that I am cashing in the favour of voting for Orangutan Johnson in the '23 election.

They owe me

when a mutual posts a poll you know nothing about, but they say "orangutan johnson my beloved, orangutan johnson sweep!!!!" you vote for orangutan johhnson. it's called loyalty.

I love #tag comments a lot. they have this odd power over me. Often people put their direct emotion in there and while all likes/reblogs are awesome and I humbly am thankful of them all. have to admit #tag comments add extra layer of vibe.

"User liked your post" cool

"User reblogged your post" Wow!!

"User reblogged your post "#some silly little tag"" AAAAH THEY LOVE ME OMG!!!!

Whenever I meet people that can only identify the most basic types of relationships like "friends", "lovers", MAYBE if I'm lucky "mentor and mentee" or even "found family" (just don't get me started on the whole "if they're sworn brothers, romantic relationship between them is incest" spiel), every time I honestly am sad for them.

I can't imagine my life without being achingly in love with a witch girl from my pack, knowing she loves me back just as well as I know we will never share more than a single cheek kiss, myriads of minutes spent holding hands and countless poems I wrote and she kept. This is not friends or lovers, this is love that exists in its own way.

I can't imagine my life without sighing after a pretty Arlequin with the most beautiful eyebrows and a cheeky grin, knowing you will never be on the same level and being genuinely happy to stay like a loyal adoring dog at his feet. This is not friends or mentor and mentee, this is love that exists in its own way.

I can't imagine my life without latching onto a big brother that didn't know your name when you already sensed he's going to be your big bro in the frightening new step of your life. Knowing it won't be as special for him, but he'll be the best big brother you could ask for, after you strike a conversation by telling him a fun fact about whale songs. This is not friends or found family, this is love that exists in its own way.

I can't imagine my life without feeling like broken mirror shards laying on the asphalt of a secluded town outskirts road, soaked in someone's rain and knowing that this person you call himinn minn will forever be just that - your unreachable, elusive rainy summer sky. Even in a cold, lonely winter. Exchanging words of love and hot whispers, feverish fantasies over their portaits, talking into the void they left after disappearing - and still knowing it all was the most beautiful of loves shared mutuially. This isn't lovers, this is my sea being in love with their sky, and this love exists in its own way.

I can't imagine my life without running away from the dystopian reality of grey panel buildings and people talking to butchers, so fucking alone, cold and filled with bitter cigarette smoke, only to find myself a hundred years back, in the body of a Silver Age poet falling in love with a fellow runaway in Paris, the one that hears him when no one else does. Knowing the promise "Я все равно тебя когда-нибудь возьму — одну или вдвоем с Парижем." is just that, a promise, and it's enough. This is not friends or lovers, this is love that exists in its own way.

Yearning, devotion, solace, connection, accidents that stay with you for life, worshipping, inspiring, leading, soothing, peace, rebellion. Heart bursting with acrylic paints and calm humming of a habit.

There are so many ways people get with other people. I pity those that had only ever known the basics, but I do hope that they're happy like this.

I am happy with my collection of people that I can only ever name by their nicknames, because I can never refer to them as friends, lovers, internet acquaintances.

"im just a girl" "girl dinner" "girl math" has made women look like a complete laughing stock to men.. when will women as a collective realise that a lot of the time men arent laughing with you but AT you?

2024 HRPF recs

As has become my wont, I spent the last few weeks trying to catch up on some of the new fics in the hockey RPF tag that I missed over the course of the year. I definitely didn't get to everything, or even all of the most popular ones; there may also be a bias towards shorter fics here, as I was trying to get through a lot. 😅 But I hope you enjoy, and possibly find a gem or two that you missed!

First, some general favorites:

Scoring Effects by @helenish (McDrai, 30K): Ah, Helenish. A goddess among us. I love a good mistaken identity story, and this is a GREAT mistaken identity story.

barons by dilangley (MattDrai, 43K): Future fic in which Houston gets its own expansion team, Matthew coaches it, and Leon and Trevor Zegras play on it. Gorgeously done. The Trevor POV section broke me a bit, but it was worth it.

Living Things by @makeit-takeit (TK/Patty, 115K so far): I am so deeply invested in this series. It's very real and vivid-feeling future fic that does an amazingly thoughtful job exploring the NHL wife-and-kids pipeline and what happens when that doesn't fit you as well as you thought it would. The stories that are written so far feel nicely complete, but if you'd rather hold out for the full HEA, you can check out her Wild Ice for a different highlight from the past year.

put the stars in our eyes by @notthequiettype (McDrai, 17K): the McWedding story that I wish I had written. I thought it was going to destroy me, and instead it left me all warm and fuzzy.

Lost and Found by angry_geno_is_score (MattDrai, 2K): angry_geno_is_score had so much to choose from this year, as always, and I loved this as a microcosm of the hurt/comfort they do so well. If you like it, you know where to find more from them!

Next, we move to the irresistible new Sharks babies. I'm not sure I can oversell how hot these three stories managed to be:

come on (leave me breathless) by countthestars @moondoggiestyle (Will/Mack, 10K): I've already talked about how much I loved this one. There can never be too many stories of one player catching the other getting off in the shower, especially if they're as hot as this.

revising the shoreline by ohyellowbird @teex (Will/Mack, 6K): another super well done exploring-their-sexuality-while-not-talking-about-it story, aka my kryptonite.

teamwork makes the dreamwork by canary @bigdogenergy (Will/Mack and Will/Mack/Ryan Leonard, 19K): I'm sure a lot of you have already read this in the last week or so, but I couldn't not recommend it. Mack goes into heat and Will needs an alpha to help him out. Who to call but the ex?

And then we enter the realm of vaguely devastating but gorgeously written JDTZ trade fics:

home by now by donderwolk @donderwolkenblog (Jamie/Trevor, 6K): The moment they found out about the trade, and a little bit after. Brilliant, impeccable, ruinous.

heat check by jolach @hyggles (Jamie/Trevor and also Carts/Richie, 4K): Outsider perspective on Jamie and especially Trevor as they deal with the aftermath of the trade, through the eyes of Mike Richards, who may have some experience in the area. I don't know how anyone writes this well, honestly.

Finally, one of my favorite things about reading through the past year's fics is finding a prolific new author I love who I had totally missed in my year of mostly reading people I'm already subscribed to. This year it was unsay (@tungpin). They seem to have started writing HRPF this year, and they tend toward the kind of complicated sometimes-ambiguous stories that I never manage to write but love to read. Here are a few of my favorites of theirs from this year:

malt (MattDrai, 4K): Leon meets Sasha Barkov and has feelings about how he wants to be more serious than Matthew does (OR DOES HE).

accessory to the rockstar (McDrai, 5K): once again we have Leon having thoughts about how he feels more than the person he's into, this time about Connor. Bittersweet and lovely.

the care and keeping (Jamie/Trevor, 12K): in which Trevor's friends get on Jamie's case about neglecting him post-trade, and Jamie does something about it.

That's it from me, at least for now! I know there were many excellent stories this year I didn't get to, especially the long ones that I just didn't commit to while reading for this list. Perhaps this is the year I do what I've been telling myself to do for the past two years and keep track of what I read and love throughout the year. We can only dream. 😅

Happy reading!!

URGENT: HELP A PALESTINIAN FAMILY SURVIVE WINTER IN GAZA

After a brief burst of movement on my friend Ahmed's campaign to save he and his family and help them purchase survival goods, it has started to stagnate again at €42,211. This is a good head start for January, but we can’t let it stall for a day when 5 lives are on the line. New short goal is €43,000, meaning we must raise €789 or ~€33 for the next 24 days for them to achieve this. This is entirely doable, and with the uncertainty of the oncoming administration here in the US, it is as dire as always for us to put everything we can towards these efforts.

Please give what you can. Even €5 makes a difference.

€42,211/€43,000 SHORT GOAL.

€0/€33 DAILY GOAL.

Vetted by el-shab-hussein and nabulsi (line 68). I've also seen multiple modes of verification, set the family up with their beneficiary, and have witnessed several successful bank transfers. Ahmed has also given me forms of verification to provide to donors who request it. DM me if it will secure your donation.
