PALESTINIAN FAMILY FORCED TO RESTART FUNDRAISING - PLEASE DONATE!

PROGRESS: £520 / £35,000

a little while ago, I was contacted by Amal Abushaban, a Palestinian mother of 5, for help regarding her Gofundme campaign.

In summary, after spending months raising over $13,000 for her family, she attempted to withdraw the money. She did everything right, she answered Gofundme's questions, she provided the details of her beneficiary and she contacted their support team - only to be left in the dark until an email came one day, notifying her that her campaign had been closed and all donations were now in the process of being refunded.

I tried kicking up a major fuss about it online, as well as trying to pester Gofundme Support on my own account, but all it did was send me in circles as I desperately pleaded for the Gofundme Support person I was assigned to at least re-instate the damn fund. Even worse, Amal got her first email today about refunds going through.

Regrettably, Amal is being forced to start over completely in her fundraising efforts. Her beneficiary has started this Paypal fund for her. Please donate and share!

PROGRESS: £520 / £35,000

Just to point out that while George Santos was finally expelled from the U.S. House of Representatives after being charged with 23 felony crimes, committing astounding levels of fraud, and fabricating absolutely stupid amounts of his background, it still required the heavy-lifting of Democratic members to close the deal, and a majority of Republicans voted to allow him to remain.

House Speaker Mike Johnson -- who was unanimously elected as the Republican leader of the House by GOP members in October -- continued to demonstrate his moral leadership by voting to let Santos hold on to his seat in Congress.

i'm not trying to start anything, but i'm confused. if ludinus cared and trusted in people and respected them to make decisions... then why was a a raging racist towards groups of people? i can't fully see how that could possibly match up.

because his hypocrisy is his most center trait, that made him a villain and also parraleled the gods, a neverending cycle of those who think they know best for others when they have descended into selfish ways - but, as with c3's themes, can we bear to accept that someone was terrible but that they were radicalized into it as scared and powerless moments? he did care for exandria. immensely. maybe more than the pantheon did. he would rend himself apart and break everything if it meant everyone was safe from what he saw as the greatest tyranny. but his festering anger and focus on only one goal, his growing power & privelege as he raged with no one to ever guide him away from radicalization from his trauma, meant he both lashed out at others, and thought destruction was a necessary if disgusting trade off for a final peace for those he lashed out at - that was what happened in the calamity, after all, wasnt it, to secure "peace"?

to our knowledge he didnt hate the kryn for being the kryn - he hated them because he couldnt bear to imagine a calamity survivor would worship an object of science, exacerbated by being in charge of an empire so long that he could only see xhorhas through imperialist value. he didnt want everyone in molaesmyr to die, it clearly haunted him - but his hatred of their forgetfulness of what the archheart did isolated him entirely til he grew desperate enough that he destroyed them for his plans (and even then, he remembered them - justifying that their deaths wouldnt be in vain). he despised trent and the imperium and it went against his morals enough he faltered talking to caleb about one of them, but they furthered his end goal and then their abuse wouldnt matter anymore, because the real abusers, they would be gone in his eyes. he hurt everyone around him because he was hurt, and his position and his experience gave him the cruel chance to.

he cared but he learned to steel himself against truly caring. after hundreds of years feeling powerless and alone in a changing world he began to know nothing but the most extreme and final option. war changes and radicalizes people, and eventually even when we think we are kind or intelligent we can break and fall to bigotry and extremity through insanely punitive justice if it means we think it will end suffering. he is us. the bells are us. liliana is us. frankly the pantheon is us too. i see them in this world every day. i think that is the truth of where that hypocrisy is important. we are all suffering people and we have to find some way in the web of the world to meet folk who do not enable our worst but also reach a hand out at our worst. ludinus never found that. and frankly many of us havent either.

You can like a character who is morally grey without trying to justify what they did. Sometimes they are interesting because what they did kind of sucked. Like that’s okay actually.

[faerociousbeast]

unpopular opinion but i dont care that homestuck throws away a lot of its own writing to instead make fun of the fanbase. like yeah honestly its deserved

An avg.army support goes to: (had to post this, imagine jm saying it they would have used these words everytime pjms questioned their support 😂😂)

and how some view him when it comes to jm:

Well finally they are This!

They are exhausted seeing fightings and all..but aren't exhausted fighting with ggs and some biggest bgs fandoms since years and bringing hate to members especially jimin??

They only fight for unnecessary shit and always do pityparties when someone points out their craziness and now i understand why they want jimin to go MS becz they think pjms will not be anymore 🤣 girlies, lemme to tell you even if we won't be as active as on sm apps we do cb when he releases music becz we are here for music lol, well we can't say same for them.

Seeing as non-biased as possible, I actually started feeling they always want to be on side of bigger artist(s)/group so they can brag? It's funny to even say this but yeah that's why they are silent on one member getting most privilege thing by downplaying others in disguise of oh he is whatever fits in USA market lol and successfully made many people into accepting it.

Anyway, pjms who are following me vote vote vote!

Following the shooting on Monday at Abundant Life Christian School in Wisconsin, Joe Biden is issuing a renewed call for greater gun control.

This news comes mere weeks after Joe Biden pardoned his son Hunter for, among other things, gun crime. Hunter lied on a federal firearms application and then had his girlfriend dispose of the gun in a gas station trash can near a school, another crime.

This is a man with absolutely zero shame.

jingliu is a perfect example of "if this female character was male, shed be universally loved instead of heavily criticized"
