Title: Waiting for a ceasefire by Raghad Qanou follow her on tumblr: @rhq274 gfm campaign vetted by nabulsi

to my moots and lovely lurkers alike- i would like to highlight the latest art campaign submission as it comes from a very special person.

for those who haven't had the chance to meet her yet, this is raghad. please take some time to read her introduction in her own words:

"Hello, I am Raghad Qanou, a medical student from Gaza City. My people and I have been subjected to genocide for more than 230 days. My family and I have lived through various types of torture and inhumane conditions. This link is my only chance for me and my family to escape death and try to start over. This is not easy. But we are trying, and we would be happy to have you help save our lives and our future" (share full original tumblr post here) | (read her full story on her gfm page)

raghad used to live a life just like us. i can't speak for all of you- but i think it's safe to bet that a lot of us here are/were college students. people who worked tirelessly to earn degrees in order to get our dream jobs. my own college years, while hard, make up some of the most joyous memories of my life thus far.

raghad has been stripped of those moments- as was the rest of her family (8 in total, 6 of them children). they have been displaced 7 times, desperately trying to stay alive so they can get the chance to truly live once more.

i strongly encourage you all to learn raghad's story on your own. she spent a lot of time and effort to write it herself while suffering through inhumane living conditions. it is the least you can do to show your support for her and her family.

the next thing: share her story with your friends and family.

and finally, for those able to contribute financially: donate! her family's campaign has been vetted by trusted sources and still need our support to reach their goal. their campaign has received very little traction and it has been active since march

the stats so far: £2,207 raised of £55,000 target (~4%)

in an effort to get this post to trend further: here's a poll (do not vote until AFTER you reblog this post)

Spinner and Izuku actually meeting and acknowledging that despite everything they will continue to be no thoughts head empty about Tomura in their own ways is so good to me

(( I know we haven’t spoken in ages, but with what the world is like right now I was just wondering if I could have some reassurance from Randall? It made me feel better years ago and I think it would help a lot now too. I hope you’re having a good day as well))

"I, uh...I've lived in some very ugly, very...dark times," Randall began, after taking a long moment to gather his thoughts. "Times where it felt like...it was never gonna get any better. It was hard to look around at the way things were, and think to myself it'll be okay.

But...in the end, it was," he nodded. "I know it didn't feel like it in the moment, and there were moments where I...I still had my doubts, but...in the end, it turned out alright. I tried not to let that darkness get the better of me. Sometimes, it came close, but in the end...it didn't.

And I gotta thank the people I love for that," he smiled softly, eyes a touch misty. "I didn't have to go it alone-and neither do you. No matter what comes our way...I promise, you won't be in it alone. I'll be with you, every step of the way. It's just like my ma used to tell me when I was a lad: We'll weather the storm together."

u know what? I had a great body positivity moment today so I’m just gonna share it here. if you don’t want body talk, don’t see more, k? :0 smooches you. btw.

today I felt so at peace with my body. I felt so happy with the way I looked as I stood at the mirror after getting out of the bath.

my top surgery scars are healing well. maybe one day they will almost totally fade.

my body is masc af.

I’m hairier than many cis men could ever dream of being. and that’s sexy af.

also I’m a hot ass motherfucker.

even though I still struggle with accepting my big thighs, I can leg press 120lb and could probably murder several small children with them. and I know some people are really into thighs. and that makes me feel a lot better about my body.

and yeah, I’m fat. I’m a chubby guy. but it’s literally The Archetypal Dad Bodytype. there are so many men out there, cis or no, with bodies like mine. and we are beautiful. and we are hot and sexy and desirable and whole.

and we are allowed to love our bodies. It’s the only one we’ve got.

Arthur receiving malicious therapy from a demon in his dreams wasn't what I expected from a new episode of Malevolent but I can't say I'm suprise

[mycenaae]

when my house burned down, my mom and stepdad showed up with clothes for my dad and stepmom and toys for my siblings. my friends threw me a surprise party and put together photo albums for me to replace the ones i'd lost in the fire. our neighbours shielded us from prying media. we rebuilt the house on the same piece of land. anyway all to say that i can't wait to see the 118 extended family do all of that for the grant-nash family.
