There's such a specific feeling of hurt and lingering bitterness of being born a girl, growing to hate the girly things that you enjoyed, and years later learning to like those things again and unlearning your hate.

When I was little my favorite color was pink, I loved poofy dresses, and I couldn't wait until I was allowed to start using makeup (even lipgloss was considered too mature for kids to some of my family members). Then around when I hit middle school, that changed. I couldn't stand even the sight of pink, I only ever dressed in random hoodies, I'd rather die that have to wear a dress, and I mentally mocked other girls who wore makeup. I saw myself as more mature than everyone else because of this, but looking back and reexamining my emotions, I think that I felt that femininity and every burden that comes with that was being forced upon me. So I did the only thing that I knew how to go against that and became the opposite of what I used to be.

Now I'm 18 and about to start college, and I'm working past those walls that I put up. It's slow and painful progress, but it's still progress. I still have difficulty admitting to myself that pink isn't awful sometimes and is actually quite pretty. It feels like an old friend. I actually really enjoy makeup now. Although when I say makeup, I just mean eyeshadow, eyeliner, and lip stains. Foundation makes my face feel weird and feels like a chore to apply. I only ever do one style of makeup, but it's so fun to do and very whimsical. It's all about having fun for me, not about beauty. I currently have 3 dresses in my closet, although I have absolutely no idea where I'd wear two of them because they're so . . . in your face? Idk how to describe them. I'm also noticing more floral prints in my closet. I had so much fear about relearning to like these kinds of things again because I'd spent almost 7 years very loudly hating them. My family had spent that same time constantly commenting "When are you going to be feminine again?" and other such things, so I was certain they'd start on about "NOW you're finally back to how you were." And that fear still makes me so bitter. Also I feel so sad that I ever hated these things. I'm definitely a people pleaser, and I'm slowly learning that I have no reason to be. I'm just so sad that I had to feel so much hate and pressure to get to this point.

"Can it run DOOM?" - boring, of course it can run DOOM, I've seen everything run DOOM from a knitted blanket to a pregnancy test to DNA

"Can it be used to recreate Bad Apple?" - exciting, imaginative, ALWAYS blows me away with the execution, an eternal banger, I am never expecting it and I am always pleasantly surprised to see Bad Apple in a new medium

Hello everyone,

Brazil is underwater, and we come here asking you for your help.

As some of you may know, the state of Rio Grande do Sul (RS) has been getting torrential rains since last Monday (29/04/24).

In four days, it has rained 436,2 millimeters (17,2 inches), which’s triple the normal amount in a month, which is 140 millimeters (5,5 inches) 

More than two great rivers in our region had their volume duplicated, or sometimes, triplicated in size.

This means all the cities that are close to these rivers ended up completely underwater

There were more than 110 towns flooded and the estimate is that more than half a million people have been affected by this climate disaster. There are also thousands of people who are arriving in my city (the state capital, Porto Alegre) as climate refugees, coming from communities displaced by the floods.

Through this unprecedented tragedy we have been really happy to see entire communities mobilizing to help others. Still, there are people who have lost everything, especially those in marginalized communities living in precarious, unsafe and unsanitary housing.

That’s where you come in. We need money. Money to buy food, clothes, medicine, basic hygiene products, mattresses so that refugees have a place to sleep, basically everything.

Right now, the biggest demand is drinkable water: my city is almost completely out of water, because the water treatment stations have been flooded. 

We understand that you may be able to give very little, but also what is little to you means A Lot more to us. Just a dollar is enough to buy 5 liters of fresh water. 

Here are the links for international donations: 

(these donations are managed by people I know and trust. if you can, donate to them and not the government, but I’ll include that below as well. we don't trust the government to do anything right now, basically) 

This is another option:

Government donations:

And here is some international news coverage of what’s happening:

PLEASE share and donate anything you can. Everything is greatly appreciated.
