URGENT HELP SAVE THE LIFE OF MY CHILD
Dear humanity,
Please Help Me – My Son May Die at Any Moment.
I'm Amal, a mother of three children, living under the weight of the genocide taking place in Gaza. 🍉
Here’s my story, and I’m reaching out with a hopeful heart 💔✨, hoping someone will feel what my family and I are going through.
My son is suffering from a severe and life-threatening injury after being shot by Israeli drones. He urgently needs medical treatment outside Gaza.
Time is running out, and we are facing a critical situation. I am asking for your generosity to help us save him either through a donation or by sharing this urgent plea with others
I beg you, i kiss your feet, to help my son. My son may die at any moment
I lost most of my family. I'm afraid to lose my son too 🥺 .
So I humbly ask you to donate even a little or at least reblog my post.
Please Donate now:👇👇 👇

9 and 17 for the book ask??
9. Did you get into any new genres? whatever sarah j maas's particular brand of ya fantasy is -- i started reading the throne of glass series this year because my best friend has been tearing thru her books and was desperate for someone to rant to about them :') verrryyyy different from what i've been reading lately and i didn't think i'd be that into it but i gotta admit i do wanna know what happens now 🫣 17. Did any books surprise you with how good they were?
last night at the telegraph club by malinda lo! i got recced this one by this girl i was talking to on hinge who listed it for the prompt abt favorite lgbt books (our conversation ended almost immediately but her book recommendation will haunt me forever....) anyway she described it as "historical fiction lesbian coming of age story set in san francisco" which, ok, already hitting all my buttons, but i didn't know HOW much it would hit me -- follows a teenager in 50s sf chinatown figuring out she's a lesbian while her family is simultaneously coming under suspicion during the red scare WHICH. oh my god. all the strands of navigating what american identity means vs what it means to be a "good chinese daughter" vs navigating desire while growing up but also what KINDS of desire are supposed to be right and wrong while also exploring the landscape of queer society as it existed back then......... (incredibly good highly recommend)
ask me abt books i read this year :)
#last night at the telegraph club had me glued to the page when i was supposed to be finishing my masters thesis 😭#replies#ask things#i spy an original post#books

Me when I see the word beaʃte
In my head: ah! The archaic form of the letter s! Being a casual scholar of linguistics myself I am well aware that though it resembles the letter f in modern typography in fact it is phonetically identical to s! How foolish it would be to stumble into such a simple lexiconical pitfall!
Me aloud to myself every time: beeft
#FURTHER IN MY HEAD: 'ah! esh! the palatoalveolar fricative in the International Phonetic Alphabet! my linguistic training has prepared me#for this and i shall not be fooled --'#ME ALOUD TO MYSELF: 'beeftie'

So when I was getting dressed today, I very quickly put on a lab coat and some cat ears, not even trying to have something coherent, just wanting to have some kind of costume, and then I used some eyeliner to draw some whiskers on my face, so, yeah, that's my costume, cat in a lab coat, does it make sense? no. who cares. Still wearing the same skirt and striped knee-high socks from yesterday, but that's just my work clothes.
But then when I got to my office in the physics department, one of my colleagues was immediately like, "Oh! Schrödinger's catgirl!"
