Hello 👋,

I hope this message finds you well. My name is Aziz, and I’m reaching out with a heartfelt plea to help my family find safety and reunite with our mother. 😞

The ongoing war in Gaza has torn my family apart. My mother and newborn sister are stranded in Egypt, while I, along with the rest of my sex family members, am trapped in the midst of the genocide in Gaza. We have not only been separated but have also lost our home and are enduring unimaginable hardships. 💔

Your support can make a difference. Whether by reading our story, donating, or sharing our campaign with others, you can help us reunite, find safety, and start anew. 🙏🕊

Thank you, from the depths of my heart, for your kindness, compassion, and solidarity during this difficult time. ❤🍉

werewoof nancy would have silly little wolf ears and one of them would be oversized and flop over but she’d use some mechanism or tape or whatever to make it stand up straight in her never ending fight for perceived perfection

UPCOMING PROTESTS

PALESTINIAN LITERATURE READING LIST

[upsidedog]

I am incredibly disappointed in Noah Schnapp's behavior. The audacity to be so uncaring and ignorant when talking about a genocide that has killed more than 11,000 people blows my mind. I understand that he is Jewish and that he is supporting the Jewish homeland, but to disregard and make a joke of the war crimes and tragedy that has struck Palestine? That is just supporting a genocide and the mass murder of innocent people who have lives that are now being taken away. Shame on him. He is old enough to realize that what he is joking about is mass murder. He has such a big audience of young, impressionable children. He is teaching them that genocide is a joke. At this point, I can't support him. I love Stranger Things, but it is tainted now and I don't think I can be as involved as I was a few months ago. If you notice I'm not posting as much, it’s because of Noah's terrible actions. I heavily encourage all of you to support and help Palestine as much as possible. Everything helps even if it is just reblogging information about Gaza.

How can Joyce as a single mother who works a single job in sales afford a house and take care of her two sons, but Susan has to work two jobs and barely manages to rent a trailer for herself and her one daughter?

[upsidedog]

i can guarantee you that max has gotten triggered by eddie at least once. drives like a maniac, canonically listens to the same metal as billy? yeah, she's definitely gotten triggered from hearing the screech of the tires and the sound of loud music blasting through her thin walls before.

oh yeah for sure. i’m disappointed the show didn’t explore their relationship a little more or at least allude to it bc then maybe the fandom consensus would be less “eddie is max’s surrogate brother, they both like each other and their relationship is uncomplicated” and more “max is at best annoyed by eddie, at worst triggered by his presence and eddie thinks max is weird and annoying because she never hangs out with the boys that say she’s their friend and she throws rocks at his trailer when he plays music too loud.”

When Dustin 1st came to town in the 4th grade, I hc Mike and Will nominated Lucas to befriend him 1st and that is the birth of Henclair

cheerleader el & mvp lucas ⭐️

and they were girls together

Alternate timeline — El is found by the Munsons.

(I’m going with a headcanon i saw months ago on here suggesting that there would be no investigation at all cause Wayne would see people in suits on his doorstep, think they’re after Eddie and chase them off with a shotgun so they wouldn’t even bother coming back)

stranger thing’s biggest tragedy is that it takes place before dance dance revolution was made. every modern au should have the party lamenting over the fact max has the top score in “butterfly” expert mode. in general my favorite thing about modern aus is just thinking about stuff like mike writing crappy creepypasta and erica running a my little pony tumblr page. this is my kind of nostalgia bait

[upsidedog]

a little over a month after max ended things with lucas a girl in her spanish class aproched her and asked if “lucas sinclar” is single. apparently she thinks he’s cute and has seen them hanging out. “no, he isn’t single” is what max wants to say because if she sticks to her plan of mourning their relationship for the rest of high school so should he, even if max was the one who broke it off. but max is a good person so she says “yeah he’s single.” but not that good so she adds “he just got out of a relationship though, and he’s not over her” and since she’s already crossed that first line “i actually wouldn’t even try.”

max only lasts an hour or two before she feels so guilty she tells lucas there’s a girl in her spanish class that he should ask out cause she thinks he’s cute. lucas is a little offended that his ex is trying to play matchmaker on principle but also because he was sort of planning on mourning his and max’s relationship for the rest of high school
