Never stop talking about Palestine 🇵🇸
I wanna jump off a building and not die just relieve stress by slamming onto the sidewalk and then get up and go get a slurpee or something
Shayma and her family needs help relocating to safety outside of gaza. She’s only 25 and holding together two of her passed sister’s children who are mentally drained after the passing of their mother and their other sister.
If possible please donate to her GoFundMe and share, she’s the sweetest girl and deserves the world. Her Twitter is @dpechesmode.
tumblr is, if anything, the Appalachia of social media...easy to get lost, sparsely populated, out of the loop with fast-moving modern trends. Attached to tradition. Close-knit communities. Believe in "talk shit, get hit." Everyone is doing their own thing in their own obscure little holler. Prone to pulling the most inventive turns of phrase you've ever heard out of nowhere. Somebody's always starting a racket. We sometimes repel outsiders with much aggression. Lots of talk about hell and damnation to be found. Everybody tends to forget about us for some reason
People in Gaza have been saying this would happen since the very start, as soon as the occupation started corralling everyone into the southern part of the strip they said this would happen. We watched it happen as the “safe” zones grew smaller and smaller and every time Rafah was targeted by air strikes even before this. And no one who could actually stop this lifted a finger. It’s been 129 days.
wait wait can you explain more the new thing in tumblr that makes it harder to post long fics, i barely heard of it rn
Okay SO i did some digging into the topic. Mind you, this isn’t super extensive, just ~20 mins of scouring around on tumblr.
The format for text posts has changed on tumblr to NPF (Neue Post Format). It’s the thing that allows us to give use colors and tiny text on mobile. It has benefits, but it also has some drawbacks...
The above was taken from this article all about NPF. You can also find the link to the article through Tumblr’s official blog, @changes , which posts updates to the sites pretty regularly. There’s a post from Feb 19 that indicates they’re still rolling out the new format. The big scare around the situation is in the first two points in the NPF limits. Authors that primarily use tumblr are concerned that this new format will limit the amount of content we can squeeze into one post. This was my initial concern as well!
250 content blocks or less in a single post — This is basically saying we can fit 250 paragraphs into one post
4,096 characters or less per content block in a single post— This is saying that each paragraph needs to be less than 4,097 characters. Since a post can have 250 paragraphs, that’s a total of 1,024,000 characters.
TO BETTER UNDERSTAND WHAT THIS MEANS, an 11.3k fic of mine has about 200 paragraphs (not necessarily 5+ sentences, merely new paragraphs that sometimes contain only one line of text). AND that fic has ~63,800 characters— meaning, if i’m understanding this right, we have no need to be this concerned... unless you write really long fics like me and enjoy splitting paragraphs to that amount.
EVEN SO, this feature is only mandatory on mobile (through the app)!! If you make a post on pc tumblr, it will not automatically use this NPF feature— you actually have to toggle it (meaning you have to make a conscious decision to use it) on the post in order for these limits to apply.
One thing that bothers me in the Halloween event is how no one seems to be too concerned about the Prefect? Y'know, the magicless Prefect? Literally the ONLY magicless person in the NRC?? And she got kidnapped by someone strong enough to kidnap Lilia and Malleus??? Why ain't no one worried about her?? I know I would, I'd be running around looking for her, ghosts be damned.
