I don’t think people understand how insane it is that 80% of all the people in the world suffering from catastrophic hunger are in Gaza (A strip of land 25 miles (40 kilometers) long 7 miles (11 kilometers) wide.) There is an estimated 2.1 million people in the Gaza Strip and an estimated 8 billion people in the entire world think about that.
remember when u were like 11 and the only thing u wanted was a lava lamp
Never forgive. Never forget. World leaders, world-famous celebrities, and all those who are silent will answer.

The point of fiction is actually to put that guy in a situation™️, and he might try to tell you the point is to then get him out of the situation, WRONG, second situation
Here's the point! They are all trying to get the word out in English for the world to hear, see and help them. Besides, they are all very young and have to deliver news like this. At a time when teenagers their age are having fun going to clubs and whatnot, meanwhile they (motaz and another journalist in Palestine) have to deliver the genocide that is happening in their country, in their homeland.
I'm sure we all know this, but some of you are still reluctant to talk about Palestine, still reluctant to stand up for Palestine.
fuck israel, israeli, joe biden, Netanyahu!!!
I also really like how araki made Pucci black because religious psychosis in the black community especially in America it's particularly strong and often leads people to do things that actively harmful towards people in the black community as well as everyone around them. With the belief that they are helping others or achieving a great divine goal, which is exactly what puci did. and dio being the one to brainwash him is really interesting because it's exactly how black people get brought into this idea of religious divinity by people essentially exploiting the black community that was already in a very bad state both mentally and economically the way that dio.
Overall I love Pucci as a character for the way he parallels what happens to many marginalized people that turned to a type of racial divinity fuelled by their need for change, growth and freedom from the society they live in
Stone Ocean isn’t just my favorite Jojo part but it’s my favorite piece of media. I think a big reason for that is because, to me at least, a lot of the themes and messages of the story feel inherently queer/trans coded. The biggest themes of the story are about memories, and what our pasts mean to us, how they shape us. We see how Jolyne and the others have pasts that make them judged, outsiders to society, traumatized. However, they all become more than what they once were and find their true selves. FF specifically embodies this so well. They literally find a new body that fits them better, making them happier. The life and body they were living in before was dull, near-meaningless and subject to the whim of other people. They express their authentic self, but have to move in caution because of that, and value their bodily autonomy over everything else.
On the opposite end of the spectrum, however, we have Pucci. In him, we see what refusing to critically assess yourself and reshape your ideas does, especially when religion is brought into the mix. His entire goal of wanting to have everybody’s fate known and set in stone isn’t him working past his trauma, it’s him literally being consumed by it. He claims to have good intentions, and genuinely does believe that. But because he isn’t able to face his fears head on, he winds down a dark path that leads him to become the opposite of what he wants was, so engulfed by his own bubble that he can’t see how hypocritical he’s become.
Probably wasn’t intended- (maybe?? since some people claim that shonen made Araki change Anasui from being a female, but who knows)- but this just mirrors being queer so well to me. The process of literally rebuilding yourself, while still honoring what value you can pull from your past. Meanwhile, people all around you try to frame you, spread lies and force their beliefs and rigid viewpoints on you. I love you Stone Ocean 🌊 💿 🦋
I am so sorry to bother you with this stupid question, but Bisan has asked for a complete stop in economic activity. Can I still donate to help Palestinians or is it better to avoid any transactions for the week ? Thank you so much for what you're doing
hello anon. don't apologise, you're a breath of fresh air after the recent visitors in my inbox. I think a slightly more accurate description of Bisan’s ask is to stop or minimise all economic activity not in direct support of Palestine. Now more than ever, I would encourage people to donate to escape funds for Palestinians, to direct aid organisations like CareforGaza and the PCRF, and to buy e-sims as they’re running low.
Below I’ve compiled a list of resources below but this is definitely just a small sample size of what you can do to help during this strike. This post here is an extremely comprehensive resource that I’d recommend you have a look at.
Care for Gaza:non-profit charity that distributes money, food and other resources directly to families in Gaza.They maintain a regular presence on Twitter and Instagram. You can donate to them via Paypal here.
PCRF / Palestine Children's Relief Fund: non-profit organisation that distributes essential food and resources to families in Gaza. Most recently, they delivered 30 tons of vital medicine, and 82,000 pounds of flour.
Medical Aid For Palestinians: deploys medical teams to treat Palestinians suffering under Israel's malicious bombardments.
Donate e-sims to Palestine: massive post with tutorials and relevant links, with discount codes included in the post and in the replies.
