Chemists Really Tryna Pull A Greenland/Iceland With Oxidation And Reduction, Huh?

Actually got me to laugh, absolutely smashing!

I love the moon

i don't mean that as "i prefer night over day" or "the moon is better than the sun" either looking out my window at night and seeing a surprise full moon always fills me with child-like joy. It's like i'm transported to a time where nothing else matters, its just me, my room, and the moon.

the love that fills my heart when i see the moon can't really be put into words. It's like the clouds become crisper, the night sky is a welcoming gray and the branches of the trees are reaching out towards the closest thing they see to paradise.

gods i love the moon

This reminds me of a dream I had a few days ago! I hope it’s worth the long read.

So the dream begins with me at some kinda school that had a problem with mean students. I got into a fight with a guy which got us sent to counseling (in this world it’s basically detention and school "therapy" smashed into one) Now for a bit of context this world was like semi-magical. People had powers but they weren't really paid attention to. The counselor had us go in a circle say something we liked/loved, and I of course said "dragons". They all looked at me funny and I couldn't tell if because they had heard me say it too many times or if dragons were a weird thing to like. The counselor had me explain myself. Then, a giant blue dragon came down to the school to ask for my location, which for some reason caused everybody else to panic. The counselor told me that it wasn't safe for me to be here (as if it was horrible that a dragon was interested in me??) and told me to run.

Now I walked off for a bit and looked at my options: heaven and hell. Heaven was in the clouds and had wing imagery as you would expect. I don't remember too many details. Hell was more unique though. It was kind of like an rpg game, where you'd spawn in a low "level" area and you could move around to try and get stronger. The starting area reminds me of hot spring pools but if they were in the Nether and had lava instead of water.

I ended up choosing Hell because unlike Heaven you could choose your fate there. (Like in Heaven you wouldn't really have a goal to achieve while in Hell you could have something to work towards?) Hell was pretty nice ngl. It wasn't hot and there wasn't a lot of danger aside from the occasional imp. Most of the souls allowed to wander around weren't bad people either. Bad people were trapped in cages, usually surrounded by imps tormenting them I almost immediately ran into a group of high "level" demons and they took a liking to me. I asked them for help cause I wanted to get out of the starting area and they agreed to help me. They gave me instructions to take this special BBQ sauce to a demon who was in his restaurant at the time. [Demon was definitely a mafia boss or some shit] "If he starts getting grumpy and cursing then RUN. But if he doesn't say/do anything then you're in the clear." They take me to this guys restaurant which I think was a To-Go Mexican restaurant. (According to the demons the drive thru was new).

They handed over the special BBQ sauce while they taking their own orders. The dream ended shortly after that. Let it be known that the special BBQ sauce wasn't code for anything, the demon just had a passion for unique barbeque sauces. The other noteworthy thing is that the Devil was an axolotl with human legs and arms and a bowl cut mullet. He had the vibe of a very energetic old man. (Which I found to be another pro of Hell, the Devil seemed friendly!)

I want a story where the angels didn't fall, they jumped. they clipped their own wings, knowing their Master wouldn't have a use or a need for them once they were damaged and less-than-holy. they could not defeat the Tyrant who exerted absolute control over their lives, so they abandoned heaven their homeland in exchange for independence, accepting exile as its own form of freedom. and hell is just the place where all unwanted things are sent--be they angels or souls who just will not obey.

"tumblr doesn't have an algorithm so likes are WORTHLESS they do NOTHING" well actually likes tell me that people liked my post. they have worth because they show me people saw my post and enjoyed it. that's still interaction even if it doesn't give an extra boost to make Number Go Up even more. yeah I generally get more out of written feedback in tags/replies but likes are still Something, they aren't people telling me "fuck you I'm not sharing your post" they're people telling me "hehe I give your post little a like as a treat."

This is a collection of links to various posts concerning fundraisers I've vetted and instructions on how to submit fundraisers to me. These are primarily ones for Ghazzan families although some fundraisers for Sudanese families are also listed (I'm more familiar with my own country's politics and dialect and am more capable of vetting fundraisers for Palestinians as a result).

I know that people do not like clicking on links, but please actually look through the posts / Google Sheet and choose a fundraiser to donate to. Please.

Yeah, I've always found DNI's strange. I understand the logic behind it, but ultimately you're better off taking action yourself to keep out unwanted company. It takes less time to determine if you want to block somebody than to wait for them to go away, and it's a LOT more effective.

"xyz DNI" blocking people is YOUR job, sorry. You cannot ask the world to simply move around you, you have to take control of your online experience or you will be fucking miserable forever. Most people don't read your bio/pinned/carrd before touching the posts that cross their dash anyways.

Also maybe worry less about if someone who likes something you hate clicks on your tumblr post. I promise it is not that fucking serious.

Also-also if you have this DNI because your friends/moots said or implied you have to otherwise you're somehow Bad and/or will be punished by them if you don't, that's kind of fucked and maybe you need less controlling friends.
