hello! so shutitdown4palestine is doing a fundraiser this month with the middle east childrens alliance, who even now is providing life-saving, on-the-ground assistance to families in gaza. the goal is $1 million, and they are currently at $214k. ive donated $50 - please give what you can. i really think we can make it to one million this month. thank you i love you
I've come to realize that a healthier way to cope with bad shit piling on is to avoid self-sabotaging thoughts like, 'What did I do to deserve this?' and instead shift my mindset to, 'What lesson is the universe trying to teach me?'" It’s the best way to make something out of circumstances you can’t control and endure.
HI THE CAMPAIGN FOR THE AL-NAJJAR FAMILY IS MOVING EXTREMELY SLOW!! THIS HAS BEEN OVER A YEAR FOR THEM AS THEIR HOME WAS DESTROYED ON THE FIRST OF OCT 2023 EVEN BEFORE THE SEVENTH AND THEY HAVENT EVEN REACHED $5000 PLEASE HELP ME SUPPORT THEM THEY HAVE RECEIVED $5 IN THE LAST 3 DAYS PLEASE
THIS IS VERIFIED!!! Sarah is 16 (her brothers Suleiman and Muhammad in video above) and she is on instagram @ sarah3.9031 for various reasons she cannot download tumblr but we video call and communicate and my roommate and I are organizing the fundraiser so we have any proof of payouts. PLEASE I feel like I’m letting her down as I don’t have a large following or anything to support her I need anyone who reads this to share or donate yes we are begging you
it fucking sucks being a disabled person who can't work and having to see these fuckass posts where someone's like "ahaha jobless people have no life and that's why everyone shitty online has No Job" and everyone and their mother reblogs it joyfully onto my dash for me to see. yes unemployed and unemployable people are truly without exception dogshit people with no hobbies and no redeeming qualities. you're so right. anyway if you'll excuse me i have to start my shift at the I'll Never Be Employed Because Of Permanent Disability And I Love Knowing How You Really See Me store
Not rent lowering gunshots: queer! Dyke! Faggot
Actual rent lowering gunshots: a lot of trans girls on this very web site are uncomfortably happy dehumanizing trans people they dislike and have built a large mean girls club around this.
being a trans woman is fun because like 90% of your interactions with other people will be tinted by transmisogyny, but you're not allowed to acknowledge it because then you're "avoiding criticism by pretending all of it is just bigotry"
trans women are not subject to misandry. i think the reason people say that is because trans women are treated the way fervent 2015 style mras think men are treated (times like a thousand)
almost every big post i see on here with a joke about transfeminine people, whether coming from someone transfeminine or not, rely on sexualization of transfems as the punchline. I could probably list on one hand the number of popular transfem-humor posts ive seen in the past year where the joke wasn't sexual in nature. which could mean nothing.
There's obviously bigger issues with the way trans women are depicted in media, but a pet peeve of mine is how many of them barely change their name. Like, okay, sure, maybe a newly out girl who is trying to be as inconspicuous as possible would go from, like, Jeff -> Jess or Victor -> Victoria.
But a girl who radically changed her whole look and personality in defiance of the world around her wouldn't change two letters in her name, the writers for the show are just lazy.
Have the name change make sense for the character, c'mon.
shayma escaped gaza before the crossing closed and has been struggling to care for her family of 16 in egypt. rent is skyrocketing, and now her brother needs help funding his master's degree. she just lost her childhood friend and her friend's family, she needs support right now.
she didn't ask me to post this, i just wanna show her there's still people out there who care. please help her
