Earth, Sometimes I Try to Play It Casual,

A poem by Catherine Pierce

like Hey mercury, hey malachite, I'm busy today, can't stop to marvel, but always my blood is saying O god you starsprung miracle. It's self-preservation,

letting myself believe laundry matters, letting myself believe there's anything other than egrets and oceans and vast moss carpets and

the finite heart of every single person I love. Earth, you terrify me—you are fierce green and honeysuckle, you are herds of wild ponies,

and you are leaving, always. Is it any wonder some days I look at my laptop instead of out the window? Every time I glance up

there you are, quaking me with your fern fronds and silver frost. O you of the rhyolite mountains. You of the dew-hung web. You are lemon quartz

and quicksand. Muskrats and starfish. How could I be any way but staggered? O blue spruce, O white fir, O green forever, you know

my nonchalance is a sham. It's so hard to admit our real desires. Earth, what I want is to sit gentle under your twilight purple, watch your bats

hunt and dive. What I want is to know about endings and still love each bat, each shade of the boundless, darkening sky.

People are SLEEPING on the most interesting Leia & Padme comparisons because there's so much focus on Leia being "like Anakin" because she gets annoyed sometimes and Padme being this perfect moral beacon of truth and justice despite all of her very canonical lies and cover-ups and obstructing of justice.

If Luke is the Jedi that Anakin should've been, then Leia is the LEADER that Padme should've been.

Padme is a hypocrite, proclaiming that all people deserve basic decency and the right to safety, but at the same time allowing Anakin to get away with a mass murder with no consequences by covering it up.

Leia doesn't even let Han get away with being a little bit of an asshole, there's no way she'd let him get away with mass murder. She holds everyone around her to a higher standard, believing in the best of them but also but refusing to accept excuses for cowardice and selfishness.

Padme talks so much about wanting the war to end, but then allows one of the opposition's biggest generals go free just to get Anakin back because she cares about him, causing the war to continue to go on for even longer.

Leia lets Luke sacrifice himself because she knows it's possibly the only way they might have a victory and beat the Empire, even though she knows what he is to her and loves him. She knows what has to be done and respects the choice Luke is making and would never condemn their efforts just to keep him with her.

Padme's story parallels Anakin's, she devolves as the narrative goes on, until she's barely a shell of the person she used to be. That strength and moral clarity she showed as a Queen is entirely gone, leaving only a scared woman pleading with a murderer to come back to her.

Leia's story parallels Luke's, she gains more and more strength and clarity as the narrative moves forward. The bossy young woman we first met has become a confident rebel leader who knows she doesn't have to harden her heart to be strong.

I learned in my political science class that all major famines in the 20th century and onward have been caused by oppressive groups or political situations restricting access to food, NOT natural causes like crop failure

[dragons-and-pandas]

This is literally the point that Indian economist Amartya Sen made that won him the Nobel prize in economics. As a child, he survived one of the several Bengal famines that were organised by the British colonisers in India. He developed his theory on famines, which is that they were more about distribution of food rather than production or availability of it

[melodies-stereo]

ohhhh youre a transfeminist? thats really cool! now really quick before we continue talking, does your transfeminism have space for isuggestforcefem, patricia taxxon, and the countless other massively lolcowed trans women? just, yknow, asking.

[melodies-stereo]

im a trans woman and a real human being capable of suffering by the way. i exist.

[melodies-stereo]

im not porn, im a girl. i have friends and interests and hopes and things i want to do. i laugh and cry and i give hugs and i watch the sunset. i'm real. im a person. i'm a woman. please stop treating me like im an object. i'd love it if you stopped, i'd give you anything in return for it. please see me.

[melodies-stereo]

i do all this just like you do. i'm real. please see me as real. it would make me so happy if you did, if you saw me as just another person.

Help two disabled trans women not starve

Hey, we're completely broke after spending most of our income on utility bills and rent at the start of this month, and have been struggling to make ends meet since. We're almost out of food and can't afford groceries, meds or other necessities.

We're both having a really hard time right now. We both have almost daily meetings and appointments, and it's getting increasingly harder to stay focused when we're both constantly feeling fatigued and lethargic.

We would be so thankful for any help to make it through the next few weeks. Everything goes a long way.

We don't have any food left and would be so grateful if anyone could help us pick up groceries so we can have dinner for the next few days.

[eventuallyelasticrebel]

Not every position creates courage, but courage defines true leadership. Deep respect to those who raise their voices in defense of humanity. While others choose to stand by in silence, as if none of this concerns them. History does not remember those who remained silent. It remembers those who stood for what was right when doing so demanded real courage.

[eventuallyelasticrebel]

What I'm about to say isn't being reported in the news. Organizations in Gaza don't distribute money; most distribute food, and not everyone gets enough for their family. So, if you can donate... Donate to a family or person suffering from a specific illness

[eventuallyelasticrebel]

My daughter Salma and my niece Judy are suffering from severe anemia. If you are able to donate, please click here. If you would like to participate, you can also help.

[alkliliyfamli]

Everyone is talking, writing, and seeing, but many are ignoring us or simply unable to participate. Please, we in Gaza are living in very harsh conditions. Donate, do something.

[ahmed0khalil]

Sometimes I look at what our lives have become, and I cannot comprehend everything we have lost. The home that once brought our family together is gone, our shop that provided us with an income is gone as well, and displacement has taken away our last sense of safety. Today, I watch my father suffer before my eyes while I am unable to afford his treatment, and I have been forced to rely on donations to support my family and keep going

[ahmed0khalil]

My father suffers from a herniated disc and severe back pain, and he needs surgery that costs around €1,500. It hurts to watch him suffer every day knowing that treatment is available, but we simply cannot afford it. Since June 22, we have raised only €251 out of €1,500, leaving €1,249 still needed. More than a month has passed while I have been asking for help for my father, watching him endure his pain day after day as the amount we raise increases very slowly. It is painful to have to repeat his suffering again and again while so many people see these appeals and nothing changes

[ahmed0khalil]

Please, do not pass by this appeal without helping. Even a small donation of €10 or €20 could bring my father closer to the surgery he needs. Ignoring his suffering will not stop his pain, but your help could make a real difference

While the international community speaks of the genocide and ethnic cleansing we are enduring, we are focusing on the details of this urgent crisis moment by moment.

[ahmed-motaz]

My family and I are surrounded by winter's relentless bombardment. Shrapnel rains down on our heads and inside our tattered tent, leaving us without even the most basic protection. Flying in a torn tent offers no shelter from the bitter cold or the scorching summer heat. Every day we bid farewell to the martyrs of the revolution, witnessing children lose their lives before our very eyes, while we and our children suffer from a profound lack of basic necessities.

[ahmed-motaz]

We need your help, not to dismantle our tent, but to provide us with the food and medicine we desperately need to survive. I implore you not to abandon us in these circumstances.

[closet-keys]

Please please continue to support my young friend Ahmed. His family has been displaced many times, they live in a tent in a refugee camp in Gaza, and are subject to terror from attacks that continue under the false “ceasefire.” Ahmed needs food and medicine urgently.

i have a mission for you

Lily and Nico are two trans women who are very dear to me. They've been having to live all alone in a world that is getting more and more hostile and scary. You have the power to help. If Lily can move in with Nico, they both will have an easier time surviving. They are both struggling to make it on their own.

It's a long journey, so it will be an expensive one and Lily can't make it happen by herself. Every little bit helps. I know times are tough for all of us, but even if you can't donate, sharing helps a TON!

whenever Qifrey has any screen time i zero in on his hands to watch with rapt attention whatever anxious little fidgeting they're doing this time. him clutching his emotional support ribbon in that season 2 announcement poster was way too sweet and sad, had to redraw it

Rest assured, Oruggio. Here, in the Great Hall, you have nothing to fear; neither storm nor snow will be able to reach you.

Op I have to let you know that this artwork single-handedly made me go read the manga (I’m about halfway through as of now so don’t spoil anything!) and I’ve never read manga before or anything. Until yesterday I did not know what Witch Hat Atelier was. This is was done so beautifully I needed to find out where it was from.
