a source of support we were promised has last minute been wrenched away from us and we had thought that rent for next month was covered but it isn't. we have 9 days.
i'm immunocompromised and still recovering from covid. i need to rest as much as possible to avoid lifelong damage to my already very impaired health or to be frank, it killing me. this distress is making it hard to heal. i know these posts are not fun to read but i need help anywhere i can get it
if you enjoy my writing, if you've benefitted from my covid conscious info, if you're transfeminist and want to support my transfem gf not become homeless, if you have even a dollar to spare, i would be incredibly grateful for help. reblogs and asking your friends also very appreciated.

My grandmother is relying on your support to stay alive.🙏
• We are going to lose my grandmother because we can no longer afford her treatment.💔😭
We haven't received any donations for the past two days. Because of the lack of support, my family has been giving up our daily food just to buy my grandmother's medication, which costs €420 per week, or €60 per day.
🔴If we can no longer provide her medication, her condition will become critically dangerous.💔🆘
Please don't let my grandmother suffer or reach a critical condition because we cannot afford her treatment.💔😥
Hilda🙏💔😭

STOP SCROLLING FOR A MOMENT. TONIGHT, I THOUGHT MY BABY QAIS HAD DIED.
Tonight, I watched a yellow discharge come from baby Qais's wound, and my heart nearly stopped. I have never felt so terrified, because I knew something was terribly wrong before we even reached the hospital.
The doctors examined him and warned that his condition requires urgent treatment. I walked out carrying fear I cannot describe. Please I beg you, donate today and help save Qais's life now please.
I am begging you as a mother who has nothing left except hope in kind strangers. Please donate now and help me buy Qais's medicine and treatment. Your donation today could make all the difference for his recovery.
I’m saying this with a heart that can’t take more pain. If you read this and scroll away, I won’t forgive you. My baby is slipping away. Please donate now, please share—save Qais.
I am pleading with you as a persecuted mother in Gaza, helplessly watching my baby bleed before my eyes with no way to ease his pain. Please donate today and help me save his life before it is too late.
Sadly, doctors told me they could do no more for baby Qais because the treatment he desperately needs is unavailable at the hospital, and I cannot afford to buy it elsewhere. Please donate today and help me bring him the medicine that may ease his suffering.
PLEASE D0N'T WAIT UNTIL I BEC0ME AN0THER TRAGIC ST0RY THAT Y0U WILL READ TOMORROW.
I keep imagining the moment my family will someone ask of them, "Is Fadel still alive?!" I don't know how they will answer that day. No mother, father, or sibling should have to live with this grief and fear that hangs over every soul.
Every day I fight two battles at once: the battle to endure the pain of the shrapnel lodged in my body from the bombing of our house, and the battle to find a way to afford the medication for my anemia, the painkillers to ease my injuries, and the bandages I still desperately need. I feel like I'm breaking down more and more each day. Every single day.
Please don't ignore me ple@se h@lp me by d0nating so I can urgently buy my medication and painkillers. please I don't deserve all this neglect. I'm not asking for miracles, just a chance to live my life without pain or disability. your help or d0nate or share my story today. Your kindness can help protect my future and remind us that we are not alone.
As a brother, there is no pain greater than watching someone you love suffer every single day, knowing you cannot take their pain away.
My brother has already been through surgery, endless hospital visits, and unimaginable hardship. We hoped the worst was behind us, but his journey is far from over. He still needs $1,500 to continue his treatment, receive the medications he depends on, and complete the medical care that gives him a real chance to recover.
Deadline: 23 Jul
Current Progress: $25,703 / $ 26,500
In the heart of Gaza City, amidst the turmoil of conflict and resilience, Tawfik's… Tawfik Wal needs your support for Support Tawfik Dream o
Every day we delay his treatment is another day of pain, fear, and uncertainty. Seeing him struggle while worrying about how we will afford his care is heartbreaking. We have done everything we can, but we have reached a point where we simply cannot do this alone.
Your support will help cover:
• Ongoing medical treatment
• Essential medications
• Medical supplies
• Follow-up care and rehabilitation
Every donation, no matter how small, brings my brother one step closer to recovery. If you're unable to donate, please consider sharing our fundraiser. One share could reach the person who changes everything for my brother.
Thank you for reading, for caring, and for standing with my family during one of the hardest times of our lives. Your kindness gives us hope. ❤️

Traumatized in Ireland While my Family is Facing Death and Starvation in Gaza
Has it become normal Now that the defenseless civilians in Gaza face death and starvation on a daily basis?
Hell No!
F*ck No!!!

I contemplate the happy faces of people around me here in Ireland and reminisce about the happy normal life my family and I had before the war. A life that turned into a distant memory for us and was replaced by an unending series of horrible nightmares.
Unlike my family in Gaza, people here have access to drinking water, all types of food, electricity, and a roof over their heads. Above all, they are safe, and I cannot help but wonder if they genuinely do appreciate these blessings in their lives enough.
People seem relaxed and laughing wholeheartedly around me in Ireland. I wish I could laugh too, but I am crushed way beyond recovery on the inside. I was evacuated by my Irish college after five months of living the horrors of war in Gaza. I hope you will never know what it feels like to live in constant fear and worry and be horrified by the most sickening and scary nightmares every single night while you are far away from your family in such circumstances.
When did my people in Gaza cease to be human beings worthy and deserving of a normal life? Has it become normal now for my family in Gaza to be starved and killed while the whole world is watching the genocide? If that is the case, then you will have to excuse me if I seek every avenue to bring them to Ireland and start a new normal life like all people here around me.
I was assured by the Irish Reugee Council (IRC) and lawyers in Ireland that there is hope I can reunite with my family in Ireland. In difficult times, it is hard to see the light at the end of the tunnel. For me and my family, you are literally our light and hope for a better life.
SOS!
Please donate, reblog and share.
People say: "Family always comes First," and to that, I say: "Amen!".… Mahmoud Khalaf needs your support for Death chases my family in Gaza;
August could be my family’s last chance to evacuate to Ireland on reunification visas!
Our dearest friend,
We cannot possibly thank you enough for your donation to my family in this very critical time. The summer scorching sun makes living in tents beyond hellish for my children, wife, elderly parents and my entire family!! I die a thousand times everyday thinking of them all feeling I betray them if I do not spend every second of my day trying to save their lives!
Please continue to support us through donating and sharing our story with others. We will wish we never had to be in such conditions. We didn’t sign up for this whole thing. War is a terrible, terrible, terrible thing. May you never experience it in your entire life!
You are our only hope, please do NOT give up on us! Help me save the lives of my family! We count on you! Please do something…
Because I feel like kids of color don’t hear it enough: domestic abuse is not a part of your culture.
A lot of us were raised with the idea that “its normal for wives/children to get hit! it helps them learn– only white folk don’t get beaten when they misbehave”. That’s not true, white people aren’t the only ones who deserve a safe and abuse free environment. Black and brown people can and do have loving families.
If you’re in a situation where you are enduring abuse and people use your culture to justify it, I want you to know that what they’re telling you are lies.
as someone who studies this: statistically speaking, child abuse (including “spanking”, because all forms of hitting children are abusive) is pretty much equally prevalent in households of all racial, ethnic, and cultural backgrounds. so yeah, don’t let people use the “culture” excuse on you, but also, don’t believe others are experiencing it less just because it’s less normalized in their culture to talk about it. we all gotta work together to fix this shit.
Yes, this is the bitter truth that the world's media are trying to hide from you: Gaza is a genocide. Gaza has been annihilated, unfortunately. The world has witnessed a genocide that was filmed, documented, and broadcast live in full view of everyone.
The explosives dropped on the people of the Gaza Strip are equivalent to 20 nuclear bombs like those dropped on Nagasaki and Hiroshima. Does anyone still doubt that Israel committed and continues to commit genocide and ethnic cleansing against us here in the Gaza Strip?
We have been through so much, and we are still alive thanks to your help and donations. Without them, we would have perished long ago. The campaign has not received any donations in the last seven days, and the last donation was 7 days ago. Thanks to your donations, we can buy food and medicine and pay for the surgery for his daughter Iman, who was injured in her legs during the war. Iman is a child who needs care; she has already suffered enough during the first three of her eight years. Please don't hesitate to donate now. Please donate now.
GOFUNDME Please give this little girl hope and donate
I will not forgive anyone who sees this post and ignores me. I will not forgive anyone who sees this post and does not support me with a single word or a small donation, and ignores me.
If your automated moderation keeps making the same error over and over again and bans a bunch of trans women every six months or so then it's not an error it's a feature of the software. Even if we do believe it's unintentional (not a guarantee given the history of transphobia from flesh and blood moderators and the site owner) then it would still only be an error the first time. It KEEPS HAPPENING to the exact same minority group. If my car brakes don't work, the sixth kid I run over is not an 'error', it's unbelievable negligence.
“Love Languages” are just common couples therapy techniques mangled and repackaged by an unqualified homophobe. Relationships generally need all 5 love languages to be fulfilled, which is to say, everybody needs to communicate with, spend time with, and do things for their partners, and that’s got nothing to do with any special way you communicate affection.
MBTI has been proven completely ineffective at predicting anyone’s success at a particular job, and half the people who take it twice will get different results. Reputable psychologists do not recognize it, and the company that owns the rights to it uses it to scam people. People don’t adhere to strict binaries in basically anything. Very few people are going to be exclusively introverted or extroverted. It’s just astrology repackaged as pseudoscience. Shockingly enough, you can’t boil the complexity of the human experience down to a dozen Types of Guy.
The concept of IQ is flawed from the start— “intelligence” is an abstract concept that encompasses many different skills, from social intelligence to emotional intelligence to the very narrow kind of problem solving intelligence IQ tests generally measure for. It cannot predict how fast you learn, how much you know, or how logical and well read you are. It mostly measures how good you are at solving puzzles. Coincidentally, it’s also a pretty good predictor of income and education level, take a guess why. Most people’s IQ will change throughout their lives, because it’s inconsistent bullshit we’ve only held onto this long because we’re still kinda hoping we can breed the ubermensch. IQ tests and the way they attempt to categorize people are explicitly eugenicist and racist.
BMI was developed by a man known as the grandfather of eugenics, who first of all was a mathematician, not a doctor, and second never intended the formula to be used to categorize individuals. It’s intended to give a rough estimate of obesity in populations, and it’s not even good at that. It hangs around because of fatphobia and insurance companies who want it as an excuse to charge fat people more.
The study which determined people’s prefrontal cortex was still developing at 25… stopped measuring at 25. Evidence suggests your brain probably never stops developing. Stop infantilizing grown adults. This is a branch off from the larger mess of misinformation surrounding fMRIs.
If you haven’t put together what all these things have in common yet, here’s the moral of the story: STOP TRYING TO CATEGORIZE PEOPLE. STOP TRYING TO PUT PEOPLE IN A GODDAMN BIOLOGICAL HIERARCHY. EUGENICS IS BAD, AND WILL ALWAYS BE BAD, NO MATTER WHO’S DOING IT.
when black people protested over police brutality the optics were literally never in their favor. white people talked more about the ethics of disruption and vandalism and looting than they did police brutality. and when they maimed and kidnapped and murdered protesters, those names never went viral. so it's real insidious to see how public opinion sways when it's white people in the streets. white people can block traffic and trash ice headquarters. white people get a whole new narrative. they get the martyr treatment. then they act like this violence is unprecedented and something like this has never happened before and we all have to sit here and watch history get rewritten because white people want to be the heroes now. this shit is fucking diabolical.
and the funny thing is white people have truly learned nothing from these protests. their whole playbook was co-opted from blm and yet they're still making excuses for ice. the takeaway for them isn't that ice is inherently evil, it's that trump's ice specifically is untrained and violent. they think the national guard will save them. they think regular cops are on their side. how fucking laughable.
a feel like the new generation of fanfic readers NEED to understand that clicking on a fic (interaction) does nothing. ao3 has no algorithm. your private discord discussions of fic do not reach the authors. if you do not actively engage with writers they will stop posting. this isn’t social media this is community.
Even lefties I know will eventually concede to some situation where they think it’s right to force someone to carry a child against their will as if that’s not one of the most inhumane and cruel situations to put someone in regardless of any other factors
His father, the emperor Septimius Severus, was North African (the first African emperor of Rome!), and his mother, Julia Domna, was Syrian, from a wealthy priestly family
I mean, empires are always multi-ethnic, because that’s what happens when you conquer other countries for fun and profit.
The tendency to act like there’s only one ethnicity - the one that did the conquering - and the others aren’t really there is also part of the power structure.
rome wound up with emperors as the end state of a long period of recurrent civil war that started over whether to allow italians to be roman citizens.
this prominently included the largely latin-speaking ‘socii,’ who were the same damn ethnicity as the romans by modern standards, but they weren’t roman. also other kinds of italians including traditional enemies now subjugated. whole-ass civil war about their being sub-citizen inhabitants of the republican empire.
they got citizenship and later (after more civil war) even the vote, but the republic never recovered from the destabilization and in a couple generations tipped over into a standing dictatorship, where the vote no longer counted for as much; eventually, for nothing at all.
but there was a path to citizenship for any free man, through the army.
septimius severus was however born a citizen, in an equestrian family. through his mother, he was descended from a respectable italian line who’d moved to the libyan colony and intermarried with locals, but his father was entirely provincial. his uncle got the emperor to promote him to senatorial rank to help him run for office.
(wikipedia says he probably started out getting elected to overseer of road crews, and that he was DA at one point. also it’s his wife that was syrian.)
he happened to be in command of an army nearby, having been elected to the tier of public service where they gave you armies because that was how it still worked at that point, when commodus was assassinated. (the historical event gestured toward by the movie gladiator.)
the replacement for commodus got assassinated even harder, and severus’ troops promoted him to the top spot, and the senate apparently liked him better than the guy who bought the job from the guys who’d assassinated the last guy because they sided with severus. presumably to avoid establishing the precedent that the people who murdered the emperor got to pick the next emperor lol.
and then rome had its first provincial emperor.
i still don’t understand why gladiator 2 was about whatever it’s about instead of like. the actual year of the five emperors. wasn’t that dramatic enough.
