As a Muslim Hijabi woman, I’d rather have no representation at all than misrepresentation.
Believe me, I never cared about having hijabs in the game, I never felt the need to see myself represented in The Sims ever, but now that there IS a hijab I wish that everyone who uses it uses it right.
A hijab is an outfit that has to be not revealing and loose, it has to cover all skin and hair, except the face, the hands and maybe the feet.
Some hijabis do reveal their forearms, a bit of their hair, maybe ankles, or wear tight clothes, but that’s it! If you ever reveal the chest, the knees, the arms, or the hair, we’re no longer talking about hijabs. I can’t stress this enough.
Here are some illustrations I found by googling “types or hijab” :
please help a second generation Palestinian American escape a toxic prejudice household and afford a couple months of rent & food!!!!
hi everyone. i’ve known my situation was getting bad for a while. i’ve been living with three friends since 2019, who’ve shared the rent with me since we graduated from university. at first it was fine. we knew each other well enough because we took a class together. the problem is, they are racist. at first they hid it behind jokes, but as the months have gone on they’ve been increasingly more open about it.. particularly one of the girls, who will scoff at my rituals, and one time hid my hijab. when i was late to work she laughed and said it was a joke. i’ve wanted to leave for a while but i don’t have the money. with palestine getting constant news coverage – their gross comments have gotten worse, to the point that i don’t feel safe anymore. please help me afford a couple months of rent and food so i can get on my own two feet. please please please.

If all you can do is share it around then that’s awesome too, but I’d appreciate anything if you can’t donate please don’t!
Look, I know a good number of you are from the US and things aren't amazing there either, but my country is literally on the brink of collapse. So I'd love it if we could talk about that for a minute.
If you can't do anything else, please just read and reblog.
A second COVID wave has taken out the healthcare system. There are no more hospital beds. There's an oxygen shortage. There's a critical vaccine shortage. The Central Government has thrown its hands up and is passing the baton to the State Governments to do what they can.
There are over 16 million covid cases. A record 330,000 new cases reported yesterday - comparable to the US at its peak. 187,000 dead as of today.
There is no plan.
Mass cremations are taking place. The cremation grounds are running day and night and they are short on wood. People are watching their loved ones die while waiting for a hospital bed, and then they're unable to give them the proper burial rights.
Hospitals are overwhelmed. Patients are being confined, two to a bed. They're the lucky ones.
We are on the verge of people dying in the streets.
This is the second-most populous country in the world. The largest democracy. A country that encapsulates over 15,000 years of recorded human history and has endured everything from famine to invasion to colonisation.
We might be at the end. This might be the thing that does us in.
People are dying.
People are dying.
People are dying and there is no plan.
More good news? Variants are popping up. A double mutation strain has shown up. It is resistant to current vaccines. This will not go away. This is the devastation they warned of when the anti-maskers were out protesting the minor inconvenience of covering their face in public.
My country is on the verge of an emergency state. Our government has failed us. This is as dire a situation as it ever could be.
Look. I don't do much with my life. I write fics, some of you have read them and that's pretty much it. I spend my days with my head in the clouds because that's where I like to be.
But two days ago, my grandmother tested positive, had to be taken to hospital and the ambulance caught fire.
She barely made it to the urgent care she needs.
So, here I am, using whatever meager platform I have to cobble this request together. Because I have to do something.
