I've wanted that endlessly free body of yours… for so long. Why didn't you kiss me that day? I wanted your body and soul so badly. I never wanted to become an adult. So, let's make time stand still, okay?
the pistachio food trend is soooo interesting because it's like. i've been following the californian pistachio water politics for years, as a californian with personal connections to agricultural workers but! basically there's been a big push in california agriculture over the last decade to pressure farmers to produce pistachios, because iran has dominated the global market in pistachios for decades, and the US government has been trying to weaken iran economically, so they want to make california pistachios a competitor. which is ridiculous, because california's agricultural infrastructure is suffering under a drought, and pistachios take insane amounts of water. so a ton of water is being redirected from the people in order to engage in a trade war with iran over fucking. pistachios.
anyway now that the US (i.e. california) is producing more pistachios than iran, the next step is to drive consumption of pistachios, so that the farmers who are producing these pistachios can continue to make money on them. ergo all the fancy pistachio coffees at starbucks and similar shit like suddenly being able to find pistachio butter in grocery stores when five years ago it was exclusively available at specialty stores and online, and the huge boom in pistachios foods in instagram and tiktok recipe content. like i watch a lot of instagram foodie reels (cooking/baking is one of my hobbies) and these get thrown onto everyone's feeds, to promote the purchasing of pistachios, so that the US can stick it to iran. it's. kind of incredible to watch this happen in real time, because it sounds like deranged conspiracy thought, but like. i've been watching this trend for the past decade and it's fucking real.
anyway one of the vegan recipe accounts i follow just posted like five pistachio-based recipes in a row and it makes me feel some kind of fucking way
it is extremely relevant that pistachios are so easy to acquire here, but acorns, which are an indigenous California food staple crop, are impossible to find even in the best stocked grocery stores, and knowing how to prepare them for consumption is a rarer skill than sourdough starter
Riyad suffers from skin rashes and allergies due to the severe diarrhea he suffered due to the unhealthy milk and pollutants that surround us. He is a displaced infant in Gaza, where everything has become very expensive and access to health care and appropriate medicines has become very difficult. Moreover, we are now suffering from the high cost of living and the necessities that our child needs, such as healthy milk and diapers that do not cause skin irritation. My baby is only 7 months old,

My heroic friends who support the Palestinian cause... Today, after we have lost hope in this world, I ask you to help us and stand bye🍉💔🙏🇵🇸
Sudan: *Artifacts and artwork gets looted from the National Museum and gets sold on e-Bay*
Everyone: *Ignores*
Sudan: *The RSF executes all of the men in the village of Al-Seraha and 100+ women have committed suicide so they are not subjected to sexual violence.*
Everyone: *Pays attention but then forgets a few days later*
I honestly don't know what to do anymore. What can I do so you can spare a glance at Sudan? It is like you see what is happening but you would look away and forget about it. Please stop doing that. Instead, show your support. Help my dear friend, Randa (@rnd8). She needs to evacuate her 2 brothers who has been left behind while her father and 3 sisters have reunited with her in Rwanda. She also needs our help to pay the debt from a failed visa application, living expenses, and rent.
So let's help her raise 27K in 3 days! €26,058 has been raised. There is €924 left to go. You can match me! I've given €10, but you're more than welcome to give any amount! You can even participate in a book raffle hosted by @/magnus-rhymes-with-swagness if you show your proof of donation!

With the blockade imposed by Israel, it is extremely important to support grassroots organizations. They provide aid to multiple families on the ground. The Sameer Project is one organization. It is led by 4 Palestinians in the diaspora and Gazans are risking their lives while distributing the aid to ensure families are accommodated.
The Sameer Project provides food and shelter. As you know, the rainy season is persistent and many families have been displaced by the sea. The high tide has caused many to lose their tents, the only shelter they have. So please donate to the Sameer Project! With your support, they can branch out to families across the Strip!
Here is their Linktree, which also includes Venmo and PayPal.

If you ignore this, you are condemning Adam to death
I speak to you from the heart of a mother who is watching her son collapse before her eyes 💔😥
My heart bleeds with pain for Adam whose weak body cannot bear the catastrophic environment in which he lives
He lost 15 kilograms of his weight due to the lack of special food for a disabled child who has difficulty swallowing and digesting
Now he suffers from a health problem that has affected his respiratory system as a result of the dust, destruction and polluted environment surrounding him
He suffers from muscle spasms due to the lack of medicine, as he needs medicine that he takes in two doses daily, morning and evening
Imagine with me, O human, that you have a disabled child and you stand helpless, unable to provide him with food, medicine or shelter, as we live in a tent that resembles a grave
Your donation may save Adam from death 🙏💙
Adam will enjoy health and wellness if you provide him with his food and medicine

Hello, My name is Mosab Elderawi, and I live in Gaza with my family. Life here has become harder than I ever imagined, and I’m writing this with hope in my heart that you might hear our story.
The ongoing war has devastated my family. We’ve lost 25 family members—each one a beloved part of our lives, taken too soon. I miss them deeply—their laughter, their presence, their love. Every day is a reminder of this unimaginable loss.

We are now facing daily challenges to survive—things that most people take for granted, like food, clean water, and a safe place to sleep. The harsh realities of life here have replaced our dreams with the constant fight for survival.
Our Current Situation:
💔 Lost Stability: The war has left us without work or a stable source of income. 🍞 Basic Needs: Food and water are becoming harder to afford with rising prices and scarce resources. 📚 Dreams on Hold: Like so many here, my family’s dreams have been replaced by the need to simply survive. 😢 Unimaginable Loss: Losing 25 loved ones has left a void that can never be filled.
How You Can Help:
I’m sharing our story with the hope that someone out there might care. Even $5 can make a big difference for us, and if you’re unable to donate, just reblogging this post can help spread the word.
Your kindness, no matter how small, is something we’ll never forget.
What This Means to Us:
Your support is not about changing our entire situation—it’s about giving us a little relief, a little hope, and a way to keep going. We are not asking for much, and we understand if you can’t donate. Sharing our story is just as valuable to us as a donation.
Thank you for reading this far. It means the world to us to know that someone is listening. Your kindness gives us strength and helps us believe in a better tomorrow.
With all our gratitude, Mosab Elderawi and Family ❤️
