Ok but taylor swift just donated $26 million to NYC food pantries so you should educate yourself before blindly hating on her
That's about 1% of her 2.1 billion dollar net worth. That's like praising someone because they have $100 and put $1 in the McDonald's charity bucket. Scratch that - it's like praising someone for putting $1 in the charity bucket after totally trashing the McDonald's (carbon emissions) and barring the employees from getting inside (shutting down transport hubs). Idgaf about her meagre donations honestly.
so this post has blown up; turns out a lot of people feel the same way I do. If you're feeling conflicted or upset over 4th of July, I've compiled a list of educational resources and charities, both regarding US and international issues, which you can look into if you'd like. Issues here include humanitarian aid to Gaza, Ukraine, and the Caribbean, as well as reproductive, LGBT, BIPOC, and disability rights in the US.
woke up and saw people were reblogging this again. anyway, yeah. america is still being really mean and I do not want to go to its birthday party today
if you would like to spite the really mean people even more today, consider donating to raices con voz. they're a student-led organization in los angeles, who deliver food and essential supplies to immigrant families who can't leave their homes due to the ICE raids. More information about them here
EDIT: Had to fix the link! please reblog this version instead
another year of not wanting to go to america's birthday party in two days. because it's really mean. so we should help the people that america is being really mean to
in keeping with tradition, here is a link to unicef's fund for emergency health supplies and services for survivors of the venezuela earthquakes.
here is another link for manos in action, an organization that delivers supplies, such as food and childcare items, to latin american immigrants in central florida. I've participated in one of their local food drives; they're great. if you're not local to central florida, you can always donate money.
the other links are still available too, so feel free to check those out!

“I don’t understand,” Grace said, apologetic and strained, a long-associated awkwardness with uncomfortable social interactions making itself known. He was lost, uncertain. Unsure of what to do or say other than state the obvious; falling back on the fact of the situation. And the fact was that Simon absolutely shouldn’t be standing up right now, “Let’s- Why don’t we get you settled back into bed? Your arm is-”
“Mmmmm…”
The sound cut through the space between them like a knife, serrated and jagged and leaving a ragged gash behind. Simon tilted a little further, leaning into the window like everything would fall away from under him if he dared to let go. At first, Grace thought it was just another sob, another involuntary cry, but he saw the way the remains of Simon’s mouth twisted, turned. Muscles pulling down and up, Adam’s apple dipping in response to thoughtful tongue movement. Intentional despite the agony it clearly caused.
“Mmm I- ehm,” Simon tried, words distorted and as bent out of shape as the jaw that formed them. Sounds warped and slurred and dragging themselves to collapse as soon as they breached his lips. A tinge of blood leaking out of the corner, flashes of anemia-pale gums that grew redder with every passing attempt. Desperation becoming frustration, becoming anger - a stoking Grace could see picking up behind his eye in a flash of gold and a streak of green. Simon made a fist again, struck the window harder. The smear of blood became a rivulet that worked its way down to his collarbone, chest heaving, spine curving as though subjected to a tremendous weight. He wobbled dangerously, struggling to keep his body from veering to the right.
“Ah-mmmm I…” A rasping wet gulp of air, a whined note of pain to place a plosive consonant against a misaligned alveolar ridge. Grace could feel an empathetic echo ache on the left side of his own face, the thought of exposed gum and muscle forced to move, the cracking of newly formed scabs, enough to make him feel nauseous. Simon screwed his eye shut, “D- ehm-d?”
It took a moment of gathering the sounds and rolling through them in his head, brain making comparisons and approximations when they weren’t good enough to work the noises into one coherent phrase. Ah-mmmm I d-ehm-d? Am I d-ehm-d? Am I deh-d?
Am I dead?

Or: Grace has never been the best at dealing with difficult emotions.
shout out to book!grace, who blasted himself with 29 atmospheres worth of 210c (410f) degrees hot straight ammonia, in the hopes that rocky would survive. who carried rockys whole 168kg (370lbg) down ladders in a make-shift carrier. who turned around for rocky, fully expecting to die of starvation. sigh. who was just a little bit more of a bitch than movie!grace (whats that one quote where hes like "if i had a nickel for every parent i wanted to slap during my career, id have enough to fill a sock and hit them with that instead"). who was purposefully given memory loss, so he wouldnt sabotage the mission (something he threatned many times). who wasnt "friendless", like he was depicted in the movie. i miss you so bad. you were everything.
a non definitive guide to markiplier x ryan gosling ships
with both of these coming from very different spheres of the internet, there are a lot of people who are only familiar with one of their respective filmographies, or even not familiar at all barring recent releases. if you've been seeing different markiplier characters get shipped with different ryan gosling characters, and wanted to know what that was all about, here is a list with everything I have seen so far and as many links as possible. a lot will be links to the one or two posts that make up the entire content for that fandom since none of these are anywhere near as big as bloodymary.

developing the hots for ryan gosling because of project hail mary is so fucking embarrassing I swear to god. that is a conventionally attractive man. a noted hollywood heartthrob. he's even blond, are you kidding me? did he win people magazine's sexiest man alive? I don't know. I'm not going to check but it wouldn't surprise me at this point. it's such a mainstream taste. such a clichéd celebrity crush. like oh I fancy ryan gosling and my favourite drink is coca-cola and my favourite snack is ready salted crisps. jesus christ. 'b-b-but i only like him when he's in a science pun tshirt and playing a dorky-awkward loner type!' doesn't matter. he's still ryan 'ken from barbie' gosling. it's so trite. I feel like the weird nerd girl in a teen coming-of-age romcom falling for the super popular jock. don't I know that I have a reputation to uphold here? cringe.
