If you want to support Ukrainians, DO NOT donate to Red Cross. Can't speak about their work in other countries, but they're useless in Ukraine. The only trustworthy international organisation I can think of is World Central Kitchen.

Donate to World Central Kitchen

And it's even better to donate directly to Ukrainian organisations. Here are a few good legit places:

hospitallers.life - "Hospitallers", Ukrainian paramedics on the frontlines

savelife.in.ua - "Come Back Alive", assistance to the army

prytulafoundation.org - "Prytula Foundation", assistance to the army, humanitarian causes

starenki.com.ua - "Starenki", helping elderly people

everybodycan.com.ua - "Everybody Can", helping disabled children, elders and hospitals

uanimals.org - "UAnimals", saving animals

I’m so sick of hearing the supposed dichotomy that women are allowed to express emotions but men aren’t. I feel like only radical feminists point this out sadly. But it’s like so many women repress their feelings and especially for the men In their life or because they do not want to be seen as an emotional vulnerable woman. Or feel like they have to take care of everyone before themselves. I’m sure my mom has hidden plenty of her emotional feelings from my dad. But, also men DO express their feelings. And can be quite selfish about it (obv women can too) but Like… it feels more like a stereotype of only conservative families that men “aren’t allowed to”. Like they do. And both sides get people upset at them for it. It’s just framed differently. It kind of pisses me off tbh.

‘A girl of genius’: archives unsealed of Amy Levy, queer Jewish writer admired by Oscar Wilde

Levy’s work was ‘ahead of her time’ and speaks to current debate around feminism, LGBTQ+ literature and Jewish identity, say researchers

For one of Victorian literature’s most distinctive voices, who was once hailed as a genius by Oscar Wilde, very little has been known about Amy Levy for more than a century. But audiences will now have the opportunity to become more deeply acquainted with a writer whose pioneering work explored women’s independence, Jewish identity and same-sex desire. The University of Cambridge has announced it has acquired and for the first time unsealed Levy’s personal archive, including letters, draft manuscripts, photographs and diary entries. It is expected the material will inform a wealth of new scholarship on her life, work and mental health. [...] Levy was born in 1861 into a middle-class Jewish family in London and entered Newnham College in 1879, becoming only the second Jewish woman among Cambridge’s first generation of female students. She wrote three poetry collections, three novels – including Reuben Sachs and The Romance of a Shop – numerous essays and a series of articles for the Jewish Chronicle. When she died by suicide in 1889, aged 27, she was recognised by her contemporaries as an exceptional talent, with Wilde writing her obituary and commending the “sincerity, directness, and melancholy” of her work.
