everything surrounding the id laws that just passed in Kansas is fucking horrible

[terramythos]

Hey Bri I hope you don't mind me sharing this on your post but in case anyone reading this is in Kansas or knows trans people in Kansas, Colorado is nearby and considered one of the safest states for trans & queer people. I know relocating is logistically expensive and challenging for many reasons, especially for people in a vulnerable situation, but if it is an option anyone is considering, there is a nonprofit here that may be able to help.

Steps These steps are intended to be a linear process to get you out of there and resettled here. But we get it, you’re a big kid and can do

Mohammed @moxaeysh is the on-site vetter for @gaza-evacuation-funds and is credited with connecting donors here with countless Gazan families.

I hate to see his own campaign going so slow. Your donations are his sole lifeline. He has a lot of obligations. He is now married and has extensive obligations for him and his wife. The crossing will open as soon and when that happens he needs to have the means and capability to get out of Gaza and start a new life for his family.

Please donate what you are able to and share as much as you can.

He has an initial goal of £5000!

Let's help him reach that!

[mohdayesh]

We have 89 supporters and we reached 2890 pounds. I have a good idea. If we reach donor No. 100, he can contact me to give him a gift. It will be his own drawing or drawing of his name on the shore of the Gaza Sea. Continue to donate to reach donor No. 100.

Mohammed and Farah are a recently married couple in Gaza. They are fundraising to buy basic necessities like food and clean water. Please support them however you can!

Israel has blocked 37 aid organizations from operating in Gaza, including Médecins Sans Frontières (Doctors Without Borders)! This is a devastating blow to Gazans, especially with the difficulties the cold weather brings! Bomb-damaged houses in Gaza are collapsing due to the winter storms! At least 13 people in Gaza have died due to the cold weather and the lack of shelter and aid! People have drowned due to the floods! Palestinians and Gaza need our support!

Tanith Lee was the first woman to win the British Fantasy Award for best novel, for the second book of the Flat Earth series. She died in 2015. You can buy Tales From the Flat Earth here and here .

You can also borrow some of Tanith Lee’s books from the Internet Archive if you are unable to buy them.

Here’s a link to Night’s Master, the first book in the Flat Earth series.

I cannot recommend Lee’s work enough. And it pains me that I’d never even heard of her until last year.

The staff reported seeing a human femur and other bones on the roads, dead bodies abandoned in cars and “catastrophic human needs, particularly for food and safe drinking water.” But the U.S. ambassador to Jerusalem, Jack Lew, and his deputy, Stephanie Hallett, blocked the cable from wider distribution within the United States government because they believed it lacked balance, according to interviews with four former officials and documents seen by Reuters. Reuters is the first to report on the cable and why it was suppressed. Hallett and Lew did not respond to requests for comment.

I've seen a lot of people reblogging this as a shitpost but it actually is ~technically~ true, if you're willing to give the literal text "lentils.com" a bit of leeway. The modern DNS or "Domain Name System" wasn't established until 1985, and was created to establish human-readable addresses for IP addresses, so you didn't have to know the actual IP address of the website you wanted to visit. In other words, you don't need to call up the world carrot museum and ask for their IP address in order to visit their website, you can just go to worldcarrotmuseum.co.uk.

HOWEVER, the DNS system wasn't created whole-cloth, it was based on a library topic-categorization system that predated the dewey decimal system and was widely used across private and government libraries in england and, later, the united states. The system was called the Index Dominiorum, or "Register of Domains," and was pioneered by the Library of Oxford in 1731. It's first ever use was for the tracking and maintenance of agricultural records for major staple crops, with the list distinguishing between commercial and independently-grown crops, as subsistence farming was still how a lot of people got their food in england at the time. In this register of crop reports, one of the first (not the actual first first) records added to the list was a report on the production of commercial lentils, labeled "lentils, com." Because that same core registration system was used as the basis for the DNS nearly 3 centuries later, it can be argued that "lentils.com" was one of the first domains ever registered, along with similar commercial crop names like "barley.com", "rye.com", and "bulgur-wheat.com". Unfortunately, none of this is true, and i did just make it all up.

Oh hey, do you know what time it is? It is highly specific resource time!

Today we have the Royal School of Needlework Stitch Bank! There are HUNDREDS of stitch types in the RSN Stitch Bank.

And more added regularly, let’s look at a recent addition

I picked the first one in the 25 recently added Elizabethan stitches, the Elizabethan French Stitch

The stitch bank provides written and photo tutorials as well as a video option to learn to do it yourself. There are examples of the stitch in use, resources, references, everything but a needle and thread!

RSN Stitchbank

[vincentbriggs]

I looked at some of the tutorials last night and holy shit I'm so impressed! They're SO thorough! Not only do they have written and video instructions, but there are photo and illustration options for each image AND a "flip view" button so that left handed people can see all the images in reverse!

[theprofessional-amateur]

I am going to jump in and add, as you said they are very detailed in their directions, something that takes a lot of time and money.

If anyone who has enjoyed this resource has the means, I encourage you to adopt or sponsor a stitch to help keep this free to access. I know not everyone has the means to (fair, been there) but if you can, check out their sponsor options

RSN Stitch Bank Progress

And one other resource I have shared before, The Lady's Magazine. Embroidery patterns from 1770-1819. In case anyone wants some historic ideas for using all these new embroidery stitches

actually sickening to see half my dash just get nuked by staff at the behest of tme users every couple of months. like what do we even say at this point.

[mecha-girlie]

yall actually fucking suck. so many of you are so eager to taste that scrap of power, to be a part of the machine that removes trans women from the spaces we inhabit. it happens the same way in real life too, btw. in case you want to treat this as an “online debate.” it goes like this: an unfounded rumor goes around— she’s too aggressive, she’s abusive, she’s a rapist, whatever the fuck. say whatever you want and people will believe you, and never ever her. and then people— other queer people, and yes, other trans people— close rank. she is ousted from her life, from the connections she built, from her support system. and life goes on for the “queer community,” sans one tranny.

these methods are so fucking predictable, so frequently employed that we have a word for it in transfeminist circles. “HAL.” it stands for hot allostatic load, and you should click that link if what i’m saying here makes you uncomfortable. hopefully it’ll save the next tranny in your life, but i’m not holding my breath.

i hope those of you who contribute to this, who let this happen over and over, grow enough to feel some fucking shame at how readily you’ll burn your sisters to feel a little warmth. but who the fuck am i kidding? even if you do grow a conscience, you’ll never, ever apologize.

Save the flyer above and post it on your socials. Donations have dropped significantly by 50 percent since the ‘ceasefire’ was announced, but the bombing hasn’t stopped and not enough aid has reached Gazans.

With winter here, the need for comfort is more pressing than ever.

Why does everyone think fiction is just fantasy wish fulfillment now and not like an exploration of themes and ideas

[treecitysessions]

People will be like “this movie is evil and gross because it depicts a predatory relationship” and then you watch the movie in question and it’s about how preying on young women is bad and impacts their lives negatively

[treecitysessions]

“Why would they do this instead of just making everyone in the movie nice and normal and good” so we would have this conversation….

thanksgiving is a holiday based on a falsified narrative full of white guilt and the erasure of history so what are some good native organizations to donate to this coming thursday

[manbiteshog]

I would like to put my endorsement to the Sovereign Bodies Institute, home of the database of Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women. The database is trans-inclusive, the data protocols follow the desires of the families of MMIW, and this holiday season, they are collecting donations to buy gifts for the families, especially the children, of missing and murdered women.

I’d like to add Feeding Nunavut, the cost of living in the isolated north for Inuit is up to and sometimes over 5x the prices the rest of Canada is used to.
