shadowhunters › season 3 › episode 4

For thousands of years, I was unable to bear a child. But then Valentine came to me and he asked for my blood for his unborn son. But I knew that my boy would be far too powerful for a mere Shadowhunter to raise. So, he eventually sent him to me and I loved him with all my heart. And I never knew if he loved me back until you killed him. And he called for me with his final breath. You will bring me 33 disciples so that my son can be reborn. And then I will destroy you, like you destroyed him.

mythology edits » athena, greek goddess of wisdom, handicraft, and warfare

“zeus slept with metis, although she turned herself into many forms in order to avoid having sex with him. when she was pregnant, zeus took the precaution of swallowing her, because she had said that, after giving birth to the daughter presently in her womb, she would bear a son who would gain the lordship of the sky. in fear of this he swallowed her. when it came time for the birth, prometheus by the river triton struck the head of zeus with an axe, and from his crown athena sprang up, clad in her armour.”

Surprise for @mione

Why in the name of Deliverance Dane did you let that thing loose?

[eases-deactivated20221014]

There is nothing more blatantly evil than people who want to take away free school lunches. How do you even begin to justify that. Being against free school lunch programs is literally saying you don’t think actual children deserve to eat. Many kids in these programs rely on free lunches as they ONLY meal they get in a day. How the fuck do these people sleep at night. How can you live not giving a shit that children starve

[emeraldmercury]

The reason why a lot of people are against school lunches is because midday meals in schools are often poor quality, not nutritious, and not hygienically prepared. There are children who have gotten food poisoning and sometimes even DIED from the school midday meals because the standards are just THAT low. 

However the solution for this is to IMPROVE midday meals to make them at least edible, not take them away entirely, because that would result in children from lower income brackets not going to school. 

[done-with-your-bs]

You could just pack your own lunch. It’s not the end of the world

[cowboybyeve-deactivated20200522]

are u dumb like do you have any brain cells bro like think man huh

[done-with-your-bs]

Says the one who can’t even write a sentence using proper punctuation and grammar. Go back to school, retard

[cowboybyeve-deactivated20200522]

you just suggested kids who cant afford to buy lunch should simply buy lunch 😂😂 guess next time i write an academic dissertation ill submit it to your backwards ass for marking though

[done-with-your-bs]

That’s not an argument. Fuck off and come back when you have something intelligent to say, inbred

[thes3nator]

They literally just pointed out to you that they can’t pack their own lunch because they can’t afford to buy groceries.

Nutrition plays a huge part in learning, so by not providing nutritious free lunches, we are doing our nation a disservice by not providing an optimal learning environment.

I’d rather pay the extra taxes to provide kids with more nutritious lunches so that every kid can meet their potential than let schools stunt kids learning because people are too lazy to shoulder a negligible extra cost for free lunches.

Another way to look at it is how much do you want to invest in your community’s future? Do you want more ignorant people running around because nobody wanted to invest in their education? Because in 20 years, these kids will be voting. I want them to be taught (and understand) critical thinking skills, don’t you?

ATTENTION! THIS IS IMPORTANT!

PLEASE BE AWARE! DO NOT BUY THIS DEODORANT! IT IS BAD!

This happened to my friend, she had an allergic reaction. It is undiluted and bad for your skin! Please reblog to bring awareness to this so no one else has to deal with it. PLEASE BE CAREFUL!

Yea, I had the misfortune of trialing a sample of this a while back.

Thankfully I did not put it on my underarms (cause I have enough problems) but did a swatch on my inner forearm and the resulting effect can only be described as a chemical burn. I contacted the company about it and they attributed it to my “personal sensitivities” and disclosed their ingredient list to me (which is no different from the one on the back of the label), and with all the oils in it, I have to say, it is diluted because there are plenty of good carrier oils in there.

So either their ratio of EO to Carrier Oil is dangerously out of proportion, or the oils used are synthetics, which would make them more prone to outbreaks in people with sensitive skin. Either way it’s a shit product (for people like me) and I would never recommend Schmidt’s to anyone, or any of their products.

I also got a sample of their toothpaste but I didn’t even put it in my mouth, the smell of it was positively sinus searing.

Not enough people seem to want to bother with “Battle For The Net, even though it’s super duper easy to use Battle For The Net because they made it easy for you, and it’s so quick to use because of how fast the internet is right now since the FCC haven’t destroyed the internet yet.

If you have a cellphone, they will text you and tell you what to do. They will give you a number to call and tell you what to do. The script basically is

“I Support strong Net Neutrality rules. Could you use the Congressional Review Act to overturn the FCC’s appeal?“

Can’t get texts? Worried that you’ll miss the phone number in the email? No problem! It’s [phone] and you should be updated fairly regularly on both email and text. (Provided you have either one.)

This takes maybe ten minutes at most. Five at least.

You can also “share” this on Twitter and Facebook without having to worry about what to say- it will provide exactly what you need to say for you.

Scroll down a bit and insert the state where you live and you’ll see

All you have to do is click on their faces and it will automatically send you to Twitter with a Tweet ready for them.

(It’s different for people who are voting for it.)

Again, this should take maybeee… Thirty seconds at most?

I know it sounds fake but you really do have a lot of silent lovers on this planet who look at you and wish they had your smile or your hair color or your humor or your intellect or your intentions or your heart, your manners, your eyes, your ease, even just you. People who are too shy to tell you what they admire about you or what they wish for you or who they see themselves becoming bc of you & they’re too shy to tell you. even tho it isn’t verbalized, the universe has still heard and the universe has loved you for helping out on its creations. You’re that person. You’re you.

“What can I do to help Syria?”

Well, after educating yourself and advocating for the rights of the Syrian people in their fight for freedom against a brutal dictatorship as well as naming and holding accountable those who aid the Assad regime such as Iran, Hezbollah and Russia among others, *breathes*, you can help by donating to any of the organisations/groups listed below. 

These groups mainly help on the ground in Syria providing aid; be it medical or psychological as well as food and clothes to those in need.

SAMS Foundation: the foundation works with Syrian American health care professionals and operates 106 medical facilities throughout Syria

Doctors Without Borders (also known as MSF): the organisation provides front-line medical treatment as well as providing drugs, medical supplies and equipment

Questscope: the organisation’s work is mostly centered on providing immediate trauma support and psychosocial counseling

Save the Children: the organisation is on the ground in Syria and in refugee communities providing children and their families with warm clothes, shelters, clean water and emergency care

Syrian Civil Defense (also known as The White Helmets): they are about 3,000 neutral, impartial and humanitarian Syrian volunteers who operate as first responders in rebel-held areas across the country. They were recently nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize.

Karam Foundation: the organisations is focused on educational opportunities for Syrian children, currently raising funds to rebuild schools in Syria.

NuDay Syria: the organisation’s mission focuses on bringing housing and food to displaced families with single mothers or wounded family members. They are especially concerned with the lack of safe shelter and living for single mothers with daughters.

Hand in Hand for Syria: the organisation provides aid including food, clothing, water, sanitation and crucial medical assistance 

According to the United Nations, there are almost 14 million Syrian refugees around the world (so far) in need of humanitarian aid. The groups below are mainly focused on helping Syrian refugees:

Migrant Offshore Aid Station: this charity exists to save children like Alan Kurdi, with a fleet of rescue boats patrolling the Mediterranean to save migrants lost at sea.

Refugees Welcome: dubbed as a kind of “Airbnb for refugees” this German nonprofit matches people with spare rooms with refugees in need of housing. If you don’t have a spare bed in Germany.

The Worldwide Tribe in Calais: a group of social activists documenting stories in the Calais migrant camp, they also raise relief funds.  

Small Projects Istanbul: the initiative provides classes and cultural enrichment and scholarships to Syrian children in Turkey.

International Medical Corps: they run a service center for Syrian refugees that provides medical care, classes and job training.

Medical Teams International: the organisation focuses on health and dental care for Syrian refugees in Lebanon. 

Mercy Corps: the group provides direct aid to Syrian refugees in the form of food and supplies, and by increasing access to clean water and sanitation, shelters, and safe spaces and activities for children

Shelterbox: the group has been providing emergency shelter and supplies to families affected by the Syrian crisis in Iraq Kurdistan, Jordan, Lebanon and Syria, including clothing, stoves and, water filters.

UNICEF: the UN agency focuses on assisting Syrian children by providing healthcare, nutrition, immunization, water and sanitation, and classes.

Oxfam: the nonprofit provides aid to Syrian refugees in Lebanon and Jordan such as clean water, sanitation services, and hygiene education to help ward of cholera and other intestinal diseases.

Yes, donating won’t stop barrel bombs from falling on besieged civilian areas (that comes by being vocal about Assad’s crimes) but it can definitely help create a start.

[tamarrud]

Speaking of educating yourselves, an initiative called Syria Social Campaign would send you one or two articles concerning Syria each week! You only have to submit your email address.

I have also found a more detailed list of things you can do to help aside from donations made by Syrian Solidarity Committee. I highly recommend going through it as it has many excellent recommendations.
