my friend just told me that there's a secret second dashboard that solely contains posts from people you've turned on post notifications for, and when i click the link in the messages it opens it within the tumblr app, so the tumblr app also has a secret second dashboard for post notification blogs, and the only way to access it is to open the link for it within the app.
This is - legitimately - my favourite delivery of Shakespeare I have EVER seen (and I have seen some good-ass productions yo, in the Globe Theatre itself even). Like seriously, even though the words are unchanged, heās stripped away ALL of the archaic pretense and assumed grandeur of ~presenting the bard~ that makes even the most wildly talented of actors and innovative of productions inherently inaccessible to a modern audience. Like, theyāre still great, they can still communicate the message and (some) of the nuance, but theyāre still always a step removed from being identifiable to any viewerās lived experience. Theyāre still always reciting 15th century poetry. But this guy? This guy is like, screw iambic pentameter, to hell with being precious about the material, HOW WOULD AN ACTUAL PERSON SAY THIS SHIT?
Like this. And itās beautiful. Itās beautiful to hear a soliloquy I loved so much already, and have it come to life in a way it never, ever, did before. I feel like I grasp his motivations, his twists and turns, no longer on an academic level but on a visceral, instinctive one. Because heās presenting his mental and emotional journey in a way that speaks honestly, like a real person.
So yeah, this shit post? I love it. Deeply and sincerely.
the Gaza Strip has been subjected to the most widely televised genocide of our generation. In the past year, the tiny plot of land, less than half the size of San Diego County, has been violated with an estimated 75,000 tonnes of bombs, placing it among the most deadly military conflicts in history. The Lancet estimated the death toll was at least 186,000 people in July, and a British public health official estimated that the death toll could be 335,000 in September. With all of Gaza's health infrastructure destroyed, it is difficult even to count the dead.
The genocide sparked worldwide protests and aid efforts. Donations to the Palestinian Childrenās Relief Fund, American Near East Refugee Aid, and the UN Relief and Works Agency surged. Activist collectives such as Connecting Humanity and Crips for eSims for Gaza raised millions of dollars toward keeping Gazans connected to the internet and cell service as their infrastructure was bombed.
Another form of activism emerged in the past several months, too. People in western countries began to fundraising for the evacuation of individual families in Gaza. Here's how it works: someone in a western countryāthe most popular site for fundraising, GoFundMe, only operates in the USA, Europe, and Mexicoāsets up an online fundraiser and shares it online. People in the organizer's social circle share it to their friends, and so on. Just like a regular fundraiser, except that eventually, strangers who connected with individual Palestinians online began promoting their fundraisers extensively and collaborating with one another to increase their collective reach. This has created an entire community on social media that's hard to ignore. If you've ever seen an Instagram video that started with "Stop! Don't scroll!" or "If you skip this video, you will be condemning my family to death," it is because of these networks.
the only way for foreigners to help a Palestinian family evacuate was to donate to a fundraiser. Since then, these fundraisers remain the only way to help Gazan families to raise money for daily survival and save money for when the border eventually, hopefully, opens.
Through my knowledge of Mtemblr, I ask you for help in raising funds. I try to help myself by myself, but I am unable alone, so I ask you to help me, knowing that I helped countless people with you. I had energy to help, but now I need you to get money as energy to continue the difficult days I live here in this small spot that almost kills us day after day, but we love it very much.

good news is my outdated mobile version still works fine. really awesome platform when a months out of date revision works objectively better than the most recent
hang on. if my months outdated mobile app still allows me to properly sort thru notes on post. does that not imply theyāre handling this change pretty much entirely frontend and just hiding/not loading the truncated parts of the chain?

I'm gonna be so real with you guys. I'm gonna be 100% honest. I really don't care if writing HP fanfic or rereading the books or buying unlicensed merch actually I directly benefits Joanne. my objection first and foremost is that anyone who knows that woman's politics and still refuses to get that wand out of their ass is just an insufferable dork.
the people trying to "um actually" and give me their crybaby sob story about why it's impossible for them, personally, to move on from HP are so funny. like. I don't care. you can't appeal to emotion or logic me out of this my principled philosophical stance is that I think you suck.
Perhaps this isnāt surprising because Iām a sweaty nerd that thinks most sports are incredibly boring but I hate that I canāt get the medicine I need easily because some people use it to cheat at shit that Literally Doesnāt Matter. Like yeah I guess it sucks if you care about sportsball that some people use substances to get an advantage but also what does that have to do with me. Could you imagine if you went to the store and they told you āsorry you canāt actually get this computer part without a license and seven technology specialist appointments because some people use it to cheat at Fortniteā Iām so over it!!
