My main and longest lasting interests are Zelda, Pokemon, Nintendo's ARMS, and Golden Kamuy, but I also like Sonic, Disco Elysium, Pathologic, and I’m recently really into DBZ again
In Gaza, nothing is normal, and safety is just an illusion. My little sister was simply walking home from school, thinking about her day, her dreams, her future… when suddenly, a violent airstrike hit near her. In a single moment, everything changed. A piece of shrapnel struck her in the head.😔
She fell to the ground, covered in blood. We found her not moving and since that moment, our lives have been frozen in fear.
Now she is in the ICU, unconscious, fighting between life and death. I can’t describe the pain of seeing her like this my sister, who was laughing just hours before, is now connected to machines, barely breathing.
Doctors told us she urgently needs surgery to remove the shrapnel from her head. Without it we might lose her forever.
We need $1,200 immediately. Every minute matters. Every second could be the difference between life and death.
Please… don’t scroll past this. I’m begging you from the bottom of my heart don’t let her die. She is not just a number, not just another story from Gaza. She is a daughter, a dreamer, a child who deserves to live.
We have nothing left but hope and your kindness
Even the smallest donation could save her life. Please stand with us. Please help us bring her back.🙏😔💔
I don’t want to lose my sister… I can’t 😭💔

they've really got a whole stockpile of arabic copies of mein kampf so they can keep pulling this stupid ass obvious plant over and over and over again
These aren't just any scarabs--these are bess beetles! They live together in big families in logs, and make sounds to communicate with each other. They have eight known "words"!
I'm always curious what bug non-bug-nerds think they would be, but I know 99% of the time the answer is going to be the same few answers. There's nothing wrong with that of course, picking the "boring" option is ok (There is a strong argument to be made about how we only view a select few bugs as "the good ones" because we decided they look cute, but that's not the fault of the subject of this post), but there are so many more interesting options if people just knew a little more about bugs.
So, here's a bit of homework: Gimme what bug you think you would be, BUT it cannot be a bee of the family Apidae (honey bee, bumble bee, carpenter bee, etc.), a Lepidopteran (moths, including butterflies) of any kind, a jumping spider (Salticidae), or a ladybug (Coccinnellidae). That should leave y'all with a good amount of more vague options, but bonus points if it's a particular species and double bonus points if it's an especially uncommon one (but remember, this is what bug you think you would be, so don't feel pressured to pick an extremely uncommon pick if you know for sure you would be, for example, a hercules beetle).
For sources of inspiration, there are plenty of places to go looking, but if you want to go with something you might be able to spot IRL then you can go to iNaturalist and check species observations around your region!
Oh, and my answer is Sphex ichneumoneus, the great golden digger wasp :]
For clarification, I'm using the "terrestrial arthropod" umbrella definition of 'bug' here, but aquatic or semi-aquatic arthropods could be allowed if you want (if I cut aquatic and semi-aquatic crustaceans I would probably need to cut several semi-aquatic insects as well for the sake of consistency, so I'm not doing that)
worth noting btw, this video is not just an unrelated funny clip. limmy streamed this live on justin.tv the day she died (he was also not shirtless for any of the stream till he began this moving, heartfelt tribute)
Can’t go a day without seething in rage about how “Woke” was coined to discuss the pervasive nature of antiblack racism throughout all societies and got so fucking mangled by the white masses across all political spectrums that it practically doesn’t mean anything anymore. It’s almost a joke of itself.
During the height of the Ferguson protests, you’d see posts about how the system is designed to oppress the Black community and being unaware of how it operates is akin to being asleep, so you must stay Woke. (Woke as a term in the Black community actually has a long standing history but we’ll focus on this period of time for now). You have to keep your eyes open to the truth, that’s what it was about.
And now it’s used to discuss whether or not it’s woke for a brunette to wear jeans, or if using your turn signal is woke. It honestly makes me want to puke
Please guys, any small donation affects Nour's life. She suffers from thyroid enlargement, which makes it difficult for her to breathe and requires treatment and surgery. If you cannot donate, share the post.
I love and admire coyotes; their ability to survive, adaptation, and tenacity has been nothing less than inspirational. They've always been here, and will still be here.

Guys, while the world is busy with other wars, Gaza is being forgotten.
We are still here, living through days that are harder than words can explain.
Everything is a struggle now.
Water is not guaranteed.
Food is not enough.
Medicine is almost impossible to find, and when it exists, it is too expensive for us.
And in the middle of all this… my father is sick.
He needs treatment.
He needs care.
But I cannot give him what he needs.
I watch him every day, getting weaker, and I feel helpless.
This is not just about hardship.
This is about a life that can be lost if help does not come in time.
We are doing everything we can just to survive, but it is not enough anymore.
We need you.
Help my father. Help my family. Share this.
📌 Fundraiser vetted (#167 by el-shab-hussein & nabulsi), But we created a new GoFundMe page because GoFundMe suspended the beneficiary’s account on the platform, which put us in a very difficult situation.
March 29, 2026 - Israeli occupation forces attacked Palestinian Christans and foreign Christian pilgrims in Jerusalem, outside the Church of the Holy Sepulchre.
Israeli police also prevented Cardinal Pierbattista Pizzaballa, the Latin patriarch of Jerusalem, from entering the Church of the Holy Sepulchre to mark Palm Sunday Mass. The Catholic Church said on Sunday that Pizzaballa and Francesco lelpo, the official Guardian of the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, were both prevented from entering the church.
“As a result, and for the first time in centuries, the Heads of the Church were prevented from celebrating the Palm Sunday Mass at the Church of the Holy Sepulchre,” the statement said. “This incident is a grave precedent and disregards the sensibilities of billions of people around the world, who, during this week, look to Jerusalem,” it added.
Israel has been doing this same thing to Palestinian and foreign Muslims trying to observe the holy month of Ramadan in Al-Aqsa Mosque for years and years, but now the Jewish-supremacist Israeli's have apparently radicalized so much that they don't even care about how they're perceived by their foreign Christian allies and are just shitting on their religious rights as much as they have been doing to the Palestinians.

The crux of the anti trans movement is a war on bodily autonomy. They don't want you to have any agency over what you look like, how you dress, who you date, whether to have kids, etc.
They want total control over you. Not just trans people. Not just queer people. You. Everyone.
Trans people are just a scapegoat. They want total control over everyone's self expression. They want the right to mold you into their perfect little cog in their dehumanizing machine.
Happy Trans Day of Visibility. Our rights are your rights. Our destruction is your destruction.
According to people who work with code, this may actually be able to close a 911 call because Trump wants to send a fundraiser email through it.
It also seems like it will go off, sound and vibration, whenever someone posts. Trump is awake at 2 AM. You will not be able to shut off your phone or stop the noise until you handle this. It will also drain your battery by being a surprise 2 AM noisemaker.
Don't put it on your phone. It's actually stealing less data than I expected (I mean, yes, OBVIOUSLY it's tracking your location and sending that to any cop who's bored, but it isn't taking any credit card info, so hey, that's nice), but it still can access and fuck up anything saved on your phone, record any unlocking method you use including fingerprint and face, and seems to want to do so to force you to suddenly have an explosion of noise.
Again: this may extend to dropping a call for an ambulance.
