OP turned reblogs off but as someone with a crazy wicked scar that's been called "body horror" a few times, I really wanted this on my blog
in fact I think all of these are beautiful, cool, neat, or just neutral. nothing negative about any of it. also goes for implants, I've known people with implants of all kinds be made fun of, but that shit isn't ugly or gross either, it's just neutral and or positive

Thank you for everything you have done for the purpose of education, thanks to you everything will be fine.
Now, guys, I have a very important goal, you know, we are at the beginning of a new month, and I need to collect the costs of renting the house, as we do at the beginning of each month.
This goal, as I said before, is the most important for the benefit of my family, because shelter and housing are the most important thing we find in these difficult times.
I have a deadline until the 10th of this month only. Maximum to collect $700. So that I can pay the costs in a timely manner.
Hello guys, this fundraiser was created with the help of my friend Adam.
Our goal is to help … Adam M needs your support for Help Samir
If I don't pay the rent in time, we will be kicked out, without shelter, and that's what I'm afraid, guys. Please, I don't want my family to lose their security and stability. You guys are our only hope.
I mean you meet these young people trapped in their classrooms or nuclear families in paved over neighborhoods, you are going to see them at the lowest points of forced routine, atomization, gutted autonomy, academic stress, you are going to see them at their worst. you’re going to see addictive behavior. bad social skills. lashing out. uncreativity. laziness and distraction. they do look totally cooked.
you need to take them into the woods
I do outdoor education work, and within minutes of any elementary to middle schooler getting free permission to mess around with their friends in a clearing, they’re curious and driven again. they’re asking each other questions and yeeting pinecones at trees (science) and using their bodies. sometimes for evil. as is developmentally right. they want to know the names of birds! they want to teach someone pokemon! they want to build stuff and kick stuff and tackle each other and you into the snow!
they’re basically fucking institutionalized for 90% of their lives but their spirits are alive. you need to take them into the woods you need to treat them like animals with powerful inner lives and they’ll show you they are.
and you, if you feel like you’re relating too much, remember that you can also take YOURSELF to the woods
Hey remember when US and Russia was all like “We’re the best!!! We’ve won the space race!!!!” But India sent a kick-ass space probe to Mars and the whole mission was fuel efficient, costed less and a roaring success in the first try and then they were like “…..wait no that can’t be true” and still have the audacity to call us “underdeveloped” or only view us as a ‘third world country’? :)
For anyone who needs more info, the probe was called Mangalyaan (which literally means space probe vehicle) or Mars Orbiter Mission (MOM) and you can also get more information here and here
and shout out to the women engineers integral to the launch
“Indian staff from the Indian Space Research Organisation celebrate after the Mars Orbiter Spacecraft entered Mars’s orbit.
On November 5, 2013, a rocket launched toward Mars. It was India’s first interplanetary mission, Mangalyaan, and a terrific gamble. Only 40 percent of missions sent to Mars by major space organizations—NASA, Russia’s, Japan’s, or China’s—had ever been a success. No space organization had succeeded on its first attempt. What’s more, India’s space organization, ISRO, had very little funding: while NASA’s Mars probe, Maven, cost $651 million, the budget for this mission was $74 million.
This was not the only success of the mission. An image of the scientists celebrating in the mission control room went viral. Girls in India and beyond gained new heroes: the kind that wear sarees and tie flowers in their hair, and send rockets into space.”
"If both your parents are black and both sets of grandparents are black and both sets of great grandparents are black, why do you look white?"
It's an embarrassing story, but I'll share.
So I used to be black, but then I was working at this company with this really bad CEO who was just named CEO. He was also an alpha male, and I'm a beta, so idrc about that shit. But anyways, this one omega chick named Y/N joined, and the CEO became OBSESSED with her. I tried to steer clear of Y/N bcuz she seemed pretty annoying, and whatever she had going on with my boss was NOT my business.
But, one day, I was sitting at my cubicle, and I hear Y/N tell the CEO how she's scared of the dark, and I was just thinking, "yeah, that's a common fear!" But then I look up at the CEO and he's CHARGING at me at full speed, and then he just STEALS AWAY MY BLACKNESS??? Istg, my skin turned like 3 shades darker, and I was just like, "?!?!"
So, yeah. That's why I look white. I'd ask for my skin color back, but that CEO is aggressive as shit and I'm pretty sure he has a few murders on his hands. I like living and I don't wanna be fired, so I'm not even gonna bother trying to get it back.

I am raising funds to support my elderly parents who are currently living in extremely difficult condition… Mohammed H needs your support f
💔 My Mother’s Life Depends on Your Kindness
My mother is in Gaza, where every day is a struggle to survive. Some time ago, she was injured when shrapnel from nearby shelling struck her back. She tried to endure the pain for as long as she could, but her condition has become much worse.
Today, my mother is in critical condition. She suffers from unbearable back pain, extreme exhaustion, and her suffering is increasing with every passing day.
After examining her, the doctors told us that she urgently needs emergency back surgery. They warned us that delaying the operation could lead to serious complications and further deterioration of her condition.
The cost of this life-saving surgery is $1,000.
Thanks to the kindness of generous people, we have managed to raise only $188 so far. While we are deeply grateful for every donation, we still need $812 to reach the goal.
For my family, trapped in the devastating conditions in Gaza, raising this amount alone is simply impossible. Every day we wait means more pain for my mother and more fear that her condition will become irreversible.
Iam begging you from the bottom of my heart: please help us save my mother.
Every donation no matter how small brings us closer to giving her the urgent surgery she desperately needs. And if you cannot donate, please share this post with your friends and family. Your share could reach someone who is able to help.
Please don’t let my mother’s pain continue because we couldn’t raise the remaining $812 in time.
Thank you for your kindness, your prayers, and your compassion. ❤️🙏
Tragically, my wife's heart suddenly stopped beating tonight.
I stood there frozen, unable to breathe as I watched her collapse before my eyes. I truly thought I was losing her forever, and I will never forgive anyone who sees this post, scrolls past it, and doesn't even support me with a single word.
Doctors said her condition is extremely critical, and that severe weakness caused this terrifying moment. Without urgent treatment, it could happen again at any time. So I am begging you can you help me get the treatment that could save my wife's life
I am begging you as a husband in Gaza, watching the love of my life suffer before my eyes while I cannot afford the treatment that could save her. Please don't wait. Donate now and help me save her life before it's too late.
I don’t know how many more times I can come here and ask for help. Every post I write comes with tears, because my mother’s life is all I can think about.
Yesterday, her condition became much worse , I can’t stop replaying those terrifying moments in my mind. Standing beside her hospital bed, watching her struggle, feeling completely powerless… it’s a pain I can’t put into words. The doctors told us she urgently needs this heart procedure, but we’re still waiting because we don’t have the money.😔
We’re only $600 away from the urgent heart procedure she needs. Such a small number to some people, yet for us it feels like the distance between hope and despair.💔
If your mother were the one in that hospital bed, you wouldn’t stop fighting for her not for a second. That’s exactly what I’m doing now.💔😔
If you’re reading this, please don’t close this post and move on. Be the reason I can finally look my mother in the eyes and tell her, “Mom, we’re going to make it.”
Please… don’t be another person who says, “Someone else will donate.” You could be the reason we reach our goal today. You could be the reason my mother gets the chance to receive the treatment she urgently needs. Even the smallest donation could change everything for us.
Please help us reach the last $600. Every donation brings me one step closer to saying those words to her. 💔🙏
