chipped
Man, this is such a perfect analogy. āChippedāā¦ Just damaged enough for it to show at times, but not nearly broken enough to warrant fixing. And so often does the chipped cup turn itself to show its undamaged side.

HOMELESS, TYPE ONE DIABETIC, NO INSULIN
my name is katie, i am from the indianola/des moines area of iowa (not exactly but close enough). when i turned 18, i immediately got kicked out, and in a long story short, told to figure things out on my own since i was an adult. i have been homeless since January of last year. i am type one diabetic, and being diabetic- my medicine is super fucking expensive. being homeless, ive reached low blood sugars ive never reached before, and extreme highs with possible ketoacidosis. roughly, my medicine costs anywhere from 200-300, depending on if i get both humalog and lantus, test strips, etc. i have been looking for a job basically since i was first homeless. it is hard however because i dont have working service on my phone, so no number or texting, and i also dont have a pernament address, or even nice clothes to present myself in a way that is appealing to employers. this city has a strict no homeless policy and you can get fined heavily if caught sleeping out in public, there are many homeless shelters around me, but every single one has a 1 to 2 year waiting list. A question people always ask is, how are you on tumblr? well luckily our local mcdonalds has free wifi (a few other places as well), and the library and mcdonalds both have charging stations. everytime i get any remote amount of money it goes directly towards my insulins and test strips, which i need to them to live. any money that is saved up goes towards that, therefore i am not able to save for a place to stay, or presentable clothing, or to turn on my phone.
LONG STORY SHORT
i am in desperate need of insulin and test strips, with this crisis going on my insulin is extremely expensive. for one of my insulins it is a 500 fee. I NEED THIS INSULIN TO SURVIVE, PLEASE REBLOG OR DONATE IF POSSIBLE. i have a compromised immune system already, and with high blood sugars it gets easier to become sick. PLEASE REBLOG OR DONATE IF POSSIBLE. i need to have this post boosted before the pharmacy jacks up the fees again.

I need to be the healthiest i can be guys! being homeless and type one diabetic makes me very susceptible to this virus.
I am 350 away from my humalog insulin
I am 200 away from my lantus insulin
Reblog please!
if you guys could reblog it really sucks being homeless with all this chaos...): any money goes towards insulin or shelter so i can stay healthy.
I made an eye patch and I feel EXACTLY like an anime character and like I get why theyāre so dramatic
I get it now
having no depth perception makes you wanna start shit
It is a good day to remember that tumblr fame gets you one thing, and that is yelled at
itās like real fame but without the money
I can get that without fame or money.

New cookbook features unique kosher dishes unwittingly prepared by generations of a Catholic Cuban-Spanish family with hidden Sephardic Jewi
The wonderful @heavyweightheart shared this awesome article with me some months ago, and I'm still cackling madly at the sheer huevos on the women who developed this recipe:
That's a dessert - a type of French toast, if you will - that's meant to look like chuletas, pork chops, and to throw off nosy neighbours set on selling out their crypto-Jewish (don't get confused here, crypto as in hidden) neighbours to the inquisition.
Y'all. These kickass women developed a kosher, pork looking dish. That's classified as milk š
Anyway, read the article. I'm just focusing on the spite bits, bc gremblin. ĀÆ\ _(ć)_/ĀÆ It is about a woman who was tipped off about her Jewish roots based on her family's recipes, which had been passed down to her:
When Milgrom was in her 30s, as a young divorcee she felt drawn to Judaism and she converted to Modern Orthodox Judaism. She married a Jewish man and then discovered she might have Crypto-Jewish heritage. She realized that her familyās unique culinary habits were actually related to kashrut ā the Jewish dietary laws ā and other commandments surrounding food preparation. For instance, tearing off a bit of dough and burning it is calledĀ hafrashat challahĀ (separating challah), a Jewish religious commandment stemming from a biblical sacrifice.
The best detail about this entire story is that she had already gone back to Judaism before she even found out she was bnei anusim :')
Anyway, her cookbook sounds amazing. Some of her recipes sound a little like how @sefarad 's nonna makes things like bimuelos, measuring in egg shells and the like.

I have no idea what emotion this is conveying but I feel it in my soul
hereās the thing about adulthood-
you will go for like three months with nothing happening and youāre bored as hell and then in the span of two weeks eight different things happen at once - some fantastic and some shitty and some just plain bonkers - and youāre just running around like a chicken with your head cut off and no clue what the fuckĀ is going on
YOU AINT LYING
Okay but this would actually be an incredible thing for social anxiety?
Librarians must resist trumpism
Radical librarian Jason Griffey (previously) wants librarians to continue their 21st century leadership in the resistance to surveillance and persecution ā a proud record that includes the most effective stands against GW Bushās Patriot Act ā by pledging to make libraries safe havens from trumpism and its evils: electronic surveillance; racial and gender-based discrimination; and the assertion that ideology trumps empirical reality.
Neutrality favors the powerful, and further marginalizes the marginalized. In the face of the current political climate, with the use of opinions as bludgeons and disinformation as the weapon of choice for manipulation and intellectual coercion, it is up to those who value fact and believe in the care of those in need to stand up and positively affirm that to do otherwise is evil.
For libraries and librarians, that means:
1. Making the physical space of the library safe for those that need it by publicly stating your stance on the targeting of marginalized communities and then following up with actions and policies that back up those statements
2. Protecting your patrons from targeting and oppression, even in the face of possible governmental pressures, by resisting calls for information about your patrons at every level
3. Making your digital spaces safe for you patrons by limiting the data you collect, eliminating the data that you store, encrypting your communications at all levels and importantly insisting that your vendors do the same
4. Running programs that actively provide support for your at-risk patrons, whatever that looks like in your community
5. By being the voice of reason and compassion when dealing with your city or county government, and by modeling the same by advocating for those at risk
These things are vital and necessary. Especially now.

ok but that sign is SO COOL. It is illegal - fucking fuck - for a library to say it has been approached by the FBI. The workaround is that a library can say they have not been approached until, ya know, thatās a lie and they take down the sign. That is also actually why a lot of libraries no longer keep records of what a person checks out. Like they take broad stats but a lot of computer programs donāt even have the capacity to log what a person has checked out. You canāt disclose what you donāt have. tldr, librarians can be awesome when we stop doing this neutrality lie.
Why in the hell is that illegal? Thatās sketch af guys. Someone in the law making business is shade. Shaaaaaade.
the FBI used to maintain watch lists of books people took out, and librarians didnāt like it, so they told their patrons to work from a book in the library so they didnāt go on the watch list, or took the books out themselves, so the FBI got really pissed at them and got the lawmakers to make it illegal to warn them
but librarians are smart wily fuckers - the FBI didnāt stand a chance
The signs were originally made by librarian and all around good egg Jessamyn ānot the authorā West, who writes about it atĀ librarian.net. Ā
Librarians are quiet front-line fighters when it comes to authoritarianism. When I worked as a librarian, I had to take an oathĀ to protect and to serve the publicās access to knowledge and right to privacy.Ā
These guys are serious.
Librarians have always been quiet, steadfast heroes.
Proud daughter of former librarian
Indeed! My mom was a librarian, and she didnāt abide censorship or restriction of knowledge.
Please remember this information whenever you walk in and your librarian remembers what books you like to read, tapes/cds you like to listen to, and/or the movies you like to watch. The library I did voluntary work for didnāt have backlogs and they werenāt about to slap ālikes true crime booksā or ālikes medical text booksā or ālikes books on sailing knotsā in their system file for obvious reasons. (we didnāt keep paper notes either) They had to memorize what regulars liked, disliked, and so on.
