oh my god, i'm turkish and seeing foreigners reblogging this honestly brought me to tears.
since the post above, three more people have died and thousands of more homes have burned down, but thankfully some of the fires have been extinguished. but this doesn't mean the fight is over.
these photos were taken in the province of Antalya, one of our biggest tourism centers. for decades, people have been setting entire forests on fire in touristic places to make room for their huge, 5-star hotels and resorts. everyone knows this. the government knows this.
for anyone that doesn't know, our government is as corrupt as it gets (i'm not gonna go into details, or we'd be here all day and i'd probably get arrested). they're trying to cover up these news with the resignation of the minister of education. what's more, so far, the only fire-extinguishing planes we have were sent to us by Russia. not our own government.
they don't care for us.
our only hope is you. even a single Euro/Dollar you donate would make a difference.
please. we need you.

āPerhaps love is to give oneās own solitude to others? For it is the very last thing we have to offer.ā

When I was younger, I was absolutely terrified of Coraline- to the point where I would actually shake and cry when my family would put it on. Now, I can recite most of it by heart, and it never fails to make me feel better when Iāve had a bad day. Thank you for writing such a validating story- it has helped me through a lot, and Iām so glad I grew to love it.
Also, I was once in an English class where we watched Beowulf, and when your name flashed in the credits I- out loud- went āOh my god! Neil Gaiman?!?!ā and my class was very confused, as they had never heard me speak before. Thank you for inadvertently ruining my silent/mysterious facade. (I then had to explain who you were to my teacher, and knowing that Iām a bigger nerd than at least one English teacher helps me sleep at night.)
This is a rollercoaster of a message, but basically thanks for using your talent to inspire other humans, and just be a part of peopleās lives every day- including mine!
Honestly, I think someone who only speaks once to say "Neil Gaiman" is even more mysterious than someone who never talks at all.
You are so welcome.

Stuff kids on tumblr better relearn
1. You are responsible for your own media experience.Ā
2. There is such a thing as a healthy level of avoidance towards topics that make you feel unwell or even (in a real-life clinical definition of the term) trigger you - but you are the one to actively take care of what you view.
3. Avoiding does not mean policing others.
4. You have no right to tell artists to censor themselves - you may criticize what others do, you may dislike it, thatās fine - but actively asking for censorship when you could easily unfollow or block a person just makes you look incompetent in your use of the internet.
5. Do not give people on tumblr or /any/ website the responsibility for your emotional well-being. Because these people do not even know you so no, you have no right to ask them to take care of you.
6. Content creators are not your parents and owe you nothing, not even a breakdown on why their content isnāt problematic. You donāt get to demand a dissertation denouncing any and everything unhealthy in a piece you donāt like. Move on.
7. Tagging is a nicety but not an obligation. You can message people, politely, and ask them to tag things, and many people will, but understand that itās their blog and they arenāt obliged to say yes. Unfollow and block when you need to. Circling back to number 1, you are responsible for curating your own experience.
8. Donāt be a jerk. Remember at the end of the day, there are actual living, breathing people behind each screen name. Donāt say anything you wouldnāt say to someoneās face in real life.Ā
I cannot stress enough how important it is to remember this.

a realization that changed my life was that thereās absolutely nothing wrong with doing thingsĀ āthe lazy wayā. Like honestly, buy frozen precooked food, have canned soup, use instant ramen, use pasta sauce out of a jar. buy the as seen on tv gadget that makes your life easier, and fold your clothes the way you want. thereās no reason to struggle and live up to other peopleās standard of what qualifies asĀ āthe right wayā. screw em and get by the way you need to.
Things with no gay/queer rep can be progressive and groundbreaking actually and need to be part of the discussion of representation in media
Like,,,,
A show about an interracial disabled couple (thatās written well) is just as progressive as a show about two gay characters
A show with multiple well written POC characters, especially in leading roles, is progressive and should be part of the discussion
Representation has never only meant queer rep.
And I hate that so many of POC and disabled people see that shows and books that represent them, not get included or acknowledge in the discussion about representation.
Just because something doesnāt represent you, doesnāt mean itās not representing someone else.
Yes queer rep is good, of course it is (Iām neither cis nor het) but I can not begin to understand how so many of you will just,,,ignore shows that represent POC and/or disabled people in a well written and positive way because itās not what you are. Or tell us that when we mention them as good examples of rep that itās not really representation.
The world exist outside of you and your experience.

one of the weirdest things about tinhat shipping or theorising on a celebrity's sexuality is that it's so blatantly self-serving. like even if you had 100% incontrovertible proof that someone was secretly gay, by posting your theories you're obviously not helping them?? like you're literally achieving nothing but making someone uncomfortable and potentially trying to out someone who is closeted?? regardless of whether you're right there is literally no benefit to it???
Itās tough to get out of bed; I know that myself. You can lie there for an hour and a half without thinking anything, just worrying about what the day holds and knowing that you wonāt be able to deal with it.
