my corner store guy is a 50 year old man who's my best friend in the world and recently he was like "you're too pretty to be single I have some nephews you should meet. very handsome!" and I was like "a niece might be more up my alley" and he just got more excited and said "ah even better! I was overselling my nephews but my nieces are very beautiful"
I will not forgive anyone who sees this post and ignores us.
I am writing these words with tears streaming down my face. I can no longer bear this pain. My wife is suffering from a severe deficiency in vitamins, especially vitamin D, and she urgently needs surgery to save her life. Her body is growing weaker day by day, malnutrition is stealing her strength, and I stand helpless watching her suffer.
All I wish for is to see her alive and healthy. Please help us provide healthy food, her medications, and fund the surgery that could save her life.
Even if you cannot donate, please share this post. Every support, every word, could be the difference between her life and death.
there will be a lot of posts soon from people sharing how much they achieved in 2025. but in case someone needs to hear this, it's okay if the only thing you did this year was just get through it.
My name is Abdullah Al-Qassab, I’m 27 years old, and I am writing this message with trembling hands and an empty stomach — from Gaza.
Before the war, I had a small travel agency something I built with love, effort, and hope.I dreamed of a simple life… a dignified life.
But the war didn’t just destroy my home and business —it shattered my ability to dream.
Today, I’m not asking for dreams.I’m asking for bread. For water. For life I now live with my family in the open — no walls, no roof, just the cold ground beneath us.
We are in a catastrophic famine.
We go days without food.
We faint in the street from hunger.
Our bodies are giving up.
And still… the world remains silent.
My mother has a heart condition — she needs medicine and special food.
Now she lies in pain, her chest aching, and I have nothing to give her. My grandmother has high blood pressure — worsened by hunger and cold nights.
Her body is shrinking before my eyes.
And me😞?
I’ve collapsed more than once from weakness. From not eating.But I stand up again… because they need me.
What do you call this life?
Sleeping on the dirt… watching your family starve… praying your heart doesn’t stop before help arrives? This is not a life. This is a slow death. To anyone reading this Please… don’t turn away from me.
Help me buy food before we collapse again. Help me get medicine before my mother’s heart gives out.
Help me bring even one moment of comfort to my grandmother before it’s too late.
I’m not asking for luxury.
I’m not asking for comfort.
> I’m begging for survival.
Even the smallest act of kindness could mean the world to us. Please… save us from this hunger.

Some ya’ll who are younger need to google Frank Serpico and read about his time in the NYPD and what the cops did to him and attempted to do to him up until the late 90′s. He literally had to go into hiding in Italy and Switzerland and multiple times people tried to kill him. He only came back to America after the mafia (who hated the NYPD a lot, obviously) said “you’re under our protection.”
👆Really really good article by the way. Feels like a good piece to show to folks you know who are still on the fence about things like police or prison abolition. Plus the pseudonym the author uses is hysterical, and he's really quite a good writer.
extremely good article, please read it. at the very least read the "how to be a bastard" section, it outlines a lot of the ways cops will try to trick you
Richard Papen is truly god's strongest soldier because imagine being in love with every single member of your friend group and then learning said friends regularly host hedonistic rituals in which they all sleep together and to which you alone are not invited
What to put on punk patches when you have no ideas!
"1312"
"Dead men don't rape"
"Trans rights"
"Nazi punks fuck off"
"Someone on tumblr told me to write this"
okay now that i've got your attention listen to me, what you're gonna do is you take your little phone, camera or notebook and you go outside and you look at the graffiti in your city and you look at all the stickers that are on lamp posts, and you're gonna photograph or write down the ones that evoke the most emotions - both positive and negative. You will then go home and look at the photos and either copy the local slogans you agree with or come up with counters to the things that made you uncomfortable or mad. You don't need five vauge anti-police patches when you can have some specific to your area and community. If you live in Poland you don't nees an "ACAB" patch, what you're looking for is "HWDP". It is instantly apparent to scene regulars if someone is an internet punk or an irl scene member just based on what wording if the same sentiment they have on them.
Look at photos of people at protests you stand for (or if you can and there's one happening soon - attend it). What's written on their banners? What slogans are short yet succinct and to the point? What's catchy? Can you make it shorter? Can you add a pictogram to visualise it? What's the sentiment? How would you carry the same meaning in your style of speaking?
Open spotify and set your location as the nearest decently sized city (or google, but google doesn't have your taste profile in mind when showing you results). See what alternative bands play there soon. Give them a listen, if you enjoy their music and can afford to, go to the concerts. While at the venue try to look for other event posters - it could just be a music spot that holds all kinds of events but it could be an actual alternative venue. Is it a bar? Maybe you can frequent it and make friends with other local scene members. Maybe you can learn what your local community issues are from them. If you can't afford to go or are underage, listen to the songs while following the lyrics. Is there a line that hits hard? A title that's a banger? An album that's super cool and just so happens to have a simple cover? Here are your next patch ideas.
If you would like to break out of the bubble of online punkism into the actual scene you gotta log off and go into the real world. Punk is about breaking from the heard and non-conformism, and by copying every cool patch you see on pinterest or tumblr you are accidentally outing yourself as someone who doesn't have their own voice. Try to find it, I bet it has some unique things to say and I wanna hear what! It should be at conversation with things happening in your immidiate community. If you live in Bosnia you won't do much to defund the LLPD, but you can make change in the enviroment you actually live in.
Punks not about repeating the same sentiments like a broken record, it's about embodying them. And I mean actually embodying not just in fantasies of heroically beating down rapists. It's calling out weird behaviour of your friend's partner or helping a survivour of abuse get safe shelter so she can report her brutal husband without fear. It's donating that 2.5,- that you saved buying soda on sale to a local lifeline. It's making life safer and better for the people in your community before you focus on oversees problems.
