I also get plenty of stories just from following a lot of folks who post about good news on Bluesky and Tumblr. Or I stumble upon stories out in the wild since over my years of running this blog I've become pretty primed to look out for good news stories.
Thanks for giving me a good excuse to post my list in one place!
Since people on this website continue to argue about whether the Palestinians on here asking for donations and shares are "scammers" or not, I'd like to share another way you can find fundraisers from Gaza to support.
Find vetted fundraisers for Gaza here
"Gaza Funds is a project that connects people to crowdfunding campaigns for individuals and families from Gaza. Each time the page is reloaded, a different campaign appears. While the rotation is randomized, campaigns for the sick/injured and campaigns close to meeting their goals are prioritized. We never want any of these campaigns to go stagnant, so we make sure to also prioritize fundraisers that haven't had a donation in a while. As existing fundraisers meet their goals, they will be replaced with other fundraisers that need your help.
We are a global team of (mostly) Arab and Palestinian engineers, students, writers, and academics working to help get exposure and traction to fundraisers created for people in Gaza, Palestine. We are not an organization or a charity. We do not create fundraisers and we do not collect money on behalf of them. Our work on this project is completely voluntary. We created this site as a way to give others quick access to these fundraisers for informational purposes only.
This website is for informational purposes only. We are not affiliated with the fundraisers, their beneficiaries or the campaign websites. We assume no liability or responsibility for any activity related to the fundraisers listed on this website or to the policies and procedures of the fundraiser websites that host them." x
It's as simple as going to the website, donating to the spotlight campaign, or choosing on of the 700+ families to support via their verified fundraisers. This is a really good initiative, please spread the word.

Did The Description Match? 👇
No, the description did not match. Every verifiable piece of documentation we possess that is public record affirms that it was not a match, despite the continuing media lie and lies from prosecutors. Here are two links where I have proven such.
-> Lauren Weis Is Lying
-> It Was Not A Match!
Who Is Rodney Allen? 👇
-> 90’s Google Archive posts of Rodney Allen admitting to framing Michael Jackson + alleged letters he wrote

Did The Jury Flip? 👇
No, 10 out of the original 12 that deliberated maintain a Not Guilty verdict, as well as 8 alternates who did not deliberate but sat in on the entire trial. 2 jurors flipped 2 months after the verdict, contradicting their past interviews and original statements made to the media following the verdict. Money was an incentive. I provided sources/evidence in an answered ask.
-> The Jury Did Not Flip!
Did Jackson Possess Child Porn? 👇
Absolutely not! Possession of child pornography is a felony crime, which would have resulted in him being charged with possession, not to mention he would have been convicted. What Michael Jackson did own was art photography books, which I have made numerous at length posts explaining.

Did Jackson Have BDSM Porn? 👇
No, Jackson did not have BDSM/Torture porn. This was a lie started in 2016 by tabloids like Radar Online, who edited raid documents and photoshopped books to make it appear as though Jackson owned material he was never written to possess in any search warrant or seizure from 03-05.
Sit down for this one, peeps! A previous source reached back out to me earlier today and dropped THIS gem in my DMs! Steph Bullock's birthday message and pic collage for her boyfriend, Sam Heughan! Squeeeeee! 💘
My hands are shaking writing this, omg, you guys!!!!!
First of all, how sweet is her birthday message to Sam?! ❤️
Second of all, these pics! OMG! SO romantic. Look at what Sam is like when he is IN LOVE. They are a beautiful couple. They look amazing together and so happy. 💘💕💓
Third of all, it's so heartwarming that Sam has fully integrated Steph's daughter into his life. Imagine how many other trips the 3 of them have taken together that we don't even know about. And Sam and Steph definitely see each other as much as possible, like a couple truly in love. (BTW, for now I'm still choosing to not post Steph's daughter's name publicly, even though a lot of people know it. So, please don't mention it in your comments or I'll have to delete your comments. Thanks.)
Fourth of all, the center pic PROVES that the cell phone lockscreen pic Sam has IS of him and Steph. Not him and Cait hahaha like shippers said. 😍
Anyhoooo, getting this made my whole year, I think! 🤗
You guys, can you believe it?!?! I'm so thrilled Sam and Steph found each other! They both deserve happiness and love.
For the haters: if you can SEE how happy and in love Sam and Steph are, how happy the little girl is to be with Sam, and still sh*t on it, then what is wrong with you?! Enough. Be happy for them or go find a different hate hobby.
For the rest of us, the lovers, say it with me--SQUEEEEEE!!!!!
PS. Any negative comments will be deleted and you will be immediately blocked.
Before I pass out (it’s 2am :/), best moments from Queen II Remix Disc 2
As for the captions, Roger is red, Brian is blue, Freddie is white, and John (who speaks this time!) is orange. Black with white border is either Roy or I couldn’t tell who was speaking.
This whole disc was delightful. But be advised of strong language
