learning and studying the atlantic slave trade in depth should be a core part of american history education because the scale of it is mind blowing and the level of depravity and length of time it went on for are absolutely inexcusable. anyone who knows deeply how chattel slavery worked wouldn’t dare dismiss it as being “far in the past,” a horrific centuries-long practice like that needs to be remembered vividly and reminded to the ancestors of the perpetrators and beneficiaries OFTEN and EMPHATICALLY, anything less constitutes an erasure of history imo
hey not to advertise these twats (so don't look them up) but some absolute fucks in paris allegedly created a service where you can "rent air conditioning" (taking advantage of a climate apocalypse) and they make you pay 700€ a month for AC that costs 200€ for life.
[social media screenshot from Le Parisien, a french journal "renting instead of buying AC, the good deal proposed by [Don't-Look-Them-Up] mid-heatwave."]
[journal article from Le Parisien that reads: "renting instead of buying AC, the good deal proposed by [Don't-Look-Them-Up] mid-heatwave.
Since the start of the summer, acquiring an AC has been challenging. To answer to buyers who are faced with empty storefronts, [Don't-Look-Them-Up] has found a trick: the punctual rental of cooling units."]
ahem. and the review
[One-Star Review: Crooks that profit off of people's distress. He made me an offer for a 9000 BTu AC unit (valued at 280€) for 750€ per month. To avoid.]
they admitted in a video that they bought all the AC units DURING A BIG HEATWAVE all over Paris to empty all stocks, so that people would rely on them to get AC.
I’m so baffled by all these people coming out about never reading the odyssey… that wasn’t required reading for y’all? they had us reading that at 13/14 because it’s the most foundational text for all western literature
My name is Bilal. I am a 35-year-old father of four children 👨👧👦 from Gaza. I lived a simple life with my family. I worked hard every day to provide my children with a decent life and a better future.
But the war took everything from us… 💔
In a sudden bombing, my home was destroyed, and the place that once brought my family together became nothing but ruins. I lost several members of my family, and I, my wife, and my daughter were injured, leaving us with deep physical and emotional suffering.
After losing my home, my job, and my only source of income, I became unable to work because of my injuries. My responsibilities became greater than my ability to provide. Today, I live with my children in a small, worn-out tent ⛺ that does not protect us from the heat of the sun ☀️, the cold of winter ❄️, insects 🐜, or rats 🐭 that have become part of our daily struggle.
Even the little food we manage to get 🍞 does not remain safe for us, as the rats eat it, and my children cannot eat it afterward. We are living in extremely difficult conditions, trying only to survive through fear and hardship 💔.
The tent where we live is located near the yellow line, and we have nowhere else to go or a safe place to shelter. It breaks my heart to see my children suffering while I cannot provide what they need 😢.
I ask kind-hearted people ❤️ to stand with me and help us provide medical treatment for my wife and daughter 🏥, secure the basic needs for my children, and help us overcome these unbearable circumstances after losing everything.
Because of the war in Gaza, I lost everything — my home 🏚️ and my work in law, as I am a law graduate ⚖️. My wife and my daughter Malak suff
Please donate whatever you can to help us and stand by us during this difficult time 🙏. Your support can give my family new hope and help my children have a safer and more dignified life 🤍.
Please share our story with anyone who may be able to help 🤲.
Thank you to everyone who extends a helping hand and feels our pain ❤️.
hi, guys. one of my cats, gino, is showing signs and symptoms of kidney failure and really needs to go to the vet. i already lost a cat (kitty) last july 1st with the exact same condition and tbh i have not yet recovered emotionally and financially from that which is why i am asking for help to bring him to the vet asap and get him checked out. i want to do everything to not lose another one of my babies. 🥺
he would need at least PHP 11,000 (around $178) for the consultation, blood tests, meds, and supplements alone. any amount would greatly help gino. please help me help him. please reblog/share and whatever god you believe in, i hope you keep him in your prayers. thank you. 🫶🏻
paypal / ko-fi
recent photos of him below:
he lost so much weight and had become a picky eater and can't groom himself properly because of his recurring mouth sores. my mom helps him clean every morning and night. 😔😭
hi! i still need funding for gino's hopeful recovery. he's diagnosed with chronic kidney disease and currently, he is on IV fluids, renal care food diet, and supplements for the next days. i have already exhausted the donations sent to me and the rest of my paycheck for his vet bills and meds.
all donations and reblogs are appreciated as well as checking in on me and my cat. you all have been so nice and supportive that it makes all these bearable. 💝
kids were roleplaying with minecraft figurines and one of them had their figure go up to the other and say “i’m in love with you” and the other one replied “sword slash to the chest. and you’re on fire”
