Support the Gainesville Free Grocery Store!
(Not to be confused with the Gainesville Free Store, which you should also support)
From their website:
We are an all-volunteer mutual aid food pantry and garden based in Gainesville, FL. We support our communities’ right to healthy and nutritious food by distributing free food through delivery and in-person services, and by growing some of the food ourselves! We give out food for free to people dealing with food insecurity, no questions asked. We deliver food to folks who can’t leave their homes due to lack of transportation or disability. We grow veggies at the McRorie Community Garden! All produce is distributed through our pantries.
Hi! The city of Gainesville, Florida is one of the worst places in America to be homeless, but the good news is that it's also in the middle of an apocalyptic housing crisis. Large swaths of the city, including its remaining Black neighborhoods, are food deserts. The Gainesville Free Grocery Store distributes free food to the hungry and needy on the 2nd Tuesday of each month at the Civic Media Center at 433 South Main Street downtown, and they help a lot of people and are saving lives. They could use support!

Donating Food
As of November 2025, we can accept food donations at Working Food (219 NW 10th Ave. Gainesville, FL) on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 10a-2p. If you have a larger donation you’d like to make but cannot come during those times, please email us to coordinate an alternate drop-off time.
You can also donate food on the same day as our food pantries at the Civic Media Center (433 S. Main St.) as early as 12 pm. On good weather days, you can drop off food in the courtyard, but please text us if you’ve left food so that we know and can bring it inside.
Guidelines for what we can and prefer to accept are as follows:
Packaged food – Must be unopened and unexpired
Canned proteins (beans, tuna, chicken)
Grains (rice, pasta, flour, cornmeal)
Shelf-stable milks
Oils (vegetable, olive, etc.)
Snacks (crackers, gummies, applesauce)
Ground coffee
Baby food
We always appreciate gluten-free products and vegan substitutes!
Fruits and vegetables
Must not be moldy or severely damaged
We welcome farm or garden-fresh vegetables!
Eggs

Prepared food
We cannot accept fresh/homemade prepared food
If you’d like to run a food drive for us, email, Instagram DM, or call us!
Giving Money
Recurring donations help us create stability for people experiencing food insecurity. Recurring donations help us transform from charity and towards solidarity. $10 pays for a week of groceries for 5 families. $50 pays for a little more than a month for the same 5 families.
The easiest way to donate money is through our PayPal, Venmo, or CashApp.

Also reblog this post a lot! I'll try to remember to do a fresh reblog with times and dates when each event is announced, so don't forget to check the notes :)
Hey. Heyhey. Do me a favor real quick.
If you don't already know you have issues doing so, squat down real quick. Bend your knees all the way and touch the floor. Just make sure you can do it. Okay? For me? And then stand up all the way and make sure you can balance on one foot.
Like. You don't need to blow it into some huge thing. Just. Make sure all your bits and peices still work the way you think they do.
Can you turn your head to look behind you without twisting your shoulders? What about standing on your toes? If you sit down on the floor can you get back up without using your hands?
If there was ever a tumblr post worth sending to your mom, it's this one.
Just saying, bodies are a use it or lose it kinda thing.
okay so every time I see this post crop back up in queues and notifications I end up thinking about it. Because I made the post and even I'm still doing the thing where I read the post about maintaining range of motion in my delicate meatsuit and I nod and hmm and think yeah that's a good idea and then dont move from where I'm curled up shrimp style staring at the nightmare rectangle.
So like. Thinking real hard about moving doesn't count as moving. Major bummer. Anyways. Joints.
now remember, "kink" is to "fetish" as "poisonous" is to "venomous"
*hands you a knife*
you know what to do. we're all counting on you.

THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK (1980) Dir. Irvin Kershner
The sooner you start, the sooner you'll be done with it and the sooner you can stop thinking about it. Go on, up you get, it won't be as bad as you think.
You won't want to do it later either. You might as well just do it now. Even if you don't finish it all, anything you manage to get done now is something you don't have to do later (when you still won't want to do it)
Oohhh the federal government wants to know my gender and orientation sooooo badly
Bitter sarcasm aside, I'm gonna go ahead and risk sounding a little paranoid here:
I want to show people what food/financial assistance forms have been asking since trump was elected. They've refined the questions now -at the beginning of 2025 the first question was "Do you use any pronouns?"[sic]- and I feel like that's worse, since at the beginning at least it let you know immediately who was asking and why. The way it sounds friendly and supportive now is even more sinister.
I cannot stress enough that these questions were not asked before 2025. The first time I renewed since they went into effect was over the phone, so I was able to ask point blank why they needed to know, and was told that it was now required by the government -so no, this isn't just a liberal state trying to be more inclusive. There isn't and never was a legitimate need to know this information in order to provide benefits. This is solely to keep track of queer people. I'd also like to point out that they are required to list your assigned sex, and you cannot edit that field. So even if I listed myself as boy/man without stating that I'm trans, it would out me, and that's the intention. There's also a huge detailed list of race and ethnicity options now that really do everything to try to get hyper specific answers out of you, including if you're jewish and what kind (I'd recommend not answering any of that either, btw)
They also waited until the forms were fully filled out and being submitted before informing me (in a footnote) that sexual orientation is protected on a state level but not federal. Not just gender identity, orientation.
The absolute mildest ramifications of collecting this data could be the administration using it to claim that queer people are disproportionately draining government resources and add more fuel to our persecution. The fine print states that this info can all be requested and accessed by various government agencies for several purposes including making arrests. I'm begging all of you to refuse to answer any demographic questions you can on forms like this, no matter how tempting or validating it seems to have such detailed options to acknowledge your identity, because it is purely a trap. The government DOES NOT need to know how you identify, and there is no plausible benefit to telling them.
By the way if you aren't queer or nonwhite at all, it's still in all of our best interests if you refuse to answer these questions as well. If only vulnerable minorities refuse to identify themselves, then it's easy to assume that "Don't want to answer" means queer/nonwhite, and that helps expose us.
i’ve started writing gay star wars fanfic after four years of writing NOTHING, and i don’t care if i don’t finish any projects or post any fics, i’m writing again and i’m very happy about it
[ID: a digital drawing of many different animals and plants in a simple style in grey, including opossum, owl, snake, seal, panther, chicken, monkey, bat, turtle, squid, scorpion, frog, penguin, jellyfish, and more. they surround the words "every other being is as real as i am" in light blue capital letters. end.]
Why am I me and not someone else? Does everything have its own "me"? Living beings see from only their own perspective, but we can observe our fellow beings and imagine - what is it like to exist as a cat or an oak tree? They're all out there having their own experience of existence that I could never come close to understanding with human senses. But does that mean those experiences are less important than mine? Maybe from my own perspective, presumably not from theirs.
Anyway, that line of thinking results in drawings like this one - an obvious truth that we can perhaps forget at times when our empathy fails. How many different living things can you identify in this drawing? :)
say what you will about jack rackham but the man knew how to serve cunt. I don’t just mean his dandy little outfits, either. or the fact that he remained best friends with his gay ex. or the fact that he imprinted on a het beefcafe like a duckling and spent much of his life navigating the messy waters of “do i want to be him or do i want to be with him?”. I mean that Jack Rackham got arrested by a homicidal colonist, was facing imprisonment (if not outright execution), and literally his first instinct was to read woodes rogers for filth over his memoir. my guy really sat down in his office, took a gulp of his wine, and said: “you’re shit, you look like shit, your self-importance is shit, and your book was a snore. your memoir is literally in my dnf pile. it sucked ass.” every time i watch black sails i mourn the fact that jack rackham didn’t live to see the invention of poppers.
anon I want you to know that I am always thinking about this
i am being soooo normal about them
when a man is so beautiful he pulls you out of a years-long drawing slump 🙏
So difficult to withhold the eyeroll when people say things like, "My body was designed for this" wrt childbirth or whatever, because even if I accept the premise that our bodies were designed, I have to imagine mine was designed with the most basic function of breathing in mind, and yet I had childhood asthma and would have died without intervention so idk if I'm trusting my "designer" with something as physically traumatic and historically deadly as childbirth
