My goal and dream and deepest desire is for every black child and every black adult to know the safety and security and hope and love we all should have been offered from birth. And even if it came late to you, I hope you know that you are still worthy of it.

So proud of everyone who has left abusive, toxic, or unhealthy relationships. It’s not easy to do at all, and if you did that, you should feel so proud of yourself, instead of blaming yourself for how long it took you to. It’s an incredibly strong, brave and resilient thing to do.

walked by a family in one of the exhibits and heard a child ask their adults to pet Little Bird and one of the adults said “you can’t, that dog’s working.” and the child sounded totally baffled and they said “for who?!”

love the child’s point of view in which they don’t know what a service animal is or that i’m her handler so they assumed my dog could possibly be actually employed and by someone who isn’t present. like maybe i’m just her coworker.

genuine question — how is donating money going to help Palestinians if no food is going in? What is the money for?

Medicine, water, supplies, food, fuel (much of it black market being upsold at egregious prices) — these all cost money and pretty much all Palestinians in Gaza have no source of income now. It’s drops in the bucket compared to ending the siege and occupation but it’s one way to do at least something small to help. Others are in need of money to evacuate when the border opens again (which hopefully is asap…), tuition and supplies for school to continue studies despite it all. Another fund is focused on trying to rebuild farmlands in Gaza to get food again that way.

I can’t tell anyone what to do with their money but I don’t think this mindset of “well nothings going in so we can’t help” is helpful for people on the ground who are the ones saying that donations can and do help them survive.

I never know what to post anymore but I love you guys and tumblr is a nice place to hang out sometimes. Just glad to be here occasionally and also trying to improve my irl life.

POTS + summer just really really sucks and I feel like I could sleep all the time with how fast my fatigue piles up.

Collecting books is great until you have to move all of them at once and realize that every one of the little bastards weighs about as much as a brick and collectively have the mass of a neutron star

inaction is also an action and a non-decision is also a decision. there’s no completely stable bubble world where you can choose not to make a decision at all. all this to say. you might as well go ahead and do the shit you want to do because the time passes anyway. etc.
