I can’t speak from experience but
1: know that no matter what anyone says, the rules that dictate whether or not an action is defined as platonic or romantic are bullshit and you can do whatever the fuck you want forever
2: be proud
3: catch up on that show you always wanted to watch I promise it’s good
Any tips on being gay?
1: don’t be straight
2: flirt with your partner occasionally
3: know how to lie

Fundraiser masterpost
This is a masterpost for the evacuation fundraisers I've vetted so far, a few other fundraisers I find trustworthy but have not been able to vet (inability to communicate with the organizer), and a few semi-completed fundraisers or fundraisers for a different purpose (like house rebuilding, or aid distribution). The numbers next to the names have no significance beyond ease of navigation for me for when I check their progress in the future. You should look at the disclaimers instead and focus on those. Occasionally I will update these with new info, including new fundraisers, and the amount of cash that's been raised. Check in regularly on the original post when you see it being reblogged. In all likelihood once its reached you it's already outdated. Also please don't overlook the Sustainable Aid options near the bottom! The brain drain is already creating problems but having another way of keeping or creating new knowledge and key members of a functioning society is important.

Okay maybe I’m going a little bit off my rocker but did anyone, circa late 2019-early 2020, see a post that talked about some guy who was threatening to kill all ugly people in a certain area, and to watch out for him, and then the very same guy that that post was talking about made a blog or had a blog and just. Started talking to people? My first online friend would get anonymous messages that were supposedly from him talking about why he wanted to kill all ugly peoples and what not. Did anyone see this. Did anyone even HEAR of this guy. Hello

A little advice from someone studying extremist groups: if you’re in a social media environment where the daily ubiquitous message is that you have no hope of any kind of future and you can’t possibly achieve anything without a violent overthrow of society, you’re being radicalized, and not in the good way.

award-winning palestinian children's illustrator baraa awoor writes:
Tumblr media
"what use is it to be an illustrator of children's books when the world has sentenced the children of your country to the death penalty, to vanish, to genocide?"
some of baraa's illustrations:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
this is an illustration for youssef, whose mother is remembered running desperately into the hospital asking if anyone had seen a "small white boy with beautiful curly hair, his name is youssef," a description which was remembered by millions when she finally identified his body:
Tumblr media
this illustration is for young omar, who was hugging his little brother and teaching him how to repeat the shahada after him (a prayer spoken by muslims before their death) as he lay on his hospital bed:
Tumblr media
"we want a new year that doesn't kill us or our children, we want it a year without blood, without screaming, without pain, we want a new attempt to get our lives back, or something that resembled our life, even if life is a lie we still cling to it, return life to us—a new year's card unlike any other year:"

"Today marks one year since the death of the People’s Bubbie Shatzi Weisberger. Before she passed, she said, “I’ll fight like hell for a free Palestine until the day I die. Then I’ll keep fighting. Your queer ancestor is with you.”
If you’ve been rising up in solidarity with Palestine these past two months, your queer ancestor is indeed with you, along with countless other antizionist Jewish ancestors. For many, family and community rifts may be especially painful right now. No matter what, you are not alone. Remember that you have a long lineage of elders and ancestors at your back.
Last night, Israel resumed its brutal bombing of Gaza and has already killed dozens of people. Shatzi would encourage all of us to do everything we can right now for a permanent, lasting ceasefire. To mourn the dead and fight like hell for the living.
Shatzi died on World AIDS Day, which was b’sheret ("destined”) because in addition to being a lifelong organizer, she was a nurse for 47 years who cared for people living and dying with AIDS.
From ACT UP’s organizing to end AIDS to the movement for Palestinian freedom, we honor the ancestors and movements who made us possible."
We will be forever grateful to the ancestors who paved the path before us. May their memories fuel us to work towards freedom for all people — no exceptions."

on december 9th, there is a wisconsin all out for palestine rally in madison. i really encourage anyone who is in this state and has the means to travel to madison to show up for this especially as more people are showing "fatigue" for the palestinian cause and social media posts dwindle.
if you're in milwaukee, the local chapter of JVP is arranging transportation help if you dont have a car and the badger bus is also a relatively inexpensive and convenient option, it runs multiple times per day and will take you about 30 mins walking or a quick uber trip to the capital if you select the 'campus and lake' stop.
p.s. i know madison in general is pretty milquetoast + white liberal-y, but the activism and rallies for palestine specifically lately have been extremely well organized, meaningful, actually leftist and abolitionist, calling for more than a ceasefire, and led by/centered palestinian-americans & other SWANA organizers.

so we have Punisher, a weirdly smart orange long haired tabby with social anxiety who was likely the runt of his and his brother’s litter, and his brother, Galaxy, a fucking beast of a long haired tuxedo who is the sweetest thing alive but roughhouses like a football player.
let’s set the scene: the two of them are in the living room, likely bored out of their minds.
step one: Galaxy comes over to Punisher, and like any good big brother would do, he starts grooming his fur.
step two: Punisher, who only got reintroduced to Galaxy like 3 months ago and has lived his entire life being the Big Boss Cat Of The House, does not stand for this and smacks his brother in the face within 15 seconds of Galaxy trying to groom his fur.
step three: Galaxy is like “what the fuck dude” and snaps at Punisher’s paws a bit as retribution, then continues to groom his fur while Punisher’s momentarily distracted.
step four: Punisher’s tail starts swishing. Galaxy is completely unbothered. Punisher starts pushing away Galaxy with his hind legs so Galaxy just snaps at his back feet, and tries to get back to what he was doing. step five: Punisher takes this as assault, and actively tries to fight Galaxy. This is a mistake. He has made this mistake about 100 times by now. Galaxy is much bigger than Punisher, and much stronger than him as well, and every single time, Galaxy ends up tackling Punisher to the floor, and continues to aggressively try and clean his fur. The only time Punisher gets out of this is when Galaxy walks away, or he manages to escape and runs under my bed and stake out while Galaxy sits in the living room. Again. Completely unbothered.
step six: alternatively, when Galaxy walks away, Punisher’s still pissed at him and smacks him. Galaxy does nothing. Doesn’t even care.
My cats sibling dynamics are the same as human sibling dynamics and I don’t know how to feel about this
