Hey, are you aware of the fact that many people in Gaza have resorted to cutting pieces of their tents for scraps for pads? Which as you can imagine isn't the safest option but their only option in most cases. This also applies to those going through postpartum bleeding from giving birth. If you want to or can help:

The Pious Projects - they distribute feminine hygiene kits for people in Gaza! I suggest checking it out yourself but there's various amounts you can give from $5-$1,000 to help make and distribute these kits! They cost around $25 for each kit, but every bit helps. Make sure to share the link even if you can't currently help donate today!

I have a theory.

Werewolf transformation are painful. We've seen that with remus, the magic in the bloodstream is just enough to make the change happen but not enough to muffle the transformation itself it's painful. And we know it's not enough because other animal transformation like animagus don't seem to be painful even though it's physically a similar transformation and transfiguring other people doesn't seem to be painful either like in fourth year with Draco beening turned into a ferret.

So theory, what if someone else transfigures a werewolf into a werewolf before the transformation happens? Since they're already physically a werewolf at that point the transformation won't have to happen. It doesn't even have to be a werewolf it could be like a wolf or something physically similar to a werewolf. Then that at least eliminate the need to transform.

The morality of justice.

I just rewatched the Dr Who episode 'A town called Mercy' and I have some thoughts. This is going to be a bit of a rant so bear with me.

The first being how naive Amy was in what they should have done. Trying to save jex completely disregarding what he has done. He and a bunch of other scientists took people experimented on them, tortured them and turn them into weapons and then decommissioned them when the war was over. and yes you could say that was done in the time of war so the politics of peace don't happen, but decommission them after the war was over? That wasn't during war time that was at the end. They took those people, used them and then discard them.

Now here's the complicated bit, Jex knew what he had created the gunslinger was always going to come after him, he created him, he knows what he's capable of, so he must have known that no matter where he runs he's going to find him? The thing that stuns me is why they were there in the first place? because the tardis takes them where they need to go but the only thing that they could have done and should have done was to protect the town people from being collateral damage but the gunslinger getting justice had nothing to do with them. There is no guilt to be that the doctor needed to feel it had nothing to do with them and Amy deciding that the man had to escape despite doing what he done was just damning another town to have to deal with it.

Jex was seen as a war hero back home so there's no way that he was going to get it punished for what he done but the gunslinger wanted justice and I think that's fair considering what he done, now I don't want jex to be killed. I'd rather he be put into prison but that wasn't going to happen. So what was done at the end killing himself, was the best option because it stop the gunslinger there from having to take another life, another life that he shouldn't have had to take cause justice should have been brought.

It's just annoying me that Amy was arguing to save the man and I get it I really do, murder is bad, but to not offer any alternatives to how justice should be served? If you're going to be involved be involved all the way.

That's not to say that I didn't really like the episode I did but just annoys me whenever Amy debates this in the episode because she is not seeing the nuance of the situation, she's just saying that murder is bad and it is but she's not seeing the justice needs to happen.

Ok rant over 😅

Cake in a mug

I was thinking, I wonder if you could make a cake in a mug in one of those no waste store. Like ones where you take your own containers and there's flour and baking soda and stuff that could just take bits of in a mug traveling around the store then pay, go home put it in the microwave. Done!
