isn't it interesting how even even with a blatant misogynistic hate movement like the manosphere stuff the conversation is never framed around making the world safer for women. it's always 'how do we protect our young men and boys from radicalization'. the idea of like a need for a wider societal adoption of feminism or any kind of reckoning with other misogynistic social structure is just completely out of the picture

RNN | Massacre at US-aid flour point W. Rafah:

A new aid massacre: IOF drones firing at crowds near an aid distribution point near "Netzarim" in the central Gaza Strip.

An IOF drone also fired at a number of civilians near the entrance to Al-Bureij camp, and some bullets hit an ambulance.

Eyewitnesses confirmed:

"They told us to walk in one lane, and then they started shooting at us from all sides. They shot young men, women, and children, and at ambulances."

Ministry of Health:

The toll of the occupation's massacre of citizens gathered in the area designated for aid distribution, Al-Alam area, in Rafah Governorate, at dawn today. More than 200 cases have arrived at hospitals so far, including 31 martyrs and dozens with serious injuries.

Every martyr who arrived at hospitals had sustained only one gunshot wound to the head or chest, confirming the occupation's insistence on brutally killing civilians.

An extraordinary Acheulean handaxe knapped around a fossil shell circa 500,000-300,000 years ago.

The maker appears to have deliberately flaked around the shell to preserve and place it in a central position. As a result this handaxe has been described as an early example of artistic thought.

Good news for everyone who donated to the Ever Mile Charity Foundation....

Today, at Ever Mile Foundation, we distributed clothes to a large number of children in need of clothing. They have lost all their rights in life, so the least we can do for them is something that will make them happy. So I ask you to donate what you can to feed them and provide for their basic needs.

please help a disabled brazilian trans woman this pride

hey yall. ive been dealing with increasingly intense chronic pain and decreasing mobility on my legs for the past few months now (and with winter arriving in the southern hemisphere, the pain is only getting worse), which really hampers my ability to work most physical jobs nowadays, worsening our already bad financial situation. Besides bills, meds and food, I just really really really want to be able to afford to go to the doctor. Literally any help is welcome.

“You may not be hurting me intentionally, but even then I have a right to walk out of this relationship” has revolutionized my concept on human connection for real. Like someone doesn’t have to be an awful person for me to walk out of something that’s making me uncomfortable?? I can still decide enough is enough in spite of a person’s best intentions??? Mind blown

Class is your relationship with the means of production! Plenty of petit-bourgois don't have financial security and there are proletarians who are quite well off!

Class has NOTHING to do with how much money you make for fucks sake

The "drag queens are playful with gender and trans women are militant" line from Ru Paul has kind of forever shaped my nature with the discourse tbh
