your salad is looking a little balanced there dude - your thoughtful selection of ingredients ensures no one flavour overpowers. fortunately i have some balsamic syrup right here,

i need a polycule of tall skinny white guys preferably like around 10 of them so i can dress them up in nice outfits and give them cute little red ribbon chokers. (hiding a bowling ball behind my back) For no real reason

I was fast graceful and gorgeous at the airport like a leopard

When gas disappears… we invent fire.

In Gaza, where war stole everything from us — even our gas cylinders — we refused to freeze or give up.

With nothing but scrap metal, old car oil, and computer fans, people here built handmade burners to cook, boil water, and survive.

We turned trash into life. We turned despair into invention. This is how we fight for existence every single day.

We don't just survive — we create.🔥🛠️💔

Reblog. Raise awareness. Let the world see our resilience.

As for me… I’m Kareman, a mother in Gaza.

I’m doing my best to protect and care for my son, Hammoud, in the middle of this war.

Thanks to a kind friend’s donation, I was able to bring a little light into my child’s life — food, warmth, and a smile.

The photo below is my son smiling next to the food we managed to buy.

That smile is a rare treasure in the middle of fear, displacement, and hunger.😭🫶❤️

If you’re reading this, please… don’t let this be the last smile I see on his face.🙏

things that happened to me when i was a woman in STEM:

an advisor humiliated me in front of an entire lab group because of a call I made in his place when he wouldn't reply to my e-mails for months

he later delegated part of my master's thesis work to a 19-year old male undergrad without my approval

a male scientist at a NASA conference looked me up and down and asked when i was graduating and if i was open to a job at his company. right before inquiring what my ethnicity was because i "looked exotic"

a random male member of the public began talking over me and my female advisor, an oceanographer with a pHD and decades of experience, saying he knew more about oceanography than us

things that have happened to me since becoming a man in STEM:

being asked consistently for advice on projects despite being completely new to a position

male colleagues approaching me to drop candid information regarding our partners / higher ups that I was not privy to before

lenience toward my work in a way I haven't experienced before. incredible understanding when I need to take time off to care for my family.

conference rooms go silent when I start talking. no side chatter. I get a baseline level of attention and focus from people that's very unfamiliar and genuinely difficult for me to wrap my head around.

like. yes some PI's will still be assholes regardless of the gender of their subordinates but, I've lived this transition. misogyny in STEM is killing women's careers, and trans men can and do experience male privilege.

this tweet is new but it is actually a fundamental text for me

[vaindumbass]

I don’t know about anyone else, but I, as a trans woman, do not know what it is to be a man. I know what it’s like to be surrounded by men, to be picked apart by them, to have masculinity enforced on me and to have my femininity degraded. I know what it’s like to be targeted for punishment, physically and sexually, for my femininity, for a girlhood the boys and men could see in me, to be queerbashed, to have my head slammed into hard surfaces, to have my genitals fondled, to be injured in all kinds of small and repetitive ways with things like pens, compasses, and so on.

I know what it’s like to be assumed to be a man, and to be abused because I am not. I know what it’s like to be separated from my female friends as a young child because my status as a ‘boy’ meant that I needed to be placed with the other boys, the ones who degraded me and hurt me. I know what it’s like to be beaten and burned. I know what it’s like to have teachers make an example of me because I cannot conform. I know what it’s like to be made afraid of being around other people, because people means abuse.

But I don’t know what it is to be a man. Even after everything they tried, I wasn’t one.

‼️🚨Urgent appeal, very important🚨‼️

‼️We miraculously survived‼️

After losing our beautiful home and being displaced, we tried to adapt to a small tent to protect us from the winter cold and rain... We have been in the dilapidated tents for a year now, a year in the cold... No one feels what we feel, and after everything we lose our tent that we tried to adapt to for a year after the bombing of our neighborhood and the falling of stones on us, throwing our tent to the ground and making it unfit for habitation.😔😭

My sincere request to help us so that we can buy a new tent to protect us from the cold winter. The price of the tent is 500$ and the cost of the items we lost is $250.😔

Every donation will make a difference to us in buying it. Protect a family from the cold. Just donate and share the post so that everyone can help us. 🙏🙏😭💔😔🙏

it's genuinely crazy that free the nipple died

Cardinal singing outside my window just fucked up his call and had to start over. Lmao

[vaindumbass]

ur tellin me a strawberry pounded this cake

[vaindumbass]

can we please please please learn to differentiate between things that are good but devalued because of their association with women (caring for children, being compassionate), things that are neutral but seen negatively because of their association with women (the colour pink, having long hair), and things that are bad but associated with women because of misogyny (being materialistic, being stupid) because otherwise we’re gonna keep getting takes like “being gender nonconforming is anti feminist” and “not studying for your classes is feminist”

[vaindumbass]

has anyone figured out how to be a real person yet

I get no notes because as soon as someone finishes reading my post they are compelled to put down their phone and experience the wonders of the world around them with fresh eyes
