platforming palestinian joy is just as important as sharing the suffering they're enduring during this genocide. despite continued displacement and bombardment, you cannot steal their joy and spirit. happy birthday to this sweet baby 🖤🇵🇸 may they grow up to see a free palestine
“Many people seem to think it foolish, even superstitious, to believe that the world could still change for the better. And it is true that in winter it is sometimes so bitingly cold that one is tempted to say, ‘What do I care if there is a summer; its warmth is no help to me now.’ Yes, evil often seems to surpass good. But then, in spite of us, and without our permission, there comes at last an end to the bitter frosts. One morning the wind turns, and there is a thaw. And so I must still have hope.”
hey so as some of you know ive been struggling with the threat of going homeless in a foreign country for almost two years now. the inflation here has gotten SO MUCH worse and my landlord almost doubled the rent. I need a way to get 250 USD extra for this months rent somehow and im so fucking scared and stressed. if you could help out by giving away even 5 dollars or reblogging. id fucking thank you forever and ever.
the good news is that this will probably be the last month i will be struggling and soon im going to have a stable house :D its just the last stretch.
also if you donate via ko-fi i will include your name as a supporter in my next youtube video which is going to be a video on nimona and my experience relating to it as a queer middle easterner.
Really weird how many of you worship Shane and Ryan so hard that you're like "They have a right to be paid for their art!! Stop being a brat and support them!!"
Like it's not about whether or not I want them to make money. Obviously I do. It's about how they:
teased this as a big exciting update
have been dropping serious amounts of cash on shows that no one asked for
hinted in the video that they are doing this so that they can continue to do the big expensive shit that no one asked for
keep reminding us that Steven drives us a Tesla for some godforsaken reason
are acting like everyone on earth can afford the subscription and that international exchange rates don't exist
skipped over a million other options like patreon shows and ad-supported independent streaming before jumping straight into thinking they deserve a streaming service
Like can you stop being parasocial for one second and realize how fucking terribly this has been handled. They are showing zero respect to their audience both in their decision and how it was presented. Can you not look at that and think "Huh, maybe my guys fucked this one up?"
not watcher fans organizing a way to gift a bunch of subscriptions to their new streaming platform to fans who can't/won't pay for it.......full fucking offense, can y'all go buy an esim for someone in Gaza
people are way too comfortable being dismissive of children and teenagers. if a toddler comes up to you and starts explaining skibidi toilet lore or if a 13 year old asks you if you want to hear about their mha ocs you have to listen with utmost sincerity or at least pretend to. this is the only way you will get into heaven.
