So this video has been shared around Tumblr without context. For those who can’t be bothered to click through or watch, here’s the tea.

Some of your favorite Eurovision YouTubers and analysts have come together to protest the EBU’s decisions regarding Israel’s participation in Eurovision not by asking folks to boycott or petition performers to withdraw, but to donate to a fundraiser benefiting Doctors Without Borders USA and their efforts to assist the embattled residents of the Gaza Strip.
This fundraiser was put together by the couple running the Novympia channel, and all persons in this video have posted it to theirs, along with the link to the fundraiser. I have already donated via Alesia Michelle‘s channel, but you can pick your favorite among these YouTubers and donate there.
This, in my opinion, is a way better use of one’s time and resources than trying to threaten, bully and harass performers off of Eurovision through petitions, flyers with their faces on them and DMs. Even the Israeli one.
honestly really sexy of tumblr to keep follower numbers private. how many people are following me? you'll never know unless I tell you. maybe it's a million, or a thousand, or five, or maybe it's just you. maybe you're the only one here, all by yourself, unable to see if there's anyone standing next to you.
and you'd never know, because status here is based on opinion and not numbers; how popular you think someone is is a vibes-only calculation, and besides the chronological algorithms-optional feed, it's genuinely the best thing tumblr's ever done.
there IS actually a reason why seconds and minutes (and degrees for geometry) are in base 60 instead of base 10, and if you want to blame someone for that, blame the very specific way Babylonians counted with their fingers.
dont care if i sound corny or cliche but to love and be loved back and not having to second guess where u stand in someones heart is such a warm and safe feeling & everyone should have the luxury and pleasure of having it always
