"You don't owe anybody anything" is supposed to mean you don't owe people full disclosure of your pain and trauma, you don't owe people an explanation of your identity, etc.
but instead some of yall seem to think it means "you don't owe anybody basic respect and kindness" and "you don't owe people the use of your privilege to stand up for and platform those without it"
needless to say this is driving me nuts. get it the fuck together.

My friend Mona has asked me to share her story with you all.
Here's the link to the evacuation gofundme. They're very close to their goal. They legitimately only have less than 10k USD left to go before all 9 of them can evacuate.

Update: North Gaza Aid!
As part of his promise, Hussam sent 20% of your HelpGazaChildren donations ($4000) to Mahmoud AbuSalama for the 5th time now, including the earlier North Gaza Campaign (as location on our notion site) to buy food and necessary products for families still surviving the dire situation in North Gaza. The food package contains, as you see in the picture below: flour, lentils, canned food, formula, diapers, and women pads!
Please continue donating and spreading the word — every penny means so much! Feel free to share our campaign link to other platforms as well!
Donate to our GoFundMe which goes directly to Hussam, who manages camps in Rafah, with NO middleman in between!

[Quick ID: The video is of Mahmoud speaking in front of bags of flour and a tumblr sign. There are captions to the video in english. The image below is of groups of packages of items in front of a tumblr sign.]

Recently came across this James Baldwin quote about the Holocaust:
“White people were, and are, astounded by the Holocaust in Germany. They did not know they could act that way. But, I very much doubt whether Black people were astounded.”

when will white lgbts (from the us and europe) realize they have absolutely no benefit from homonationalism and giving politicians support no matter how "liberal" will only result in being thrown under the bus once they used yall up for their political campaigns, image and basically, virtue signaling. they don't give a damn about you, homonationalism and pink washing are counter-productive and only work against the community. get this drilled into your thick skulls already and get your shit together. ditch the nationalism and chauvinism

Please don't forget Armenians
Today is Armenian genocide remembrance day. On april 24, 1915 started mass deportations of hundreds of Armenian intelectuals and community leaders, who were (most of the time) eventually killed. Armenian women and children were systematically r//ed and forcibly converted into islam. There were more than 2 milion Armenians in ottoman empire prior to ww1, 1,5 milion of them were viciously killed. Three millennia of Armenian civilaziation in eastern Anatolis was fully destroyed. Turkey today refuses to acknowledge genocides of christian minorities in early 20th century.
Do you know that mass ethnic cleansing of Armenians in ottoman empire inspired Lemkin to coin the term 'genocide'?
Last year in september azerbaijan allied with turkey initiated a war against Armenia. More that 5000 Armenians were murdered, thousands of Armenia families had to live their ancestrial land to not get murdered. There are hundreds of vids on internet where armenian p.o.w.s are tortured. Recently azerbaijan opened a "museum" displayind dead or dying Armenians and kids were allowed to visit it.
Please educate yourself on Armenian genocide. You can also donate here to help Armenia. Thanks for reading!!
