here’s a link to operation olive branch, which provides aid to gazans who critically need to evacuate:

you can choose a family you want to send aid to, and click the link to send money. the spreadsheet also has bar graphs showing how much money each family is getting.

Oh fuck off

It's good to try and make positive changes for yourself in the here and now but I'm against this idea of "wasted time". Your life is not an efficiency game, it's just a path you're taking. And honestly, sometimes things don't just get better because you try to make them better. Sometimes it takes time!

Also agree with the person in the tags saying it can be better to have a mindset of hope for the future rather than falling into despair. If you can, you should work for that future, but try not to beat yourself up over a past you can't change.

Living in America is just constantly looking at how AMAZING our propaganda machine is 24/7 365. All day every day, the people who are supposed to "entertain" you will just say "Um, those problems are over there, we will forget them, we will move on, let's focus on what's going on at home <3" Then when we speak on Palestinians being hurt, harassed, and shot here while being demanded to condemn Hamas, Vigils being shut down for fear of "inciting violence", words of resistance being criminalized, Students being expelled for being pro-Palestine, protesters gassed and beaten? They will say "Well, what do you want TRUMP to win?"

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!

Listen. New or questioning trans girl. People will say that wearing a skirt and panties giving you a boner is proof that what you're doing is unnatural. This is untrue. You are experiencing the sense of liking how you look: something most cis people have. You have begun to enjoy your body, something that has been absent for years. Your first kiss ever also will feel/felt that much more powerful. It's a little lame but just enjoy it for now.

hey, everyone. Mohamed Moner, owner of one of the fundraisers on this post, has created his own tumblr account to communicate with everyone. Please give him a follow @mohamedmoner1994 and make him feel welcome, as he is still new with tumblr.

We need to start handing out grade school-level worksheets on feminism and transmisogyny to TMEs on this site. It feels like nobody but trans women here fucking understand how awful shit is and it results in absolutely braindead takes like "excluding men is TERF-y" or "misandry is real".
