“It’s necessary for Palestinians to die because otherwise Israelis would never be able to exterminate Hamas!” “Iraqi citizens had to die because the US had to retaliate for the Iran-backed drone attack!” When will you learn that Arab people are not just collateral fucking damage. When will you learn they are not a means to an end. When will you stop dehumanizing Arab people in your endless attempts to justify the mindless slaughter that has been taking place for years, but which has intensified beyond belief the last four months. Why do you need to be told to treat Arab people like they’re human. Why do you need to be told this. Why do you need to be told.
Palestinian landmarks have been completely demolished in the name of exterminating Hamas. Thousands upon thousands of Palestinians have been killed in ways so brutal that some on-site journalists have admitted that they couldn’t bring themselves to press down on the camera. Children and women are living in famine, in sickness, in agony every day. How could you look at all that and use the same tired excuse of “Well we have to take care of Hamas!!” like why are you so anti-Arab racist that it causes you to be out of touch with your own humanity? How do you have it in your heart to see innocent citizens murdered as nothing but collateral damage? How would you react if it were your family that was genocided? How would you react if it were you?
Autistic spaces are getting so much more hostile towards people with low empathy, and it sucks
There was a subreddit I really liked, people were chill, and then there was a sudden influx of people making posts like ‘Autistic people have empathy! Saying we don’t makes us seem like monsters! Thats not a symptom!’ And people making posts explaining that no, actually, some of us do have low empathy got attacked and told they were wrong or ableist? And it sucks, because its just so hard to find a place to exist where you can be seen as not evil? I don’t know, it just hurts a lot to be told that
Both major UK political parties and the British media are complicit in this.
Rishi Sunak mocked trans people in Parliament in front of the grieving mother of a murdered trans girl.
Keir Starmer hand-waved the transphobic hatred behind the murder aside and used the mother to pledge more mental health support for teens.
Sky News sought out transphobes for their VoxPop regarding whether trans people should be allowed to take part in park runs. They couldn’t find anyone who said trans people should be excluded but they ran with ‘Park Run CONTROVERSY’ as their editorial line.
When I go to bed, warm and comfortable. I think about the freezing people in tents who barely have scraps to keep them alive
When I take a shower, unafraid of the water stopping or going cold. I think of the people in gaza who havent showered for months and barely have clean drinking water.
When I watch my brother play with his race cars and my sister with her dolls, I think about the children, who despite all their hardships still find ways to smile and play
When we sit down to eat dinner, never having to fear food on the table the next day. I think about the starving mothers who can’t feed her children and the older siblings walking miles to feed his siblings. I think about the people who died of starvation. I think about the people of gaza
When I go to my school where my friends chat and my teachers teach, I think about the universities demolished and the aspiring students who are no more
When my parents leave for a few hours and I take care of my siblings, I know they’ll be back in a while to take over. But what about the teenagers turned parents? What about the orphans caring for toddlers? What about the children in gaza
Every day I think about the hopeful people of Palestine. The brave people of Palestine. The relentless people of Palestine. The stubborn and beautiful people of Palestine.
When I look at my house, the buildings, the sky, the water, my family, the lights, the sun, the internet, the food, my school, my friends, the children, the parks, the birds, the cats, the toy stores, the supermarkets, the bustling crowds, the heavy traffic
[ID: An IbisPaint screenshot showing a canvas with art of all four versions of Shady.
Classic Shady is in the bottom middle, looking up with his front right hand on his cheek. Behind them and to their right is outside!Shady smiling and showing off his claws. To his left is I2em, who is looking away, lost in thought. Behind all of them, in the top middle, is Shades, staring at the viewer and holding up his scarred arm.
Some details, such as the first three’s arms, and Shades’ head are poking out of the canvas. /End ID]
I drew the Shadies from @shady-item-shop!! Hey, wait, get back inside the canvas! Stop breaking the fourth wall!
I drew this one in record time, the whole thing took me only 7 hours! High quality version under the cut
A Japanese court this week approved a transgender man’s legal gender change without first requiring sterilization, marking a major step forward for trans rights in the country.
Takakito Usui, 50, won recognition of his gender before the Okayama Family Court’s Tsuyama branch on Wednesday. “I want to thank my family. I feel a new life is beginning,” Usui, a farmer living in the rural Yamagata Prefecture, said at a press conference on Wednesday following the ruling.
Usui previously petitioned to change his legal gender in 2016, the paper noted, but was rejected because he had not been medically sterilized, as was then required under Japanese law. In October, Japan’s Supreme Court struck down the 2003 statute requiring trans people to be sterilized before obtaining legal recognition.
Sad to be the one to tell y'all, but aborted children and children died before christening don’t get into heaven. They go to the Limbus, the outermost circle of hell, where the souls go who are exempt from paradise without it being their fault
You need to update your sources
Since 2007 unbaptized children go to heaven and limbo doesn’t exists anymore

Proceeds are donated to the UNRWA, which is one of the major funding agencies providing aid to Palestine. Recently, the US and other major countries have escalated genocidal efforts by cutting funding from the UNRWA, as AlJazzera reports : Which countries have cut funding to the UNRWA and why?
This is a direct action you can take to say fuck you to the government directed genocidal efforts, bookmark the tab, add a calendar notification daily, do what you want. Or if your prefer: Donate Directly to UNRWA
this might be controversial but i believe a furry president would be just as willing to start an endless war on behalf of defence contractors as any normal president
I agree but really am curious what inspired this post
when usamericans say they’re from the midwest they exclusively mean they’re from the central-eastern side of their country. yet another lie from their forkéd tongues
How is bnha anime of the decade…… they aren’t even anime of the hour of the minute of the second
The notes on this post were so toxic that staff just axed em
1969………
Yes, when the original post is deleted from the server (not just the blog, but the Tumblr servers), there is no root post for notes to be added onto, and also no root post for time to be counted from, so it starts from zero. Most computer operating systems use Unix, which was launched in 1971 with t.he epoch date of midnight on January 1, 1970 as 1. Therefore zero is one second behind that date: December 31, 1969. Also, very unfortunately, this also means nobody except you and anyone you reblog it to will see this explanation, as you cannot open the notes to see comments when there are no notes.
going to the bottom of uquiz results to see what percentage of quiz takers got my result to see if im a special little snowflake or an ordinary schmuck
Hey guys so if anyone is interested in donating for the Palestinian cause as all of you know Israel has cut off the internet on Gaza for the past few days, Palestinians sometimes get internet connections & sometimes they don’t.
Elon Musk won’t give Palestinians Starlink internet like he did with Ukraine & Taiwan (I won’t get into this), Egyptian communication companies are trying their best at putting towers on the borders but still too far away from the Palestinians to get connection let alone Israel can bomb them whenever they want and call it a mistake “wink wink”.
So a group of Egyptians have decided to gather E-sims for Palestinians, I honestly don’t know how E-sims work cause we don’t use them here in Egypt but the group does, one of them is the owner of the twitter account in this post Merna El Helbawi, she’s an Egyptian writer & also one of the people who went to the borders to urge aid to pass to Palestine.
At the moment her & others are trying to gather E-sims for Palestinians, they’re 100% given to Palestinians for free, if you can participate, even with one E-sim, you would’ve done your part in helping Palestinians document to the world the evil of Israel & also connected displaced family members with eachothers.
Hope you guys can help.
Also this is how E-sims work since most of us in the middle east are discovering them now, this was posted by Speak Now a feminist entity in Egypt who are also helping in the gathering of the E-sims.
An important update:
If anybody knows any other way we can give connection to Palestinians now that we can’t give new E-sims, you’re very welcome to help.
They’re using Simly and another E-sim till now as Nomad stopped activating in Palestine.
a nsa agent in a suit looking through my laptop camera: she’s on her phone…….. our data shows that she’s got tumblr open on her laptop but she has tumblr open on her phone………. double check her browser?
some nerd hired straight out of college: *types rapidly* she’s definitely got tumblr open on her laptop
the nsa agent, softly: so why is she looking at it on her phone…..
My husband and myself have served in the military. When we call home from overseas, our lines are monitored and on a short delay so no sensitive information is revealed. The line will just go dead if you say something you’re not supposed to.
Now, these calls are monitored by a department in the military called Signal corps. When we’d talk on my husband’s last deployment, we had a running joke that we said hi to “Signal Guy Fred.”
So this continued for his entire 12 month deployment, and we made sure we said hi or bye to “Signal Guy Fred” every phone call. On his final phone call before returning home we made sure to thank “Signal Guy Fred” for his time and wish him farewell.
So, before I disconnect the call, I wish “Fred” the best and thank him for his service. My phone was on speaker mode (I was cooking dinner) and my finger was hovering over the end call button when I hear the softest little, “My name’s Jason.”
So Arizona launched an “education hotline” that allows “concerned parents” to report “””critical race theory””” and other things like ~gender identity~ being taught in the classroom
It would be a shame if the number and email were spread to bad actors looking to prank call the AZ Department of Education
and for the love of god, don’t just spam it with memes or le funny shrek jokes or whatever, they’ll just hang up
make plausible-sounding reports for things that don’t actually exist, so that they actually have to waste time/resources investigating false leads - the goal is to waste time they would otherwise be using to do their jobs, not to get tumblr clout for being an epic troll
So apparently the internet article said the superintendent wouldn’t be deterred by the prank calls because they would ‘taper off eventually’. It’d be a real shame if this post stayed in circulation via queues so they get a consistent list of prank calls to filter through. 😇
