There is no safe place left. The Israeli army is merciless and does not know humanity. Save us from certain death through support via PayPal wallet.

this is a verified fundraiser. please see @/el-shab-hussein‘s masterpost of vetted fundraisers. Alaa and Bilal are on the priority fundraising list there. I am also in contact with Alaa and can attest that this is real.

both of them lost their beautiful home and their livelihood due to the genocide.

update: very good news! due to a very generous donation, Alaa and Bilal reached their initial goal. they are now trying to raise enough money to evacuate the rest of their family as well.

the new goal is 25k and so far they have reached $ 16.024/$ 25.000

please share this and donate, even a small amount of money (1-2$) genuinely helps.

Kids don’t even get expelled from school when their parents post violent racism and transphobia online, but of course THIS is where schools draw the line. Fucking hell.

Three years back, I created 13 alternate accounts on Discord and inserted them into my friend group over the course of a few months, pretending each of them was a new person. They have their own personality and typing / grammar distinctions, and their own fake life events and stories that I've had to keep meticulous track of. Some of them even engaged romantically with real people, though none in the present day. Nowadays the original friend group is split up, with some fake people being present in about each server that still has some kind of connection to the former group. One active group chat even has six alts and one real person. I literally have to keep this up like a puppetmaster because these pretend people have real, important connections to people I still care about. It's hard but I literally don't know how to resolve or change the situation without causing a wave of dispair and destruction in one way or another.

This reminds me of the time I accidentally fully replaced someone’s friendship with a friendship with myself.

how did this happen

Lolol, so like my husband says that I worded that weirdly and so I might have communicated the wrong Idea but like.

I went to three different high schools. In the third one I made friends with this one dude, we’ll call him Mike. He would frequently tell me stories of this legendary dude who graduated the year before, pseudonymed Eric. Apparently Eric had gotten a nickname for his beard, The Dangerous Beard, and Mike kinda fawned over him, even made a theme song for this beard. I met Eric once or twice casually with Mike, so like, he was a known face to me, I was a known face to him. Apparently, like, he was less close friends with Mike than Mike thought they were, but, y'know, it was still something.

So jump forward a couple years. We’ve all drifted apart some. Eric shows up at my workplace and like he knows my face but can’t place me, so I start singing this theme song for his beard. I thought I was just placing myself as that friend of Mike’s, but apparently his mind kinda slotted me into the memories of Mike, in place of Mike. We had some more chance get togethers that had this kinda mood over the next few months. Like half a year later I’m having a smoke break and Eric and I are chatting, and a friend of his comes by and he introduces us, and it’s clear from like the things he’s saying that, like, he is now convinced that he and I went to school together (we didn’t) and that I was good little weird lackey (I wasn’t) and that I made up all sorts of stories about the adventures of his beard and this theme song (I didn’t). I froze and didn’t know how to handle the situation, and so I just kinda went with it.

It is now over two decades from high school, and like we’re not close friends but we chat, and he supported me through my transition, I helped him through a hard break up and helped him get a business started, so like we have this real connection, but it’s rooted in this fake high school relationship that HE HAD WITH SOMEONE ELSE AND I DON’T KNOW IF HE’S REALIZED THAT AND JUST ROLLED WITH IT.

So yeah. I replaced a dude in another dude’s memories, and it’s been so long now that how do I even fix that?

In response to that anon who made a bunch of discord alts with their own backstories. first of all, I'm so glad I'm not the only person who's ever done this. second of all I had..46 different accounts..I know this because I have a word document with character timelines and character traits.ALT

Dear Friends,

My name is Laila, and I am writing to you from a place of deep despair. The conflict in Gaza has forced us from our home, and we now find ourselves in Khan Younis, struggling to survive. My mother is pregnant, and her life is in grave danger.

I feel utterly helpless and overwhelmed by our situation. There are moments when I wish for my own suffering to end, but my only hope now is to save my mother. I have started a campaign to raise funds for her evacuation and medical care.

Please, I beg you to share our campaign on your social media platforms. Your help can make a difference and give my mother a chance to live.

Thank you for your compassion and support.❤️🙏🏼

Sincerely,

“this fundraiser is vetted by nabulsi, fallahifag, el-shab-hussein, ibtisams, sayruq”

I’m thinking about the stupid fucking parasocial dynamic between sir pentious and alastor. I have questions

Screenshot of the Hazbin Hotel pilot of Sir Pentious saying "We meet yet again, Alastor!" while facing the hotel crew.ALT
Screenshot from episode 2 of Sir Pentious saying "We've done battle, like... 20 times." to Alastor.ALT

the fact that sir pentious says “again” in the pilot and him saying they’d done battle “like 20 times” in episode 2, was this just like. a regular thing he did even prior to alastor’s disappearance. where he would just come in every other week to attack alastor while he was casually doing stuff and alastor just forgot each and every time.

also keep in mind sir pentious is from the VICTORIAN ERA, he arrived in hell before alastor. how. how long has he known him. how long had he been DOING this.

sir pentious being one of the chronologically oldest major characters really makes you think about how much he has seen or knows about LMAO

also the fact that he says “for when I’ve slain you the almighty vees will finally acknowledge me as their equal” was he just thinking of alastor just being generally powerful that it’d be cool if he defeated him or did he know the specific significance of alastor in the context of the vees. I also find it funny that he found out about alastor’s return BEFORE vox, yeah if he delivered a dead alastor to the vees after 7 years I’m sure that would’ve been one fucking hell of a shock

Go Badge-Free: Tumblr is a multimillion dollar company that doesn’t need your loyalty!

Some users (“many” by Tumblr’s own unsourced metrics) might want to support Tumblr with something similar to regular donations. Great news! You don’t need to, it’s a multimillion dollar company, and its parent company, Automattic, was valued at around 7.5 billion dollars in 2021 as stated by none other than Tumblr’s Elon-Musk-wannabe CEO himself! Tumblr isn’t going to go broke any time soon, and any money you waste on it will just convince staff that the garbage fire they’re currently tossing the site into is profitable!

Enter the power of not giving a fuck about useless badges and shitty merch of stolen memes. Everyone with a brain knows auto-renewable subscriptions aren’t the way to a “user-led business model”, and again, you don’t need to show your support for a massive multimedia platform despite whatever their embarrassing ad campaigns that just want money may tell you!

How it works—or doesn’t:

Tumblr doesn’t care about the users, whether you’re giving them money for nothing or not! So take the initiative yourself. Send them negative feedback about the pointless UI updates. Give Tumblr a 1-star rating on the app store or play store. Disable your badges. Block intrusive ads (and potentially dangerous flashing ones). Style the dashboard to look less like a 1 : 1 clone of Twitter. Install additions to fix basic site functionality.

Seriously, who is buying subscriptions besides staff:

The subscription badges do nothing. Nada. Zero. That is, unless staff decides to lock basic functionality behind a subscription in the future, so make so to make it flop before then.

Pricing:

A year’s subscription for a useless cosmetic badge costs you $30 USD. Cheaper than Twitter Blue, sure, but it sure does a whole lot less! Meanwhile, fixing your own user experience and complaining to staff is permanently on sale for the low, low price of free. Spend your money on a nice treat instead!

More details:

That’s all for now. No idea who exactly would buy a badge subscription of all things in the first place that staff probably designed in 5 minutes. Maybe someday Tumblr’s will figure out how to interpret actual human behavior and user desires, but that day has yet to come. Stay weird, and Tumblr is not your quirky friendly hellsite company <3

Being a young adult is so strange. You enter a coffee shop. The 20 year old girl waiting behind you cried all night because she just came to a new city for university and she feels so alone. That 27 year old guy over there works a job he is overqualified for, he lives with his parents and wants to move out but doesn’t know what to do about it. That one 24 year old dude already has a car, a house, and a job waiting for him once he graduates thanks to his dad’s connections. The 26 year old barista couldn’t complete his higher education because he has to work and take care of his family. The 28 year old girl sitting next to you has no friends to go out with so she is texting her mother. That couple (both 25 years old) are married and the girl is pregnant. The 29 year old writing something on her laptop has realized that she chose the wrong major so she is trying to start all over. We are not alone in this, but we are actually so alone. Do you feel me

I heard reference to something about how all anime are required to have good looking cabbage because of That One Time. So simply looking up “anime cabbage” I found the source.

Some harem anime way back in the day had an episode where the characters cooked, and they animated cabbage so terribly like this it left a bad mark on the anime community forever. Apparently this is part of the reason why all food usually looks good in anime, even moreso than the regular show sometimes. With cabbage being especially well drawn.

A complaint, apparently in a paper.

The first show when released internationally was reanimated in this part.

And high quality or low quality cabbage is sometimes referenced.

I learned of this because the most recent Hologra episode has noel eating cabbage, tearing apart a fine quality cabbage into two low poly halves.

i love learning about other cultures’ memes, especially like this

i just think i could benefit from a healthier transgender life actually. no more talking pain and suffering and death all the time. lets talk about what being comfortable with who you are brings instead. catharsis is healthy but so is having fun and healing and remembering and being lightness etc etc i could go on and on but for brevity’s sake being transgender saved my life!!!! if i did not accept that part of myself i would not be here anymore. here i am!!! it was hard!! here i am!!!

and i love my gender because “i asked god to send me a swordsman and he said look at your hands” etc etc look this is not the post for heroics or half remembered quotes whose author name i will later find and paste here: (Melissa Broder) but what it is about is gender euphoria. don’t let anyone tell you being transgender is the end of your life, to me it felt like the beginning, like i’d freaking woke up for the first time and noticed how sunbeams fell through the open window, cool fresh air. a beautiful new day just beginning to bloom before my very eyes.

What a funny story…

okay context for the non-italians. long story short: it’s pretty much impossible from an engineering perspective. there are very strong and swirly currents that make it not feasible to just build a bridge where the coasts are the closest - it would have to be built in a spot where the distance between the coasts is wider, a little too much for a bridge possibly, but also, like, outside of the cities, which means it would still be quicker for people to step on the ferry than drive all the way to the bridge. the ferry is quick, cheap, also they’ve introduced sustainable non-polluting boats, so, literally no one in either sicily or calabria wants a useless bridge, even if it could be built safely.

on top of that… it’s a seismic area. you really don’t want to make engineering experiments there.

governments have tried to figure out a way to build that bridge at least from the 60s, afaik, but engineers have just come to the conclusion that nope.

also: people in sicily and calabria have reason to believe that if a project like that gets given the green light, it will end up fattening the pockets of corrupted politicians and mafia groups.

pretty straightforward right? yeah… NOPE!

the italian right has been waving the proposal of building that bridge for decades. every once in a while, when you think you’re free, BAM the right-wing politician genius of the moment comes up with the law proposal to build the bridge. it used to be berlusconi, now berlusconi is dead, recently it’s been salvini. they propose to build the bridge, the left says “what the fuck”, and the right goes see!! the left doesn’t want progress and development for the country!! they want the country to languish and die!!

(in the meanwhile taxpayers’ euros go into paying commissions that need to figure out how to build the bridge, ignoring that there’s been a billion commissions over almost a century that have all come to the conclusion that nope.)

(also remember what i said about corrupted politicians and mafia groups? well try to guess the reason it’s the right-wing parties that keep insisting on building this fucking bridge.)

it’s become a total national joke. mention the bridge on the strait to an italian, they’ll laugh as they go through the 5 stages of italian political grief.

Holy shit I think I just cracked the code of why people think you can't sell things on Tumbir

I was reading one of the Substacks I subscribe talking about how they promote their publication and their various sources of traffic, when I came across this paragraph:

I've also quickly learned where my content is doing best and where it's doing the worst. In terms of engagement, Bluesky and Tumblr are where I'm getting the most native sharing But Bluesky and Tumblr users don't click And even worse for poor old Tumble, trying to flip a Garage Day post into a Tumblr post that will do well takes way too much time and effort for me to keep up with it. And, while it's nice that Bluesky users like what I'm doing, at least, in theory, they don't click and even fewer signs According to my stats, only one Bluesky user ever has paid for a subscription and, apparents not one single user on Tumblr has ever clicked over to Garbage Day, even on posts at me with thousands of ones.

Now I happen to also run a fairly popular Substack (about gay vampires). One whose readers are almost entirely Tumblr users. And Tumblr clicks have just never shown up in thy stats, I'm used to it. Naturally I had to comment:

This is all super useful as another creator trying to wrap my head around the direction the internet is going

thew I might know part of why both of you wer seeing any traffic/si

By default, every external line on Tumbir gets through trafa thich hides rare formation. So whatever service young to track The came from Tune it just comes through as Unassigned Asan the ins from the Tussa post on M. Beast looks like this: htt www.dv.mabeast chanc

It's not just Substack's tracking that doesn't

work on here. NO tracking works on here. Tumber is just one of the last platforms left that completely obscures its users' data!

That's why there's this persistent myth that you can't advertise on Tumbh. It's not that you can't sell things here, it's that you can't use the invasive methods that are standard everywhere

I will never understand why this Christmas song goes so hard.

OKAY MOTHERFUCKERS LISTEN UP

BECAUSE THIS SHIT IS NOT CAROL OF THE BELLS

IT IS CHRISTMAS EVE/SARAJEVO 12/24 AND IT IS SO MUCH FUCKING MORE THAN CAROL OF THE BELLS.

so during the bosnian war (which was this nasty-ass conflict in bosnia and herzgovina) there was this badass cello-playing motherfucker named vedran smailovic. He was from Sarajevo, was upset about all the shit and nastiness that came about through this war (this was full-on brother-killing-brother shit!) that he went around to bombed-out, blown up buildings and funderals––where he was at risk of FUCKING SNIPER FIRE––and playing the cello. This guy was so set on providing one tiny spot of beauty in a seriously nasty war he was risking being fucking SHOT OR BLOWN UP.

AND THIS IS THE GUY WHO INSPIRED THIS SONG.

He’s why there’s the calm cello part at the beginning before everything gets all violent-sounding. It’s THEMATIC.

THAT’S WHY THIS CHRISTMAS SONG GOES SO FUCKING HARD.

WHY ISN’T MORE CHRISTMAS MUSIC LIKE THIS?????

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vedran_Smailovi%C4%87

There’s the wikipedia article about him and yes…true story…

It’s also important to understand that Christmas Eve/Sarajevo 12/24 was not originally a Trans Siberian Orchestra song. It was originally recorded by Savatage, a metal band, for their concept album “Dead Winter Dead,” and when some Savatage members formed TSO, they adopted that song as a TSO song because yeah it’s fucking amazing.

Friendly reminder that this exists.

Friendly reminder that Vedran’s performances also included a pile of rubble that used to be a fountain IN THE CENTER OF A TOWN SQUARE WITH NO COVER.

When asked years later why he’d down something so apparently suicidal, he shrugged and replied that it was his way of proving that “the spirit of humanity was still alive in that place, despite all evidence to the contrary.”

May we all be as brave and stalwart in protesting violence and injustice as Vedran “The Most Bad-Ass Cellist Ever” Smailović.

Also, despite what some articles may say, Vedran was not an old man when this happened. He’s only in his early 60s today, which would have made him no older than 37 when he was playing in the ruins of Sarajevo. Never let anyone tell you it’s only old men who can make a difference.

i love that the dictionary definition of the word “pervert” or “perversion” is the corruption or distortion of something. hell yeah i’m a pervert i love corruption and distortion.

angels are metaphysical beings but i do like to imagine how an angelic corpse would behave if they left one behind when killed. i like to think that it’d get hotter rather than cooling as the mechanisms and functions that keep it stable decay, eventually resulting in meltdown and the spontaneous combustion of the corpse, like a hay fire or nuclear disaster.

calling the bomb disposal squad and quarantining the area after an angel falls to make sure that it’s contained before it starts leaking toxic byproducts into the atmosphere and poisoning the groundwater
