Help me until we get out of Gaza. The situation has become unbearable. Help me before it is too late
A shooting star streaking across the sky
it really hurts me to see so many gazans asking us for help, though that's through no fault of their own. they've been forced to use a social media site that they're probably not familiar with (because tumblr has kind of faded out of popular consciousness), to interact with us in a second language, to distinguish themselves from the scammers who are taking advantage of genocide, and to ask strangers for help. i don't think there are any cultures where it's easy to ask for help like this, but i'm intimately familiar with how humiliating it can be in arab culture. please be kind, gracious and helpful to the gazans in your inbox. this is a desperate time for them, and in addition to the physical danger inflicted by "israel", the prices of basic resources in gaza are extremely high due to scarcity, and those that manage to escape to egypt are financially exploited by landlords there and have an extremely difficult time finding work due to their unofficial status as refugees. these families will continue to need our help and i hope we can all continue to provide it to the best of our ability.
I need good luck right now
so I got into grad school today with my shitty 2.8 gpa and the moral of the story is reblog those good luck posts for the love of god
today's vetted fundraisers. eid just began - instead of a happy time of togetherness and celebration, families like these are having to spend the holy days amidst the cruelest of circumstances, deprived of all components of safe and healthy life. now is a more vital time than ever to support these campaigns. any contribution you can make is valuable.

“HOWDY ROWDIES!” 👋
It’s a coincidental mall meetup! This was inspired by the teen scene in the City of Clipsville episode. I’ve always wanted try drawing my own version of it!
Are fedoras really that bad?
YES YES THEY ARE
What was the point of having Travis Scott there? He barely did anything? And the Rock didn't even show up!
The match was okay, but WTF was that ending?! (I'm happy that Cena won, and a little sad that Cody lost, but WHAT?!)
