What to boycott NOW to help stop Israel’s unfolding genocide of Palestinians in Gaza

We call on our supporters to strengthen our targeted boycott and divestment campaigns to maximize our impact!

Reminder that boycotting DOES work, there is historic proof! Don't let anyone discourage you otherwise!

The BDS movement uses the historically successful method of targeted boycotts inspired by the South African anti-apartheid movement, the US Civil Rights movement, the Indian anti-colonial struggle, among others worldwide.

We must strategically focus on a relatively smaller number of carefully selected companies and products for maximum impact. Companies that play a clear and direct role in Israel’s crimes and where there is real potential for winning, as was the case with, among others, G4S, Veolia, Orange, Ben & Jerry’s and Pillsbury. Compelling such huge, complicit companies, through strategic and context-sensitive boycott and divestment campaigns, to end their complicity in Israeli apartheid and war crimes against Palestinians sends a very powerful message to hundreds of other complicit companies that “your time will come, so get out before it’s too late!”

I found this camera on the subway and look what was inside...

Felt that it’s important to share videos like this too.

Three vampire brothers decide to hold a competition to see which one of them is the most powerful

The first brother is the strongest.

"Watch this," he says, and takes off at nearly 100 miles per hour. Two minutes later, he returns, his mouth covered in blood.

"What happened?!" his brothers exclaimed.

"You see that mansion over there?"

"Yeah?"

"Well, I went over there and sucked each and every last family member dry. They are all dead."

"Wow!" his brothers say. "As expected, for you are the strongest." The second brother to go is the oldest.

"Watch and learn, boys," he says, and takes off even quicker, at 150 miles per hour.

Five minutes later, he returns, both his mouth and his neck covered in blood.

"What happened?!" His brothers exclaimed.

"You see that village over there?"

"Yeah?" They said.

"Well I went over there and killed every last person in the entire village. There is not one left alive."

"Wow!" his brothers say in awe. "As expected, for you are the oldest and have the most experience."

The third brother is the fastest.

Not to be outdone, he says "Watch this, and don't blink or you might miss it."

He flies off, faster than the rest of them, going at least 200mph. In only ten seconds, he returns. His entire mouth, nose, and neck are covered in so much blood, it stains the front of his shirt.

"What happened?!" his brothers exclaimed.

"You see that giant tree over there?"

"…Yeah?"

"Well I sure fuckin' didn't."

The Redamancy AU

Redamancy AU is what I affectionately call my Ninjago re-write. I'd thought I'd share some changes to the main cast's pre-main story lives for funsies :D

Kai:

He and Nya are raised by their mother's bestfriend(Tomoe Kobayashi) and her best friend's husband husband(Hikaru Kobayashi).

Kai got his fire element from his mother Amara.

He lives in a village that lays at the base of the mountain that the monastery lays upon.

Kai works with the Kobayashi family since it was easy work and it gave him daylight hours to do whatever.

Kai has Dyslexia and ADHD(Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder)

His full name is Kai Isamu Smith. He is sixteen years old. His birthday is August 1st.

Nya:

She and Kai are raised by their mother's bestfriend(Tomoe Kobayashi) and her bestfriend's husband(Hikaru Kobayashi)

Nya operates as Samurai X and prefers to work alone rather than as a team anyway.

Nya listens to a radio station called 'South Eastern Archipelago Oceanic Radio Station' or SEAORS that reports the ever changing status of the South Eastern Archipelago. She likes the pirate stories.

Nya had an apprenticeship with an inventor named Marnie Grace who lived in the village Nya grew up in. Nya eventually ends it to become Samurai X.

Nya has a special assistant she built named Ruth who keeps her lab clean, as well as alert Nya to disturbances in Ninjago and keep track of correspondence between Destiny's Bounty.

Her full name is Nya Tomoe Smith. She is fifteen years old. Her birthday is October 29th.

Lloyd:

Lloyd had a caretaker named Delphi who acts more like an older sister than a mother. But Lloyd doesn't care. He's just happy to have someone. Not like he'd admit it or anything.

Lloyd has purple eyes and very sharp canines from being conceived by Misako and Lord Garmadon while Lord Garmadon was very much so a demon-like man.

He wanted to be a comic artist before he got sent into the Ninjago foster system.

Lloyd has ADHD(Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder) and ASD(Autism Spectrum Disorder)

Garmadon is not Lloyd's actual last name nor is it Lord Garmadon's actual name. Garmadon was an ancient word in a now long dead language of Ninjago. Garmadon meant 'Dominant, In Control'

Lloyd's full name is Lloyd Montgomery Ito. His birthday is July 5th. Lloyd is eight years old.

Zane:

Zane causes extreme feelings of unease around normal people and people feel extremely cold when around him.

Zane has been chased out of 16 villages because they thought him an Oni desperately trying to hold onto a human form.

Sensei Wu found Zane when he went to investigate the claims of a shapeshifting Oni. Sensei Wu brought Zane to The Monastery under the promise of a family and not being chased out of another village.

Zane is specifically built to function and grow like a human because although an artificial automaton, the remnants of the last Elemental Master of Ice live and breathe within him, making him an elemental master in wait of finding his old life.

Zane is very friendly with the Yōkai that Master Wu employs to keep his information webs strong. He is especially friendly with the kitsune on the coastal village of Hayami in the South Eastern Archipelago.

Zane's full name is Zane Boreas Julien. His creation date is February 18th. He is sixteen years old.

Jay:

Jay's biological parents are a swindler named Flynn Watts and a school teacher named Mary Walker. Mary Walker offered Jay to her brother Edward and his wife Janis because Mary didn't have the salary for raising Jay. Edward and Janis jumped at the opportunity to raise a child. No one told Jay his Aunt Mary was actually his mother.

Jay had a pet guinea pig as a kid named 'Scraps'. Scraps fell into a trash compacter.

Jay was homeschooled by Janis and Edward until fourth grade. He exceled so hard he ended up skipping a few grades and being a high school sophomore at age thirteen before Sensei Wu found him.

Jay took online classes while training with Sensei Wu and is the only one of the ninja to have finished high school.

Jay was taught how to ballroom dance by Janis who used to competitively ballroom dance before getting too old to safely do it without hurting himself.

Jay's full name is Jay Benedict Walker. His birthday is September 10th. He is fifteen years old.

Cole:

Cole has a childhood bestfriend/girlfriend he calls Aster who he writes letters to. He sends her letters scented with his cologne. Aster sends dried aster flowers enclosed in her letters to him.

Cole is a naturally big boi. His father used to hate this.

Cole loves cake so much because he never was allowed to have any as a kid and to him cake tastes like freedom.

Cole ran away from The Martin Oppenheimer School of Performing Arts after two days. He was fourteen. Sensei Wu found Cole and convinced Cole to come with him.

Cole was the first ninja taken in by Sensei Wu.

Cole's full name is Nicholas Claude Brookstone. His birthday is December 30th. He is seventeen years old.

reblog to give a strawberry to the person you reblogged this from

If you're in an unsafe domestic situation and have a hidden secondary phone:

Wednesday, October 4th, FEMA is conducting a national test for emergency alerts. Your phone will get the alert anywhere from 2:20 pm (Eastern time) to 2:50 pm.

The sudden noise of this alert could disclose the location of your hidden device, so it's best to power it completely down during that time.

Stay safe.
