Anytime I See A Bunch Of Pride Flags I Have To Restrain Myself From Saying "where Mexico" Bc I Doubt

Broke:

Belle has Stockholm syndrome because she falls in love with the Beast, her kidnapper.

Woke:

Stockholm syndrome was coined to slander a woman who had been in a hostage situation but openly criticized the poor police response which recklessly put her in more danger and escalated the violence. She was then belittled and discredited publically by the police for this.

So. Yeah. Maybe Belle does have Stockholm syndrome actually.

today i bring you: legolas and gimli flirting while everyone else is dying in the battle of helm’s deep

“Two!” “Two? I have done better, though now I must grope for spent arrows; mine are gone. Yet I make my tale twenty at the least. But that is only a few leaves in a forest.”

“Twenty-one! Now my count passes Master Legolas again.”

“Where is Gimli?…That must be my hope. But I wish that he had come this way. I desired to tell Master Gimli that my tale is now thirty-nine.”

“Forty-two, Master Legolas! Alas! My axe is notched: the forty-second had an iron collar on his neck. How is it with you?” “You have passed my score by one. But I do not grudge you the game, so glad am I to see you on your legs!”

it’s crazy how much diversity there can be in one species…these are all pictures of the same bird species (red-tailed hawk)

There once was a doctor named Freud

Change a single letter and change the word game

I want to play a game with you all.

You have to make a new word by changing only one letter of the last word.

Disclaimer these are just a small sampling of some possible writer traits I’ve noticed either in myself or in fics I read. Also consider a rb for sample size !

I genuinely think that any change in behavior starts w telling yourself that your worst days, worst performances, just worst moments in general aren’t who you “truly are.” It’s all about unlearning any thought process that essentially chalks up traits you aren’t proud of to “this is who I really am” “in reality I’m lazy” “in reality I’m just a bad person” bc not only is that never true, but it impedes your efforts to try to do better as well. Anything we struggle with has roots in things like childhood trauma, thoughts you’ve been fed before, your upbringing…. but never that you’re inherently a bad person. What I’m learning this year is that a lot of us doing better & being better & improving really comes down to self-talk—to disavowing the very notion that deep down we’re simply bad.

Deadline December 31: @etafetaf1234567 needs to enroll her children in school.

Vetted: #9 here by @gaza-evacuation-funds, ButterflyEffect Project #1120, Gazavetters #88

Gfm: Paypal, Google Pay, credit/debit

Etaf and her family are evacuated Palestinians and need €10,000 in their campaign to enroll the children in school preferably before the semester ends.

Detailed family info, needs:

Nov 9:

The family is in Egypt but are still struggling to survive. Etaf wants to enroll her children in school again before the current semester ends. However, public schools are only available to Egyptian residents (which Palestinians aren't) and only expensive private schools are available. To continue her children's education, she needs €10,000 in her campaign (includes extra fees) as soon as possible before Dec 31.

Family info (detailed):

The family of 7 lost everything - their home, livelihood, and belongings.

Eldest sons Moataz and Moatasem and daughter Maria (7) were top students but their education was interrupted by the war.

They have 2 other young children: Adam (4) and Amira (3).

They were evacuated to Egypt in March, where they are still struggling because nobody is helping them. Governmental aid is very slow.

In late October, Etaf's husband Youssef went to Amman to help provide for his family. He is returning in early November due to expensive living costs there.

Needs:

Priority: Enrolling children in school - €10,000

Youssef's project which will help him mke a living - €50,000
