there's something so infuriating about when I get the chance to infodump about bees and then I forget all my cool bee facts or I don't have enough things that I think people would want to hear about bees

i worry that wider tumblr is gonna do that thing where a joke gets divorced from its context and this situation is going to go from being known as "tumblrs horrific transmisogyny and the ceos childish response" to just "haha the ceo had a meltdown about a loony tunes esque post"
take me to the moooon 🐄👽🛸
L+Ratio+You don't know how to use the habitual 'Be'+You think aave is "teen speak"+you get all your "slang" from tik tok+you think Black people talk funny

someone really commented "this is illegal" on a post about blocking weapons shipments to israel...and there was another person saying "finally someone pointed out you could go to jail for this". i'm losing my fucking mind. there is no legal avenue to stop what the US government is doing and you need to accept that at this point.
Genocide flattens every discussion. There are no new conversations to be had about the destruction, death and cruelty. After more than a year, there is nothing left to be said about various media houses, corporations and international bodies of law aiding and abetting all that has been happening in Gaza, either. It is the banality of evil, it is colonialism. However even in this atrociously banal circumstance, I do think what still is a continued point of hope for Gazans and what still pushes so many of them to reach out to the world, is the support people around the globe have shown and still continue to show. Which is why I am here on behalf of the Shehab family ( @fahedshehab-new ) and requesting you to help them survive through this winter. This won't take much of your time so please read:
Fahed is currently supporting 13 family members in total- his own family and that of his sister’s.
He has to look after 8 children now, with the youngest being his son Yayha who is barely having anything to eat because the price of baby milk is exorbitantly high in Gaza.
The genocide has taken a toll on Fahed’s daughters. Sahar and Dana spent a whole year under the threat of bombs and right now instead of getting to be teenagers, they ask their father if they will survive. They have even said they don't want to live if they lose someone.
The family right now immediately needs clothes to keep them warm throughout winter. Fahed’s family is from the north and has been displaced several times before they came south. Displacement is dangerous and a silent killer because often essential items are lost and cannot be replaced in time.
Please consider that the weather has already turned colder around the world and that which is only mildly uncomfortable to us, presents a dire situation for Gazans. The families don't have a shelter and there is no way for tents to adequately protect from cold winds and rain. So right now the immediate need is for warm clothes and it can cost upto $400 per person. With THIRTEEN PEOPLE to take care of Fahed immediately needs to raise at least 5k to buy the required apparels. So please boost and donate.

Please remember that every donation, even if it is 5 dollars, is a ray of hope for the families who have lost everything.

my biggest fixation for the past year has definitely been music, sharing and discovering new music, the stories behind music, little analyses of the sounds of music (which i've been writing on my Album of the Year account that kinda has longform bloggy content too) etc. etc. but the thing about music is that it is incredibly hard to discuss on text-based social media, not only cause it's trying to transmit audio based media through a predominantly visual based medium, but also engagement farming causes discussions to focus around hot takes and controversial opinions all the time. not saying differing opinions are bad or anything, music is THE most subjective form of art imaginable, but seeing the same black & white thoughts engineered to promote arguments and division every day, that's what those sites feed on, it's the worst. i like nuance. nuance makes my brain happy, taking in different perspectives and forming your own opinion, fucking love that shit, wish so many english essays didn't take off points for you using it. do you see how much i'm writing about nuance right now? this could've been an essay but here i am writing it for free
