This guy is my new hero. I LOVE learning about native food plants that just grow everywhere without human help.

The database is a little clunky to use (especially on a phone), but still loads of excellent information.

I've been dreading making this post but here it goes

I am a 33 year old trans woman currently in a very tight financial situation

at the end of December, I broke 3 of my ribs in an accident as had to stay home from work to recover and just barely recently returned to work

however, due to a lack of sick leave to cover 2 months (time spent recovering and dealing with work not wanting me back until I was at 100% capability), my next paycheck will be lower than average, and since I've been living paycheck to paycheck, this is really bad news

especially since the bill for both my hospital visit and an increase of my car insurance payment decided to happen all at once

my savings are dreadfully low and this isn't even taking the regular bills for this month into mind

I know it's a very hard time for a lot of people, which is why I feel guilty writing this, but if any help at all can be spared I will DEEPLY appreciate it so much; PLEASE ONLY HELP IF YOU ARE ALRIGHT FINANCIALLY

thank you all so much 💜

reminder that being against ai also means being against character.ai and not using character.ai and not interacting with character.ai

i've never talked to chatgpt i've never talked to character.ai i have no interest in talking to a chatbot even if it's fun or based on my comfort character. if we want companies to stop using ai we need to tell them we aren't going to interact with it - so don't.

don't talk to robots. full stop.

shut up and look at this photo of Marsha P. Johnson smiling and holding a Snoopy plush.

Please reblog to make sure everyone is equipped!

it's very surreal to see posts about palestine dwindling down after the ceasefire. israel is still blocking aid to and trying to make life difficult for palestinians in gaza. we still have to continue to speak up about gaza.

in this ceasefire, many palestinians are trying to rebuild in attempts to try and return to what they had before the genocide. despite the heavy and unbearable loss of life that gaza has experienced, her people continue to try to make a better world for their children.

alaa is a mother of two young children. she wants to rebuild her house and get a better future for her children. please have heart and consider helping her out. her fundraiser has been verified.

Imagine walking for miles beneath a merciless sun, each step a battle against exhaustion. The empty water containers in your hands feel heavier with every faltering step, but you press on through rubble-strewn streets, driven by the desperate need to find clean water for your family.

Your vision blurs, dark spots dancing at the edges, and your heart pounds with the effort to stay upright. The heat is suffocating, your limbs tremble with fatigue, but you force yourself forward, refusing to give in. Then, without warning, your strength gives out. Your legs buckle, and you collapse onto the burning earth, dust rising around you as darkness claims your senses.

Story written by @rumiandroses

For most in Gaza, each day is a battle for survival—but for fifteen year old Ahmed Aldani, who is chronically ill, the struggle is far more severe. His body is being pushed to its limits by the relentless strain of hunger, pain, and exhaustion. He needs urgent medical care and a chance to escape the nightmare that has become his everyday life.

Image: Ahmed recently reached out to us with an update on his condition.

Every task, no matter how small, has become a struggle for survival. Just a few weeks ago, Ahmed collapsed while walking 3 kilometers (almost 2 miles) to fill water—his body having difficulty sustaining the effort, in desperate need of medical care that, without financial help, is out of reach for Ahmed and his family.

Born amidst conflict, Ahmed has spent all fifteen years of his life enduring the effects of war. The development of his teeth and hair were negatively impacted by toxic gas his mother inhaled during a phosphorus attack while pregnant with him in 2008. The recommended treatment—dental implants—is far beyond his family’s means, with each tooth costing around $1,000. But without treatment, the pain and exhaustion will only worsen.

Images: The development of Ahmed's hair and teeth were impacted by white phosphorus that his mother accidentally inhaled after an occupation attack near the family home in 2008.

Ahmed’s family has been displaced more than seven times in the past ten months, their savings drained just to stay alive. They now live in the southern part of Gaza, jobless and with no access to proper medical care.

This GoFundMe is a lifeline, both for Ahmed’s survival and for his family’s chance to escape Gaza and access the medical treatment he so desperately needs. The goal is to raise $50,000 to cover travel expenses, medical care, and a chance for Ahmed to finally rest, heal, and grow up without pain overshadowing every moment.

Ahmed needs your help—now more than ever. Even the smallest donation can help bring him closer to the care he needs to reclaim his health and his future.

You can donate to Ahmed's GoFundMe campaign [HERE].

Ahmed's campaign has been vetted by @gazavetters, and is (#198) on their list of verified campaigns.

Ramadan in Gaza… A Different Ramadan

Today marks the first day of Ramadan, the month of mercy and giving. But in Gaza, it holds an entirely different meaning.

Here, displacement has become a daily reality. With food shortages, power outages, and a lack of basic necessities, fasting this month has become an overwhelming challenge.

We do everything we can to provide for our needs, but the circumstances are extremely harsh. While others live in safety, we remain under constant uncertainty, never knowing what might happen next.

In this blessed month of generosity and kindness, we ask for your support to help ease our suffering. Your donation, no matter how small, can make a significant difference in our lives.

So far, we have raised $14,264, and we are so close to reaching our goal of $14,500—only $236 left! Donate here and help make an impact.

Remember that even with the ceasefire, as violated as it is, that that does not mean that anything is safe in Gaza. The cold is still leading to children's deaths and in getting frostbite.

Here are 2 young children who have no home that you can donate too, or at least pray for if nothing else.

I love Josh’s anti-classism so much. I grew up in a single parent household that didn’t have time/the ability to cook. I taught myself as an adult and ended up loving it. I cook with this stuff a lot. Shit, the RealLemon juice ends up in a lot of my cocktails. Sure, I like fancy ingredients when I can afford them and I have things I get picky about using - but I have bad hands, mincing garlic is painful as fuck. There’s a lot to be said for knowing how to work with what you have. Don’t shame people for trying, don’t shame people for feeding their families things that they enjoy.

They are feeling more empowered so keep a watchful eye on who is around you.

Days Since Start: 61

Damn I’m getting bad at updates with these, honestly to my own detractors more than anything, like one other person reads these and it’s my favorite toxic yaoi ex (luv u 4realsies u know who u are) but I digress-

The body hair is body hairing!!! Like it’s starting to be visible enough for other people to see it and I don’t have to be 3cm from the mirror to see it:)) Right now my happy trail is what’s most visible but my mustache is a close second:)) Haven’t seen any evidence of a beard but one thing at a time:)) I’ve also had my voice drop once and that’s super super exciting:DD It happened like a few weeks ago so I’ve had time to adjust and all that jazz:)) Don’t know if I’ve had any like jaw changes or anything bc 1. My jaw is already Super Chissled and 2. I’m on gel so all the traits are gonna show up super slowly. Either way I’m happy with where this is going and I can’t wait to see what else happens:))

And I have a much much better general life update this time, I’m getting an apartment:DD With a partner of mine nonetheless:DD Our move in date is the 29th of this month, which is also trans day of visibility funnily enough (they’re non-binary:))) so hopefully next time I’m blogging it won’t be about my mom making me feel worthless or anything like that, it’ll be stupid gay stories and such:D

Also funny little tidbit, I have some friends in their 30s and such who found out I had a tumblr acc and that the site was still active and their reactions have ranged from “that’s still a thing??” To “why are you at the devil’s sacrament??” And it’s honestly kinda funny:)) But yeah seanie-boy out I’m like on the clock for my job and gotta do stuff ab it((:

Rest in Power, Edward Crawford. 

The word you are looking for is “selfish.” Not narcissist, not sociopath, selfish.

Do we think "Israel" brazenly bragging about not allowing humanitarian aid through the border will be enough for people to stop scolding Gazans for making individual/family fundraisers because "it's better to donate to trusted orgs instead" or are they never going to get it?

Love showing people pictures of my gf who only ever takes mirror selfies with the phone covering half her face like “omg look at her she’s so so pretty yeah I know you can’t see her but look at herrrrrr”

LA Cares AIDS campaign (c.1984) starring Zelda Rubinstein Zelda Rubinstein was a little person (the term she preferred) who began acting in her 40's. Her big break came in 1982 with her role as Tangina Barrons in the film Poltergeist.

In 1984, she was the the central figure in a series of advertisements, directed towards gay men specifically, promoting safer sex and AIDS awareness. Rubinstein did so at risk to her own career, especially so shortly after her rise to fame, and admitted later that she did "pay a price, career-wise." "I lost a friend to AIDS, one of the first public figures that died of AIDS," the actress said in an interview with The Advocate. "I knew it was not the kind of disease that would stay in anybody's backyard. It would climb the fences, get over the fences into all of our homes. It was not limited to one group of people." She attended the first AIDS Project Los Angeles AIDS Walk. (Source:Wikipedia)

Trying to sell handmade crafts in this economy is so. Like. Hey guys I know we're all broke as fuck but do you want my silly little things. I'm very good at it. For the time it takes to make them + skill + materials it's gonna be 30$ per silly little thing. But also shipping costs 12$ for reasons outside my control so it's actually 42$ now. Sorry. No I really can't charge less than that. Yeah I know. Ok. Bye

Not sure how many of y'all saw this, but the combined misogyny-ableism-transphobia was off the charts. I am glad that he did get his top surgery, has support, and that its pursuing it's goals to advocate for other disabled + trans people.
