For Those Who Need It

Tumblr is odd because you’ll see a mutual post something really profound like “the birds still sing for those who listen” and you see them 5 minutes later saying something like “need to be pegged.grilled cheese style”

Hi there everyone, I hope you're all doing well.

Before I begin, I wanted to say thank you all so much from the bottom of my heart for all of the attention and donations you have given to the Shehab family so far when I made this post (link) to put more of a spotlight on their fundraiser a while ago.

However, I just received these messages from Reem that I think you all should see:

As she said, the Shehab family's fundraiser has been slowing down lately, so I wanted to make this post to ask you all if you could spare some time out of your day to please spread the word about their fundraiser and give it another boost again?

Please take a look at this new post that Reem shared with me. I encourage you all to read her story carefully with love and care in your hearts for her and her family:

To anyone who sees this, if you all could spread the word about the Shehab family’s campaign and especially donate if you're able to please, it would be greatly appreciated.

Let’s all do whatever we can to help Reem and her family. They're going through so many hardships and are on the verge of losing hope. Let's stop that from happening.

Please reblog, share, repost this on other sites or on your blogs if you'd like to, please do whatever you can to bring attention to their fundraiser so that the family is able to get more donations and support so that they can reach their goal and get to safety!

A lot of Palestinian users have been getting their accounts shadow banned or flat out deleted, and unfortunately, Reem has been a victim of this and has had to use her daughter’s account to reach out to others. I encourage you all to follow these accounts for updates on her and her family’s situation, and so that we can better support them:

@monashehab

@danashehab

@malakshehab

@yehyashehab

@reemshehab

@dodoshehab

@saharshehab52

@fahedshehab-new

Every donation helps no matter how small, so let's all join together and do our best to help Reem and her family out. To Reem and the Shehab family, I wish you all the very best and hope that you reach your goal soon, God bless you all.

Remember, no one is free until we’re all free. Let’s remember to be kind and help each other. Thank you all in advance for your time and help, and I hope you all have a good day.

Sometimes, I like to imagine what Kim and Harry would do together after all of DE like in their line of work

For example: Kim and Harry go to find a lost kitty

Kim: "Detective, how does a lost cat connect to our current case? Let's just report this back to the precinct and let the lost-and-found department handle this case." he looks down at his notebook uninterested in finding the cat

Logic: There is no lost-and-found department.

Composure [Easy:Failure]: The poor kitten is lost and afraid. Curl up in a ball and cry at how devastating that image is.

Rhetoric [Medium:Success]: Show Kim how much this lost cat means to you. That'll convince Kim to listen.

Harry: "But Kim, the kitty... he's lost and needs to find a way home..." you look up at Kim with tears blurring your vision

Perception [Trivial:Sucess]: There in the tree you walk past, you hear a familiar cry of a lost soul

Harry: "Kim, did you hear that?"

Kim: "Detective, we need to-"

Harry: "There! Up in the tree!" You point to the branch in which the stands afraid

Kim: "I don't see it, Detective." He squints his eyes, trying to locate the branch where he hears the voice from

Visual Calculus [Easy:Failure]: You could easily climb up there in the tree, grab the cat, and come down heroically, proving to Kim that you were in fact right in helping this cat.

Harry: You clumsily climb the tree, almost falling on your way up, and when you get to the branch where the cat is, you reach for the branch using it as support.

Harry: The branch can't support your weight and breaks as both you and the cat fall off the tree

Lost Cat: As he is falling, he notices Kim and prepares to land square on his face

Pain Threshold [Trivial:Sucess]: You've experienced worst pain than this before, walk it off.

Kim:"Detective, are you okay?" The cat is still hugging Kim's face as he gently pulls the cat off and cradles it like a baby.

Harry: Picking yourself up, you notice the cat has cuddled up to Kim and wished you were the cat right now

Harry:"Let's go back to the precinct and return the cat to its owner" there's a hint of jelousy in your voice as the cat looks at you without a care in the world

*Back at the precinct*

Jean Vicquemare: "Did you make any progress in the case?" he looks over at Kim and notices the cat in his hand. "...not again..."

Empathy [Easy:Failure]: He looks tired, I think he's taken on too many cases and needs a good night sleep.

Harry: "Did you want me to grab a cup of coffee for you?"

Jean Vicquemare: "Shitkid, how many times have I told you to focus on your case. We've got enough case load as is, and you helping a lost cat doesn't help anybody here." he tries his best not to raise his voice but is clearly upset and exasperated.

Kim: "I'm sorry, Lieutenant. I tried to convince him out of it, but you know how he gets." Kim tries to calm Jean but clearly Jean is upset at you and not Kim.

Jean Vicquemare: "Listen, Lieutenant Kitsuragi, while I appreciate your attempts at trying to convince him, shitkid over here needs to get his shit together to complete the case soon or else..." he's looking at you with a glare

Rhetoric: Feel around your pocket. Remember the clues you picked up on your way back to the precinct. Maybe that'll convince Jean to get off your case.

Composure [hard:failure]: Shit shit shit. Jean is right. You picked up nothing. Nada. Your pocket only holds trinkets of your trip. Oh god, what are we going to do.

Drama [easy:failure]: Lie about your trip. Maybe if you convince Jean that the trinkets you picked up along that way was a gift for him he'd let you go

Harry: Pulls out a pinecone from your pocket. "Jean, this is for you, my dearest partner. I found it while we were out, and it reminded me of you. " You look at him with puppy dog eyes.

Jean Vicquemare: "..." he sighs tired and ready to give up on you entirely

*end scene*

Since the holiday toy drive post is circulating again, I figured this would also be helpful! Food insecurity is such a massive problem in America, in general, and if you have the means to help feed others, I think you should take that opportunity. Here are some other tips:

1. If you’re planning on donating items from your own pantry, please check the expiration dates on the packaging. Think of your donations as gifts to bestow, not castoffs to be rid of. It’s awful to think of people feeling like they got scraps someone else just didn’t want. Everyone deserves dignity with their meals.

2. If you’d rather give money to a food bank, that’s also great since they buy food in bulk and know what items are most wanted/needed!

3. Not everyone has access to appliances like stoves or microwaves or hot plates so if you can donate items that don’t need to be heated up, that would also be greatly appreciated!
