Okie book lovers, what are your favorite books?

oooh, books? okay, favourite series hands down has to be Wings of Fire. that shit slaps! my favourite book overall.. for some reason i really love these two morbid books i read a while back, one of them being the Bunker Diary by Kevin Brooks, and another being Good Morning, Midnight by Lily Brooks-Dalton. my favourite Wings of Fire book has to be Moon's, just because if her unique perspective, but Darkstalker's is a CLOSE second. i also really liked the Amulet series but i never read all of it. - Peasant Artist Willow

My favourite book series is definitely Wings of Fire, it's what got me into loving books. Um.. it's hard for me to pick a favourite book.. I've read a lot of stand-alone books, but I don't remember them! If I were to try to pick out a favourite book in the Wings of Fire series, it would have to be.. uhhh... Either Glory's book, Darkstalker's book, or also Clay's book--I feel like Clay's book doesn't get enough credit. - Overlord Tofu

As a rule of thumb, don't reblog donation posts or people asking for donations unless they've been vetted and reblogged by Palestinian bloggers. We usually go to lengths to verify this shit because we know scammers have been faking to get people to send them money, using the urgency of our genocide as bait.

It's disgusting this is what we're dealing with, but people are losing money because of some truly evil people out there.

Accounts don't just randomly spring up on tumblr without gofundmes while asking for someone to help them create a campaign. Fuck out of here with that shit.

“they’re faking” I dont care. id rather give help and support and resources to people who dont need them than not give those things to those who do.

Reblog to kill it faster

if you live in any of the states below: the tax filing resource you should be looking for is IRS Direct File; you can file federal taxes directly on the IRS' website, they have a free support helpline if you're stuck, they'll also redirect you to a free preparer for state taxes, and it should work with most tax situations

if you live in any other state (or aren't eligible for Direct File) and your total income for the year was $84,000 or less, you're eligible for IRS Free File; this only covers federal taxes, and works through external providers, but will guarantee that you can use their tax preparation services for free

if you are eligible for Direct File, though, you should use it! obviously very few things about the current political situation are certain right now, but it is a genuinely good and revolutionary way to handle tax paperwork and it's a lot more likely to stick around and expand into more states if more people actually know how to access it and end up using it

Referring to the first commission in this batch; I wanted to quickly make a post as a furry friend of mine mentioned that in a commission I drew, the flag looks like the Nazi Furries flag. I didn't even know that it existed, and it was not my intention to draw that, nor was it my friends' when she commissioned me. It's just a flag from her story.

Commission Batch!

Some commissions I did for ScimitartheRaccoon and Azulberry, respectively!

I would like to see more people talk about how jobs treat disabled employees.

I used to prep, wash dishes, and cook at mellow mushroom. I had chronic pain that wasn't NEARLY as bad as it is today, but it was still very debilitating. I told my employer "i cannot stand more than 4 to 6 hours. I CANNOT do shifts longer than this due to my illness." And even though i made my boundaries VERY clear, everyday i worked it was 8 hours at the least and 10 or 12 at the most. I would go up to my manager and say "look i really need to leave, my shift is over, my chronic pain is killing me." And he'd say "we really need to here, you HAVE to push through." And so i did, and after one, ONE month of that job my crps got incredibly worse to the point where i could no longer walk my dog around the block which was .5 miles. I quit, and that was FOUR years ago, and ever since that day I HAVE BEEN BEDRIDDEN AND HAVE TO USE A WHEELCHAIR. It is my biggest regret in life.

My best friend who has seen my whole journey has recently developed undiagnosed chronic pain, and she is in the EXACT same scenario i was 4 years ago. Busting her ass at a pizza place with extreme pain that hurts her so much she tells me "im in so much pain i don't even feel like a person." She doesn't feel LUCID. And her manager and coworkers are saying the same thing "if you don't help us you will let us down, we'll be in the shit."

That job thats hurting you isn't fucking worth it. I promise you no money is worth losing all your physical abilities and never getting them back. Your coworkers and boss do not give a shit about you, so don't you dare suffer for them. They will never understand your struggle and they will never try. They truly think being understaffed is worse than whatever pain you experience. They would rather you permanently damage yourself than inconvenience them. FUCK THEM. DON'T FUCKING DO IT!
