Look what happened to me in this devastating war!!!! Our house was bombed while my family and I were inside, which caused me to be injured by shrapnel from the explosion. Five pieces of iron shrapnel entered my body and are still stuck there. I was involved in a serious car accident that severed the tendons in my feet and I am unable to move!!!!!đ
Urgent appeal for help for my family in repairing the tent to face the winter and the harsh rains and to obtain their food.

THIS. THIS. THIS IS WHAT IVE BEEN TRYING TO ARGUE SINCE. ZUTARA STANS WILL BE CLAIMING THAT AANG WAS WEAK AND SHOULD HAVE KILLED OZAI WITHOUT UNDERSTANDING HIS CHARACTER AND MOTIVES. ESPECIALLY THE CULTURAL CONTEXT OF WHO HE IS AND HOW IT WOULD AFFECT HIM.
Itâs time for people in the fanbase to finally accept that Aang was in complete control of the avatar state in that battle with Ozai. He was furious and his rage is clear as day, and he had every right to be. Itâs tired to see people crediting Aangâs anger to Kyoshi or whatever all the time. The jokes are funny, but not here, not in this battle.
Aang enters the avatar state right after Ozai says this to him: âYouâre weak, just like the rest of your people. They did not deserve to exist in this world, in my world. Prepare to join themâprepare to die.â
Aang reaches out from under those rocks and grabs Ozai, and then when Ozai tries to burn his face in the face place he burned his own son, Aang smacks his hand away and then blasts him into a rock pillar with airbending, the first element he uses against him once in the avatar state is the same element Ozai just called weak. Thereâs a reason Aang surrounds himself with an air bubble, and thereâs a reason Aangâs airbending is so violent and unrelenting in this fight. He literally airbends so violently that he erodes a rock pillar all the way through in like 2 seconds. Itâs a blatant display of the power airbending actually possesses, a big fuck you to Ozai who starts running away like a coward.
Aang is coming face to face with a man whose family line is directly responsible for wiping out his entire race of people, his entire culture. They took everything from him. He had nothing but Appa and the clothes on his back and his glider. That was it. That was all that was left of their genocide, a genocide justified by the view that Air Nomads were undeserving of life, that they were the weakest of all the nations. Imagine how full of rage he must have been. And still, he does not kill him. Not because he canât, but because he wonât let the Fire Nation complete their genocide against the Air Nomads, he wonât allow himself to be robbed of his own culture, a culture that exists through him only, now. I feel like people really just donât understand Aangâs character, and they definitely never give him the credit or praise he deserves.
The tent shakes as if you were in a ship moving on a crashing wave of sand
Your roof is clouds and rain An earthquake hits everything around you, even your heart
You open your eyes every time you steal a few minutes of sleep to make sure the tent roof is still in place
Suddenly, the nylon walls attack you
The tent fell on my family in an unforgettable scene. The tent fell and humanity and mercy fell in this unjust world.
We are now appealing to people with kind hearts to help us obtain a large tent that will protect us from the harsh winter cold and the danger of rainwater.
Farah received a severe head injury after her home was bombed by the occupation last year. It resulted in a fractured skull and brain bleeding, which left her disabled for several months. To continue the treatment of her wound, she needs to evacuate outside of Gaza. However, this is very expensive, and her family is large. They cannot work due to the invasion, and have no way of raising the funds to pay evacuation costs, or to support themselves until evacuation is possible.
Farahâs family has started a GFM campaign, but progress is very slow. Total donations up to now equal less than 1% of their goal, despite being open since April! They will not be able to evacuate, or to survive in the mean time, without your help.
Please share Farahâs campaign by copy-pasting this link across all your social media pages. Reblogging this post and the posts on Farahâs blog @farahyounis is also a huge help.
Please help Farah and her family survive and evacuate to safety!
Thank youâ€ïž

Death to whoever voted for that white man storm wasn't called a goddess so that you can choose the white billionaire
Now that I have your attention, I would like to call your attention to @shareeffamily campaign for their infant children. They are not in Palestine/Gaza, instead they are in Egypt. However due to their status as refugees, they aren't allowed to work. One of their children, their son Ahmed was born with two holes in his heart and they need funds to pay for his treatment. So far only âŹ1,064 out of âŹ50,000 has been raised.
Please reblog this for not only larger sample size but to spread their campaign to those who can donate.

Decency towards others, especially service workers, should be the bare minimum.
When boarding buses, or any sort of public transportation where you have to walk past a driver to board, always smile at and greet the driver as you're boarding.
It doesn't waste anyone's time, yours or the drivers, to smile and greet the driver, as chances are you probably have to pay or scan your pass which is going to take a second or two, about the amount of time it takes to smile and greet the driver.
When we don't look at or acknowledge the driver at all, this can make the driver feel dehumanized to not be acknowledged by other human beings all day. Being a bus driver is a difficult job, they have to do customer service AND deal with traffic all day. Bus drivers also face a lot of burn out because they are often treated poorly. The least you can do is humanize them by smiling at them and greeting them.
