Pictures I took coming home from camp
You no longer have an intense fascination with the main cartoon character aged 10-13
You now want to pinch their cheeks and tell them how cute they are, like a grandmother
You now wish the older cartoon sibling aged 17-20 were a real person for............reasons

IF YOUR
DO NOT SMELL LIKE
It’s not a crayon
My sort of maybe embarrassing “late to the game” thing I’m learning now is how to tell if oil has gone bad.
I feel like most other foods have obvious visual tells like mold or they end up smelling foul and obviously bad. But I was googling about oil and the internet says “if it smells like crayons, it’s bad” which would not have been my first guess. And I tested it out on my somewhat old sesame oil and was like “by god, I would describe this as smelling like crayons”
Anyway protip if your old oil smells kinda like crayons it’s probably no good 🖍️
so in case you’re about to watch a cw television show based in the southwest that’s featuring an episode based on some supposed reservation – or you’ve read anything about the situation on the navajo nation recently – i wanted to share some ways that we all can help the diné (navajo) community beyond kind-of depicting them on television.
today the navajo nation surpassed new york state and new jersey for the highest per-capita coronavirus infection rate in the country. that’s 2,304 cases per 100,000 people. 173,600 people live on the navajo nation, roughly. below are a number of organizations & community groups raising money & resources. it would mean so much to me if you’d consider supporting these communities right now - & continue to think about how you can support the indigenous communities near you, & understand the indigenous land you might currently occupy.
the navajo water project helps bring running water to navajo families without, and also helps families pay their water & electricity bills
the adopt an elder project helps feed navajo elders during the pandemic
the navajo health command operations center is the navajo nation’s only official fundraising and donation effort
rez rising is a database of native american small businesses across the southwest
the kinlani mutual aid group is a flagstaff, az based volunteer group collecting supplies
the native american relief fund operated by the native american community foundation provides emergency grants to communities for supplies & more
and a number of community-run fundraising efforts:
northern diné covid relief effort
navajo & hopi families relief fund
native student emergency fund
bluff area mutual aid - supply delivery in utah
navajo nation relief project
if you’re aware of any other legitimate fundraising efforts to help these communities, or the indigenous communities near you, please add them.
Just come to my ask box and tell me stuff about yourself. Your pets. Your favorite music. What you had for breakfast this morning. Literally anything you want, I love making new friends
I don’t know if someone has said this before, but if you live in a non-Muslim and non-English speaking country then one of the best thing you can do is to share what’s going on in Palestine in your own native language.
Palestinians/Palestinian’s activists have been sharing what’s going on in English to such a wide extent now and so are people in Muslim majority countries who were already sharing information in their country’s language/s since day one.
The next step we need to take is extend this to countries where the average person isn’t knowledgeable on the violence and crimes committed by Israel or whose local media haven’t been doing the best job reporting on what’s currently happening, if that applies to your country then please try your best to translate what’s already have been said by Palestinians/Palestinian’s activists in your native language and share it as much as possible, because right now social media is more important to the cause than any media outlet.
