Well, Since You're Here Right Now, You Can Help The Shehab Family!

Please, share this post, if you want to save someone's life!

Hello! I am from Ukraine. I live here. I stay in Ukraine, like many of my friends and my family. We can be killed every day. The war continues here.

To have a chance to live, Ukrainians need tourniquets. They can save lives! russia is shelling our cities every day and there is no safe place in Ukraine!

Thanks to you, I was able to get 3 tourniquets. I will leave 2 to my family. I can buy 3 more next week. But this is very little. I need about 10 more, and then I will take them to the local volunteers! One costs 610 hryvnias = 14,79 USD. Please, help raise funds.

Please help! Make a reblog!

Donate if you can!

Thank you so much!

what im saying is this. and yeah, if every or most of the people in this situation were also masking, that would be perfect - but it only takes a few people's decisions (improving ventilation in an area) to increase the protection of every single person who will ever be in that space. when somebody masks, they're protecting themselves, and if they're sick or contagious, they're protecting the people around them - but only when they're in that space! no matter what we do, short of highly enforced mask mandates (very, very difficult to both put into action and enforce), people are not going to mask everywhere.

and we can say they should. and we can educate people on why they should. and we will! but it is not going to make everyone mask! our energy would all collectively be better used, imo, into educating on the insane improvements in respiratory spread when you improve air circulation. that means a space can become more accessible if only half of people are masking, or even less. and it will make you, dear reader who masks, even MORE protected against illness in ALL spaces.

one consequence of transmisogyny (but not unique to it) is that it makes you into a paranoiac. take the example of the "degendering they" or like the "backhanded compliment," relatively minor interpersonal interactions that trans women increasingly feel hypervigilant about. it's probably counterproductive to assume everyone who gives you a compliment or refers to you as "they" or "this person" (<- phrase that actually revolts me a little now in this context) is doing so condescendingly, in a malicious or even just incidentally diminishing way. but also, everything about your life as a trans woman encourages you to be on alert for these kinds of cues, because if you're not paying attention to them then when the hammer drops it will hit that much harder.

Always wanted to make one of these

yes ty that's a very good meme about how european nations discriminate against romani ppl. perhaps next we could try learning about specific historical and modern manifestations of this bigotry to better understand the challenges faced b- oh. that's the same meme again. sick

trans women belong in women’s spaces. women’s spaces are made better by the presence of trans women.

lets out a single agonized bloodcurdling scream but doesnt elaborate on why and just walks it off

I feel like tariffing the "entire world" is literally just functionally sanctioning yourself

I am making this post for Dina and Ahmed Alanqar's family in Gaza @anqarfamily. They have four young children: Zeina, Eileen, Yamen, and their littlest daughter Sawsan, born just this past June. They have been multiply displaced at this point, with their homes and workplaces destroyed by Zionist bombs, and have been facing the difficulties of a scarcity and/or lack of work, schools, healthcare, food, water, and medicine, along with the everpresent threat of disease, ever since.

This fundraiser's objective is to provide them with sufficient funds so that when the opportunity arrives, they will be able to leave Gaza. Please, if you are able, donate! And regardless of your situation, make sure to share this post! I would like to see the notes on this eclipse the number of votes on the poll, unlike an unfortunately high quantity of other posts like this one, and for Dina and Ahmed to receive as many donations as possible!

This is a vetted fundraiser, listed as #264 on this speadsheet of verified fundraisers created by @/nabulsi and @/el-shab-hussein.

They are close to their goal, let's help them reach it!
