I loved The Saint of Bright Doors and Rakesfall is lurking near the top of my TBR pile. I've very much been looking forward to tackling it. Congratulations @Vajra.me!

Help Jamal’s family leave the war zone and rebuild their life! Hi my loves! My name is Caroline, and I created this fundraiser to help Jamal support his family as they fight to survive the genocide in Gaza, evacuate to safety, and eventually rebuild their lives f...

I survived gaza gencide, but I came out to find that everything I knew my home, my work, my city is gone.
Starting again feels impossible, but I’m trying.

If you can, please help me rebuild my life even the smallest support means the world to me.
repost = rebuild

My dearest friend set up the weekly and monthly donation options so that we can stay alive after a tent was destroyed just 100 meters away from us last night. The sand covered our faces while we were still alive.

I’m deeply depressed and can’t keep begging one by one for help anymore.

Heck yes, I can't wait! I'm a @nghivo.bsky.social evangelist. Her writing is as beautiful as it is sharp. Each installment of The Singing Hills Cycle is like opening up a box brimming with brilliant gems and strange, little, sharp edged bones. Absolute treasure.

Ceasefire doesn't mean the genocide is over, i hope you keep supporting Palestine. I documented a lot, and been through so much, and it's devastating. Please offer me any support you can. I will be so much grateful.

If I had a pawn shop I'd 100% call it The Emporium of Broken Dreams.

Alright I have a non monetary request to help someone in Gaza!

@rerogaza8.bsky.social is working on her studies and had to produce a podcast episode- so she interviewed @ssaakkhheerr2.bsky.social about his life in Gaza. Part of her grade is based on views- so give it some views!

Must have been Cray-zy.

A screenshot of a Wikipedia search result of one of the most ridiculous place names imaginable, Humpty Doo. It reads, ' Humpty Doo is a town in Australia's Northern Territory, situated just south of the Arnhem Highway, approximately 40 km from Darwin

Does Australia just...not want to be taken seriously?

I regret doing one of those three things. (It was watching Titanic.)

And now that I'm going grey I've actually stopped getting highlights. I love my witch silvers.

I am suffocating in this prison of death — this siege that tightens around our necks every single day.
I don’t want to die here like an animal trapped in a cage. I don’t want to wait for a rocket to choose my name.

I want out.

Nice hot chocolate.

Well, fuck.

A Bangladeshi lesbian friend has been issued an ultimatum on marriage by her family. She was, in the past, subject to religious conversion therapy to try to 'cure' her, and now will be married off against her will unless she can secure the funds and documents to escape.

Please help.

It may be controversial but I'm just not that into tassels.

I’m sharing a Palestinian account every day and today is Farrah. Farrah was engaged to Muhanad when the war started and they had just bought a small apartment to start their lives together. It was destroyed before they could move in. They married despite the chaos and are now just trying to survive

It's like finding out which parent your conservative family member is going to go live with after the divorce.

Can anyone please make a donation to Ruaa today?

It's pride, so what better time to do this?

Let's show them that women who would put OUR OWN RIGHTS on the market just to get a chance to bully the vulnerable do NOT represent the majority.

Not In My Name

The only difficulty I've experienced adapting to British culture is putting periods outside of quotation marks. It just feels icky.

Thersa, is there a Japanese word for the way light falls through a forest canopy and dances on the ground when the leaves move in a breeze? 'Dappled light' has never done it for me.

Not practical advice but....it's probably gained sentience by this point and my guess is it's pretty irritated. I would be if I'd been forgotten in a fridge for a decade.

Or it's so old it has become magical and you can now make potions with it.

Well, shit.

This is an obvious point, but cannot overstated. There is an enormous difference between deporting someone - where they get off a plane as a free citizen in their home country AND FUNNELING THEM INTO A BRUTAL PRISON FROM WHICH THEY HAVE NO CHANCE OF EVER EMERGING!!!

Fatima Hassouna did not deserve this. Her family did not deserve this. No human being deserves this. Say her name.

I'm so sorry Ruaa. My heart is with you and your family. :(

Thank you Becca.
