I'm a liar, don't doubt my sincerity!

I’m making this post on the behalf of Nader and his large family. Currently they are suffering in Gaza and need aid.

Nader’s father is in a battle with cancer. In Gaza, medical and other costs are extremely high due to limited infrastructure and extremely low supplies. Nader is looking to evacuate his family and get his father help, but the costs of this evacuation are incredibly expensive as well.

Anything helps.

honestly one of the top 3 best outcomes of my transition is that no one gives a shit about me anymore. I don’t get leered at in public (outside of clocking obviously), I don’t get sexually harassed by random men, I don’t get followed on the street or through malls by men, I don’t get called an ungrateful bitch for turning down a date, I don’t get sexually harassed at work or school, I don’t get random unsolicited nudes sent to me, I don’t get men being crybabies about me having a higher GPA than they do or making more money than they do, I don’t get disgusting comments about my body, I don’t get called a bitch or cunt or dyke. All the harassment and violence I have faced post-transition has always been because I’m transgender, not because I’m a man. Being invisible in public (RELATIVE TO THE WOMEN IN YOUR OWN DEMOGRAPHIC COHORTS) is an incredible privilege and I didn’t understand the sheer extent of that privilege until I transitioned. Men talk to me like a human being now! They ask for my opinion, they chat with me, they interact with me like a “normal person.” I became invisible in those interactions because I’m just treated like a person and not like a woman. If anything, transitioning made me hate men more, because it revealed to me how capable they are of talking to other people like human beings and not housemaids they can fuck and abuse.

I’m making this post on the behalf of Hamza and his family, who are currently suffering in Gaza.

In Gaza, people’s incomes have been severely impacted for the past three years. Please consider helping my friend Hamza and his family — which includes several children— afford food and proper medical care as prices continue to be high and unstable.

If two people on SSI are married, the MAXIMUM they can receive is $1,491 a month, total, for both of them. (Meaning marriage to another SSI recipient reduces your maximum income possible to $745 a person each month.)

Could you live on that?

Earlier this year, Elaf's aunt passed away after being hospitalized with a brain stem hematoma. Her time in the ICU has left Elaf's family with $4,000 in medical debt.

Elaf would like to use some of the funds raised through her family's campaign to help kickstart a small business so her family can earn money to help pay off the debt, instead of having to rely solely on aid.

Unfortunately, very few funds are left over after her family pays for their necessary expenses. If we could help get donations coming in more frequently, Elaf would be able to save for her family's business much faster.

If they are able to start their business, it would not only help with their medical debt, but also with finalizing their legal status in Egypt. The aggressive crackdowns against refugees taking place in the country have put them at risk of being deported. Many Sudanese people have already been forced to return to Sudan, including Elaf's brother.

Elaf and her family need our help. Please donate to them so they can create some financial stability to help with these urgent expenses.

Elaf is vetted #165 in the spreadsheet created @/el-shab-hussein and @/nabulsi, and is also listed on sudanfunds.com

Her fundraiser is legitimate! It has been vetted by two sources: #165 in the spreadsheet by @/el-shab-hussein and @/nabulsi. Also listed on sudanfunds.com!

Adding the fundraiser ICSD has put together for the victims and their families.

Books are in short supply in Gaza right now. Omar has been saving books during the war and taking him with them through multiple displacements. He shared his packing and transport on September 6, 2025.

Omar is on Instagram @ omar.hamad7. He has a Chuffed fundraiser as well.

Enas is not just a sad story, but a powerful example of a mother who is broken inside yet still standing for the sake of her children. May God have mercy on her husband, protect her children, heal her heart, and send her the help and relief she desperately needs.

Please consider donating to support her during this painful time. Every contribution, no matter how small, can make a real difference in the life of this mother and her orphaned children.

A local paper had some great photographs, all taken by Nicole Hester:

The day before, Rep. Justin Pearson tries to attend a Senate Committee meeting and is barred access by the Sergeant at Arms.

Lawmakers and protesters link arms as the descend the capitol steps.

Once inside the chamber, Democratic representatives continued to stand together with arms linked.

They continued standing together with arms linked as votes were cast.

Democratic representatives take a group photo protesting the redistricting.

Rep. Justin Jones burns a photo of the Confederate flag with the words, We will not go back.

And stomps the ashes.

Additional information: State lawmakers have been gunning for Pearson and Jones nearly their entire terms. Most notably, in 2023, the House expelled them for participating in a protest at the Capitol. Their districts had to have special elections to have them reinstated.

Pearson is one of the plaintiffs of a lawsuit seeking an injunction against the redistricting.

House Speaker Cameron Sexton has removed every member of the House Democratic Caucus from committees after after the protest! The lieutenant governor says he is looking for more ways to punish them.

Representative Justin Pearson adds, “Speaker of the TN House Cameron Sexton just removed me and every Democrat — and therefore every Black elected official in the state legislature from any committee we served on,” Pearson wrote on social media. “This move strips nearly 2 million Tennesseans from the representation they deserve in TN state leg.”

That's bad enough!!!!!!!! But the entire idea of needing permission from state authorities to access anything labeled mature by our friendly AI overlords is some fucking Boll shit. Die Gedenken Sind Frie baby. This is all a reaction to people getting uppity about their lowly lowly rights and is being propped up by the same bad actors tht have made life unlivable. Fuck that shit.

"Well it's only being rolled out in Brazil and UK" Yeah, to start. "Well they're being forced to do this by laws." YOu know it's always really funny when these tech giants (Or whatever you call owning tumblr dot com) get really antsy about laws considering they pick and choose which ones they abide by.
