the crazy thing about doctor who is that it really is the best show ever for 30 seconds at a time. you never know when those 30 seconds will be. sometimes they happen multiple times in a single episode and sometimes you wait years and years and years. and the best part is those 30 seconds are surrounded by the worst show ever, which is also doctor who

normally im not affected by seeing dead wild animals it's a part of the cycle of life after all but seeing a dead baby seagull that's obviously passed from unnatural causes first thing in the morning has shaken me

While I read this, I thought about my friend Ahmed. "Children in Gaza walk long, dangerous distances to fetch water due to the destruction of water and sanitation infrastructure, spending six to eight hours daily carrying heavy water loads, replacing school time with daily survival tasks." This has been Ahmed's life for years now. When the report describes the impact of malnutrition on children's bodies they are talking about his body.

In one section, the report states: "poor oral health makes it harder to eat and absorb nutrients, thus contributing to malnutrition." Ahmed (@ahmed-motaz) was born with a disability that impacts his teeth. He first started fundraising because he desperately needs expensive dental implants, which are unavailable in Gaza. It has been years and he has never saved enough to get this care, and his family can barely afford nutritious food. UNICEF ranks the Gaza Strip as “the most dangerous place in the world to be a child." These brutal conditions are even harder for disabled children. Please support Ahmed.

Like many Palestinians, tumblr staff cruelly targeted Ahmed's blog for deletion earlier this month. I am texting with him right now, and I can confirm that @ahmed-motaz is his new blog. His campaign is vetted by @gazavetters in line (#198). Please share this widely so that his followers can find him again <3

Please, I need your help. I'm suffering from severe anemia, feeling extremely dizzy and vomiting, and I'm starving because of the high price of food. I need your assistance to buy medicine and food before my condition worsens. Please don't leave me to suffer; I can't take it anymore. I need your help.

Amazing moments in Dads: my friend’s dad’s critique of Frankenstein was, “I just don’t think the author had read science fiction before.”

get a room. ok now get another room. now a few more. now add a roof and a door. yay house yay

I do actually think that the fact that Dean wore the jacket with the bloody handprint the whole time he drove up to find Sam and Jack symbolically means he did reciprocate, textually, so like………
