Here for the party!

More rarer images of Neil, my beloved:

20 years.

I find it so beautiful that this little rat's life has been remembered with love for 20 years and will be hopefully for decades to come. Truly a marvel of the internet.

I am Inas, a mother of two young children: Muhammad, 7 years old, and Hala, 5 years old. They should have been living their childhood like all children—safe and warm in the embrace of their father. But the war has stolen that dream from us😭😭😭

Six months ago, my husband Anas, a kind-hearted man who endured a life of poverty, was killed by a random shell while on his way to work as a taxi driver. Since that tragic day, I’ve been left to carry the unbearable weight of life alone.

I held a diploma in international secretarial studies and was about to start a job to help support my family. But the war shattered not only our home but also my hopes and dreams. We’ve been displaced six times and now live in a tent that offers no shelter from the bitter cold or the ever-looming fear.

My young children face relentless hunger that weakens their fragile bodies and a cold that knows no mercy for their small hearts. Each day, their cries for warmth and food grow louder, and each day, I feel more helpless to provide them with even the basics of life💔😭😭

I appeal to your humanity, to your compassion. We need your help to survive, to find a safe shelter, and to feed my children. Your generosity could be the reason Muhammad and Hala continue to live and find hope amidst this darkness🥹

Please, help me keep the light of these innocent children from being extinguished by this cruel world

you cannot be a bigot and be a monster high fan.

you cannot be queerphobic, you cannot be racist, you cannot be sexist, you cannot be ableist and be a monster high fan.

monster high has always been and always will be about inclusivity. the creator of monster high himself, Garret Sander (the goat), is gay. a handful of characters were supposed to be queer from the very start, like Kieran Valentine and Clawdeen Wolf, but of course mattel wouldn’t allow it. but since they will now, that’s why they’re “suddenly” queer; they’re how they were meant to be all along.

it isn’t “forced diversity”, it isn’t pandering, it isn’t meaningless representation. it’s how it was always supposed to be, and it is so important and so healing to so many who grew up with MH to see. example: me! i grew up in a very anti-queer household and was obsessed with monster high, my favorite was and still is Frankie. i was overjoyed when i heard that Frankie is non-binary in G3. i’m not non-binary, i’m a binary trans man, but i see myself in them so much now. they’re just like me. it’s so wonderful to see the only thing that made me feel accepted and welcome as a kid still be a welcoming safe space for me, and i’m terribly disappointed to see how much of the (G1 specifically) fandom is so bigoted.
