Call me Triad

We are doing something. We’re rejecting allonormative ideals and that’s a massive thing to do. We’re actively fighting not just to help other aspecs, but to help everyone, because amatonormativity (and allonormativity as a whole) hurt everyone. Single people who want to find a partner but can’t also deserve to be able to exist.

There are so many issues with the expectation of marriage, including:

A single income isn't enough to get by anymore

Having a spouse is almost necessary under the current medical system

Society shames and pressures people who are single to get into relationships constantly

Rejecting allonormativity means fighting against these things that hurt everyone.

Diala never imagined her life would turn into a daily fight for survival.

Diala is 31 years old, from Gaza.

She graduated in Health Administration in 2017, got married in 2019, and is a mother of three:

Hisham (6 years old), Moamen (4 years old), and little Taj… her miracle baby.

Before the war, her life was stable:

a home, a car, jobs for her and her husband, and a sense of security.

But in a moment… everything was lost.

With the war, Diala lost her home, her stability, and her livelihood.

As famine spread, her health severely declined due to malnutrition, leading to kidney stones and the placement of a stent to ease her pain.

Despite everything… she was pregnant.

On May 7, 2024, Diala suffered a serious head injury, resulting in a skull fracture while she was in her fifth month of pregnancy.

Doctors faced a heartbreaking decision… her life or her baby’s.

But against all odds, Taj survived and was born—a symbol of life in the midst of suffering.

Today, Diala and her family of five live in a tent that cannot protect them from the heat of summer or the cold of winter.

And her struggle is not over…

💔 She urgently needs two surgeries:

The first: reconstructive surgery for her head injury

The second: removal of kidney stones and the stent

💔 Her family also needs at least $50 per day just to cover basic food and essential needs.

Still, Diala continues to hold on.

She is not asking for luxury… only:

a safe place, a chance for a dignified life, and a stable source of income to protect her children from hardship.

Her goal is to raise $25,000

to start over… and rebuild a life for her family.

🤍 This is not just a story… this is real life

🤲 Any support, no matter how small, can make a real difference

📢 Please share this story—someone out there may be able to help

This post talks about a new DM feature in youtube. What it fails to mention is that as part of this new feature is that when you send someone a link to a video, and they open it in the youtube app, they will see who sent them the link. Specifically, your channel name.

If your google account name is your real name, so is your channel name by default.

This means the new default behavior is that everyone you send a youtube link to will see your full name if they open it in the mobile app.

To turn this off:

Go to your youtube app settings

We are suffering from a severe shortage of food and medicine; we are suffering from acute malnutrition.

My wife is four months pregnant. Due to lack of food and medicine, she has completely lost consciousness. Her life and the baby's are in danger, and I am helpless to do anything for her.

I explained very clearly to the manager my issue with the meat section not having the price tags listed, and they claimed it was only going to be for the meat, since meat is by weight, and the price of each item is printed on the packs of each item.

Sure. That’s how they get their foot in the door. Fast forward not even two weeks, and here we are:

Bar codes. No prices, no item descriptions. No price stickers on the individual items. Heck, not even the name of the item that is SUPPOSED to be there.

No. The only way to see the price is to scan it on your phone app, which is also recording what you looked at recently, as a way of gauging what you might be looking for in the future.

So here’s what we’re gonna do gang:

Every time you go into a store that has implemented these price-less tags:

Take 1-3 items up to the cash register. Ask the cashier for the price, or hit the price check item on the self checkout, which will likely call over the attendant.

Express that you didn’t actually want it, you just couldn’t see on the shelf how much it was.

POLITELY, AND WITH A THANK YOU FOR THE PRICE CONFIRMATION, Give the items to the cashier or attendant to put back.

When they inevitably try to push the app, politely decline. If pressed for why not, say you don’t want to have to carry your phone in-hand the whole time you are shopping in order to see how much things cost. (Not having cell service or data to use the app is NOT a valid excuse, as stores already often have complimentary WiFi AND more stores will provide WiFi rather than give up on this push for surveillance pricing)

If it’s a shelf-stable item, the cashier will have to set it aside, taking up room in their limited operating space, and eventually pass it off to someone to put in a holding area to put back later. If it’s a fridge/freezer item, it might have to get tossed due to food product sale regulations.

In either case, you are making it a pain in the ass for them to have these digital bar codes. Tie up the checkouts. Give the employees more busywork that the company has to pay them to do. Hurt their bottom line having to toss the pint of ice cream you carried around in your cart for 20 minutes before giving it back to the cashier.

here's the sexual content guidelines saying nudity is ok

here's the bit from the termination email telling you you can make a new account as long as it doesn't break the same rule

here's the guidelines for what counts as explicit (not mature, aka grounds for content deletion)

here's the section telling us that you will always be able to respond to content getting flagged as explicit (lie)

here's the section where it says you will be notified when your accunt gets terminated, and that the appeals are reviewed by humans (both lies)

and by the way, posting a single thing against ToS isn't supposed to be grounds for deletion,
