Rape allegations and charges do not ruin mens' lives because a rapist can run for president and win. An aggressively racist man can still have the support of numerous people of color, can run for president and win. A chauvinist that wants to enforce laws an restrictions on women's bodies and coined the term "grab 'em by the pussy" still has the support of women. A xenophobic man who wanted to build a wall to keep foreigners out of the country still has the support of immigrants. People still support and voted for a convicted felon, racist, rapist and scum of the earth. Despite it all, people still support and voted for Donald Trump.
saw that on twitter and it kinda happened
Hello, this is a longshot saving life call, I am Verian from Gaza. I am here to request for your support to help get my insulin, just an injection for today to save my life please I beg. I was diagnosed with Latent Autoimmune Diabetes and due to the current situation in Gaza I'm unable to get my insulin injection as a result I'm here begging for little financial support to help me purchase insulin for this week. My donation link is attached in the pinned post, I might have sent this ask to you earlier but kindly consider donating and sharing. This is the only option I have at the moment to save my life from going into a coma.

When I was a very suicidal trans activist in Texas, Benjamin Sisko saying “sure, you would [die for your people]. Dying gets you off the hook. The question is: are you willing to live for your people?” changed and possibly saved my life. It’s up there with “if we are going to be damned, let us be damned for who we really are” from Picard. Star Trek not only shows us a better world, it teaches us how to make it there
I'm not even a hermit shipper but Jimbo sounds like himbo and I think that's so funny for no reason
With all the canary and the coal miner shabang going on, I'm actually curious about Jimmy x mumbo, what even is their ship name?

Grian going "this is not what i wanted!" after scar died is just tragic
He wanted to be the one to kill him so bad and in the life serie that's basically one of the two way to say "i love you"
And yet a snail did it first
One of my friends on disc said this and I felt the need to make what I saw in my head
Sorry for the bad quality, I was in chem class when I made it
kid, when life gets you down you got three choices
Recently I've been sick, and being sick I've taken NyQuil to help me nap and sleep. What NyQuil does to me though, is give me wild dreams I can remember. This usually isn't a problem, but during one of my naps I had a dream that Marty made a podcast, and it was called "Nighttime with Martyn" and the entire thing was Martyn reading bedtime stories requested by viewers. Most of it was traditional folk tales, occasionally a true story, and sometimes Martyn would tell stories of his childhood. The weirdest part, though (if this wasn't weird enough), was when during episode 7 he said "now let me bring on my oldest friend," and all of a sudden a mound of void and stars appeared on the video. It just meowed and then I woke up. That was the entire dream, and my next one was a flower field.
