i can’t stop thinking about how people in the global south, whose currencies are valued less than the euro/usd/pound because they too are exploited by the west, are sacrificing large amounts of money and fundraising for palestinians and sudanese, meanwhile americans are coming up with bullshit excuses for why their $20usd (there’s some people who don’t make that kind of money in an entire year!! that’s a thousand six hundred indian rupees!) won’t matter as much as their vote for the genocider’s right hand woman a few months from now.
if you live in the united states, canada, australia, the european union, the uk, or israel or the uae, god forbid,
it is your RESPONSIBILITY to do as much as you can, to donate as much as you can, so that the palestinians you see every day on your feed may have a shot at living again.
it is our countries that continue to finance these genocides and it is for the promise of our comfort that they continue to produce mass death. i don't care how this motivates you. whether you donate out of guilt over our blood soaked currencies, or out of a desire to appear moral, or because something about that individual gfm resonated with soemthing personal to you, or because you've seen people like me and my friends get angry, what matters most is that you are donating. because you are in the best position to donate, therefore it is what you must do.
it should motivate you.
here are four palestinian and two sudanese gofundmes. the sudanese gofundmes are both older and less successful.
donate to Wafaa to help her family escape genocide
donate to Siraj to help him fight to keep his home
donate to Shahed to help her save her little sisters
donate to Ahmed who is almost at his goal
donate to Sajida to help her family get to safety
donate to Hassan to help his friend escape war
(these are all verified fundraisers, they can be found on my blog!)
thinking about how the best case scenario that elphaba can imagine in the wizard and i is that finally someone will come along who will be able to change everything about her. even in her wildest dreams, she views that as her best option.
and then.
along comes galinda. who - after spending an entire night attempting to give her a makeover - settles on: ‘actually, you’re perfect just the way you are. i wouldn’t change a thing. except maybe to tuck a little piece of myself in with you, just there.’
and i just think that’s neat.
My physical reaction to hearing this and a friend telling me was crazy. I screamed and then teared up immediately and my heart was beating super fast and I was hyperventilating and i STILL can't stop smiling. I have no words to explain how much I love her
The rumors are terrible and cruel. But, honey, most of them are true. 1989 (Taylor’s Version) drops October 27 (sound familiar?). Pre-order now! 🩵🩵🩵🩵🩵

Jade: When you betrayed me, you lost something important. Kit: Wait. Not my rainbow toe socks. You wouldn't. Jade: Oh my- No, you idiot! My respect! You lost my respect! Kit: Oh, thank god *awkward silence* Kit: because I kinda REALLY need those toe socks
god's strongest soldiers are my mutuals who put up with me when I let the brainrot take over and start posting like I got possessed about something they haven't even heard of yet
Kit: I'm friendly, loyal, and energetic. Kit: I just described a dog, didn't I? Jade: Well, yeah, but people love dogs

Just a reminder in case your mind is playing tricks on you today: You matter. You’re important. You’re loved & your presence on this earth makes a difference whether you see it or not
