To Every Aro Reading This, You’re All Cool As Fuck

Continuing on my quest to make sure the booze I bought doesn't go to waste (seriously alcohol in Australia is so expensive), today I made a Hot Toddy using a recipe by the YouTube channel How To Drink.

I like it. Not gonna lie the whiskey taste is strong but the bitters hit you at the end and leave a nice after taste. This is definitely for people who like whiskey. If you wanna make this use a whiskey you like. This is NOT a "let's use the cheap stuff cause you won't taste the alcohol" drink.

YOU hate JK Rowling!

"I’m personally a Holocaust survivor as an infant, I barely survived.

My grandparents were killed in Aushwitz and most of my extended family were killed.

I became a Zionist; this dream of the Jewish people resurrected in their historical homeland and the barbed wire of Aushwitz being replaced by the boundaries of a Jewish state with a powerful army…and then I found out that it wasn’t exactly like that, that in order to make this Jewish dream a reality we had to visit a nightmare on the local population.

There’s no way you could have ever created a Jewish state without oppressing and expelling the local population. Jewish Israeli historians have shown without a doubt that the expulsion of Palestinians was persistent, pervasive, cruel, murderous and with deliberate intent - that’s what’s called the 'Nakba' in Arabic; the 'disaster' or the 'catastrophe'.

There’s a law that you cannot deny the Holocaust, but in Israel you’re not allowed to mention the Nakba, even though it’s at the very basis of the foundation of Israel.

I visited the Occupied Territories (West Bank) during the first intifada. I cried every day for two weeks at what I saw; the brutality of the occupation, the petty harassment, the murderousness of it, the cutting down of Palestinian olive groves, the denial of water rights, the humiliations...and this went on, and now it’s much worse than it was then. It’s the longest ethnic cleansing operation in the 20th and 21st century.

I could land in Tel Aviv tomorrow and demand citizenship but my Palestinian friend in Vancouver, who was born in Jerusalem, can’t even visit! So then you have these miserable people packed into this, horrible…people call it an 'outdoor prison', which is what it is. You don’t have to support Hamas policies to stand up for Palestinian rights, that’s a complete falsity.

You think the worse thing you can say about Hamas, multiply it by a thousand times, and it still will not meet the Israeli repression and killing and dispossession of Palestinians.

And 'anybody who criticises Israel is an anti-Semite' is simply an egregious attempt to intimidate good non-Jews who are willing to stand up for what is true."

If my Chaldea ever runs out of funds, Ritsuka would hold a fighting ring except it's just pay me 5 SQ to punch the King of Heroes in the face.

He wouldn't attack back because I slapped a command seal on him

And the lines would stretch on for miles.

Because he wouldn't want to smack King Gilgamesh of Uruk in the face.

[For legal reasons, no Gilgies were harmed (if I had any in the first place)]

New batch is here!

I did say I had more screenshots laying around, this took way longer than expected because of school again and that some of the screenshots took a bit more work to edit

This is actually how I met a dear friend of mine. I was on the train to class when some guy in a PRISON UNIFORM (in Australia the uniforms are green and look kinda like nurses scrubs) starts asking questions about me like where I'm going, which TAFE (basically trade school) I go to, what classes I take ect. He tells me he just got out of prison and he's getting out at the same station and I should get coffee with him.

At this point I'm afraid to move and my stop the still ten minutes away. Just as the guy is about to ask where I live, a girl walks and says to me "Hey! I thought you said you missed the train sillybilly. Lucy wants us to get off here and met her at the music store". So I follow her out and she grabs my hand and we run into the next train car. The guy tried to follow but didn't see us re-enter the train so he's left on the platform.

The girl turns around and says "Are you ok? That looked creepy and thought you might want help. I heard that you go to the TAFE as me so I'll walk you."

Ever since the girl, Heaven-leigh, and I have been close friends and always met up on the train to class to look out for each other.

Don't be afraid to help someone in this way. As someone who was saved by this method, I can tell you that the person you help will be so grateful that you were there.

It's not just girls being harassed by creepy guys that need this but anyone who is being harassed. Like a Muslim women being insulted for her religious beliefs, a teenage boy being bullied, an open member of the LGBTQI+ community and anyone else who is scared and cornered.

We are all human beings and no one should be afraid to go about their day. A simple conversation, even just a few words can help someone get out of at best an uncomfortable situation and at worst a life threatening situation.

GOT THE QUEEN WITH A NORMAL SCOUT TICKET

List 5 things that make you happy, then put this in the ask box for the last 10 people who reblogged something from you, learn to know your mutuals and followers !!

Where to start.......

1. Showing people around my hometown. I live in a popular tourist town and sometimes people will stop me to ask for directions. Often I'll just offer my time as a free guide and tell them about the history and culture of my town

2. Buying a new tea. I got one yesterday! It was really good!

3. Bra shopping. I know most people hate it but I love it. I'm not talking about going to target. In my town there's a lingerie Boutique run by a vivacious, East European grandmother. She'll ask about what you want in a bra, size you and will always find the perfect one! She always says "we will find you the perfect thing with the vavavoom"

4. Op shopping (I think Americans call it thift shopping?): Love getting new clothes, hate paying lots of money! I just love getting things for less then retail price

5. FLOYD the SAMOYED: my dad works at a music store and I drop off lunch to him before I go shopping for dinner. Sometimes the manager brings in his dog Floyd and I sit on the floor of the shop and pet him for hours! I can't stop smiling for the rest of the day!
