I've heard it pronounced both ways, but I'd like to know the intended pronunciation, if there is one!

I'll reblog that now! I wish the fighting would stop. War doesn't help anyone.
Hello, I hope you are well. I'm very sorry to bother you, but I urgently need help.
My brother's newborn daughter suffers from lactose intolerance, causing severe weight loss, intestinal colic, and diarrhea. She urgently needs special lactose-free milk, which is expensive and scarce.
Please donate $70 to help secure this milk, necessary medications, and diapers. Every contribution, no matter how small, makes a big difference in her life.
We are struggling in Gaza due to the lack of basic necessities. Please share and donate. Thank you for your kindness and support

2. @riding-with-the-wild-hunt Here .
I contemplate the happy faces of people around me here in Ireland and reminisce about the happy normal life my family and I had before the war. A life that turned into a distant memory for us and was replaced by an unending series of horrible nightmares.
Unlike my family in Gaza, people here have access to drinking water, all types of food, electricity, and a roof over their heads. Above all, they are safe, and I cannot help but wonder if they genuinely do appreciate these blessings in their lives enough.
People seem relaxed and laughing wholeheartedly around me in Ireland. I wish I could laugh too, but I am crushed way beyond recovery on the inside. I was evacuated by my Irish college after five months of living the horrors of war in Gaza. I hope you will never know what it feels like to live in constant fear and worry and be horrified by the most sickening and scary nightmares every single night while you are far away from your family in such circumstances.
When did my people in Gaza cease to be human beings worthy and deserving of a normal life? Has it become normal now for my family in Gaza to be starved and killed while the whole world is watching the genocide? If that is the case, then you will have to excuse me if I seek every avenue to bring them to Ireland and start a new normal life like all people here around me.
I was assured by the Irish Reugee Council (IRC) and lawyers in Ireland that there is hope I can reunite with my family in Ireland. In difficult times, it is hard to see the light at the end of the tunnel. For me and my family, you are literally our light and hope for a better life.
SOS!

OMG, a manananggal would be such a cool monster for a horror movie! The idea of a monster that can split itself in half in order to hunt is so amazing and incredibly creepy at the same time! The doll looks really pretty too! I love her wings and the flowers in her hair. Do you know and specific stories about manananggals, BTW? Just asking because I love folklore and mythology and this looks so awesome!
too many ppl who know nothing about Filipino folklore n culture r talking shit about my ate. she’s based off of the manananggal, which you can compare to the European vampire, if that helps you understand it better. although, i’m reluctant to mention that becuz some ppl, who choose to be ignorant, currently hold the view that she’s just an Asian-colored vampire mishmash monster. she is not. other than the fact that she manages to exist at all, here are some details i appreciate about her.
first, she has a face that looks like my family’s. that’s my lola’s nose. that’s my mom’s birthmark. shit, those are my uncle’s cheekbones. the headpiece features jasmine, our national flower. the translucent petals are cool.
second, you can display her in two pieces, split by the torso. its not just a “cheap gimmick” you ignorant pos. at nightfall, the manananggal severs itself in two, leaving behind a vulnerable lower half while its upper half hunts for nourishment - blood, raw hearts, livers, fetuses. the red fringe represents her dangling intestines, hanging loose as she flies after ripping her body apart. the string detail is on the skirt for consistency, but also, intestines are long as fuck? why wouldn’t they also hang from the bottom, assuming they also get split in half.
while we’re on the outfit, the top is an extremely traditional (Spanish colonial, ugh) style in both fabric and shape. i have attire that looks exactly like it, minus the monster high red foil pattern. the tiny, “woven” sleeve cuffs are a nice touch. the earrings and bracelets look to be woven palm too, but aren’t as effective in plastic. the bottom half skirt is quite a bit shorter than is traditional, and the heels higher. it’s a monster high doll.
most accurate would be barefoot, tbh. but you guys would riot, and again, its a doll. actually, the shoes reference a lot from Filipino culture. the heel is a coconut tree overlooking a kubo, a one-room stilt hut built with natural materials such as bamboo and palm, and specifically made to be remade as necessary. the sole is “wooden”, also an accessible material of which some shoes were made with. it is attached by braid to what looks to be a straw strap. also not unusual for a shoe.
her fan and wings feature embroidery, and if you look closely at the latter, you will see a thin and delicate flora design in between the spider web pattern. this is extremely reminiscent of calado, a type of traditional hand embroidery akin to lace that is difficult as fuck. a dying art, btw.
i didn’t wake up looking to ride this hard for a plastic woman lmao. but if you’re gonna come for her, it better be because of the fluorescent green in her colorway and not because you don’t know what you’re talking about. honestly, a lot of Filipinos are just happy to be considered and celebrated. “wins” like this mean everything. maybe it’s not good enough for your collection, but now you know more about my culture than you would’ve gone out of your way to. and that’s good enough for me.
Reblog if you would beat up J.K Rowling with a comically large hammer given the chance.
btw the thing she couldn’t ignore was someone calling her out for saying anti-depressants/hormone therapy are only perscribed by lazy doctors
Oh, pasta FOR SURE. Garlic bread is still amazing, though!
What food do you have asexual tension with?
Hello my friend, I am sorry to send you a message and ask you to help me. This is not easy for me, but I have no solution. How difficult it is to live every night in fear and hunger. Our situation here is getting worse every day. The bombing is over our heads. My children are shivering with fear, cold, and hunger. I hope you do not ignore me. Please help me with just $50. Yesterday we were displaced for the tenth time and without anything, we fled. Now we are again without shelter, food, or anything. Please, my infant needs milk and diapers. Do not ignore me and be by my side and help me. Donate just $50. It will save my life, my children. I hope you will share my story and pray for us to stay alive 🙏🥺🙏🥺
