The infographic above (courtesy of Yalla! Let's Talk) was posted only six days ago and now Palestine is trending once again following Israel's new airstrike against the people of Gaza in the middle of the night.
Besides being a violation of the "ceasefire", which Palestinians themselves said would not resolve the core issue, this new wave of bombings is once again a reminder that a free Palestinian state cannot be achieved through lukewarm, inconsistent coverage and activism.
Here is a few resources, feel free to add more:
Build Palestine has provided a list of charitable organizations you can donate to, many of them are providing critical medical/ humanitarian aid to Gaza in particular.
The BDS Movement's Action Alerts, resource articles and images, and list of what to boycott and how to do it effectively.
A playlist of Abby Martin's Empire Files reports from Palestine
Working Class History's podcast on the history of Zionism, Settler Colonialism in Palestine, and Anti-Zionist Activism: Part 1 & Part 2
Article on how mainstream media and social media companies have targeted or marginalized support for the Palestinian cause
6.8.21. Minnesota
A DHS/CBP pilot illegally intimidates protestors by flying a helicopter feet above protestors to create a dust storm and fear of collision. CBP in collaboration with Minnesota law enforcement are fighting protestors against Line 3 on behalf of the Canadian corporation Enbridge. Enbridge, with the support of U.S. armed forces, is attempting to build an oil pipeline through Anishinaabe/Ojibwe treaty land.
Global capital is in collaboration with capitalist governments to exploit Indigenous people and land. This is not limited to the U.S. or Canada nor recent decades.

tldr: the Internet Archive/WayBack Machine is super important in term of archived content, billions of stuff are on there, and with the current event happening in the world like stated above,without this tool, it will be hard to properly document what took place. It will be easy for certain people to rewrite history. Dont let them.

Hi! I'm oakskull, also known as Matt. I am a trans man and I need $333 to get a name change, so I'm going to start taking commissions! Because I'm using a family members account to avoid using my deadname, I can only receive payment through PayPal. DM me if you're interested or have any questions.

25 years ago an unknown Chinese protester stood in front of a tank in defiance of the government. No one knows the identity of the man but he was given the nick name “Tank Man”. This is one of the most iconic photographs of the century.
Hey all, I’m in a bad situation right now, please boost this. Everything ended up piling on me, bad thing after another, and I currently need 110 dollars, soon. So I need commissions!
I recently got scammed out of ear piercings of which I thought would not cost much, but the employee who was in charge of doing said piercings did not tell me that the ones I chose were in fact real gold, and would be about $80. They didn’t even tell me the price, and my mom had to help pay for them, so she couldn’t get what she wanted. My phone bill is also due tomorrow, which is 30$. so I really need help right now!
my commissions are still open and I don’t plan on closing them - considering that I haven’t gotten a single one yet, and right now would be a really, really good time to buy them considering the problems that im currently facing! they’re very cheap - from ≈$2 to $10 - and all of my commission info is below the cut. Thank you all!

Monday, May 3rd: Hi everyone, I’m Gemma, a bi, mentally ill disaster, who’s in desperate need of help.
I didn't expect to be asking for help again so soon from my previous post, but things have unexpectedly gotten so much worse for me, and due to creditors, fees and late bills, my account is overdrawn and I'm in quite a bit of debt.
As most of you are already aware from my previous post, I have been struggling financially for quite some time due to my welfare benefits (Universal Credit) being under a review, which is due to my worsening mental health and the UK’s controversial changes to how benefits are assessed and assigned. And at the moment, I'm currently struggling to get by, as all previous donations have gone to pay off old court fees and my rent arrears. I am also still awaiting the outcome of my PIP Assessment (May 2021 at the latest)
To be quite honest, these past few months have been absolute hell for me, and with no other income, I’ve been relying on the kindness of others to get by. However, due to quite a lot of late bills, fees and rent to be paid, it’s been difficult for me to stay out of debt and it just keeps building up, and now due to avoiding creditor calls and red notices, it is at such a huge expense I can't possibly pay off on my own.
If anyone could spare any amount to help me, even if it’s just £1/$1/€1, it would literally save my life, and sharing definitely helps just as much as donations. Nobody is obligated in any way to donate if they can’t or don’t want to, I know we’re all struggling right now.
COVID is slowly becoming a "third world" disease. While first world countries are hoarding vaccines, having doses for populations many times their size, third world countries can't get any because pharma companies want to sell to the first world countries first. Even then, first world countries will receive them first. While rich countries recover from COVID, they will forget about the pandemic while many other countries live the absolute worst moment of the pandemic without being able to vaccinate their population.
the original post died out so I'll make a new one.
hi! I'm Mars and I'm a nonbinary lesbian that doesn't leave campus for another week, and I need money to get food! anything helps and rb's are greatly appreciated!!

Look, I know a good number of you are from the US and things aren't amazing there either, but my country is literally on the brink of collapse. So I'd love it if we could talk about that for a minute.
If you can't do anything else, please just read and reblog.
A second COVID wave has taken out the healthcare system. There are no more hospital beds. There's an oxygen shortage. There's a critical vaccine shortage. The Central Government has thrown its hands up and is passing the baton to the State Governments to do what they can.
There are over 16 million covid cases. A record 330,000 new cases reported yesterday - comparable to the US at its peak. 187,000 dead as of today.
There is no plan.
Mass cremations are taking place. The cremation grounds are running day and night and they are short on wood. People are watching their loved ones die while waiting for a hospital bed, and then they're unable to give them the proper burial rights.
Hospitals are overwhelmed. Patients are being confined, two to a bed. They're the lucky ones.
We are on the verge of people dying in the streets.
This is the second-most populous country in the world. The largest democracy. A country that encapsulates over 15,000 years of recorded human history and has endured everything from famine to invasion to colonisation.
We might be at the end. This might be the thing that does us in.
People are dying.
People are dying.
People are dying and there is no plan.
More good news? Variants are popping up. A double mutation strain has shown up. It is resistant to current vaccines. This will not go away. This is the devastation they warned of when the anti-maskers were out protesting the minor inconvenience of covering their face in public.
My country is on the verge of an emergency state. Our government has failed us. This is as dire a situation as it ever could be.
Look. I don't do much with my life. I write fics, some of you have read them and that's pretty much it. I spend my days with my head in the clouds because that's where I like to be.
But two days ago, my grandmother tested positive, had to be taken to hospital and the ambulance caught fire.
She barely made it to the urgent care she needs.
So, here I am, using whatever meager platform I have to cobble this request together. Because I have to do something.
If you can, donate.
Or spread the word.
Help. Please.
Ik I dont have a large following, like. at all. but I feel like it's important to do this.
if this is on your dash, dont feel pressured to reblog it if you dont want to.
Reblog this when it’s on your dash. You will save someone’s life.

ok so I'm alive again to those of you who look at these (cause wow there are some people out there)
and you finally get so see something other than Mangle
speaking of, I changed her look a bit
I'll make this cool tomorrow
look at that! she has legs, w o w
oof shes broken
thing is, for whatever reason her endoskeleton can just keep stretching for a long time so she just leaves her lower half behind when she goes around cause it's hard to balance with her skinny endo legs and her tail danglin around
also she was originally supposed to have a fox tail but for some reason she got a poodle tail and the excess endo was just... pushed back into her body?
Idk what's up with me I'm high or something
If you were curious about how Mangle looked before she became the take-apart-and-put-back-together attraction, then here she is
I'm working on a broken Mangle ref so you can see her full body
wow it has very slight shading now yay
it should have before but I guess the software hates me uwu
