my advice for not going insane? try to do something every weekend. go to events, you’ll love events. and not like just hang out with ur friends or go clubbing , no, make a day out of going to some local market by yourself or attend some strange convention event you’ve never heard of. i cannot stress the importance of doing random events on a friday night or saturday or a sunday at r pm for mentally ill people especially if you’re depressed and have been searching for an anchor 2 tether yourself to. attend some events now
My mom, excitedly showing off photos of my family at hanukkah, a little confused on the turn of conversation, but just excited to show off her kids:
The man doing business with my mom, who thought she was being cheap and asked her if she was celebrating hanukkah:
My step-dad, who's watching this go down from the sidelines:
YOOOOOO! TRUE GOTH BAABY

Hana-Rawhiti Kareariki Maipi-Clarke, the youngest MP in Aotearoa, starts a haka to protest the first vote on a bill reinterpreting the 1840 Treaty of Waitangi
The Amazon Rainforest is under a massive threat. I know you've heard this a million times, but this is different. There is a piece of legislation that will decimate the rights of Indigenous people of Brazil, who have been protecting the rainforest. It's unfathomably bad. It has majority support. And they're voting tomorrow. As reported here, the Bill allows "the Brazilian government to find energy resources, set up military bases, develop strategic roads, and implement commercial agriculture on protected Indigenous tribal lands, without any prior discussion with the affected peoples."
The thing you can do—and I know this sounds overly simple—is sign this petition—and tell your friends to do the same: SIGN HERE.
As reported here, the Bill allows "the Brazilian government to find energy resources, set up military bases, develop strategic roads, and implement commercial agriculture on protected Indigenous tribal lands, without any prior discussion with the affected peoples."
Again, this bill has majority support. You may be wondering, why will a petition signed by people who don't live in Brazil make any difference? Because it will give those opposing it political air cover. It will show the world is with them.
But we need a LOT of signatures.
Please do this simple act and spread the word.
Dude wtf fanfiction is amazing for all the reasons already well known, but yesterday I read one and the way colours were described was just so beautiful and amazing!!!
Anyway this is a roundabout way of saying that I’m my English language exam today when I quite literally had no ideas of what to write about, this gave me inspiration and I started describing colours!!!
Fucking amazing!!!
Anyway shoutout to the fic Gold in the Air of Summer by @chitsangenthusiast on ao3, fucking amazing
Jewish culture is having a honey cake recipe for Rosh Hashanah written out in your great-grandmother’s handwriting
[id: a handwritten recipe written in cursive on an old and stained lined page. /.End id]
I've had quite a few goyish friends who were always quick to tell me that I'm "worried over nothing" and that "people have learned since the 30's, no ones actually going to act on the antisemitic things they're saying"
Antisemitism has been on the rise. Now is not the time for minimization or denial. Listen to Jewish voices. Especially black and brown jews.
TW: antisemitism
It’s terrifying seeing how many people who Would be willing to kill me and my entire family, yet everyone around me seems to not realize just how in danger we’re in.
My great great grandmother moved to this country 110 years ago and soon I think I will leave again, my mother always says “ we built wood houses not stone because we won’t be here that long.”
Often I think people forget that Jews are a traveling people not by choice but owning little but story’s is deeply imbedded into are culture.
I think this is why the disappearance of Yiddish and Ladino is so sad to me.
So if you’re a fellow jew I’m sorry we’re in this together, and if you’re not have sympathy for your Jewish friends right now
(This post is about my experience as a Jewish person and rising antisemitism this week)
(Please don’t send this more death threats, I’m already suicidal you’ll just make me want to live more.)
(No I’m not a Zionist)
(Sorry for all this notes but this is the internet and for lack of a better term people are mean)
Sorry for spelling and grammar dysgraphia is a bitch
Unrealistic that all these magic reveal merthur au’s out there have Merlin remembering enough of his life to be able to recap the entirety of the show to Arthur without leaving anything out all in one go.
magic reveal fanfic’s:
Merlin: my magic’s for you arthur. Its only for you. *proceeds to give chronological order of events starting at ep1 all the way up to the reveal*
10x funnier and more likely:
Merlin: *months or years after the reveal* so anyway, there I was, tied to a tree, and a serkhet stings me, right?
Arthur: *spluttering* I’m sorry what
