donations have been slowing down a ton and the fundraising content that jess and i have been making is getting suppressed to all hell everywhere else. BUT TUMBLR IS KILLING IT AND GOING STRONG.
keep reblogging!!! tumblr’s lack of algorithm and organic growth has renewed my faith in online solidarity and it is beautiful!
DONT WASH VEGETABLES WITH SOAP JESSICA
jess and i are raising money to help rajaa and her family get out of gaza! tell me in the tags, what is your favorite vegetable that you are NOT washing with soap?
In Yemen the death count stagnated at 15,000 until the war ended and the people were able to count their dead. Today, it's commonly accepted that over 300,000 Yemenis have been killed by war and famine. We will see a similar situation in Gaza after a ceasefire.
i’m not humble bragging when i say im pretty and passing. i’m hot as fuck.
when i brag, i brag with my whole chest, and i don’t do it often. so let me brag for a minute.
i am an excellent photographer and i worked in professional photography and videography for almost a decade and have traveled all around the world to do so. left image taken in milan, right image taken in thailand.
i hold one of the top scores on rush pinball on record. 25th in the world last i checked and i got this score five months after picking up pinball.
i try new hobbies all the time and almost always pick them up at an insane speed. on the left, first time painting since high school on the right, first acrylic pour.
after two weeks learning archery, i shot a regulation 140, better than many hobbyists do after shooting for years. image taken from my first day of shooting and shooting at full range.
i’ve dabbled in makeup art. this was after three weeks of learning how to do eye shadow.
i can sing, play guitar, bass, piano, drums, can improvise on all of them except piano and i write, produce, mix, and master all of my own music. i started learning music production four years ago from online videos and have 100s of thousands of streams and am working on a full album. this was my spotify wrapped for 2023.
other miscellaneous things
i have a masters degree
i learned how to lockpick in seven minutes
i’ve been world top 500 demon hunter in diablo 3 multiple times
i cleared slay the spire on my first run
i have cleared every song on guitar hero 2 and 3 on expert 100% (yes even through the fire and flames), and could clear more than half of them either blindfolded, left-handed, or both. (not anymore tho lol)
i taught myself how to cook, i make up my own recipes frequently, i can improvise recipes using whatever is lying around, i can guess how to make a recipe without looking it up, and many people have told me that my cooking is the best thing they’ve ever eaten.
i took a data science bootcamp and then worked at a fortune 500 tech company for several years and i also turned down job offers from google twice.
strangers regularly come up to me and tell me i’m unrealistically gorgeous and that i have the best skin they’ve ever seen.
i’ve turned down several men in the mainstream music industry who tried to slide into my dms
oh and i can dance at bars, have a good time, AND look sexy while doing it.
So, this is probably weird, but I wanted to let you know that looking into trans periods has been really affirming for my cisgender experience. I've had a non-hormonal IUD for years and spent ages being told that the hormonal fluctuations I experienced were imagined or psychosomatic. I knew that I was still menstruating but got frustrated trying to have discussions with my doctors about it.
Researching how those hormones behave in other bodies has helped me confirm that I always knew what was happening with my body. I wasn't crazy, I wasn't wrong, I wasn't imagining things, I wasn't making excuses.
Thank you for sharing your experiences with the public and for always being willing to meet sincerity in kind. It's more impactful than you may know. đź’ś
it’s not weird at all! women sharing experiences with each other is SO important!!!
periods are normal and the patriarchy wants so badly to shame us that it jresults in so many people not understanding their own bodies.
i’m so glad to share and i’m so glad that my experience was able to help you understand your own!
if you want do something that will put good into the world but are afraid of being performative or having self serving intentions, do it anyways.
the issue with self serving intentions isn't having them. we are human and it's a natural thing to do. the issue is when you ONLY do things with self serving intention and performatively.
if you want to be an ally to an oppressed people, be proactive!
start by taking action instead of worrying about being performative.
then listen and learn what they need from you as allies.
and always be willing to apologize instead of being defensive.
being afraid of doing the wrong thing will help no one. get out there, fuck up, then learn from your mistakes and do it again.
