"Absolutely No One Comes To Save Us But Us."

btw now is the best time to keep boycotting. the israeli economy has never been weaker. don't stop the protests or the demands for divestment. keep supporting organisations like the Hind Rajab Foundation and the Accountability Archive. ofc don't stop boosting and donating to Palestinians as Gaza is still uninhabitable.

enjoy this moment but the work has not ended

You guys gotta remember that the end goal of all this political shit is to strip mine public services and funnel money into the pockets of the wealthy. Don't get distracted. "Why are they doing this what are they gonna do next?" They're gonna strip mine public services to line their own pockets. Everything is a means to that end.

sometimes you need dialogue tags and don't want to use the same four

uuuuuh deeply self indulgent transmasc utenanthy au

not genderbend/swap + would prefer you not to tag it as such. them being trans is kinda what this whole shtick hinges on, and tbh it is something that is so deeply personal. transed gender is stored in the rgu

As a former librarian I'm actually required to remind you that many libraries that subscribe to Libby are opted into a program that lets you subscribe and access magazines for free with no wait

And that this is actually a really fun, low cost way to not only access news and larger cultural magazines, but also to get free patterns for many different crafts that you can screenshot if need be and that lower the financial barriers to entry for trying new things

From my experience working in both academic and public libraries, many libraries are use it or lose it funding-- I have to say this because a lot of patrons feel guilty for how much they use the library and how often they're using it funny enough, but the worst thing you can do for libraries is not try out new features and not use what's already given to you as much as possible.

The numbers that come as a result of your patronage are how most libraries justify their continued existence in times of financial hardship, which sucks but, go check out some magazines on Libby!

💙 From Gaza: A Humble Thank You and a Hope for Tomorrow

My name is Mosab, and I am writing this as someone who has lost more than words can describe. 25 members of my family are gone. Their absence is a wound that never closes, a pain that lingers with every breath I take. Our world has been turned upside down.

But because of you, we are still here. We have reached $3,300 in donations, and I cannot express my gratitude enough. This has provided food, water, and moments of relief in a reality that feels impossible to bear.

The Struggles We Face:

💔 The weight of grief is suffocating. 🥀 Survival is our only focus.

Even a $5 donation can make a difference. If you can’t donate, please reblog this post. You never know who might see it and choose to help.

I have no words to thank you properly. Just know that every single act of kindness means the world to us.

With deep gratitude, Mosab & Family ❤️

I think people need to be more comfortable with illegalism and I’m not kidding. Of course the more legal something is, the safer and easier it is to do, but the more people who disregard the law, the harder it is to enforce. There are plenty of laws on the books that people just ignore and are never or rarely policed.

Becoming more comfortable with little illegal activities makes you more comfortable with bigger more important illegal activities. Additionally, it is crucial to build a wall of silence. Nobody talks everybody walks.

People who give out food without a permit, hold a march without a permit, grow a garden without a permit, are more likely to be people you could turn to to work with on preventing an eviction, or keeping people out of cop hands, or helping your friend Jane get crucial healthcare when it’s not legal in your state.

Communities comfortable with these acts won’t call the cops, and then nobody knows that it’s happening.

People have got to shift from both the idea that lawful = good/ illegal = bad, and that the illegality of something means that’s the end of it, and the only fight left is to make it legal again.

I don't know why all this is happening to me. Every moment I wish for death so that I can end this pain and suffering that I am going through!!!😭
