Hello my friend, my name is Jaafar from North Gaza, I am 24 years old, and finally after waiting for a whole year of killing, displacement, hunger, massacres and genocide against us, the time for a ceasefire has come, thank God we are still alive after all the exhaustion, and during the next week we will return to our homes in North Gaza, which was completely destroyed, unfortunately our area was completely and brutally destroyed and we have nothing left, neither a home, nor property, nor furniture, nor clothes, nor any other clothes, I know that returning to the north will be very painful and difficult due to the lack of the necessities of life, and we will start building our lives from scratch, but we are happy for the war to end.

Please 🙏, donate to my campaign to save my family, even a small amount will help us stabilize ourselves a little, and buy some supplies 🥹, I hope that God will protect your family and friends, thank you 🥰🩵

The psychiatrist who wrote the criteria for narcissism just made an extremely important point about what’s wrong with diagnosing Trump with mental disorders

Dr. Allen Frances says in speculating about Trump’s mental health, we are doing a disservice to those who do suffer from mental illness. In a series of tweets, he explained why he doesn’t think Trump is a narcissist — and how harmful it can be for us to keep assuming that he is.

Every user on Tumblr at this point is aware of the transfem focused bans that have gone Severe in the last few days again. Or, every user that is transfem aligned or follows someone who is. Which makes me ask, how/why the hell hasn't the Tumblr staff or @photomatt addressed this at all yet, and how it's still going so hard.

It's very much not like this is the first time this has happened, it's been a prevailing issue for years on this site.

For example, back in 2022, they were made to hire a sexuality and gender bias specialist and reevaluate over 3,000 cases over their clear bias towards queer (especially transfem) users before. It is *almost* surprising how little the staff of Tumblr seem to care about their clear discrimination, after being sued before.

Tumblr is settling with NYC’s human rights agency over alleged porn ban bias

The ban allegedly affected LGBTQ users disproportionately.

It's not like this site has a large user base, or is highly profitable (an apparent 30 million dollar loss per year). So it seems that the staff is just going out on a, last minute before the site dies, transmisogynist rampage without real care about lawsuits or even just how the user base responds. I don't know how they can keep claiming it's not discrimination at this point.

Tumblr head Matt Mullenweg also assuaged users fears by confirming that the platform will not remove its chronological feed.

A more recent example was with @/predstrogen, which I think was the banning that got the most attention due to the CEO @photomatt actually commenting on the situation and increasing the amount of harassment she was getting. To the point where Matt followed Rita to Twitter to reveal all of the URLs she owned and also for him to just generally throw an embarrassing hissy fit.

Honestly this shit is just so fucking ridiculous and I hope nothing but the worst for all the people making this stuff happen to the users on this site. I couldn't care less about "ahhh she posed NSFW!! Or she posted something kind of weird or mean!!". Tumblr shouldn't be discriminating against users, and that's what they're doing.

I'm also aware of a lot of POC, specifically black users getting banned as well. So please don't forget to give attention to that. I just can't find any good articles to read, but if I find something I'll add it to the post.

I don't think there's a solution to how shit this site is being run. It would be lovely to have another platform to move to but I, personally, can't imagine a site like this that's also genuinely free of discrimination in the way it's ran.
