hi nitw angus
fascinated by krerdly’s slow transition from complete irony to unabashed genuineness in the fandom since chapter two’s release 😭 so excited to see what we do to the poor souls introduced to us in ch3+4
Imagine Berdly didn't just fall after the Queen fight but Kris caught him :P

Baby Ayla was born into starvation, and has struggled with malnutrition all her life. Since birth, she has faced an IOF-imposed blockade on food and the IOF’s deliberate destruction of potable water sources in Gaza. Now it is taking really its toll on her, and she has severe diarrhea.
Ayla is rapidly losing the few fluids she has in her body, and the IOF assault has made food, water, and medicine extremely scarce. For a toddler, this is absolutely life-threatening. If she cannot replenish the bodily fluids she is losing, her fragile kidneys will go into failure!!
Her widowed mother URGENTLY needs funds for medicine and saline solution. This will help replenish the fluids and vitamins that her tiny body needs to survive.
Every moment that Ayla remains sick, she gets closer and closer to kidney failure. She urgently needs your support to survive!!

My family and I haven't been able to eat bread for three days.!!! The war has intensified, the bombing has increased, and the blockade has tightened, with food shortages in Gaza increasing daily. The price of a 50kg bag of flour has reached 500 euros. This is unacceptable. Everything is getting more difficult, and the bombing doesn't stop. We need help.!!!
What's worse is that I'm seriously ill and also suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder because my previous campaign, which had raised nearly 15,000 euros to enable me to undergo my surgery, was deleted. Unfortunately, all donations were returned to their owners, and I created a new campaign, which has only raised 1,320 euros. This is a very small amount that would not allow me to travel and undergo my surgery as soon as possible. Please, you are my only hope for survival and treatment. With your donations, I will be able to remove the metal shrapnel stuck in my body and live without pain. Please, no one can bear the pain I'm suffering from!!!😭

Child's Sock from Egypt, c.250-350 CE: this colorful sock is nearly 1,700 years old
This sock was discovered during excavations in the ancient city of Oxyrhynchus. It was likely created for a child during the late Roman period, c.250-350 CE.
Similar-looking socks from late antiquity and the early Byzantine period have also been found at several other sites throughout Egypt; these socks often have colorful, striped patterns with divided toes, and they were crafted out of wool using a technique known as nålbinding.

The sock depicted above was created during the same period, and it was found in a midden heap (an ancient rubbish pit) in the city of Antinoöpolis. A multispectral imaging analysis of this sock yielded some interesting results back in 2018, as this article explains:
... analysis revealed that the sock contained seven hues of wool yarn woven together in a meticulous, stripy pattern. Just three natural, plant-based dyes—madder roots for red, woad leaves for blue and weld flowers for yellow—were used to create the different color combinations featured on the sock, according to Joanne Dyer, lead author of the study.
In the paper, she and her co-authors explain that the imaging technique also revealed how the colors were mixed to create hues of green, purple and orange: In some cases, fibers of different colors were spun together; in others, individual yarns went through multiple dye baths.
Such intricacy is pretty impressive, considering that the ancient sock is both “tiny” and “fragile."
Given its size and orientation, the researchers believe it may have been worn on a child’s left foot.

The ancient Egyptians employed a single-needle looping technique, often referred to as nålbindning, to create their socks. Notably, the approach could be used to separate the big toe and four other toes in the sock—which just may have given life to the ever-controversial socks-and-sandals trend.

done. i am finally done with exams.
Now, I'll be taking a break. I'll be offline for a few days — just need to breathe, take care of my life a little, and figure out some stuff for this summer. Vacation officially starts 1st may. I'll see you guys then.
also. story time.
I got back home after the exam — and literally 15 minutes later — had to run back to college for my Botany practical exams. They didn’t notify us, didn’t inform us, just scheduled it like it was no big deal. We showed up, and they handed us the materials right then and there and told us to study on the spot before taking the exam.
and guess what? I did. and not to brag, but… i aced it. 😂

Hi, it's future me.
so... I kind of forgot to post this. I did write it — it just somehow ended up in my drafts, and then I didn’t open tumblr for like… a week. And now I’m posting it late. Disappointed.
i hate it when i cant even write a poem about something because its too obvious. like in the airbnb i was at i guess it used to be a kids room cause you could see the imprint of one little glow in the dark star that had been missed and painted over in landlord white. like that's a poem already what's the point
Me: I don't get it. I thought I was doing a lot better than I was a few years ago. I'm like 10 times more on top of things than I used to be. How does everything feel terrible now?
The Tiny Me in OSHA-approved Hi-Vis Gear Who lives in my brain and pulls all the levers: Boss, it's the fascism. You're completely gunked up with cortisol due to the fact that your entire daily life is now underscored with a haunting awareness of the rapid erosion of your rights, dignity, and any and all social safety nets, and you're also bearing witness to the most vulnerable people immediately being persecuted. This creates a natural stress response that basically means you're going to continue having memory and organizational problems, as well as emotional imbalances.
Me: BUT I HAVE A BULLET JOURNAL AND I MEDITATE NOW.
Tiny OSHA Me: BOSS, THE FASCISM.
