dr who is (apparently) redesigning this turtle from the classic series to be just a green human elf lady instead and twitter is eating it up because "no one would take the show seriously otherwise" and "the audience isn't able to empathize with something that doesn't look human". another fascinating data point in the psychology of doctor who fans.
Please cosponsor S.J.Res. 114-115 to disapprove the military sale of weapons to Israel.
My name is [your name] and I am your constituent from [your address]. I am asking the Senator to COSPONSOR S.J.RES.114-115 to disapprove of the proposed foreign military sale of certain defense articles and services to Israel. The resolution was introduced by Senator Sanders.
The US has funded over 70% of Israel's genocide of Palestinians in Gaza and < offered a nonstop flow of weapons even though there's indisputable proof of Israel blocking aid for over 1 year, and nearly 500 reports of U.S. weapons being used to kill and injure Palestinians. Over 60,000 people have died from indirect deaths due to aid blocking.
here is a copy and paste able script/message.
How casual you treat brown people being murdered. How casual you treat the torture of brown men. May the earth swallow you. One day these decades of oppression will end and Arab boys will sing.
TIME SENSITIVE QUESTION THERE'S A WASP ON THE CORNER OF MY WINDOW AND I HAVE TO OPEN THAT SAME WINDOW TO RELEASE IT WOULD IT STING ME IF I TRIED TO OPEN THE WINDOW
Posted 54 minutes ago. There's no way this fucker isn't dead.
I ship it
You ship what???
Him and The Wasp??
you know, lilia might not be dead. let's be clear, her send off was incredibly narratively satisfying and I don't think she's coming back, nor do i want to change that.
but.
as seen by jen and billy, the road gives someone what they're missing, and then kicks them off the road. lilia found what she was missing - she remembered herself. and we never see her land.
Hello 🖐
I am aya living in North Gaza with my three children, and we are facing starvation in the northern region. We have moved more than 13 times trying to find a safe place, but there is no safety anywhere.
I am asking for your help to protect my children and get us out of this imminent danger😥.
Your donations and sharing of my story will greatly contribute to our survival.🙏🙏

Mohamed, his wife Mariam and their newborn baby Ibrahim are struggling to survive in Ghazzah.
Both of them are doctors, and they've been unable to work since October 7th of last year when their home was destroyed. They now live in a tent and struggle to afford basic necessities like food and water.
Baby Ibrahim who was born during this siege cannot have formula, diapers, or clothes because of the rising prices and danger in Ghazzah.
In order to evacuate, they need to raise €45,000. So far they have only raised €20 with their last and only donation being 9 days ago.
Please do anything that you can to help them, whether that be by donating or sharing their campaign. Everything helps contribute towards their survival.
Easy to use and simple. Just share the site whenever someone asks for GFMs for Palestine.

Favorite Debo song?
there's something beautiful about the ballad that agatha and nicky wrote together, that agatha weaponised in her grief, being used, centuries later, for a mother to protect her daughter. i wonder how agatha felt about it, when she worked it out?
imagine. recurring doctor who villain but like. just a guy who’s a bit of a prick. not a time lord or whatever the hell the Toymaker is or anything. Just a generally unpleasant dude. only shows up once or twice a run. you never know when but you know they’re coming to ruin your day. Imagine.
when I was a kid I thought the weather guy on TV controlled the weather and he was just telling us what he was gonna do for the next few days. when he said "30% chance of rain Thursday" I thought he was just guessing how likely it was he'd wake up in a rain mood that morning
I feel like I need to explain. there was a whole internal logic here. there was fucking worldbuilding. I knew there were different weather people on the news in different places and I thought each one was the weather decider for their local area. I knew the word "meteorologist" and thought it was a scientist who had expertise in weather control technology. I never questioned why there was bad weather sometimes because "bad weather" was subjective, after all, I liked cloudy days and snow. and the plants need rain, right? so I figured the weather guy probably had regular meetings with local farmers and gardeners to make sure the amount of precipitation and sunlight we were getting was working out for the crops. I never spoke about this to anyone, because I thought everyone knew. at some point my parents had said "this guy on TV tells us what kind of weather we're going to have" and I misunderstood exactly one fundamental point and built out an enormous set of logical conclusions from there. this lasted from like age 3 to age 6 btw

TIME SENSITIVE: 8 DAYS TO FINISH AHMED AND HIS FAMILY'S CAMPAIGN
Thanks to everyone's efforts in donating to my friend Ahmed's campaign to escape Gaza, the daily goal is able to decrease by €5 for the next 8 days -- we only need to raise €223 per day to get them to the finish line! And, at €38,222, they only have €1,778 UNTIL THE CAMPAIGN IS COMPLETED! I can't express enough how thankful I am for the help you all have given my friend. This money will be used to save the lives of he and his wife and 3 small children, who have been forced to suffer through so much over the past year.
Please, let's continue completing these goals until it is no longer needed. Even €5 counts towards getting this done by 11/24.
€0/€223 DAILY GOAL 10/23/2024.
Verified by el-shab-hussein and nabulsi (line 68). I have also personally seen multiple modes of verification and can attest to their 100% legitimacy and to the fact that they have received multiple transfers already.
Tagging for reach under the cut.
€126/€223 DAILY GOAL. WE NEED TO RAISE €97 IN THE NEXT 6 HOURS TO HAVE ENOUGH BY 11/01/2024.
PLEASE CONTRIBUTE.
by the way this is the procedure to get out of gaza
- it costs 5k USD per adult and 2.5k USD per child
- if you want to raise this money via GOFUNDME it has to be arranged by someone who is NOT living in Palestine because GFM does not release money to Palestine. GFM also verifies every detail so it has to be accurate so you need someone who is out of Palestine and also familiar with the bureaucracy.
- once you raise the money one of your FIRST ORDER RELATIVES have to deposit this money IN CASH and IN PERSON at the Cairo offices of a company called hala. this person cannot be a Palestinian male under 40 because they are not allowed to be Egypt without a permit
- once you pay the money you have to WAIT for your names to be published by Egyptian military at the Rafah crossing and the you have 24 hours to get out
it is a very long and convoluted process that is impossible for most Palestinians who do not have contacts in other counties. Please please donate to the GFMs you see floating around because they’ve been verified and this is only the first step in an arduous journey. Once in Cairo, Palestinians aren’t allowed to work so they need money for their support also.

Help Mohammed and His Brother get a Tooth Infection Treated!
$404/$1000
Hi everyone, @supportmohammedmsiam and his brother need treatment as soon as possible for a tooth infection, which is extremely painful. Once his fund makes it to 1000 dollars I will send it to him to cover the cost. Mohammed's fund has been very slow ever since I posted it, and this is a very achievable goal. Please help him get this treated soon so he doesn't have to suffer more. His blog has already been nuked several times, and I am doing my best to keep attention on him. $1000 dollars is very doable, we can do this!
This campaign is number 198 on this list made by the team of Bees and Watermelons!
