the most compelling thing about the october 7 exhibit is the merch they're selling

people who follow this blog (first of all: WHY?) know my deep affection for fascist merch. mma lifestyle clothing brands. teas. seasoning. soap. now you can visit a burnt up car (who burnt the car? uhhhh hamas of course DON'T ASK QUESTIONS) and buy a bucket hat to show your love of america's favorite military base/nation of genocidal spoiled children.

Wow, you guys are dumb victimblaming piles of trash

mad because you didn't get your commemorative mass violence bucket hat huh

the ceo of boeing has just admitted to killing whistleblowers - "it happens" he says

June 20, 2024 - A protester takes on the role of mobile eyewash station to deal with police tear gas during a demonstration against proposed tax reforms in Nairobi, Kenya. [video]

So that it’s easier to digest:

Proposals to defund the police

Police Household: 49.2% Support

Non-Police Household: 30% Support

Proposals to dismantle the police

Police Household: 52.2% Support

Non-Police Household: 30.1% Support

Proposals to redirect money from LAPD budget

Police Household: 63.7% Support

Non-Police Household: 50.6% Support

TL;DR: Cop Households are more anti-cop than non-cop households, and they’re the ones who have to live with cops and deal with cops daily.

While we continue to donate to personal evacuation funds, I think it is crucial to keep in mind that these individuals as well as millions more in Gaza are currently actively in need of basic necessities like food, water, shelter, and medical care. Keeping this in mind, and recognising that there is no way to know when the border crossing with Egypt will reopen, I think our attention should also be on raising funds for organisations currently on the ground who will have the widest impact on the lives of Palestinians who are still enduring the genocide in Gaza.

Below are some verified donation links of organisations that are currently providing assistance for the people in Gaza directly:

Food, water, and shelter

Taawon has launched a campaign to provide support in Gaza through food parcels, shopping vouchers, fresh produce, water bottles and shelter tents.

Watermelon Relief is a project initiated and implemented by a group of activists in Gaza, who work to provide aid to displaced families in Gaza through meals, support and activities.

World Food Programme (WFP) managed to provide assistance to more than 1 million people in Gaza in May by delivering food in shelters, makeshift camps and shops.

Life for Gaza is an initiative through which the Municipality of Gaza aims to provide basic necessities for the people of Gaza such as water projects, waste collection and the reconstruction of roads.

Arab Group for the Protection of Nature (APN) is working to plant farmlands in Gaza through their "Revive Gaza Farmlands" project, through which they had already started planting vegetables, fruits and leafy greens in Gaza.

Purchasing eSIMs is one of the only remaining ways to keep Gazans connected with the outside world, to get their stories out or even enable them to call for help after Israeli strikes.

The Sameer Project is a donation based aid initiative that provides tents, cash aid, diapers and formula for displaced families in Gaza.

Care For Gaza is an organisation that works to provide essential aid such as food packages and cash to deliver to displaced families in Gaza.

Palestine Children's Relief Fund, through their "Gaza Relief and Recovery" campaign, plan to provide essential medical supplies and treatments, as well as food and clean water.

Mutual Aid for the People of Gaza is a fundraiser managed by Mona in Gaza, who personally purchases and distributes basic supplies including food parcels to families in Gaza.

Help Gaza Children is another grassroots effort operating on the ground in Gaza to support families with food, water and clothing.

Medical care

Medical Aid for Palestine (MAP) provides medical supplies and supports healthcare services in Gaza.

Gaza Wound Care is a medical team in a tent in Nuseirat, providing care to children and supporting pregnant women.

June 21, 2024 - Namibia's high court has declared the "sodomy law" that criminalised gay sex unconstitutional!

lmao it’s real

June 24, 1922 - Patrolman William Deans was kicked in the nuts so hard that he died. That’s 102 slutty, slutty years ago today!

So I see you all are exhausted by streaming services effectively recreating cable. I see you’re all tired of ads. Pirating is a great alternative, but I have another fantastic option for you all!

I live in Seattle. And in Seattle we have America’s largest physical media store, Scarecrow Video. They are a non-profit that has pretty much any film or tv show you can imagine. Like, everything. So much so that one of our local cinemas does a program with them called “Unstreamable” where they show a film from Scarecrow’a archive that you can’t access anywhere online. It’s a bit overwhelming to go to their store, which is two levels of every program under the sun.

ANYWAY, I bring this up because they recently started a Rent-by-Mail program. It’s pretty similar to what Netflix used to do. You can rent up to six titles (barring their super rare stuff and pornos) and they will ship it to you, then you return it in the included pre-paid envelope.

Why does this rock? Sure, you still have to pay money, BUT you are supporting a non-profit that is dedicated to preserving media instead of some corporation looking for endless profit. They can also expand your palette with their vast selection. And if you have a favorite piece of media, you never have to worry about it disappearing! All their stuff is there in perpetuity.

So this is all to say, now that Scarecrow has expanded their reach beyond the Greater Seattle Area, I implore you to check them out. If you don’t want to rent right now, the could always use donations to keep them afloat.

You can check out their catalogue HERE!

I've been here!! But holy shit a rent by mail service. Like how Netflix started.

Here in Portland we have Movie Madness which isn't physically as massive but it is very similar and doubles as a prop museum, with heavy focus on sci fi and horror!

They have an entire Bigfoot section, because Seattle

"Laios is a furry" isn't even like. Funny anymore. Its just a reasonable reading of the text. Especially after reading through the ending it just feels factual that if he had the concepts in front of him and the opportunity to participate in the Fandom he would absolutely be a furry. My man is so dissatisfied with his humanity to the point of identifying with the monsters he fights. AND he's autistic. It only makes sense.

He's got the joyful whimsy AND the internal rage. A love for reasoning out animal biology. Give him a drawing tablet and access to furaffinity he'll be making 100k/yr on patreon before long
