[& this is why, 1 of many reasons, I stopped watching USA award shows] 8 Incredible #Directors Never Nominated for an #Oscar Despite never being recognized by the #AcademyAwards, these directors’ influence is felt throughout #cinema. By Suhaib Adeel|8 hours ago www.mentalfloss.com/entertainmen...

If you have a little time, please help me. 🙏🫂 I feel helpless and worn down, doing everything I can so the light stays in my father’s eyes—so he can clearly see his grandkids’ faces. 💔😔 Even the smallest help can truly make a difference. 🤎🙏

💔 Urgent Appeal 💔 My husband is in critical condition; the infection has reached his bone. We urgently need a culture test, a wheelchair to help him move, tests, and daily bandages. Medicines are very expensive in Gaza. $500 urgently needed 🙏 Please don’t leave him alone chuffed.org/project/omsham

Urgent 🚨 After the storm, my tent was destroyed and my children and I were left in the open under the rain. My children became ill and we are extremely exhausted. I urgently need $500 to rebuild the tent and treat my children. Please help us Link support 🙏 chuffed.org/project/ahme...

My son's life is the most precious thing I have in life; I beg you not to deprive me of his life, which is in danger. I implore you to save my child's life by donating and sharing the post. My child suffers from a cancerous tumor and needs surgery to remove it.🙏🏿👇🏻 www.muslimgiving.org/mohmed0 🙏🏿

Lina is struggling to care for her family, including her severely injured husband who's at risk of amputation, her mother-in-law with bone cancer, & her sick daughters, under Israel's genocide, which has left them homeless & starving in winter. Please help them survive, Bsky deletes them constantly:

Please,the cold in the tent is deadly⛺Our tent is worn out and doesn’t protect us from wind and rain.The blankets are not enough,and my children are shivering violently from the cold🙏Help us buy tarps, blankets,and a new tent💔You are our hope,and your support could save us chuffed.org/project/omsham

They don't want peace. They want us dead.

A reminder to the news media: “conflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.

At any point you're allowed to say "this has gone too far." At any point you can say "I no longer can support this." At any point you can admit "I was wrong." Because it HAS gone too far, NO ONE should be supporting government-led executions on the street, and THIS IS WRONG.

I can draw in ink too!!

Currently just writing the odd notes and putting together with my main document. Hoping to plug in these tidbits to give the wip some real-world gravitas. #writing #shortstory #scifi #sciencefiction #BlackandPOCcharacters #queerSF #lgbtfiction #lgbtqiafiction #disability #accessibility

Howl's Moving Castle (Diana Wynne Jones): not queer but it has That. Translation State (Ann Leckie): as queer as it gets, it has That, also it's sci-fi. A Wizard of Earthsea (Ursula K. LeGuin): not queer, but the main character is black (published in 1968) and it's what HP wished it could be.

Stuff I can think of that has That: - GO, obviously - House in the Cerulean Sea - HP (except not queer, protags too young, fuck JKR) - Forever with Ioan Gruffudd (not queer but goddamn am I still bitter over a decade later that that charming show got cancelled)

I feel so picky lol but like...idk I'm looking for GO-ish mm or ff about 35+ (preferably +) yo characters, one of whom is probably plump, and it's gotta have that special Something that's hard to define (whimsy, heart, idk) And it's so fucking hard to find That

I write sapphic romantasy where an all female polycule help a woman poison her abusive cishet husband on their honeymoon to stop a nation of white supremacists from invading a diverse queernormative kingdom. And it's free! www.patreon.com/ddwardiswrit...

Journalists and children continue to get shot in Gaza. Some ceasefire... www.nbcnews.com/world/gaza/i...

The attack hits civilians gathering firewood near Kamal Adwan Hospital in northern Gaza, sources say.

Prix du meilleur dessin de presse 2025 aux Pays-Bas 🇳🇱 à Peter de Wit, pour « Gaza beach 2030 ».

Israel killed three journalists, including a CBS News contributor, the latest attacks in Gaza despite a U.S.-backed ceasefire that began in October. Israel has killed about 220 journalists in Gaza since October 2023, according to Reporters Without Borders. https://wapo.st/4r5ZmRr

When a world is broken who or what can put it back together? Obviously not Miralees, she's just an acrobat with her family troupe. Read "Dragons of the Wounded Land" #writing #📚🪐 #boost #sapphic #secondaryworld #heroines #romancelandia #monsters #fantasy #phantastik #booksky #legendary #💙…

Walked by the line to the women's just now to snap this selfie, three women in line lost their shit with "omg I love that you just did that"

How many times am I going to reread The House in the Cerulean Sea until I find another queer book I enjoy the same way, I wonder

You ever think about how T.I. and Rihanna made yodeling work in a rap song

According to J. S. Candid on YouTube, the #BlackPanther Party has BEEN BACK since 2015, currently led by General Payne/Paine. This Black Panther party is more in alignment with the original Black Panthers of 1968.

Jack Ketchum (specifically Off Season) is the king, but i'll always have a mile-wide soft spot for Skipp and Spector's THE BRIDGE. Disgusting, ambitious to a fault, incredibly gnarly and grotesque apocalyptic eco-splatter-horror.

He's 3 different colors. Does this look healthy at all to you?

I'm retracting my post about the Black Panther party of recent days... According to J. S. Candid on YouTube, the #BlackPanther Party has BEEN BACK since 2015, currently led by General Payne/Paine. This Black Panther party is more in alignment with the original Black Panthers of 1968.

If we accept this broken system, then we're complicit in its cruelty

Can’t reform this shit. Abolish ICE and hold every fascist accountable.

Gov. Janet Mills: "If they have warrants, show the warrants. In America, we don't believe in secret arrests or secret police."

Yall outside of MN need to know that observers are STILL out protecting their neighbors. Right now. They know the news and they’re still out there.

There’s a rally going on in Boston rn and they’re chanting “we’re not cold, we’re not afraid, MN taught us to be brave!” and I might cry
