This video is a poem written by Palestinian poet @mariampoetry and sung by the amazing Gazan singer Reem from Gaza. The video is taken by Mahmoud Shamia of the destruction from the past year throughout Gaza.
My friend Mariam is fundraising again for many different Gazan artists and their families, including Reem’s, and wanted to ask for your help in gathering $8,000 to help support them this coming winter.
After a year of daily massacres, so many Palestinians in Gaza are feeling hopeless and let down by humanity. But Mariam decided to do something and I hope you can help with her mission!
So many of her friends have left their homes in a hurry leaving everything they own behind. They’re lacking basic necessities with most people becoming displaced more than ten different times. And with winter on the horizon, they need warm clothes and blankets, to help them weather the long, cold nights, and womens’ hygiene kits all of which are incredibly scarce and expensive.
Mariam has asked me to help with her efforts to collect funds for 8 of her friends and their families. We are hoping to send $1000 for each family to help them prepare for the harsh winter in tents amidst constant bombings.
Please help her out by sending money to her paypal @/miriampoet
As always, I will be updating you with funds collected every few days. We are setting the goal for $8,000 dollars. Any amount sent will help a Gazan family through this extraordinarily tough time.
The world should be outraged about what’s happening in Gaza but it’s just another Thursday. Like what sort of life are we living. I have an incredible amount of disdain for every single country in the world excluding Yemen and Sudan and i hope we all suffer for what we are letting happen in Palestine.
This breaks the record of Strom Thurmond, segregationist asshole senator from South Carolina, who spoke for over 24 hours in a futile attempt to kill the 1957 Civil Rights Act.
HE DID NOTHING. It was political grandstanding. Theater.
Stop falling for this bullshit like he actually did anything but flap his fucking useless mouth.
from my sources adjacent to tumblr–from which i can spread rumors and insider information freely because i dont give a fuck about ever working in the tech sector–im hearing this round of firings was focused on purging the senior staff, and not just from support but from the entire remaining tumblr workforce. i’m hearing there are about 25 people left.

Idgaf if you don’t want to write essays for school. I don’t care if you don’t want to write corporate emails yourself. I don’t care if you can’t draw well, I don’t care if you can’t write well, I don’t care if you just really really want to talk to your favorite fictional character but don’t want to RP with a real person because you have social anxiety or whatever
If you’re still regularly using generative ai, chatgpt or midjourney or character.ai or literally whatever the fuck, im personally blaming you when my utility prices start going up.
Why would utility prices go up because of ai?
(I am not defending the usage of generative AI/ChatGPT/Character.ai etc etc i am very much against it - I am just curious as to the correlation between using it and utility price surge please don’t come at me this is a genuine question)
ChatGPT uses 1-3 bottles of water for cooling for every query you put into it. This is FRESH WATER, which is evaporated and eventually mostly returns to the ocean, effectively removing a lot of it from our already dwindling fresh water supply on the planet. It also consumes 17 THOUSAND TIMES more electricity than the average American home.
More AI use = more data centers = power drain on local cities = gas, electricity, and water utility prices rise because all of our resources are being funneled into a machine that makes garbage
