✨hi all!✨ I hear there's a lot of energy for phone calls at the moment and I want to encourage you to keep that energy up and also call your reps to ask for a ceasefire in gaza! ❤️

Jewish Voice for Peace has a site which automatically connects you to the right people and provides a script you can use to call your members of congress if you're in the US.

Islamic Relief in the UK also has a page where you can write to your MPs to call for a ceasefire.

if anyone else has info about how to contact govt representatives in other countries please add it here as well!

US Campaign for Palestinian Rights also has resources on calling your local reps (with script) for USA residents

Download the app 5 Calls which will give you scripts and put you in direct contact with your reps (I believe USA residents only)

Here are two links (1, 2) for Aotearoa New Zealand residents to contact their MP

Reminder for United States residents who are calling: include telling them that as a voter you will not be supporting them in upcoming elections unless they take action against helping the US stop funding Israel

While calling your local reps and demanding a ceasefire is still an important effort while so many of these countries are continuing to fund and support Israel in their genocide against Palestine, it is not the most effective way to help Palestine and support those in Gaza right now.

Most importantly: do not stop talking about Palestine

for the netherlands(havent found something perfect)

https://palestina-komitee.nl/ for information and https://www.rijksoverheid.nl/contact/informatie-rijksoverheid you can contact the Ministry of Foreign Affairs

Once on IMDB I saw a “goof” which was that during a scene set in India(?), the light flicker was at the wrong frequency (in hertz). I wish I knew what movie it was to show you guys, I want to say it was some Marvel shit.

I always wondered how this person knew that. Was there an amazing Indian electrician who just instinctively felt the flicker rate was off? Did they go frame by frame and count the flickers per second?

It will never not be frustrating to me that amputees appear in fiction ALL. THE. TIME. and yet they're almost never acknowledged as such. The Cyberpunk genre is especially guilty of this: amputees and prosthetics becoming a normalised part of life are a defining part of the genre/aesthetic and yet no one even consults with any amputees about how we get represented there. Most writers in those genres don't even consider that giving your characters cybernetic arms and legs means they're an amputee.

Hey tumblr maybe instead of flagging queer people’s posts you could take down ai art of celebrities nudes which they did not consent to, from the TRENDING page.

If you do this you should kys, I don't care because these are real people who are being violated. AI is advancing to the point where the line between 'this is fake' and 'i'm not sure if its real' is getting thin and this shit is becoming more and more accessible. This can ruin someones life.

And if you think "well we can tell its fake" okay congrats you missed the point. They didn't consent to having a near perfect replica of their likeness pieced together to form your ideal image of a nude body by a program with stolen art and photographs REAL people created.

Just because you're chronically online doesn't mean other people will be able to recognize AI art btw. If we normalize this happening to celebrities, you think it wont happen to everyday people? Wake up, it's already happening and mainly to women.

I love it when a trope is referenced in the story but like not in a authorial self deprecating "oh yeah I guess we're doing that now" but in a "hel yeah I love that trope" way or just have the characters!! Have their opinion on the trope

Idk about you guys but their excitement is contagious

Sami asked me to create a post on Tumblr because he is in dire need of help from everyone here on Tumblr, whether it be a donation, a share, or a like. His family and children are in real danger because of the unjust war on Gaza. Don't forget them. You can change the painful reality of Sami and his innocent children's lives.

Here's the story:

I personally see myself as being judged as not good queer rep, as aroace who dates, "feminine" trans, "emotionless" trope, alien/robot/outsider coded, etc.

This poll is because i am often thinking about characters that are considered bad rep, but I know people in real life are LIKE THAT and identity is messy! In my opnion bad queer rep would be the ones that are shown or touched upon on screen. Idk, just wondering.

Edit: lmao i wrote hood isntead of good and tumblr didnt let me edit

tumblr should have ways to send mail to your mutuals if youre mutuals you can like send packages to tumblr and only theyll internally have your address (in my mind palace this is a perfect world and your information is well guarded by tumblr) nd then they forwarded it to the other person i want pelipper mail to be real i wanna send my friends trinkets and stuffbi collect to share memories with and also food

I agree Id like to be able to seagull mail you my magic markers I think it would be funny
