Memes, puns, comics, tv shows, movies, books, watching videos of cute animals and food I'll probably never do, Tumblering (?) (basically things that involve me wasting time)
TV Shows I watch:
Arrow, The Flash, Legends of Tomorrow, Supernatural, Voltron, The 100, Sherlock, Stranger Things, 13 Reasons Why... (I forgot the others
¯\_ツ_/¯)
COVID is slowly becoming a “third world” disease. While first world countries are hoarding vaccines, having doses for populations many times their size, third world countries can’t get any because pharma companies want to sell to the first world countries first. Even then, first world countries will receive them first. While rich countries recover from COVID, they will forget about the pandemic while many other countries live the absolute worst moment of the pandemic without being able to vaccinate their population.
Watch also when some first world countries finish vaccinating their populations, they will turn to third world countries and “donate” or sell surplus vaccines. People in these countries will go “Oh how sweet! The government is donating vaccines to the poorer countries <3” when it was their hoarding that led to many, many third world citizens dying before they could even get vaccinated in the first place.
african and latin american countries are also pushed by pfizer to give up sovereign assets as part of their vaccine agreement
Yo europeans, sign the fucking petition, get the european commission to lift the patents
This is not a bullshit useless change dot org petition by the way this is an actual thing with legal consequences. If this petition gets to a million signatures, the european commission HAS to examine it.
They need not only a million signatures but to pass thresholds in at least seven member states - which only Belgium has done so so far. Especially if you have Italian, Irish, or Cypriot citizenship, please sign. Sign it in general, but try to circulate if you can to anyone with those nationalities specifically.
231,195 / 1,000,000 signatures as of 10/28/21
237,730 / 1,000,000 signatures as of 11/28/21 and the Signatory Deadline(it has to be signed by this date) is January 8th, 2022.
PLEASE sign, especially if you’re from one of the countries that has not reached it’s threshold. (France, Sweden, Greece, Germany, The Netherlands, Austria…basically every country except Italy and Belgium)
Minimum thresholds must be met in at least five more countries in addition to the 1,000,000 signatures requirement.
The countries closest to reaching their minimum threshold are Ireland(89% of required signatures), France(75%), The Netherlands (75%), Spain (69%), and Cyprus (46%). If you or anyone you know have citizenship in these countries, please sign it, encourage them to sign it, and pass it forward.
If the requirements are met, the European Commission will be forced to examine this and take legal action. Real change is a possibility if enough signatures are collected.
Keeping in mind what’s happening in Afghanistan rn, I want everyone to know that the Taliban do not represent what Islam stands for. Pray for Afghanistan
I hate to do this but i need help paying for my kittens vet bill, any amount big or small would be deeply appreciated, i have until july 10th to get the money
someone likely already said it but the itch bundle for Palestine is ending in like 2 days and theyre only abt half their goal
if you wanna support a rly good cause and get 1k games, tools and other fun goodies i highly recommend it. i got gifted it myself, and if uve already bought it i 100% suggest buying it as gifts for friends esp since many of these games wont require a super powerful PC, and that could be good summer fun for someone who maybe cant otherwise get it
This is a grassroots bundle by indie devs who want to help Palestinians.
All profit from this bundle will be donated to the United Nations
Relief and Works Agency. The UNRWA has provided food assistance for over
one million Palestinians, and continues to do so in the territories
with heavy destruction. They also provide emergency mental and physical
health protection for those in the region. https://www.unrwa.org/gaza-emergency
Indie games are unique in that they can tell stories not seen in AAA
or other games. We pour our life experiences into our games and share a
piece of ourselves with the world. Palestinian game developers are no
different in this aspect, but have the added challenges of limited
access to basic services, like clean water, electricity, medical care,
and food security. They live under Israeli authority that discriminates
and subjugates Palestinians to the point of persecution and apartheid,
simply for being Palestinian. Furthermore, they develop games without
all the resources that come with being in a western hub for game
development.
Palestinian game developer Rasheed Abueideh did exactly that when he
made Liyla and the Shadows of War, which tells a story of a little girl
who lives in Gaza during the 2014 war, in which 30% of civilian
casualties were children. Liyla and the Shadows of War was showcased at
IndieCade and A MAZE and earned numerous award nominations, including a
win in Excellence in Storytelling at the International Mobile Gaming
Awards Middle East/North Africa.
This bundle is pay-what-you-want (above $5 U.S. dollars) for Liyla
and the Shadows of War, and you will receive hundreds of additional
games, assets, and soundtracks graciously donated by game developers and
media creators around the world for free. The bundle will run through
Friday, June 11th. Together, we can raise funds for UNRWA for food and
medical assistance for Palestinians AND highlight a game developer who
is directly affected by the cause we are rallying behind.
“Never Use Alone” is a number you can call when you have no choice but to use when you’re alone.
If you call (800) 484-3731, an operator will answer your call, and ask for your first name, location and whether you have any allergies, or medical conditions. After you’ve given us this information you can go ahead and inject your substance. After you’ve ingested the substance, we will continue communicating with you. If you do not respond after 30-45 seconds, we will notify emergency services of a possible overdose at the location you’ve given us.
We will never shame you, judge you, or preach at you to quit. If you are ready to quit though, we have treatment resources for every state in the US. Regardless if you have insurance, or not. We will do our best to connect you with the help you need. please call. We are on standby.
I really don’t mean to guilt trip anyone, but the word needs to be spread about Palestine and no major news outlets are covering it. Hundreds of Palestinians are being injured by the Israeli Occupation forces trying to defend their homes from settler violence and ethnic cleansing.
For the past month lynch mobs and anti-Palestinian pogroms have filled the streets of Jerusalem, this is an extension of over 70 years of ethnic cleansing, dispossession, occupation, settler colonialism, and murder that has effected Palestinians, and Israeli courts have ordered the eviction of 12 Palestinian families in Sheikh Jarrah and to hand over their land to Israeli settlers. If you are American, this is what your tax dollars are going to, the least you can do is spread the word and voice your support for us.
If you are able to donate, here are some donation links for Palestinians in need:
this website was made by actual palestinians. it debunks myths, answers faqs and it also explains the history of palestine in detail for those who want to learn more. spread this instead of spreading carrds!!!!
