Raindove is still fundraising to get as many people out of Rafah as quickly as possible while the tanks are encroaching on Rafah. The terrorist zionist forces are going to try to do as much damage as possible. They're about 3k away from their initial goal. They don't have much more time. They've already done so much to help Ghazzawiyeh, they can do more with your help.

checking their ig stories tonight (02/11/24) it seems they are a bit over halfway to their goal of being able to evacuate all 50 cases on their list. they are hopeful they can begin evacuations tomorrow morning (not sure if they are referring to tomorrow as in the 12th or 13th, since it is already the 12th in gaza.) please share far and wide.

they also have a gfm set up by one of their team members if you are uncomfortable donating via the options above. https://www.gofundme.com/f/make-an-immediate-impact-to-save-gzan-lives?fbclid=PAAaajpj5Dt6dVONQFspjtgyvutWRMvEiqDU0mRQcy8-8VplW9BsAJ8yGKKbY_aem_Ae_7FaNZGd__EHIoK431qgdhYV6f-vdKbFmc6fjDMVJv-x5HCy1yHqz5SsYhCwsPJSg

*"stress dream" = dreams you get when under large amounts of stress or anxiety irl, that may or may not relate to your current situation irl.

Dreaming that I have pets I don't have in real life, and since I don't realize I'm dreaming yet I think I must have just forgotten about them, so logic dictates they would be hideously neglected, so the dream runs with that realization and decides I've got starving rotting suffering animals tucked away in tiny cages in the fucking kitchen cupboards or the trunk of the car or just wherever.

Every time I see this I lose my marbles I love it so much. "For some reason I yelled who is in here as I was falling" is the point where my soul leaves my body. God I love.

A surprising article to find on the Huffington post. I think, especially towards the end, there's still a saturation of healthism and diet talk (just of the "clean eating" variety), but the information about weight discrimination is absolutely on point, especially within the medical field ignoring decades of research.

Not only do we know that weight loss isn't sustainable or possible, we also know that weight discrimination kills, in a myriad of ways. If you actually care about "health" then start unlearning your weight bias NOW and realize that fat people are just people who are a different shape.

And this article doesn't even touch on "the obesity paradox"(the fact that fat people survive heart attacks and injuries BETTER THAN thin people) or the fact that dieting, especially "yo-yo dieting," is a better predictor for heart disease than weight, and that many of the fat people who have cardiovascular diseases have a long history of dieting that (understandably) didn't work.

encouraged to rb but fatphobes will just be blocked.

Michael Hobbes is an excellent journalist and he continues to advocate for body neutrality and fat acceptance! He currently cohosts a podcast with the equally fantastic Aubrey Gordon (@/yrfatfriend on twitter, author of the books What We Don't Talk About When We Talk About Fat and "You Just Need to Lose Weight" and 19 Other Myths About Fat People) . It's called Maintenance Phase and is available on all podcasting sites and apps. The show centers on dispelling myths about the wellness/fitness/weight loss industry and how it harms people of all sizes (but especially fat people).

Michael is also one of the original cofounders of You're Wrong About, another amazing podcast - one of their earlier episodes focused on busting the myths surrounding "The Obesity Epidemic" and it's a great on-ramp for anyone interested in learning more about the subject. You can listen to it here!

i really love when a character, calmly and completely earnestly, is like i’m not important, i’m no one really, just a blade that people use and throw away. no one remembers me for long after i leave their life. and then you look at the evidence and it turns out that every person who meets them becomes permanently obsessed with them, for better and for worse, and the character has somehow completely missed this fact

THIS SHOW IS SO PURE!

It’s worth noting that Kenneth spent the entire episode making the game (and the subsequent fight) as inclusive as possible for JJ and his disabled friends (all of whom were played by disabled actors/actresses).

Of course I had to show the best part:
