🤸 Welcome To Marine Facts With Bagel: Part 2

I got an ask from that account just today, and I'm so glad I looked into it before even thinking of sharing the donation link, and very thankful for the people who look into this kind of stuff and call out the scammers

It is terrible that there are people who would use this terrible situation for their own selfish gain

please be cautious when receiving asks, especially those asking for donations

I'm Tasneem Masud from Gaza. Am sorry for sending you this request without your permission. My house was destroyed in the war, and my family lost everything. We've been displaced multiple times, but there's no safe place here. I'm battling Type 1 Diabetes and can't afford insulin, and my mother needs treatment for kidney failure outside Gaza. Any donation, no matter how small, can help us survive and get my mother the care she needs. A friend outside Gaza is helping with the donation program. Please reach out if you need more details. Please donate using the link in my pinned post. Thank you ❤️

This ask is a scam. Report and block.

I don’t post much on here so I thought I’d just show the costume I wore to a renaissance faire yesterday

Me today every time I move wrong or something idk: 😐 ow my back 😐

like that AAC let me use picture and text also like AAC let me see picture that go with text dont like AAC not showing me where some pictures are on board

(Used default AAC board and not current custom one)

Imma use this as an opportunity to talk about one of my favorite creatures from Celtic mythology: the kelpie

(All of this is copied and pasted from my notes app 😇)

Now the kelpie is a shapeshifting water spirit that is usually found near like streams and rivers and I think other bodies of fresh water; it usually takes the form of a horse but is capable of taking on other shapes such as that of an old woman or a man. The thing that gives the kelpie’s identity away is the fact that the kelpie is perpetually wet and cold with waterweeds in its hair or mane. When in horse form the kelpie is known for luring weary travelers to ride it; once they get on its back the kelpie then takes off into the nearest body of water, the rider, who is now stuck to the kelpie, is forced underwater by the kelpie and eventually end up drowning, after the victim is dead the kelpie eats them. If a victim ends up on the back of a kelpie one way they can prevent their death is to grab its bridle, this essentially gives the rider control.

I may or may not add more stuff to this though not specifically kelpie or folklore based, that or I might just do so on my page in general

Please info dump on this post!!

I know a lot of times people autistic/neurodivergent people feel like they have to apologize for their interests and I want to help change that.

I genuinely want to hear about your interests! I want to hear the "fun facts" and the lore of really specific media. Don't shy away from including details, you can write out a whole essay and I'll read every word. Just share about something you like unapologetically!

I’ve been reblogging a lot of campaigns(?) (idk if that’s the word) lately as I’ve gotten a lot of asks to do so

This is just to say that in the future I’ll likely be sharing in other ways so if you asked me to share or donate your campaign(?) and you don’t see it reblogged on my page it isn’t me ignoring it or anything it’s most likely I shared it elsewhere

Mother octopuses will not eat or sleep in order to protect her eggs until they hatch which can take anywhere from 50 days to 7 months depending on the temperature of the water

Bagel out 🤸

(Granted it started bothering me before I got to class, but my point still stands)
