she wag :]
I like to this off with, I have been hired at a job. If you been keeping up with my journey . I’ve been working my ass off and right now this part of waiting for a direct deposit is absolutely annoying. I told myself I would only come back for emergencies and boost other posts. However my son and I are hungry. I’m at .51 cents ☹️
I’m not too sure how much to ask for because I don’t even feel comfortable enough to write this (I had a bad day) If anybody has the funds to spare enough so we can eat. That will be amazing. It’s been such a tiring process trying to get back into the swing of working especially during this pandemic. I wish I had the funds for us :(
If you feel comfortable to donate, share and boost this post.
I’m sorry for asking for so much help. I’m just trying to make sure my son and I can live and survive. Please please please donate !!

There was an interesting thread on Bluesky dissecting Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett's relationship
TL:DR - It seems like Gaiman has been exaggerating the level of closeness between them for YEARS
Belarus has been a dictatorship for many, many years, but it was never this gruesome, this... real. In case you didn't know, Lukashenko has been in office since 1994, he changed the constitution to be able to do it. The elections have been widely known to be falsified for years, getting lukashenko 80% or 90% of votes each and every time, although his real support is estimated to be realistically around 3%, and it could be even lower now, since he still denies the very existence (existence, not seriousness!) of coronavirus.
On the 10th of august, another election took place. To no surprise, 3 of his main opponents have suddenly been arrested and disqualified from the election in the last weeks and, as you could expect, he won again with 80% of votes.
So people have gone to the streets. Lukashenko is apparently hiding in Turkey. It's hard to organize, to communicate or to even document what's happening due to all of the internet being completely down.
Rhe police is shooting people, using tear gas and actual grenades on the masses. A cop van drove into the crowd from the behind running multiple people over. There's a lot of blood, ambulances, and possible dead, (UPDATE: one confirmed dead) though it's really impossible to know, as there are little to no news sources available in Belarus, especially with the wifi being down.
The belarussian police, or militia, is an organization working not only obviously unethically, but illegally too - people are mass-arrested without an open cause, beaten, held in arrest for days, and killed. Just yesterday a man's entire arm was ripped off in some kind of explosion. (This is not confirmed, second-hand relation). Nothing quite of this scale happened since the 90s, or possibly ever in the modern history of Belarus. Belarussians are finally demanding change, and really, what can the police do against a whole nation?
I wish I could reffer everyone to some kind of petition, charity organization, anything, but the events are so current that it's hard for me to say how people from other countries could possibly help. All I can do is raise a little awareness of what's happening, so please, keep reading, keep yourselves updated and informed and don't forget belarus.
Princess Latifa of Duba (in the UAE) has recently gone missing, but not before posting a chilling video of herself, stating that “if you are watching this video, then I’m either dead, or in a really really bad situation.”
Latifa is a member of the Dubai royal family, and recently decided to defect from the authoritarian regime, in which she had previously lived as a prisoner under her own father.
She recently tried to escape on a yacht. However the yacht was apprehended by Emirates forces and Princess Latifa was taken. She has since been missing. Her fate is unclear.
Human rights groups are counting on applying pressure on the UAE government to clarify her current location. The Dubai government has responded by accusing those who have reported her missing as criminals. The validity of this statement is highly questioned.

Taras Shevchenko looks at you like... like as best as he can
[Image ID: An old format black box meme, featuring a photo of an embroidery portraying Ukrainian poet and artist Taras Shevchenko. Something is wrong with that embroidery. The eyes of a legendary poet: two burning white circles, staring at you from the black void of the sockets. Eyebrows: there are no eyebrows. His mouth is open in a silent scream, but there's only emptiness behind his lips. The embroidery's haunted. Probably, by the spirit of Taras Shevchenko himself. And he has a hangover. The text at the bottom reads: "Taras Shevchenko looks at you like... like as best as he can." /End ID]

if you think misogyny against women you don't like is acceptable, you are a misogynist.
