ALL BLACK LIVES MATTER EVERYWHERE.
ZIMBABWE NEEDS YOUR HELP (please read and signal boost!) there is little to no coverage on this crisis worldwide. Rally for it just like you have for Black Lives Matter in the US, Yemen, Australian bushfires etc.

Sorry. Forgot to upload this one last week.
If you want to help people affected by the explosion, I beg of you please don't donate to petitions! The government will most likely steal it because our lebanese gov is just amazing like that 😒🙃🙃
If you do want to help please donate to the red cross. Also try and find lebanese people asking you to directly help them(kofi patreon and idk what else there is). Our houses, shops, etc... Are all shattered so we need more direct donation to be able to help.
Thankfully my house wasn't affected, but there's an artist on Instagram named Audrey (@audreyghousoub)that has put up a kofi link in one of her stories to directly help her rebuild her house. That's the only person ik who needs help (well at least with money) so it would mean a lot to help her. Edit: here's the link.
Other than that, if anyone else needs help, don't hesitate to just say it! Everyone is willing to help💕 stay safe everyone!
i don’t want to sound like some person that hates on ppl who change the skin tone or the identity of a character but like...some of the pics y’all make that make characters look “diverse” just feels wrong.
Like if you only make the angry aggressive guy or the sassy girl of the group darker.
Or if you make some japanese characters from anime darker with a mustard yellow tinge and buck teeth.
And when y’all only make trans headcanons of canonically sensitive men and strong women.
Like these things shouldn’t have to be addressed but they do. Y’all are doing more harm with your try with diversity then if you just left the character design alone.

This is very important, please do not ignore this.
Watch the video till the very end please (the end is when the explosion goes off.)
I live in Lebanon and the fiercest explosion went off in the midst of Beirut today, killing off an ungodly amount of human beings (more and more people are dying as I write this) and injuring up to 5000 people whose cases are immensely critical. Today,, at approximately 6 pm, hospitals were completely torn to shreds, people have been buried underneath fallen buildings, fires have been ignited almost everywhere, blood staining the streets in an excruciating manner, in addition to people that flew and fell to the sea due to the impact of the explosion. And it is certainly worth mentioning the millions upon millions' worth of damages what with buildings and cars and stores. Plenty of people are missing, it's an overall mess that is quite frankly very traumatizing.
What Lebanese people have been undergoing in recent times:
Lebanon has been going through a major economical decline that grows worse and worse by the day. The prices have heightened and the salaries remain the same, scarcely anyone has the capacity of affording basic needs anymore. There has been an unfolding revolution the past year, and the lebanese society has been protesting against the humiliation thrust upon our lives due to our miserable excuse for a government, and though the streets bled with thrashing, screaming citizens fighting for their utmost basic human rights, that caused mere to no change in the way things go around here, in fact, it only made it worse. We're being provided with, metaphorically, a droplet's worth of water and nearly no electricity, a pregnant woman has even passed away recently due to a heat stroke (as there were no means of cooling off)
What caused the setting off of this explosion?
The ignorance, heartlessness, and overall brutality of the government and the people in control.
A critical amount of chemicals (2700 tons of ammonium and other nitrates) were left inside a ship along the port of Beirut, and though the people in charge of this transaction were warned that heat and perspiration have the capability of destroying the whole of Lebanon in ode to a massive explosion, they refused to do anything about it and left the chemicals in there for years on end.
Up until, surprise surprise, the explosion went off and devestated Lebanon almost entirely.
I don't have much followers, and I know that this post isn't going to magically heal what is unfolding in this, priorly gorgeous, magnificent country, but I truly hope with all my heart that you find it within yours to spread awareness on this topic so that it would be more widespread,, so that Lebanon gets the aiding it deserves and the people from outer places slap the 'big bosses' awake, or at least pressure them into resigning, whatever it takes to make this place sufferable, tolerable, somewhere you can picture yourself residing in.
Lebanon is a place of infinite traditions, diversity, creativity, joy, and love. Most of the people here are open-hearted and wholesome. We all deserve far better.
My heart aches for the people that have passed away today, and I shall pray for the ones stuck in hellish suffering.
This is important.
Please help an undocumented woman rebuild her home, she has 4 grandkids that depend on her.
My community has been devastated by Hurricane Hanna on top of soaring covid cases. Contrary to what people on "Good Morning America" think, this was not a *good spot" for the hurricane to hit. Our region is often ignored by most of America but I'm asking for your help on behalf of a classmate. Any help would be appreciated, please boost if you cant donate.

A Spanish film company is gonna release this big pile of YIKES next year and well.... YIKES.
This El-Dorado rip-off is supposed to be a retelling of Spain's conquest of the Philippines... but seems to portray the colonizers as the good guys while the one king who saw right through their crap and fought back would be the bad guy.
Here's the thing. When the Spaniards came, most of the tribes welcomed them. But there was one who was suspicious. Lapu Lapu, the king of Mactan island. He distrusted the colonizers. Saw them as conqerors using the Filipinos' hospitality as their ticket in. He fought back and killed Magellan and stalled their reach to Mindanao.
Lapu Lapu was right. Once they were in, the Spaniards brought 300 years of subjugation and exploitation to the island. Yeah, sure. Filipinos had a lot of in-fighting (like every other society) before they came. But what the Spaniards did was shit on a large scale. Our culture virtually destroyed because Christianity. Priests raped a lot of women. Men were treated like second class citizens. Women were treated like slaves. Women enjoyed more freedom during the precolonial era.
I'm not one to judge a movie before it comes out. But this is worrying. Even if they stay true to history, they could credit Lapu-Lapu's heroism to the Flyn Rider knock-off in typical White Savior™️ fashion. I seriously hope I'm wrong and they do deliver and present the colonizers as the two-faced opportunists they were. But even then, I can already see some problems. Like:
After ruling us for 300 years, you'd think they'd remember what we actually look like. DEFINITELY NOT LIKE THIS!!!
Moana's right there!!! They could've copied characters off of that instead of characters from El Dorado for fuck's sake!!!! And why the hell is the king of Cebu, which is just off the coast of Mactan, PALE!!! Glutathione didn't exist back then!!!! WTF?!
My country's real suspicious about this movie. They plan to check it thoroughly before releasing it in local theaters. If necessary, ban it. I'm not gonna judge people if they choose to watch.
But please. Whatever this movie's spin is going to be, it is important to know the truth about this part of our history before going in to see it. Lapu Lapu is a hero. The Spaniards are conquerors who brought 300 years of suffering when the Filipinos let them in.
This is why I don’t tell 99% people im bisexual

French BLM protesters yelling "dirty jews" at white supremacists counter-protesters would be the height of irony if it wasn't so damn scary. Anyway DENOUNCE ANTISEMITISM IN THE BLM MOVEMENT.
As much as the ATA Law was a bad decision, though, however, it basically says Protests and Dissents are not "Terrorism" according to the Document itself that I read (I posted it here somewhere. I meticulously reviewed the law and I hope you could read it too than reading click-baiting articles), and hoping Dissents aren't actually ruled out to the list according to updated version of the law,
I think I could be proud of this government for not heeding to Trump's example of hiding statistics, reaping away medical care to LGBTs, and making the health issue a shallow political quarrel.
So yes, you are lucky to be in a country where "Conservatives" don't make posts about not wearing masks because it's a 'liberal agenda'.
Rip Riot Ribs. You were so good to us.

Really Big Coin Skrekkøgle
This is our Really Big Coin. It is big because it makes other things look small when photographed next to it. Actually, it is a 20:1 replica of the EUR 50-cent, you see it being milled out here. We needed to do quite a bit of sanding, lacquering and smudging to obtain the desired look and some climbing to get into required shooting position (you need to get up real high to take good pictures). The result is a short series of photographs, attempting to visually scale down real-sized objects.
