sometimes merely existing in the world as a trans woman with principles makes me feel like i'm going insane. what do you mean people think prisons are a good thing. what do you mean diverting from monogamy is considered ludicrous. what do you mean people think one's nature is unchangeable. what is considered 'normal' by the overwhelming majority of people is fucking topsy-turvy land to me. i dont understand it at all

melodies-stereo

we're all really feeling this one, huh?

Incredible that this article is a push notification for the whole of the UK.

How about ‘It was never coming home.’

A small hidden fact here is I also don’t give a shit about Argentina who I also want to lose because Egypt should have beaten them and they had the easiest ride in the group stages.

I believe the Falklands should now be transferred to Egypt, and Egypt should build a giant Sphinx that is giving the middle finger to both.

It *is* a problem that charismatic species are often focused on for conservation at the expense of less charismatic but important species, but threatened species that are the subject of a lot of public outreach and education are also typically strategically selected.

I suspect that monarch butterflies are an example of this. Milkweed is a highly valuable plant for pollinators and a host plant for like. 400+ insect species. Getting people to plant it to save monarchs is funny because you're essentially finessing people into saving a ton of other insects that they wouldn't ordinarily care about

"Save the bees" isn't misguided, it's just the version of the truth you would tell a 5 year old. If a small kid asks about the colors of the rainbow you don't start explaining that visible light has wavelengths of 400-700 nanometers

A lot of people don't even know that there are different types of bees. things like planting native flowers, stopping using insecticides, etc, benefit all bees and all insects generally

ALSO

it's actually a GOOD thing to have lots of conservation efforts focusing on "Charismatic megafauna," especially apex predators

Because big animals like tigers need a LOT of space

So creating a preserve to save tigers...saves thousands of other species, because the tigers need miles and miles of habitat to live on, and that habitat needs to be healthy to support the tigers

They're called "umbrella species" and they're a great thing.

DON'T LET POVERTY DECIDE WHETHER MY BABY LIVES OR DIES TODAY PLEASE.

Today, I watched baby Qais stare silently at other children playing nearby. He tried to stand and follow them, but pain forced him back to the ground. He lowered his head, and I watched my child's smile disappear.

savee-baby

He did not cry. He only looked at me with eyes asking a question I could not answer: "Mama, when will I be able to walk and play again?" That question shattered my heart more than anything else.

savee-baby

I have nothing left except this desperate plea. I am begging you as a mother whose child still dreams of walking without pain. Please donate today and help give baby Qais the chance to smile, walk, and live again.

Please donate now Gofundme

savee-baby

I am begging you as a persecuted mother in Gaza, watching my baby bleed in front of me, unable to stop it. Please donate now and help me save his life before it’s too late.
