I was telling my friend about how years ago my sister went into labor with my nephew at a fancy hotel she was staying at with my brother in law as a mini staycation before her due date and I concluded that he is a Bajoran baby cuz she got so relaxed that he said, "Oh, is it time?"

one of those masterposts for Sudan 🇸🇩

Disclaimer: I am not Sudanese, and am in no way an expert on the ongoing crisis. Corrections, if any, are welcome.

So what's going on in Sudan? Sudan was under the rule of the military dictator Omar Al-Bashir for thirty years. He came to power through a military coup in June 1989. His rule saw extreme economic decline, repression, and conflict. In the December of 2018, a democratic revolution began that eventually overthrew the dictatorship on April 11, 2019, and saw the beginning of a military rule by militant parties SAF (Sudanese Armed Forces) and RSF (Rapid Support Forces). This unrest is, of course, funded by western governments.

On the 15th of April, 2023, fighting broke out in Khartoum between the SAF and RSF. Clashes spread across the nation of Sudan, and the civilian populace is still caught in the middle. According to UN officials, Sudan is in “one of the worst humanitarian nightmares in recent history."

There is an ongoing war in Sudan, and it's getting worse. There is a health crisis along with the humanitarian crisis as well: around 2/3rds of the population do not have access to healthcare services. Around 15-20 millions suffer from hunger. There are 70 non-operational healthcare facilities in conflict zones. Thousands killed, millions displaced, and a dramatic increase in sexual violence and rape cases.

They marketed Anyone But You terribly. My sister had to tell me it was a loose Much Ado About Nothing adaptation and I had to actually see it to know they made it all about a lesbian wedding. A movie for bitches who love Shakespeare and lesbians

There is still hope. Say it out loud. Palestine will be free. The Palestinian people will celebrate their culture and heritage with each other. We will love and be loved. Do not fall into the trap of despair.

Love my magical little fishbowl...

friends. friends. make a little fishbowl for your blog.

Here’s mine! Forest-y setting to go with my usual theme, a night sky to match my current theme, a writing desk for my stories and piles of books for all the old books I love reading. I also put my cat in there, cause he loves bothering me while I write and a glass bowl would do nothing to stop him.

I am raising money to cover wages lost, plus a bit extra for gas and any meds my insurance won't cover, while healing from top surgery. This will benefit myself, my son, and my cat, as I am the only one paying bills in my household.

Every dollar and share is helpful and appreciated!! Feel free to reply or DM if you have questions!

UPDATE: This fundraiser ends soon. I am still $1,120 from my goal. I have become more desperate to get this funded, because I won't be getting any money from work. Please consider adding whatever amount works for you. I will appreciate it.

One of my dear friends recently passed away after a years-long battle with illness. Her husband, also a dear friend, is running this campaign to cover funerary expenses, including the cost of repatriating her remains to Perú, and recouping some of the expenses he incurred caring for her at home during her final days. Please support if you're able, and do share with your networks.

Angela was brilliant, wise, funny, compassionate, and had a long, rich life ahead of her. She was a person and a scholar of tremendous integrity. I'm honored to have known her.
