"crochet can't be made by machines" went from being a cool fun fact to being a call to action of "so if you see mass manufactured crochet in Target, that was made by a person and they were underpaid and you should boycott it" which is true, it was made by a person, but EVERY item of clothing you own (that you did not purchase from a company using ethical labor) was made by a person being underpaid (at *best*.)
Sewing machines are operated by *people*. Knitting machines are operated by *people*. Yes lots of the process is automated but you cannot tell a machine "make me a t-shirt" or "make me a knit cardigan".
Higher awareness of fast fashion, and the true human labor and abuse behind it, is GREAT, but let's not pretend that the crochet hat in target is THE problem. Every article of clothing in target is the problem. "All clothes are made by people" is the jumping off point here into understanding this issue it's not just crochet it's the whole thing ahhhhHHHHHHHHHH

You can never bury people who have zero choice but to act on their necessary resilience since birth.

RIP, "The Man of the Hole." We never knew your date of birth or name.
And after what we did to you, we didn't deserve to.

A ceasefire resolution means next to nothing unless the U.S. stops backing Is*ael completely. Yes, this resolution is very important but the U.S. abstaining and still obsessed with the condemnation of Hamas is telling. What about the condemnation of genocide? The Palestinian hostages in prison for so long? And the fact that Netan*hu is still determined to invade?

I witnessed my first ever death of a player in DND.
we lost our wizard.
And we all almost died. Two people were on one health. I was bleeding out.
But our druid was at a frat party shotgunning beers with his boyfriend and doing drugs off his abs.
which is peak comedy.
also tragedy.

Dear artists, 
lately, a lot of people ask me what style I’m drawing / what I call my style. 
Those people are looking for prompts to feed into generators. A good friend was very helpful, linking me the perfect term to tell them. 
Tell them your style is called “gråtrunka”.

Euoro_mediterrenian for human rights monitor :
We documented random mass graves since first one which was at (AlShifa medical complex on 15th of October 2023 till the total number increased highly to reach 140 mass graves 💔
Picking hundreds of corpses is horrible , it requires urgent international action to investigate the circumstances of killing and burying these huge number of corpses and mass graves .
Some corpses were connected to urinary catheters and fracture splints and most corpses were mauled by street cats and dogs after the access to them was prohibited by occupation forces .
Harsh scenes

“nothing tastes as good as skinny feels” was like fucking detrimental to me in the early years of having an eating disorder and even now i flit back to it out of habit but you have to realize how genuinely corny and stupid that shit is. not to mention factually incorrect. MANY things taste infinitely better. have you never had warm pita
