Hurray! AO3 donation page is back up
Please reblog to share the news
If the recent distributed-denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks helped you realise, perhaps yet again, how much you value this well-crafted platform sustained by a dedicated team of volunteers so you can access your faves among the 11 million original works of fiction, NOW is a wonderful time to show your gratitude in one of two practical ways. Or both! Both is good.

Emotions. Attachment issues. Extremely clingy and needy. Would rather gnaw off my own arm that irl admit it. The distance and isolation. The. AHHHHHH insufferability of it all

How many things do you think need to be set on fire to disrupt capitalism enough to create a livable society? Asking for a friend

My partner and I watched this past night and were really struck by how bleak this segment felt. Like LWT does not shy away from horrible shit, but something about this piece really got to us. To the point where, when John began to talk about donating your body to science, I said out loud "oh shit I forgot there's more".
We also both believed there were actual human teeth in that box. As Mr. Lee so eloquently said, "you and him are the same kind of predictable".
Was it just me or were there a ton of callbacks to past episodes in this segment?? Wondering if that's laying the groundwork for something in the future.

Organ & Body Donations: Last Week Tonight with John Oliver (HBO) [source]
"John Oliver discusses the systems in place for donating our organs and bodies, why those donations don’t always go where we might think they’re going, and which airline is the Greyhound bus of the sky." [31 min 37 sec]
Unfriendly reminder that most body donation programs won't accept a body that weighs more than 250 pounds.

My new star wars books have been delivered, just as the rain is starting. They are currently sitting downstairs "decontaminating" so I can start reading them hopefully soon (brain has been refusing to focus on books lately which pisses me off). Family stuff is...shit again. I'm tired and stressed, so sleepy tea has been made and I'm just trying to relax.

mutual aid needed
hi guys😭 my family and i have been really struggling financially recently and hurricane ian only made it worse. we didn’t get hit too badly yesterday but it’s projected we’ll get more storms later today and tomorrow possibly. the problem is that we’re unable to stay in our house since our yard is full of very unstable trees that could come down at any moment…. So we’ve been staying with family. point is tho we haven’t been able to hurricane prep at ALL bc we can’t afford it. we haven’t got any food to eat for a household comprised of 5 adults, 3 dogs, and 1 cat either
basically im just putting this out here in case anyone can & wants to help with necessities (specifically food) lol

I'll say it as many times as it needs to be said. There is absolutely miniscule actual harm that comes from engaging with Harry Potter in 2024. JK Rowling does not need money. Anything sent her way is less than a rounding error. And the book series was literally EVERYWHERE in the 90s and 2000s. Like it or not, it DID impact a whole generation of people - pretending that never happened is completely absurd, if not outright irresponsible. It happened. It's just a fact. Harry Potter is mainstream. There is nothing that can be done to 'promote' it. It's already there.
What all this obsession with HP on tumblr is about? An easy way to smugly define Good People from Bad People. Because if you *really* cared about trans people enough, you'd hate everything associated with Harry Potter. Regardless of how much you adored it when you were 8 and went to Harry Potter parties with your family all dressed up quoting book lines at one another in your most precious childhood memories because for once your special interest actually aligned with the people closest to you. No, all those positive associations should have been deleted instantly. If you *cared enough*, it would just *happen*.
Which is why a whole slew of people who previously had earnestly reblogged posts about Moral OCD and how bad tumblr can be about it were suddenly cackling about how buying Hogwarts Legacy was comparable to *refusing to throw The One Ring into Mordor, starting a war that would kill millions.* And how donating to a pro-trans charity (an act that would have VASTLY more impact than aforementioned rounding error) is comparable to 'donating to a pro-elf charity' in the wake of that.
Because tumblr doesn't actually give a shit about autistics or OCD sufferers. When we complain about stuff that they also dislike, they proudly reblog that and rage in the notes about how selfish and cruel and Individualist those other people on tumblr are!!! But the *second* they get to paint themselves as the ones with '''''good thoughts and feelings'''''' they take it, and make up posts about how HP likers 'believe they're the main character and everything should revolve around them.'
Is it actually about whether something causes harm? Or is it about dividing the world into Inherently Good People and Inherently Bad People? Is it actually about doing real good for the community and making the world a better place? Or is it about shaming people with the Wrong Emotions until they fucking hate themselves and spend hours upon hours ruminating on end trying to change themselves because their inability to let go of positive Harry Potter feelings is OBVIOUSLY evidence of a truly inescapably evil and cruel and wretched identity that the world would be better off without?
Which is it, actually? When it actually feels a little bit good to feel like you're on the Right Side of all of this, for once?

my sib and I started this thing last year that we call the Dollar a Doll initiative, where every time we get a new doll, we sent aside a dollar or two so that when we have enough we can donate it to a charity of choice.
