March 28. Taleed El-Sabawi, JD, PhD writes: "Jordan should be trending right now. Protests have been blocking traffic; men have flooded the streets in such large numbers that even the repressive military force in Jordan can’t beat them into submission (something they frequently do); Protesters are chanting for Jordan to open its borders so they can march to Al-Aqsa. The political unrest in Jordan has been at a boiling point for years now.
High rates of unemployment particularly among young men; significant inflation; high housing costs; low wages; skyrocketing gas prices, electricity, groceries…hardly any industry. Repressive import taxes.
And a monarchy that pockets millions of US government aid in exchange for US military access. The monarchy is now holding on by a thread.
Expect the Jordanian forces to increase their violence against protestors. Expect the U.S. to send in reinforcements in some shape or form—If the monarchy falls, it will not be a U.S. co-opted government that will organically take its place. It will not be an Israel friendly government. Expect the U.S. to meddle as they always have & to do everything they can to keep the monarchy in place.
Even a UN Ceasefire isn’t enough to make Israel ceasefire or the U.S. to call for Israel to ceasefire. The calculus has changed. The people are reminded yet again how the governments of the world have failed them. Expect more of this around the world.
Every time there are protests in Jordan, I call my family in Amman to get a sense of how serious it is, because my grandparents are in Amman. Since October, every time I call they have brushed it off as young men being young men. Skirmishes with the armed guard as usual. But today was different. They spoke about not being able to drive in the streets, of the chaos, of the sheer number of human bodies, of the determination to do something to help Gaza—something has changed. This time, it feels different.
Additional important context: Jordan was created in 1946. When Britain divided up the Arab World into nation states. Before that there was free movement & a greater degree of one-ness. So when Jordanians say they there is no difference between us and the Palestinian people or that we are the same people , it is because the British creation of nation states was a Western government forcing the Arab people into its Western constructs.
[about further protests in Jordan] There are already plans to start again —at Maghreb tomorrow (sunset)—at the Israeli embassy and doing a sit-in again until dawn, interspersed with prayers. Tomorrow will mark day 5 of protests in Amman."

Everything this guy says about the Sun and Moon show is a lie! They treat Sun as if he is the abuser and Moon is a victim when anyone who has watched the show can see that it is completely untrue and Moon was the cruel one between the two before the memorie wipe. Besides They are also being super sexist towards Earth, Seriously, I can't even read anything on this blog because is very hateful and a not true, they are a hater who clearly didn't watch the show, because everything they say is a lie!
If you are new to the SAMS community, DO NOT believe what this person says!! They don't know anything about the Sun, Moon, Earth or anything about the show and will try to spread these lies to you! They interacted with real fans and not a hater!!

Hello! I'm so sorry for this— I really didn't want to ruin the festivities— but I need to open yandere fic emergency commissions; my target is 15 USD. My school uniform has been torn to shreds in the machine and I can't exactly budget this week's allowance since my university is rather strict based on the manual. I'd do my best to write a minimum of 3k words + a drawn GIF header similar to these
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
[I honestly don't know wtf I'll eat this week at this rate kinda panicking rn cuz my scholarship stipend still hasn't arrived for months hahahahahha. To put it in perspective, the uniform I need costs 8 USD why are they so damn expensive when the fabric has the lousiest threads in the planet, and I have F2F classes for 3 days straight starting this Monday to Wednesday, then again at Friday to Saturday and I usually budget my meals to be 1 USD. I'm SEAsian, I'm just converting the amount to USD but I eat those 1 cup of rice + hotdog every lunch but of course the university canteen closes at night and it's a bit more expensive outside hAHAHHA 😭😭😭]
I write for: genshin impact, honkai: star rail, fire emblem: three houses. Can be x reader or OC character [please provide information for the latter]. Here are some samples of my writings...
If the Pedestal Is Beautiful... (Zhongli)
Apotheosis Upon Your First Feast (Scara & Pantalone)
Classical Conditioning (Dottore)
I Got Reincarnated As A Server NPC (Diluc)
The things I don't write are: full NSFW smut scenes & adult/minor pairings
I'll put the commissioned fic a priority above all my other works. Please message me if you're interested. Thank you so much for taking the time to reading this, have a blessed February!!!
Edit: THE SLOT HAS BEEN FILLED OMG IM SO RELIEVED 😭😭😭😭 THANK YOU FOR HELPING ME OUT I CAN NOW WORK FOR MY ALLOWANCE THIS FEB 😭😭😭😭

Dear Readers,
It is with a a lot of regret that I must share an update regarding the story that I have been writing. As the author, I find myself in a difficult position. I have lost the motivation to continue writing this IF.
In the midst of this, I want to assure you that I am looking for a way to ensure that the story finds the continuation it deserves. I am currently talking with my co-writer, Amelia, talking about the possibility of her taking over the story or collaborating with someone else.
I understand the investment that a few of you have made in our story. Your support and understanding during this time would mean the world to me, and I would be genuinely grateful.
I want to extend my deepest apologies for any disappointment and inconvenience this announcement may bring.
In the meantime, I ask for your understanding and support.
Sincerely,
Oliver

I know I'm probably not supposed to but ..... I don't exactly think Donnie was in the wrong for his outburst.Like, whether or not Leo meant to he did destroy something that meant a lot to Donnie and they just lived through an exhausting nightmare. On a good day Donnie struggles with emotions and he's being asked to suddenly emotionally deal with something way out of his wheelhouse. It doesn't really feel fair that he's suddenly forced to be more emotionally intelligent than he ever has before because of something Leo kinda did do to himself. Leo is a lot younger than Donnie now but Donnie is still a kid himself. Idk I've just been thinking about your au Donnie a lot
YOU'RE SO RIGHT THOUGH!!!!
I have a lot of thoughts about Donnie in this au, like he really is putting 100% into fixing the problem and getting basically nothing back from Leo. Like sure, Leo is just a kid and is scared and stuff, but Donnie is really truly just trying to get him back to the right age!!!
I've been in Donnie's position before of being rightfully frustrated but having to be the 'bigger person' ( in his case literally lmao) so I really wanted him to be able to get frustrated and get mad
oh man not even the fact that he's probably both physically and mentally exhausted:
Tumblr media
(idk how legible this is but Donnie and Raph have slept ONCE throughout this entire ordeal )
I made a little timeline because you're so right and I have so many thoughts I can't even express about why Donnie isn't in the wrong in his frustration.
Also YEAH LEO DESTROYED LIKE??? PRECIOUS CHILDHOOD ART?? And I will say with 1000% certainty that it was super important to Donnie cause it truly was his first collaboration with Leo !!! and it was like!!! idk it wasn't like their first fight ever but it was the first time Leo had actually tried to make up for something he did ( even though it was an accident, it really showed him that 'Oh Leo actually does care about me even though we fight a lot' )
augh aug augh I have so many thoughts about this cause being able to see that Donnie is not a true anatagonist in this story is something reaslly important to me yknow???

How old is everyone?
(I’m asking this because I saw your Howdy x Barnaby art and o was mildly concerned if they had a large age gap)
okay pause important post
im not trying to imply that theres any age gap between any of the characters! AAaA!
Tumblr media
I dont have any set ages, but they are all adults and all relatively the same age (like 25-30?)
Ik we joke that Barnaby is the old man of the neighborhood, but he isnt actually older then any of them! Poppy is even a year older then him! Barnaby just sort of acts older, (being the "smartest/wisest", having a limp so he uses a cane, yknow)
i hate age gaps and proshipping and weird ships oh god please dont think that please sobs sobs

Following this-
Another thing I want to point out is that this person not only bullies and harrasses people and "reports" them for the dumbest things
They also threaten people by hoping that they'll be r*ped, encouraged suicide and is flat out transphobic (probably said the T slur)
Once again, this person isn't me and I had nothing to do with this. I'm an innocent person who just draws and RPs as funny beep boop characters from a rhythm game. I don't even send asks anonymously
I have a hunch that this is the person who sent those irl self harm pics as those impostor blogs of @/brooke2valley setting me up but we don't know who they actually are
Delete the ask if you get one or at least spread the tag... #wolf is innocent ✊️

I don't think there is any right way for me to put this. And I would like to apologize to everyone who will be disappointed by this message.
This last week has been incredibly hard for me. Starting with the weird wave of hate anons accusing me of being "cliquey" and not welcoming enough with small authors in the HotD community, to the issues I had with Sam (blackdreamspeaks here on Tumblr), to some heartbreaking news I just received today from people I considered my friends... I just can't do it anymore.
I am going on a small hiatus. I will post the next part of THW when I deem it ready, as well as the continuation for Dragon Sickness. After that, I might move most of my writings to Ao3 (@ItsActuallyMinicika).
I don't want to say anything for certain, as I am extremely hurt and confused, and I recognise I'm not in the right mindset to make any important calls right now.
I would like to thank everyone who supported me and still does so to this day, who believed in me and encouraged me to write my fics and say the truth, no matter how hard that may be ♡
I'm just not in the right headspace to stick around right now. I feel unwelcome in both my IRL circles and some smaller ones that I created on Tumblr. So I need to use this break to decide what's best for me.
Writing has always been my escape from real life. I'm a med student who functions on 3-5 hours of sleep a day, and I have manuscripts to learn and a bunch of manuals to master. In between all my tasks, I write and post here. But I don't feel seen or heard anymore, and going on an app that makes me feel sad would just be masochistic and not at all the correct moveset. It felt as though I was crying wolf when I spoke to people about my worries (but that isn't anyone's fault but my own - perhaps my expectations are too high, and I put too much pressure on always doing the right thing, no matter who gets to benefit from it), so I'll take some needed distance.
Either way, yep, hiatus.
This might take a day or two, or a full blown week etc. I'll still be working on the requests I got, and do my best to post them soon. I just won't be very active here.
If you read until here, you're awesome and I love you. See you guys really soon!
Mwah ♡

It's been a while since I've properly posted on here oh lort 😔 I'm far more active on Instagram nowadays but I might try and split my attention better between these two apps LMAOFHDV
ANYWAYS to address the Wilbur thing, all I'm gonna say is that I no longer support Wilbur (obviously) BUT I have always and will always separate characters from their creators, so I'm not going to stop drawing cWilbur and qWilbur.
On that note though I will be revamping their designs to help separate them a little more (especially qWilbur, I have a lot of ideas to make his design more my own), I might also call them William instead depending on how I continue to feel.
All of my love goes out to Shelby and other people who have dealt with abuse in the past, I hope everyone is doing okay, just remember to take care of yourself and remember that things take time to heal!
You Are Stronger Than You Think
