so crazy how steve blackman made the executive decision to replace five in s4 with his weird boring oc named jerome who homewrecks and isn’t as cool as five and thought we wouldn’t notice
i sure am glad, though, that instead of participating in season 4’s activities, five was actually off being a retired old man, fishing… or doing crossword puzzles from the morning newspaper… or adopting mr pennycrumb …
LOVE FIVE BURN JEROME‼️‼️‼️‼️🔥🔥🔥🔥
has this been done yet
the best advice i have for people getting into knitting/crochet or anyone who struggles with written patterns is to TRANSLATE THE PATTERN TO ENGLISH. this helps so much to learn how to read patterns + all the lingo associated with them for example: ch4, sl st to beg to form loop 1: ch2 (counts as 1st dc), 2dc in loop, *ch3, 3dc* 3 times, sl st to 2nd beg ch
written out fully, this becomes: chain four, slip stitch to the first chain to form a loop 1: chain two (counts as first double crochet), two double crochet, *chain three, three double crochet), slip stitch to beginning chain to end round
sure it's longer and it takes some time to write out a whole pattern in this way, but it's SO HELPFUL!!
Well, if you care about disabled rights, you should be caring about the rights of the disabled people in Ghazzah right now. Muhammad, only 4 years old, is one of those people.
Muhammad is the son of Noor, and he is one of 2 siblings. He was born with a condition that causes his muscles to be very weak and makes it difficult for him to move.
In order to to treat his condition, Muhammad received regular physical therapy sessions, which really improved his quality of life and health.
However, when the siege on Ghazzah began, Muhammad was no longer able to receive the medical treatment that he desperately needs. He is now displaced with his family, living in unbearable conditions without basic resources, and his health has been rapidly deteriorating
This treatment is essential to Muhammads survival, and without it his life is in grave danger.
In order to help Muhammad continue his treatment and evacuate Ghazzah, Noor is trying to raise £80,000. So far, she's only raised £4,367, and her last donation was 4 hours ago.
Please help this family however you can. Donate if you're able and share their campaign; everything will help in saving Muhammad's life.
okay so in s4 for klaus is seen levitating in the alley wearing a granny square scarf. now my beef with s4 aside, KLAUS GRANNY SQUARE SCARF. i need, repeat, i need to make one. when i saw it i physically screamed and pointed at the television screen like i was briefly possessed by a granny square demon. anyway headcanon that klaus both knits and crochets. it helps keep him sane (and sober in the later seasons). he learned from a ghost
watchmen getting more popular due to the new movie means I’m not seeing TOO many people misinterpret it in the usual way but it means I’m seeing people misinterpret it in the exact opposite way. Rorschach isn’t silly and open about his sexuality and a kinnable superhero that is a fascist. That is Ronald Reagan in a superhero costume. I need you to understand this he is fucking bad
Our beautiful Klaus ✨

I don't have much more to say that hasn't been said before about the whole situation w/ tumblr implying that users should assume anyone from the global south with a fundraiser is a scammer.
But I will say, after having staff in my DMs talking down to me about scammers and now this? This whole situation isn't coming as a complete shock. I was reached out to by staff prior to this happening (like earlier this year), and was sent a list of the same "signs of scammers" that zionists were weaponizing against us (and still are, I suppose).
They couldn't provide me with any solid proofs of people being scammers beyond weak arguments and the classic "just trust me, bro" They did not want to listen to or take in my perspective, which is built on my lived experience as a Palestinian, knowing Palestinian culture, knowing how we talk and our attitudes and how to communicate. And they insisted that they were right and I was wrong. They dismissed any clarification I gave on the vetting process and how Gazans on tumblr operate. They dismissed when I pointed out the flaws I saw in their own methods.
And I didn't press the issue at the time, just said that I'd be careful and moved on. My friends and I kept brainstorming to take more measures to make sure we were even more strict and even more careful that every single person we add to our list is legit.
(side note: they proved they were staff by answering a months old ticket where I'd reported blog #398534394 by that ox/ford comma loser, as if he hasn't remade another billion times since then. And I know this post is about something else, but WILD that this dude's been allowed to harass Palestinians on this site for YEARS and staff does nothing about him)
Anyway this is staff, yet again, thinking they know better than Palestinians, speaking down to us, acting like we don't know what we're doing or what we're talking about.
I was told that if I wanted to check on blogs, I could just submit a ticket and send it to staff and they could run a check to see if it's legitimate, and honestly? With staff's track record of deleting Palestinians on this site? People like Mohd Ayesh who has time after time proven he is a real genuine Gazan. This man was trekking through a war zone, putting himself though intense stress to do this for YOUR benefit. So you can have peace of mind knowing that you're donating to real legitimate people. And tumblr staff seemed to be certain enough he's a scammer apparently to delete his blog every single time he remade it.
There is no way I can trust tumblr staff to tell whether or not someone is a scammer, not back then, and certainly not now.

Hey so
the last time I reblogged this post right before I got a great job, in a permanent work-from-home position, with benefits, retirement, and a salary literally 3x what I was making before, doing something I really like.
So you know.
This might be the real one, y’all.

It seems Tumblr is continuing with their mass deactivation of Palestinian blogs. This time they've gone after @nourfamily1989, a mother with five young children in Gaza. Please continue sharing and supporting her fundraiser while she tries to get her account back.
i'm in regular contact with nour and i want to highlight the following: 1) her youngest daughter ghazal, who is only two years old, has developed a speech impediment from the trauma of this situation, and her 13 year-old son muhammad has developed an autoimmune issue from lack of sanitation, constant insect bites and exposure to unclean water, recurring illness, etc. 2) my friends recently sent money to help nour buy winter clothes for her children, the prices of which will knock out a lot of what she received due to high demand and low supply. the costs of food, medical treatment, etc. are still very high. 3) many of nour's extended family members benefit from these funds as well. these are people who were already poor before the war, and now they can't work. all they can do is find internet hotspots and ask for help. that's where we come in. if reading this distresses you, and if you're mad about tumblr deleting palestinians' accounts, the good news is that you're not helpless: even tiny donations make a difference.
i posted the colored version of this a while ago, but i dearly love the sketch
