Listen, No One Is Too Old To Learn A New Skill. No One. The Amount Of Little Old Ladies That Come Into

Listen, no one is too old to learn a new skill. No one. The amount of little old ladies that come into the yarn shop I work at and say "can you help me figure out this pattern" or "do you all offer lessons" or "I've just started to learn how to crochet/knit. Can you help?: is amazing. And they sit down and pick up new skills and practice and make mistakes and they *learn*

You are never too old to learn

Please, be kind to someone, you never know how it will affect them. Your comment on how good that shirt looks on them or you think they’re cute could be just enough to save them today.

…I almost killed myself

I put on my sunglasses, to hide my swollen eyes, over my tears. I cried all my makeup off. Went inside to have a milkshake. I don’t know why. I wanted something to drink as I figured out what I would do. I got a soda and a milkshake. Medium. The cashier looked at me and with a line around the corner of the counter he rushed away from the counter “Hold on “ he yelled to a coworker.

I filled my soda and went back and saw him looking all over. I go up and he gets close and says “I made it a large”.

That was seriously enough for me not to do it. His kindness. Someone went out of their way and as I went back in my car to cry I realized I could muster through a few other days. A few more weeks. Then I came down from that panicky high of anxiety, depression, and pain. I finished my shake. And it was enough time to let me feel better. I… I’m alive. I’ll make it through.

Try and be nice today. Tomorrow. Something as much as a smile. It helped so much.

Thank you man at McDonalds.

The milkshake saved my life

After 11 weeks of war in Gaza, the Israeli military campaign against Hamas now sits among the deadliest and most destructive in history, exp

JERUSALEM (AP) — The Israeli military campaign in Gaza, experts say, now sits among the deadliest and most destructive in history. In just over two months, the offensive has wreaked more destruction than the razing of Syria’s Aleppo between 2012 and 2016, Ukraine’s Mariupol or, proportionally, the Allied bombing of Germany in World War II. It has killed more civilians than the U.S.-led coalition did in its three-year campaign against the Islamic State group. The Israeli military has said little about what kinds of bombs and artillery it is using in Gaza. But from blast fragments found on-site and analyses of strike footage, experts are confident that the vast majority of bombs dropped on the besieged enclave are U.S.-made. They say the weapons include 2,000-pound (900-kilogram) “bunker-busters” that have killed hundreds in densely populated areas.

you know i don’t think we often talk about how difficult it actually is to suddenly realize that a belief you thought was good and moral and correct was actually really fucking toxic. how you have to look at something and go ‘oh shit, oh i fucked up. oh this is going to take probably years at minimum to deprogram from my brain because of all the little ways this shit pervaded the rest of my beliefs’

so. to all the people picking up all the pieces of a recently shattered world-view and trying to figure out what is safe to keep and what has to be thrown away and started over

to all the people having to relearn how to even listen to other people

to all the people putting in the work to do better while struggling with the guilt that comes from finding out you were the asshole

i’m proud of y’all.

it’s hard to admit being wrong and even harder to change in the aftermath. just keep doing the best you can and just know that the effort is appreciated. everyone can change. everyone can do better. keep fighting.

While the Egyptian government remains impotent, and complicit, when it comes to the atrocities taking place in Gaza, the Egyptian people continue to do what they can. Here, Egyptian citizens unaffiliated with the government brought generators and cables to the border fence to provide electricity to Gazans who have been displaced to Rafah near the border.

I just saw someone say "yeah but the palestinians "left" their homes during the nakba so they are not really theirs anymore" and I-

I Just Saw Someone Say "yeah But The Palestinians "left" Their Homes During The Nakba So They Are Not

Ya rabb give me strength. like what the heck.

Also like "they left"?? my dude the word you are looking for is FLED. they freaking fled otherwise they would have been massacred by Israelis just like all the other THOUSANDS of Palestinians during al-nakba. So that makes Israhellis that live in these stolen houses STILL settler scum and nothing less.
