“People are looking for you. Blaming you for things you haven’t done. It’s dangerous out there, but you’re not alone. Take this.”

To expand on the premise a bit: in my head this Link and Zelda defeated a version of Ganon years ago, but that version was unnaturally long-lived and his reincarnation was born only a couple decades later.

Zelda believes the wise choice is to eliminate the problem early, and avoid future bloodshed.

Link has the courage to believe nobody is born evil, and they can choose to break the cycle.

The player, as Ganon, gains resources kinda like the Spirit Orbs in Breath of the Wild. These can be used to empower the player, or be spent to help people in the world. How much the player chooses to share power with others determines how the game ends.

I came up with a decent idea for a sci-fi dating sim a couple days ago, so here’s me trying out a new painting style with one of the character concepts.

I can vouch personally for the validity of this campaign, as well as @gazavetters (#6 on the list).

They urgently, URGENTLY need your donation.

A reblog that’s all it really takes. There are campaigns on here with tens of thousands of notes how do you think they got there?

By everyone scrolling past? Complain about morality OCD and compassion burnout all you want. My friend Ghada’s family survived the bombing, but they are not safe.

Even after the so-called ceasefire, their lives are still hanging by a thread. At any moment I am not speaking to Ghada, it is possible that she has no food, no shelter, no safety this is what “after the war” looks like in Gaza.

Think about living with ruins instead of homes, fear instead of stability, and the echo of everything they lost. There’s no “getting used to” that as your constant reality.

So when I ask you to reblog this post, think about the lack of effort it would take to flick your thumb and realize it could still be saving the lives of 14 people, affected by destruction and trauma far beyond what you could possibly imagine on your own.

Now released, she must gather them with her best friend Sia and a witch named Shirley. They’ll have to battle a mysterious entity that’s sent it’s vampire minions after them to retrieve the spirits and the ancient tome’s power. However, one of those vampires seems quite taken with Tammy, along with another who’s after her heart.

Check out The Three Tomes if you’re interested in the beginning of a story that’s a YA fantasy. A black magical girl at the center and characters of color in a nostalgic early 2000s setting that will take you back to the past. The melodrama, the yearning, the fantasy the romance and adventure is waiting for you.

Hey, to anyone who enjoys D&D stuff (whether playing or watching podcasts/shows with it)!

I highly recommend “Tales Unwritten” on YouTube!

It’s done with members of the Team Four Star crew (of DBZA fame) and it’s a lot of fun. I’ve watched the whole 1st season (or Book as they’re calling it) they put out and the 2nd season just premiered earlier this week.

Everything is prerecorded and edited to cut out any extraneous talking and so it flows more like a story, so it’s a lot easier for me to follow than other D&D sessions I’ve tried watching. And they also add in art, music, and other neat tidbits to enhance the game and presentation.

Anyway, I hope you check them out and give them some love because this has been a fun series to follow.

To help, here’s a link to the first episode!

Signs of a heart attack are different for each gender yet we only really teach the male warning signs. Make sure you’re aware of both and spread it to as many other women as possible!

EVERY SINGLE TIME I HAVE TAKEN A CPR CLASS I have had to be that person who points out that the training videos ALWAYS frame the “male” symptoms as the default universal heart attack experience, while the “female” symptoms are framed as though they’re a deviation from the norm, rather than the primary symptom set that cis women experience. 

ALSO: I just showed this post to my roommate, who is an MD at a clinic that specializes in care for the LGBT community in the Baltimore area. I asked her  whether hormones were responsible for the difference in the “male/female” symptom arrays. I asked how that would apply to her trans patients (which, she treats a LOT of trans patients). She said, basically, that the longer you’ve taken testosterone the more likely you are to get the intense chest pressure and the arm pain, versus the upper back pressure and shortness of breath.

Obviously I am not a doctor myself, consult your own health care provider, etc.

Reblogging this comment because this is the FIRST TIME I’ve ever seen someone address what XYZ medical condition would look like in trans patients. Also this is partly why my great-grandma died: the (male) doctor dismissed her heart attack as basically indigestion, because she didn’t have the typical male symptoms.

Oh my God someone was able to answer the trans patient question!

it’s so funny to me to watch people play hollow knight and be like “I’m just in it for the next boss fight, I LOVE the boss fights”. could not be me. I’m in it for the beauty of exploration and the glory of platforming, I see a big room and go ah fuck why must I suffer

This is also me.

Though I did love the Lace boss fight. Swordfighter bosses are always the best ones to me.

I don’t know what’s left after this. They announce it officially without fearing anyone and without taking into consideration international conventions. (Smotrich: We are destroying Gaza and we will not stop.)

The unfortunate and sad thing is that some countries have not recognized that Israel is committing genocide against us. They starved us, destroyed our homes, killed us, and displaced us. They completely destroyed our lives. We are returning to a new Nazi era under the leadership of Netanyahu.

Israel is committing genocide against the Palestinian people in Gaza. A war that has not stopped for two years. Tens of thousands of people have been killed, hundreds of thousands wounded and injured, and many homes have been destroyed. The world, which claims peace, has not moved to stop the massacres that are being committed daily. My friend Nader and his family have been suffering from these hardships for two years. Please provide them with support and assistance, and donate if you can.

Please, friends, help us and donate to us. We are going through very difficult circumstances. My home, my life, and everything has been destroyed. Please help me and donate to me.

Please help Nader to be okay, he has been through a lot and has miraculously escaped death more than once. Life in Gaza is very terrifying. Please help and donate to Nader if you can.

230 people have shared this post and no one has donated. Please help us and donate. We are suffering here, please.

510 people have read and shared my post, and only 3 have donated. This is very sad. Please do not abandon us. We need your support and help. Please donate.

What is this? 1,500 people participated and only 7 people donated. Guys, please donate.

Hey guys please help me please donate to me please

Stop making us suffer, please. Donate, please, please.

Please continue to support us and donate to us, please.

2300 shares have been shared and only 17 people have donated. This is very, very sad. We need help. We are not well. Please donate.

Come on my friend please help me I am dying here please donate

The last donation was 3 hours ago and we are suffering from everything here. The situation is very bad. We need help. Please donate.

For two hours now, no one has donated to us. Please donate.

Yesterday, my mother fractured her arm while trying to get aid. I couldn’t go with her because I’m severely malnourished. She smiled through the pain so we wouldn’t worry, but I could see it all in her eyes — and it broke me.

Before the war, my mother was a kindergarten teacher. Today, she’s forced to push through crowds just to bring us something to eat. I’m not writing this to beg for sympathy — I’m writing because we simply can’t endure this alone anymore.

If you’re able to help, even with a small amount, it could make a real difference. Thank you to everyone who shares or supports us in any way.

His current Chuffed is shared by @/el-shab-hussein. His original but now defunct GFM is vetted and promoted by @/gaza-evacuation-funds and #408 on the verified fundraiser spreadsheet vetted by el-shab-hussein, MohAyesh and nabulsi, but he is now using Chuffed because GFM shut down his fundraiser

Your donations help people facing starvation and frequent bombings every day afford food, water, and other basic needs – it is literally lifesaving!! Please share this fundraiser and donate if you are able to! Every little bit helps!

You can get a postcard after you donate!
