Info-post
Okay, guys, i made this post because i'm honestly tired of the lack of information about Ukraine. The war isn't over and genocide of Ukrainians became normalized. Plus there are a lot of people who truly believe there's no more war because they rarely see any news!
So here are a few sources you can share. Donations are optional
LIVE MAPS:
-Air Raid Alert Map (interactive map where you can see where air raid sirens are on, which cities are under attack, explosions etc)
-DeepState map (also an interactive map with areas that were liberated or are currently occupied by russians; is updated every day)
NEWS SOURCES:
-GRUNT MEDIA (tweet in Ukrainian, but if you use twitter, you can always click a translation button)
-United 24 Media (tweet in English!). Their official website is -> HERE
-Bring Kids UA. They help locate and bring home children who were kidnapped by russians. Their official website -> HERE; their twitter
-> HERE; useful links (including a petition) are HERE
-Save Ukraine. Its a registered charitable organization established in 2014 that coordinates dozens of organizations, volunteers, individuals and legal entities to help those affected by war, with a special emphasis on children. Their websire -> HERE; their twitter -> HERE
-TV Toronto
-Kyiv Independent + their twitter
-Ostap Yarysh. Covers US-Ukraine relations, tweets in ENG. His twitter -> HERE
-Ukraine World. Multilingual media about Ukraine. Their website -> HERE. Their twitter -> HERE
-Zarina Zabrisky. US journalist who reports from Ukraine. Tweets a lot about Kherson city, a city in the south of Ukraine that get shelled and attacked by russian drones DAILY. Recently released a film called "Human Safari" that shows you reality of the town. You can watch her film -> HERE. Her twitter is -> HERE
Charities/volunteers who help AFU:
-COME BACK ALIVE (a non-governmental organisation that helps strengthen Ukraine’s security and defence sector. Has been operational since 2014, when the war has started!) This organization is VERY TRANSPARENT!
Their website is -> HERE. Their twitter -> HERE
-Serhiy Prytula charity foundation. He also helps Armed Forces of Ukraine with trucks, drones etc.
-Sternenko Foundation. Serhii Sternenko is a famous Ukrainian volunteer. He helps UA soldiers with FPV drones. Drones have been crucial weapons/helping tools in this war. They are useful not only for observing, repelling the attacks of the enemies, but also bringing food/water/medicine to wounded soldiers.
His twitter -> HERE
-Leleka Foundation. Medicine, tactical medicine! Lots of lives on the battlefiled are saved with the help of proper tourniquetes and equipment. This org provides it. Their twitter -> HERE
-Wild Hornets. Drones-drones-drones. They make drones that are crucial for this war. Their twitter -> HERE
-Project Konstantin. They deliver aid, vehicles, communications tools, and tactical equipment. Their twitter -> HERE
-NAFO 69th Sniffling Brigade. They bring trucks for Ukrainian defenders. Those who read the news at least a little bit, are aware how important 4x4 trucks are. Especially for evacuation. Their twitter -> HERE
-World Central Kitchen. International organization who provides meals in response to humanitarian, climate, and community crises. They work with locals and really there for those who are affected. A soon as territories in Ukraine were liberated, they were there to help. Unlike OSCE, the UN, Red Cross etc, WCK truly help people. They keep working in Ukraine despite the shelling.
By the way, they work all over the world and helped people in Gaza too! Their twitter -> HERE
THANK YOU to everyone who shares this! Please amplify Ukrainian voices, talk about Ukraine, support those who were affected by war... unfortunately it's closer than you think.
This is very very very useful
idk if you've seen the DLSS5 memes but i think they're great, we're so back
for context, Nvidia or somebody showed off "photo realistic lighting" with DLSS5 and its just yassifying game characters with ai
if any of my follwers are fathers with daughters learning how to cook i have a great reaction image for you
When yet another stupid update gets rolled out
Although without the spirit of communal posting, now it's more like this
RUDEGYAL, an Ode to the Masc Caribbeans of NY, shot by Jaadyn Rogers
popular blogging site crouton.net rolls out an update that removes the crouton png
Maybe film would be better if everyone who wants to become a director were expected to first produce a silent film. Without intertitles. A film where the only tool they have is the moving picture.
Maybe then they'd learn to make films where WE CAN SEE.

snivel1Reblogged yeetmewithachainsawthegenderalFollowas a denizen of this busted ass website for half my life now i do know how staff works and i’m going to lay out what they think will happen as someone who has witnessed this exact thing play outPeople get very mad for a few days and then roll over and accept the change to the enclosure. This is what they are betting on. They have had meetings about this.Getting around it: set an alarm. Get mad not just now, but in a few days, a week, two weeks. They are expecting people to sigh and get over this very odd edit to the site in a few days. Keep flooding them for more than just tonight. Be mad for the week, for the month. Leave a message every day.thegenderallike . I cant even blame them for being like “we’ll monitor for the week”. Remember when they changed the blue back in like 2015? This website acted like staff had gone into their house and shot their dog. We’re here because we’re allergic to change and therefore it’s hard to parse if people hate the change because it’s bad or because we go into thermonuclear meltdown over what color blue the background of the website is. Just continue to bug them beyond today and beyond this week. 4635,26733,434

snivel1Reblogged queeranarchismw0nderland42Followi get that americans love their cultural imperialism, but it really does piss me off that june is “international” pride month just because something happened in the united states. in aotearoa, june isn’t our pride, it’s theirs. marsha p johnson and sylvia rivera are their historical figures, not ours. the phrase that “you owe your rights to Black trans women” is true there, but here we owe our rights to (mostly) Māori historical figures. i have the freedoms i do because of the legacy of an entirely different set of people operating in an entirely different context at entirely different times.But because of american cultural imperialism, most queer people in Aotearoa don’t even know our own queer history. Carmen Rupe, Ngahuia Te Awekotuku, the Dorian Society, Gillian Laundon, Georgina Beyer, and the Wolfenden Association are some of our queer history. We should know their names! we should know what they did for us! but because of the power of the american imperial machine, we don’t.our national pride month should be july, the month that the Homosexual Law Reform Act passed in 1986. our two largest cities hold their pride festivals in february and march, respectively. american queer history has very little (or nothing, depending on who you ask) to do with our queer history. anecdotally, from my own queries, queer youth in aotearoa know more about american queer history than our own.anyway, happy pride, americans. i’m truly sorry that most of you don’t see the negative impact your nation’s culture has on the rest of the world. and to the rest of the world reading this, try searching for your own country and culture’s queer history, don’t accept the american narratives as your own. we deserve our own histories divorced from the cultural hegemony of the USA.1,13123,81533,578

snivel1RebloggedbrehaaorganaFollowI just saw a YouTube short that reminded me that sometimes common knowledge isn't common for everyone, SO here's the reason WHY you should not have a traditional mattress rawdogging the floor without a bedframe:Hint – it's NOT because it makes your bedroom look like a frat boy's first apartment who spent all his money on a giant TV (also on the floor) and a ps5 and one sad mattress on the floor. (Although this is also a good reason, to avoid being that guy, it is not the actually important reason.)The reason is this:You will get mold or mildew under your mattress if the mattress doesn't have air circulation happening underneath it. Air circulation is possible when the mattress is lifted up off of the floor with a bed frame, or if you have a floor mattress, when you regularly roll the mattress back up off the floor.Do not just dump a mattress on the floor and leave it there. You are a warm sweaty body lying on a mattress at night and all the sweat, moisture, and oils will get trapped between the mattress and your floor if there's no circulation. If you have a floor/tatami style mattress, you actually have to be frequently rolling that back up and moving it for the same reason. Traditional floor mattresses get put away (taken off the floor) after sleeping, which brings in the necessary air circulation! don't give yourself a moldy or mildewy mattress – those things are expensive. The cheapest options are:buy the cheapest frame you can find when you buy a mattressor buy the super basic frame that comes with the mattress as a bundle offer find a used mattress frame somewhere for free or cheap. Facebook marketplace, buy nothing, used furniture stores, estate sales, moving giveaways, whatever. DIY a mattress frame if you have the time, energy, knowledge, and can find supplie Buy a floor mattress you are committed to regularly rolling or folding up to provide air circulation There is no "just put the mattress on the floor" option unless you want your bed to also function as a petri dish. 1907,72012,113

snivel1RebloggedcreekfiendFollowdo you ever have an experience where you can immediately tell that someone is someone else's Least Favorite Coworker. like. last year when I was going thru the TSA on my way to visit Ship, I was in a wheelchair bc I always get the wheelchair service, masked up, bc I'm always masked up, and the TSA guy asked me what my visible monitor was, so I was like "it's a heart monitor" and he immediately rolled his eyes and in the most dismissive voice went "but you don't really NEED it, do you" and when I tell you. the SPEED WITH WHICH one of his coworkers made herself appear next to me and just, placed herself between me and this guy and said "ok honey you just come over here with me" and did the rest of my security check herself without once even glancing at or acknowledging this man 😂😂😂 thank you ma'am. I hope your bad coworker gets fired soon 33,87211,471
