Rocking 28's On A Rocketship

This would have had me crucified on tumblr 10 years ago but maybe we are ready for this conversation now:
If you are a socially anxious person, you have to socialize. Your panic/anxiety attacks will only get worse and trigger more frequently if you constantly avoid contact with The Public. Not saying that you need to be a social butterfly- but there is a genuine problem with not being able to order your own meal at a restaurant. And it cannot be solved by always having someone else do it for you.
This is a PSA to about 3/4s of the Portland Youth populace
everyone who reblogs this and is like “I ordered my own tea this week” or “I only barfed once when I had to give a presentation’- you are doing amazing sweetie. Have patience with yourself, you are relearning a skill so difficult that people get 4 year degrees to do it professionally.

Hi y'all – I’m making this post on behalf of Sami, Hamza, and his family, who are currently sheltering in Gaza. You can find their fundraiser here.
As winter breaks and times with our families approach for a lot of us, it’s important not to forget the families suffering in Gaza. Many people don’t have functioning homes or food to eat. The violence against Palestinians is still happening, despite the supposed ceasefire. Sami’s family has many young children, and I ask that you please take the time to donate or spread his fundraiser! Thank you so, so much.
To everyone here, please share this. If you can’t donate, that’s all. Thank you.

I like the idea in fantasy that humans are better at maintaining things long term because they set up societies or professions to do it whereas dwarves and elves and stuff are like “just get bob to do it he’s got a good few hundred years left” and then bob doesn’t teach anyone else how to do it
Elf: How have you kept this castle maintained for a thousand years if your lives are so short?
Human: We just train new people how to do it?
Elf: *gears visibly turning in their head*
Human: Are you alright?
Elf: I just realized that we didn’t have to let that whole city fall to ruin just because my grandfather died.
Human: What?
Human: Wait that’s why there’s ruins of elven cities even though you live for so long? You just keep not asking people how to do things? How do you learn anything?
Elf: There’s a lot of “you’ve got time to figure it out on your own” attitudes floating around in our society that I’m starting to question somewhat.
Elf: That sword, where did you get it?
Human: My cousin made it.
Elf: Impossible! Those metalworking techniques were lost a hundred years ago!
Human: What do you mean lost? My great-grandmother learned to make these swords from an elven smith, then taught it to her kids.
Elf: That’s ridiculous. No elf would give such secrets to a human.
Human: They didn’t. Meemaw delivered the metal to the forge, and no one kicked her out when she stayed and watched. She always said they barely acknowledged her even when doing business with her, like she wasn’t worth noticing.
Elf: Come to think of it, my great-uncle always was rather single-minded when he started working.
Human: So he wasn’t ignoring her, he just forgot she was there?
Elf: Oh, he was definitely ignoring her, too. He was super racist.

my friends and I are all noticing that it’s getting harder and harder to fundraise for Palestine.
Some grassroots initiatives helping people and families in Gaza:
Relief for Rafah: a Mutual Aid Project
Keep Hope Alive: a Gaza Giving Circle
Isnad: Supporting Students in Gaza
