why is arguing with conventionally attractive people so humiliating?? like I will be arguing online with someone about an issue im passionate about but when I check their profile and see that they're very conventionally attractive I feel a wave of nausea and shame. I don't fully get why because i dont get into arguments if im not confident that im right. My guess is that it has more to do with the fact that them being easy on the eyes means that they already naturally have a better chance at people being on their side before the arguments are even made. I dont know I've been doing well lately but I also feel very isolated. I dont think im ugly or anything but im not very good looking either, I have a shitty, hard to like personality, and im trans. The three of those things combined make me feel very separated from those around me. I am going very off topic and kind of just rambling like I do in conversation (which I've been told isn't conversation if youre rambling but anyway) but I dont know. I am usually very confident in my arguments and beliefs but I wish that didnt waver as much as it does when I encounter someone who is attractive or likable.
🚨 My Name is Nasr — and This is Our Cry for Help 🚨
I’m writing this with a heart full of pain and hope.
My name is Nasr, a young man from Gaza, and I’m sharing our story not because I want to—but because I have to.
💔 The war took everything from us.
In just moments, my entire world collapsed.
My mother and sister were killed in an airstrike.
My father is seriously ill and unable to work or provide for us.
Now I am the one responsible for my younger siblings—little children who have seen more horror than any child should.
We used to live a simple life.
We weren’t rich, but we had love and hope.
Now, we sleep under the open sky, surrounded by fear and uncertainty.
Every night, I wonder how I’ll feed them tomorrow.
Every morning, I’m just thankful we’re still alive.
This is not just my story. This is our fight to survive.
We are now struggling to afford even the basics:
A home, food, medicine, and safety.
Right now, we need your kindness more than ever.
Even $10 💵 can help us:
Buy food for the children 🍞
Get essential medicine for my father 💊
Buy them clothes or warm blankets 🧥
Give them a small sense of safety
If you can’t donate, you can still help.
🔁 Re-share this post. Spread our story.
You never know who might see it and feel moved to help.
We are not just numbers. We are human. We are survivors. And we’re asking you… please don’t look away.
🙏 Help us survive. Help us feel human again.
it fuels me that s.e. hinton put chocolate milk in more than one of her books, I love chocolate milk
i dont know why but i am physically incapable of saying "you're welcome" like it feels wrong when I say it I feel eugghhhh
IMPORTANT IF YOU LIVE IN THE US
i forgot to mention this sooner, but trump recently undid the law saying that food production companies have to inspect their food before giving it to the public. while this is good for the companies, it means health risks for people in the US. it also means that companies no longer have to tell you if their product contains anything that could potentially be harmful.
so if you are able to, please try to look into where you buy food so that you can buy from stores that do their own food inspections.
the only one I know off the top of my head is costco, so if anyone knows of others please comment or repost with safe stores.
I made bread from scratch for the first time today and even though its not the most delicious thing I've ever tasted, im pretty proud of myself since ive never baked anything before and I did it myself :D
