To anyone wondering about the validity of the fundraising by desperate Gazans & questions about how the money is being access and used this is a really good thread. I had questions about the latter, personally.

I am going to try to keep adding accounts here as I work through the Palestinian accounts here.

I am going to make this 🧵 to answer as many common questions about these accounts as well as other Gazan GoFundMes as I can so put a 📌 in it if you need a central location for these questions.

I’m going to make individual posts for the Palestinian accounts I’m boosting today so they don’t get lost in a thread but if you are looking for them all in one place I’ll link them here 🔽

You know what, let's do the Annual Mister Global National Costume thread tonight after all. Usual rules apply - this is all in fun, this isn't about the contestants looks or making fun of them, it's about the costumes and appreciating them (or, you know, making fun of them...)

Well since these knuckleheads believe that the 2020 election was stolen, I'm not the least bit surprised James woods thinks Trump won this last one in a landslide.

Yes. Is this supposed to be a gotcha? Confused.

Look, by election day I hated this woman. She was willfully deaf dumb & blind to what the base wanted, was campaigning w/Rs & chasing big donors approval. She repeatedly chastised Pal protesters. But there's no reason to protest her talks. Just like Biden before her, she f'd up but she's not POTUS

The spontaneous & sustained protests that show up in response to cities being invaded by the military seem more relevant to me than these quarterly nationwide protests that make a bunch of white people feel good on a Saturday afternoon before they go home to mow the lawn. Like come on

You don't think THAT would drive more impact? Why was the Disney boycott the 1 thing we collectively did? Bc it was low stakes. Not a huge inconvenience to the populace. Change has got to make life really inconvenient for them AND us

I'm gonna be that negative Nelly here and agree. I mean yes go out but why are we signaling these dates well in advance, penciling it on a weekend? I then see ppl walking home satisfied. For what? Where are the strikes? Like what if we got 5% of US workers across all industries to strike?

Just watched #TheSubstance . What in the actual F?!? THIS is what people were raving about? This is what won all those awards? Man y'all are f'd up. I absolutely hated it

hollyglightly.bsky.social @hollyglightly.bsky.social · 1d

Yeah this is me. I don't admit it online bc of the whole "white people don't wash their legs!" But I wash necessary bits daily to stay clean and fresh, use all unscented products & HATE that I'm subjected to so many scents in public (especially airplanes & Uber rides where there's no escape).

I'm loving it. I still hope she'll get a story of her own but her getting involved in a number of stories is good.

LiRic 😩😩😩. I like them as friends but please, no romance. Way too toxic

hollyglightly.bsky.social @hollyglightly.bsky.social · 1d

Tanisha & Donnell do have chemistry but the character sucks and he treated her like crap. Jordan is so gorgeous and hot, she should be getting sexed up left right and center #GH

Were they officially over when she slept with Isaiah in her office? I know Portis argued just before that but didn't think they officially called it quits

Ikr?! Dude's on a digital detox. So call your other ex w/plenty of experience with law enforcement

I love that Jordan is going to be able to throw Portia's hypocrisy & ho'ing ways in her face. Accused her of seducing Curtis when nothing was going on, only to sleep with another dude & now being in a WTD. #FreeJordan #LetJordanLead

Oh God, I forgot she experienced it with Aiden too! LMAO. Was just remembering Jake. I think with Cam she had only slept with Zander right?

Remember back in the day when certain fans tried to slut shame Liz for climbing 15 flights of stairs for the NOP & having 3 baby daddies? I wish we had even a kernel of that baddie around now. I want her in a polycule w/Dante, Michael, Jason & Isaiah.

That would be fun. Hell it's already a highly unrealistic pregnancy so let's shoot for the stars. Personally, I find her most interesting when she's messy. When she's being sanctimonious is when I most dislike her.

hollyglightly.bsky.social @hollyglightly.bsky.social · 1d

Liz preach the word here. You've been down this road. Counsel your friend away from lying. Again. Speak to your own mistakes.
