Aid is hardly reaching Palestine due to blockades, what you can do now is: pray; keep talking about them (it's turning the tide); purchase eSIMs to keep Gazans vonnected during the blackout; and boycott companies in the BDS (boycott, divest, sanction.)

This is very, very true! The companies are unscrupulous and the same products have WAY more artificial flavouring and colouring, way more sugar, high fructose corn syrup, and omit the natural fruits and other more expensive healthier ingredients found in the same food elsewhere.

Do not donate to any gofundme organized by this woman, she's scamming Palestinians and taking the money meant to help them. Profiting off people's compassion for victims of a genocide...

And yeah, just about every autistic person has stories like this, of kids fake-encouraging them or acting friendly and supportive, when they were actually making fun of them all along, and itโs horrible. Some even go on for years believing theyโre their friends.

Aaaand the character designs are ugly and unappealing, but thatโs my problem with most soulless American cartoons lately. The 80โs (and some 90โs) ones were panned as looking the same, but they were detailed & appealing. The reboot as a whole is such a stiff, unpolished, eyesore.

Seeing this happen to your own kids or younger siblings is equally heartbreaking.
Really sick of bullies and people utterly lacking a conscience trying to excuse bullying autistic/nd kids for being โawkwardโ or โcringeโ just for having something they love.

It might not apply to you, but it is common:
Many men do dislike when things donโt fit their narrow definition of rape because โif THATโS rape, thatโd make me and plenty of guys I know rapistsโโwhich sounds laughably ridiculous or troubling to their conscience, so they reject it.

I always think this when the rape has to do with any kind of coercion.
They all think rape is pinning someone down and forcing them, so the fact that they may have committed it in a different way is something they donโt want to face.

The TV anime does this too, but being a long-runner (two decades!!!) with a smallish budget, it can never have as much motion and detail as an OVA, movie, short, or seasonal anime.
