hi friendly reminder that from six of crows main characters:
3 out of 7 are poc
4 out of 7 are lgbtq+
2 are recovering from addictions
2 out of 3 couples are interracial
there are all kinds of disabilities (learning disabilities, physical disabilities, mental disorders, an adhd coded character)
we have a cishet white man raised in a racist, sexist environment unlearning his bigotry and actively trying to be better and help the people he used to hate
we have a fat girl who's still hot and confident in her body
I love it so much

it’s unfair of us to have platforms and not use it to speak up for palestinians. i have resources provided below for how you can educate yourself on the ethnic cleansing that is happening in palestine right now and how you can help.

watch this video to donate, it’s 3 hours long but just playing it in the background can help. do not play on loop and do not skip ads.
watch this video to donate, it’s 1 hour long but just playing it in the background can help. do not play on loop and do not skip ads.

thread of dua’as muslims can make to pray for palestinians

help hungry children in palestine
donate to palestine child relief fund, known to be reputable
donate to united palestinian appeal, a direct charity

i’ll add more links as i continue to find reliable sources and proper donations. please dm me other resources and i can add them to this list. if anything here is not trustworthy, please let me know immediately and i will take it down. free palestine until it’s backwards, pray for palestinians who do not know whether they will be safe in their own country.
last but not least, if you are a pro-israel, unfollow me immediately. i don’t need you on my tumblr. and do not use what is happening in palestine right now to be anti-semitic.

I’ve seen a lot of posts on my dash tonight about users who are threatening suicide, with other Tumblr members posting in effort to try to get ahold of them. I think you all should see this:
IF THERE IS EVER A TUMBLR USER WHO HAS POSTED A GOOD-BYE MESSAGE, SUICIDE NOTE, VIDEO, OR ANYTHING OF THE SORT, PLEASE FOLLOW THIS POST.
1. Scroll to the top of your dashboard.
2. See the circular question mark icon at the top? It’s the third one over from your home symbol. Click on that, and a screen similar to the one in the picture will come up.
3. Where you can type in questions, the box with the magnifying glass at the top, type in the word “suicide.”
4. Click on the first link that shows up. It should say, “Pass the URL of the blog on to us.”
5. Type in the user’s URL and tell Tumblr admin that the user is contemplating suicide and has posted a message indicating that they are going through with it or will be attempting. Hit send! Tumblr administration will perform a number of actions to contact the user and take the necessary steps to prevent the suicide.
TUMBLR: THIS COULD SAVE A USER’S LIFE. PLEASE DO NOT IGNORE SUICIDE THREATS.
Reblog this to keep other users aware. Suicide isn’t a joke, and neither is someone’s life. If you didn’t know this, someone else may not, either. Pass it on.

six of crows as zodiac signs except i don't know anything about astrology <3
i'm trying my best i'm sorry
Kaz: Scorpio because the only things I know about them are that they are mysterious and 100% down with murder and theft at all times.
Nina: Leo. She's a bad bitch and she knows it. Could also be a Libra I think.
Jesper: Sagittarius, he just wants to have fun bro. Could probably also be a Leo.
Wylan: Virgo, smart and nice. Will hold your hair back while you puke.
Inej: Taurus. Idrk she just gives me Taurus vibes.
Matthias: Pisces?? Maybe? The only one in the group who isn't down for murder.
