Unemployed Muslim undergrad needs help with daily expenses.

Repost because the initial post lost traction but I'm still struggling.

I have no work but am currently the primary support for a family of 8. I am pulling from savings to barely cover bills, food, utility, gas, and assorted family expenses.

Any help including reblogs is appreciated.

This Easter and TDOV really just showed that people have a lot of shit to say but don't know what the everloving fuck they're talking about.

"Why do Trans people need a day you have a whole month already???" Trans Visibility Day is for Trans people, Pride month is for all Queer people. It's different. But also there are other national months that have a dedicated day in a different month.

Easter is a different day every year and sometimes it's going to land on a day that already has a holiday/nationally recognized day. You gonna be mad at stoners next year for daring to have a smoke with jesus?

Why do you think February is Black History Month? Or why May is AAPI month? Or why June is Pride month?

Do people think that national months happen by closing our eyes and pointing at a calendar? Do you think we just picked a month at random and claimed it ours? Significant moments and events in history happened during those months. And it often took years for those months to be nationally recognized. History is actually so fun to learn about please read something I'm begging.

• And if you're outside of the U.S and you have different national months/holidays please let me know I'd love to read about it!

(Also I only used History.com and one AmericanBar articles because other links weren't working but I encourage you to do research from other sources as well as read the articles I linked.)

In February Black History Month was Black History week for decades:

In March Women's History Month started as Women's History Week:

April is Arab American Heritage Month:

May is Asian American & Pacific Islander Month:

June is Pride Month:

Juneteenth:

July is Disability Pride Month:

September 15 to October 15 is Hispanic Heritage Month:

Indigenous Peoples' Day is the second Monday in October, and November is Native American Heritage Month:

“Born in 1907 in Hong Kong, Li was a 24-year-old studying medicine at a university in Shanghai when he met Hirschfeld. Then 63 years old, Hirschfeld had come to China to give public lectures about the science of sex. The year was 1931.”

The lecture that afternoon was hosted by a Chinese feminist club at a fancy, modern apartment building. When Hirschfeld finished speaking, Li came up and introduced himself. He offered to be his assistant. It was the beginning of a relationship that would profoundly shape gay history, as well as the rest of both of their lives.

With Li by his side, Hirschfeld spoke all over China. Li then accompanied Hirschfeld on a lecture tour around the world, traveling first class on ships to Indonesia, the Philippines, South Asia, Egypt and beyond.

In his lectures, Hirschfeld explained his influential model of homosexuality: It was a character trait that people were born with, a part of their nature. It was neither an illness nor a sin, and the persecution of homosexuality was unjust. He gave 178 lectures, plus radio interviews. His ideas reached hundreds of thousands of people.

This was the first time in world history that anyone told so many people that being gay was not a bad thing and was, in fact, an inborn and natural condition.

My owned TBR for 2023 (1/12) 

I wanted to share more of my books/reading habits on here. 

I think I promised more original content on here so I have a bunch of book covers for this December. These 12 posts would ideally make up a portion of my reading list next year, give or take a few titles. 

Happy Reading everyone! :)

On April 27, 1997, four contestants make it to the final cell of the Quigley House, a full-contact haunted escape room in Lincoln, Nebraska, made famous for its monstrosities, booby-traps, and ghoulishly costumed actors. If the group can endure these horrors without shouting the safe word, “reprieve,” they’ll win a substantial cash prize—a startling feat accomplished only by one other group in the house’s long history. But before they can complete the challenge, a man breaks into the cell and kills one of the contestants.

Those who were present on that fateful night lend their points of view: Kendra Brown, a teenager who’s been uprooted from her childhood home after the sudden loss of her father; Leonard Grandton, a desperate and impressionable hotel manager caught in a series of toxic entanglements; and Jaidee Charoensuk, a gay international student who came to the United States in a besotted search for his former English teacher.

As each character’s journey unfurls and overlaps, deceit and misunderstandings fueled by obsession and prejudice are revealed, forcing all to reckon with the ways in which their beliefs and actions contributed to a horrifying catastrophe.

My Anecdotal Experience Negates Generations of History

Call: 

“Im brown asian (pakistani) and have dated East Asian guys lmao.. I don't get your point

Literally all gay PoC when they date interracially go for white men why are you acting like its exclusive to asian men?”

Response:

No, they don't. Not nearly as much as Gay Asian men. Whereas everyone *can* go for white men, every non Asian POC will typically mix and match with other non-white POC while Asians are rarely with Latinos, or Black people or even brown people from their own continent. I'll up the ante and ask you to find me any East Asian/ Brown/ Black gay couple and I'll STILL find you ten White/ Asian gay couple to replace it. There are reasons for this depending on the generation, but it's an undeniable fact; whether we're talking about gold diggers, green cards, the effects of white supremacy on the minds of POC, aspiring to whiteness, the model minority myth, simply growing up in an all white area/ not being around other POC, the reasons are there and the dynamic is undeniable, but sure, tell me about your anecdotal experience being one of the view Pakistani people who had an East Asian boyfriend.
