I Know I Already Reposted This, But This Repost Also Felt Very Specifically Important So I'm Doing It

A new national day of protest is set to sweep across all 50 states on Saturday, April 5, with demonstrations organized under the banner "Hands Off" targeting threats to democracy, bodily autonomy, and climate justice. Organizers say the protests are a direct response to figures like President Donald Trump and tech billionaire Elon Musk, accusing them of undermining key democratic principles and freedoms.

"Donald Trump and Elon Musk think this country belongs to them. They’re grabbing everything they can, and it’s up to us to push back. On April 5th, we’ll take to the streets with a clear message: Hands off!" ~ ThirdAct.org

A map published by the event's website, HandsOff2025.com, shows protests stretching from Anchorage, Alaska, to Miami, Florida. Some of the largest gatherings are expected in cities like Washington, D.C., San Francisco, and Philadelphia, while smaller events are planned for college campuses and public squares nationwide.

"Across the country, grassroots activists, workers, community leaders and everyday people are coming together to say that it's time for billionaires and extreme lawmakers to take their hands off our healthcare, our wages, our safety, and our rights," the spokesperson said. "Trump and his billionaire allies are openly planning a power grab to roll back our rights, strip workers of protections, and dismantle the foundations of democracy in service of tax breaks for the wealthy and corporations. The stakes couldn't be higher."

Rebloging this. I have been called Melancholy Hill again. Very annoyed.

Glad to know I'm probably not the ONLY person who will have this problem at least.

The Gaslight District was. So cool. 11/10 I love it i watched it with my mom and SHE loves it, very much excited to see more stuff about it.

It's got super cool designs and colors, and I really like the plot!!

BUT, just like everything i like for some reason, it has a very specific downside, and that downside is that I share a name with Mel from the show.

(Gonna put this rant below a cut so people can ignore it if they want.)

when I watched it, I thought "I'm gonna end up being unnecessarily annoyed by her because someone's gonna ask me if I named myself after her, ain't I?" AND I WAS RIGHT SOMEONE HAS ALREADY ASKED IF MY NAME WAS A REFERENCE TO HER WHAT.

It'd only been like 4 hours since it released when this happened people PLEASE.

Melancholy from The Gaslight District, you are going to make my life SUCH A PAIN if this keeps happening, but I also think you're super cool and I desperately WANT to like you. :((

(To make it clear I like Mel, I just don't like that I'm apparently gonna have to explain that my name isn't because of her to people now.)

Flashback to that one time I had to have a whole ass debate with someone under a VENT POST because they kept responding with "well at least you don't have to deal with ____" like????

And the thing is that I DID have to deal with everything they said like dude LET ME VENT WITHOUT TRYING TO ONE UP ME HELLO?? Since when did VENTS become a competition dude.

Please stop trigger tagging with #epilepsy tw/cw/warning/etc.

I need every single person to understand how horrible tumblr’s tagging system is

I go into the tag for epilepsy and its all flashing lights. We can’t use our own tag because people without epilepsy fill it up with improper warnings.

Use ‘flashing’ in place of ‘epilepsy’ in your tags. You aren’t warning people of epileptics, you’re warning us of flashing lights. Please please tag properly. Epileptics say this endlessly and constantly and it’s ignored. You are risking lives by doing this.

Here’s proof of what I mean:

THIS POST IS 100% OKAY TO REBLOG, I ENCOURAGE PEOPLE WITHOUT EPILEPSY TO ESPECIALLY DO SO!

⛔️⛔️STOP⛔️⛔️

I won't forgive anyone skip this and don't help me and my kids. I depend on you you are my last hope to survive 😭😭😭😭😭💔💔💔💔

New update for the Modern Holocaust in Gaza ‼️‼️

The last attempt for ceasefire is gone after Trump left the middle East without giving any hope about us so this is the end in Gaza 💔💔😭😭 🥺🥺🥺 ((killing+starvation)))

We lost hope this time and they will kill the rest of us by bombing or by starving so please read this and share as much as you can 🙏🙏🥺‼️

✅️Vetted by @gazavetters , my number verified on the list is ( #515) ✅️

My full story 🙏💔

I'm Areej I was an English teacher and a creative writer at we are not numbers before war and everything change after October 7. Also I'm a creative writer at we are not numbers.

Dear my kind donors!

I am a mother of three children. We have lived through the war for a year and a half, and we have lost everything we own. My husband is a man who did not work. Before the war, I did not have a breadwinner or any source of income. During the war I didn't give up to teach so I volunteered and had good chance to help some students to get engaged again with English in a very creative way.

Please Save those innocent kids from war 🥺‼️🙏🙏

We are in tents for almost two years because our home was destroyed and my kids are starving now with no enough food  😭‼️🥺After our several evacuation from place to another.Now we don't have a house after it was destroyed by missiles. I now ask you to help me rebuild my house. And buy basics for the daily essentials for my children and I need money so that we can stand up again and start again.

This war wasn't easy at all it has taken many friends at work, students and some of my colleagues at the university. They are almost ten souls I won't never forget . Their laughter, their presence, their love… all of it is gone, leaving behind memories that are both precious and painful. Every day, I carry the weight of their loss, but I also carry their spirit, which gives me the strength to keep going.

My lovely students before war 🥺

My lovely home 💔💔‼️

Here’s what life in Gaza looks like for my family right now:

🏠 Safety: The uncertainty of tomorrow weighs heavily on us.

😢 Loss: The absence of my students and my friends is really hurts.

💔 Dreams on Hold: The future feels so far away when survival takes all our strength.

Note to mention the other very expensive essential goods. I hope you will stand by me to get food

The crossings boarders are closed again these days and war return in Gaza.  The crossing through which food enters has been closed for more than 30 days. We have nothing to eat, and even if we do, the prices are exorbitant. Some of the prices listed are:

1 kg of meat = $100 now there is no meat

1 chicken = 70$ there is no chicken

1 kg of fish = 100$ now it costs 200$

1 bag of flour = $200 now it costs 600$

1 kg of cooking gas = $150 now it costs 1000$

1 kg of sugar = $50

1 kg of eggplant = $20

1 kg of onions = $50

1 kg of tomatoes = $20

How You Can Help Us Cross the Finish Line

Even the smallest act of kindness can make a difference:

. $5 might not seem like much, but it could mean a meal, clean water, or a tiny bit of hope for my family.

Dear,

I hope you are doing well,

Please help my family (16 person including 8 children )spread their campaign. They have been suffering and living in tents for ten months under bombing without any basic needs water,electricity,gas,sanitation facilities.

There is no humanity or mercy in the life in tents of the streets.

My family was forced to flee from the north after being besieged to the south under threat, leaving their home, safety and lives to live in a tragic situation.

My nephew, Kareem, suffers from cerebral palsy and severe malnutrition and needs many medications that are not available. He needs urgent help

Please don't leave us alone. Your kind contribution either through donating whatever you can or sharing my posts will be highly appreciated and valued

My campaign is vetted .

Thanks a lot

Please reblog this post as well! I will put the paypal and gfm links bellow

FNaF lore is like uno. The rules are whatever you can convince everyone else they are.

- someone in a comment I read once.

I think part of why I love the FNaF movie so much is because, when I went to watch it, I felt like that little kid watching Markiplier play FNaF1, and looking for lore, and making silly and sad stories again.

Idk it makes me nostalgic, half it it feels like something that would've been made when FNaF was still new, and I know that probably sounds crazy because the movie probably isn't that, but it FEELS like it is for me, and I really like that.

It reminds me of Old FNaF, maybe it shouldn't, but it does, and I didn't realize how much I missed that until I watched the movie.
