“This is what Shakespeare would have wanted.”

“Shakespeare wouldn’t have wanted this.”

No! You’re both wrong! Shakespeare wanted one thing and one thing only. To sell tickets.

If people spend money at the Globe theatre and don’t steal his bones then his ghost is happy

“Good friend for Jesus sake forbeare, To dig the dust enclosed here. Blessed be the man that spares these stones, And cursed be he that moves my bones.”

Shakespeare’s actual grave. He put a curse on anyone that tries to touch his bones. That’s what Shakespeare wants. Buy tickets and don’t touch his bones.

While we continue to donate to personal evacuation funds, I think it is crucial to keep in mind that these individuals as well as millions more in Gaza are currently actively in need of basic necessities like food, water, shelter, and medical care. Keeping this in mind, and recognising that there is no way to know when the border crossing with Egypt will reopen, I think our attention should also be on raising funds for organisations currently on the ground who will have the widest impact on the lives of Palestinians who are still enduring the genocide in Gaza.

Below are some verified donation links of organisations that are currently providing assistance for the people in Gaza directly:

Food, water, and shelter

Taawon has launched a campaign to provide support in Gaza through food parcels, shopping vouchers, fresh produce, water bottles and shelter tents.

Watermelon Relief is a project initiated and implemented by a group of activists in Gaza, who work to provide aid to displaced families in Gaza through meals, support and activities.

World Food Programme (WFP) managed to provide assistance to more than 1 million people in Gaza in May by delivering food in shelters, makeshift camps and shops.

Life for Gaza is an initiative through which the Municipality of Gaza aims to provide basic necessities for the people of Gaza such as water projects, waste collection and the reconstruction of roads.

Arab Group for the Protection of Nature (APN) is working to plant farmlands in Gaza through their “Revive Gaza Farmlands” project, through which they had already started planting vegetables, fruits and leafy greens in Gaza.

Purchasing eSIMs is one of the only remaining ways to keep Gazans connected with the outside world, to get their stories out or even enable them to call for help after Israeli strikes.

The Sameer Project is a donation based aid initiative that provides tents, cash aid, diapers and formula for displaced families in Gaza.

Care For Gaza is an organisation that works to provide essential aid such as food packages and cash to deliver to displaced families in Gaza.

Palestine Children’s Relief Fund, through their “Gaza Relief and Recovery” campaign, plan to provide essential medical supplies and treatments, as well as food and clean water.

Mutual Aid for the People of Gaza is a fundraiser managed by Mona in Gaza, who personally purchases and distributes basic supplies including food parcels to families in Gaza.

Help Gaza Children is another grassroots effort operating on the ground in Gaza to support families with food, water and clothing.

Medical care

Medical Aid for Palestine (MAP) provides medical supplies and supports healthcare services in Gaza.

Gaza Wound Care is a medical team in a tent in Nuseirat, providing care to children and supporting pregnant women.

Children Not Numbers is an NGO dedicated to providing medical care for the children in Gaza including delivery of medical aid and medical evacuation for children.

its been p common knowledge for decades that light pollution can be massively reduced by just putting shades on streetlamps, and that doing that would save energy, help wildlife, and let us see the stars better, but are society says if u wanna change any minor little tiny thing u gotta dedicate ur whole life to campaigning for it and this is a good ways down the list of priorities for most ppl, so instead i gotta walk past newly-installed streetlamps that are just dumb glass globes that use half their electricity to blast half their light directly into the sky where it does only bad things for no reason and think “we should overthrow the government”

But also consider joining DarkSky international , which can educate you on what you can do locally, and where you can also check to see if you have a nearby chapter.


darksky international has put out graphics about this, one of which i took note of because it got shared widely (it went around on tumblr, reddit, got reproduced in different forms on various blogs and websites), even though it is unfortunately incorrect. darksky intl themselves realized that, so for the folowing year’s dark sky week they shared a corrected version, which i haven’t seen shared quite as often as the previous one.

here is the first (incorrect!!) version:

A graphic made for International Dark Sky Week (April 5th to 12th 2021) comparing different types of street lights. They go from left to right: an unshielded round lamp – very bad, a round lamp with only the very top covered – bad, a round lamp with the top third covered – better, a lamp shielded so that almost no round lamp surface is visible – best. The night sky on the left is yellowish and doesn't have any stars, labeled "night sky blotted out by light pollution", while the night sky on the right is dark blue and dotted with stars, labeled "visible night sky". Under the graphic is a text titled "Bad, better, best", which says: "Use outdoor lighting responsibly by only using it where it's needed, when it's needed, and in the amount required. Use the lowest level light required, limit blue-violet light, utilize timers or motion sensors, and use shielding."ALT

and here is the corrected version they used the following year:

A graphic made for International Dark Sky Week (April 22nd to 30th 2022) comparing different types of street lights. They go from left to right: an unshielded round lamp – unacceptable, a round lamp with only the very top covered – very bad, a round lamp with the top third covered – bad, a lamp shielded so that almost no round lamp surface is visible – better (fully shielded), the same kind of shielded lamp only turned off and with a timer icon – best (timer / motion sensor). The night sky on the left is yellowish and doesn't have any stars, labeled "night sky blotted out by light pollution", while the night sky on the right is dark blue and dotted with stars, labeled "visible night sky". Under the graphic is a text titled "Bad, better, best", which says: "Use outdoor lighting responsibly by only using it where it's needed, when it's needed, and in the amount required. Use the lowest level light required, limit blue-violet light, utilize timers or motion sensors, and use shielding."ALT

because yes, the one that was initially labeled “better” does in fact deserve the label “bad” – any kind of convex surface that is not completely shielded will scatter light above the horizontal line (despite the graphic using a horizontal line, making it incorrect in that sense still), which is what you want to avoid!

a ray of light shining straight into the sky at a 90° angle will travel 10km and then exit the troposphere. a ray of light emitted at 1° above the horizontal line will, if unimpeded, travel more than 250km before exiting the troposphere.

corrected version they used

You know that post that was going around like a year ago. That said something like ‘hey you don’t need to wear any makeup’ and people kept commenting shit like 'yeah just a little eyeliner is enough’. This is how this post feels to me
