Mostly I just REALLY need money to fall back onto in case something bad happens! I’m hoping to put back a couple hundred or more in cushion money just in case something bad happens (and if I’m lucky, perhaps enough to buy my ticket and keep me in a comfy place while I settle in).
I’m already putting back money from my job, though retail offers only so much.
i made a chrome extension that automatically blocks amazon and all of its child companies during the worker strike (prime day) and that can also be used to block any sites for future strikes in a scheduled way.
here’s the code rn, i uploaded to the chrome webstore but it’ll take a bit, ill update when I get it published so it’s easier to install
(i cant reblog this post but this was useful – it also blocks some more child companies not listed here)
again it’s only for chrome and i made it in like 3 hours so it might be fucked but afaik it works fine. just install it and leave it be, it’ll automatically activate on strikes.
a lot of you responded how youve never heard of srebrenica before. the best thing you could do, is educate yourselves on it, and spread the word. im trying my best to do it. the 8000+ innocent bosniak muslims, and their grieving families, deserve no less from me or anyone else.
today is july 11th, 2018. 23 years ago, a genocide was commited in Europe, the biggest one since the holocaust, in which the serbs raped and killed countless women and children, murdered over 8000 men ranging from a 2 day old baby to a 95 yr old man. they burried their limbs in separate and far away hidden mass graves, to make it harder for their families to identify and properly bury them.
its been 23 years, and on every july 11th since 1995., a couple hundred more victims get to have their burial. some families are lucky enough to find two limbs of their loved ones. most get to bury only a leg or an arm of their father, brother, uncle, grandpa. thousands are still waiting even for that.
its been 23 years, and the Serbs still deny commiting these horrid crimes, despite the 1 hour and 11 minutes of unedited footage their soldiers filmed in Srebrenica that is avalible even on youtube.
its been 23 years, and the world is still blind to the horrors that played out in the heart of Europe on the brink of 21st century.
its been 23 years, how many more do have to pass before everyone educates themselves on it?
July 11th, 1995. Remember this date. Be ashamed, as I am, of what was allowed to happen not that long ago.
Spread the word. Srebrenica and its horrors must not be ignored nor forgotten. God knows, the victims and their families deserve that much of us.
I’d like to add a few things to the post. If I’m wrong feel free to correct me.
They still haven’t found all mass graves and the latest one was found in 2015, 20 years after the massacre.
Also another thing the Bosnian Serbs and Serbians did against Bosnian Muslims during the war was mass rapings. During the war they would capture the daughters, sisters or wives of Bosnian Muslims. They would hold these women captured and rape them. It was a part of their ethnic cleansing.
12,000 and 50,000. That’s the number of women estimated to have been raped during the war. That was not even thirty years ago. After the the Balkan war, systematic rape and sexual enslavement in time of war became a crime against humanity, second only to the war crime of genocide.
That’s how bad it was, so bad that even men at the time agreed of it being a crime against humanity
Many people have concluded that these rapes were a part of a larger campaign of genocide and that the VRS (the Serbian military) were carrying out a policy of genocidal rape against the Bosnian Muslim ethnic group.
I also think that we should take time to question our self, because we’re always talking about the holocaust and saying how it should never be repeated; but it has. It was repeated in Srebrenica, in Burma, in Rwanda, in Cambodia and so on. It’s still happening.
I hate to be doing this, but I honestly don’t know what to do. I am genuinely lost. Please, if you could help, it would mean the world to me.
I am a senior in high school, and I am preparing to graduate. The only problem is that I do not have enough money to pay for all my AP test fees and class dues. Because I have no way to pay these fees, my counselor is threatening to refuse to give me my high school diploma and will not send my final high school transcript to the college I wish to attend. if this happens, I will not be able to go to college and pursue any higher education or build a future. In total, the fee is $500.00 if you could donate $10, even $5 to my gofundme it would mean so much. I wouldn’t be asking unless it was urgent. I have nobody else to turn to and i just feel lost and alone. I am honestly terrified of what my future is going to be.
