Not to be like “we live in a society” but I think a lot of people’s mental health would be significantly less fucked if they didn’t have to function in a system that forces them to think about their value as a human being as based on how productive they are/how much money people can make off them
they deliberately left out Danny Glover, Whitney Houston, and Mariah Carey and forgot to mention that Sandra Bullock and Jeff Goldblum have Jewish heritage
In a story important to Jews and Christians, they hired Jews and Christians
Also completely left out Ofra Haza who played Moses’ mother and is legit 100% Israeli.
You guys are fucking exhausting.
The Prince of Egypt: *consults with countless scholars from all three Abrahamic religions to make sure they were telling the story correctly, hires notable black and Jewish talent for the voice cast, taps the guy who played Coalhouse Motherfluffing Walker in “Ragtime” (a show all about racial tensions in America) on Broadway to sing one of the film’s most beautiful songs, taps the same Israeli singer to reprise her role as Yochaved in almost every foreign dub of the film, and is generally much more respectful to its source than any live-action Biblical epic released in the past fifty years*
CAF will help you pay for the procedure. They don’t cover the whole cost, but they can cover a lot of it, up to $350.
MAC will help you get to Chicago, provide you and whoever you’re traveling with a safe place to stay, and will cover the cost of painkillers, food, and transportation around the city.
There’s other abortion funds, some that might be a lot closer to you. These are the two I’m the most familiar with. There’s a list here:
Also if you are looking for charities to donate to, abortion funds – in your area or in an area you know an abortion is hard to access – are worth considering donating money to.
The great thing about fandom/internet friends vs. friends you meet out IRL, is that when you get to know people for the first time face-to-face, there’s this awkward process of trying to figure out juuuust how much of a dork they are, and how much you can nerd out before you scare them off. Like, you don’t wanna break out the real freaky shit right off. There’s always the impulse to hang back a little, as you try to gauge just how into a thing they are. But with fandom friends? You fucking met them in the garbage heap. You knew their fucked up narrative kinks before you even know their real name. They are screaming their passions into the void. Your friendship comes pre-loaded with already knowing the exact depths of each other’s depravity, and any ordinary-people-shit you have in common is just a bonus.
