⚠️ Kidnappings for ransom are surging in West Kordofan — 120+ civilians abducted in just 2 months by RSF-linked extortion groups in Al-Nuhud, Al-Khuwai & nearby villages.
Families face multi-million-pound ransom demands. RSF command appears unable—or unwilling—to stop it.
Cargo trucks are also being seized: up to 5M SDG (~$1,000) per vehicle.
"Some civilians have been forcibly disappeared for a year and a half," says researcher Mustafa Abdel Wahab.

straight people like it because it gives them a preset & easy assignment for shaping identity. No real work involved. Just take an evolutionary process all mammals can access then make it an achievement 💀💀
Open letter to @GaytonMcK from SA Women's Hockey team player #ThatiZulu. An overdue letter. Both hockey teams have struggled over the years to get themselves to either the olympics or Hockey World Cup. The World Cup is starting in a few weeks and the teams are again crowdfunding.
Donations are not meant to buy obedience to the donor's worldview. That is blackmail and control. Anyway

I told my mom I wasn't attracted to a guy who liked me and she told me to give him a chance. I said guys don't give girls they're not attracted to a chance so why should I do it? Silence at the dinner table
Someone who wants to mistreat you is going to do it regardless of what you tell them. I think if victims want to tell the people who are close to them about their experiences then that’s an important part of the healing process as well. Maybe just not on the first date
This is why Korean feminists started the 4B movement.
“I will not give birth to a life that will discriminate against my gender. My own flesh and blood must not become a blade and turn against me. If the world born from my body oppresses me I will not let that world exist.”
Everyone talks about how famously difficult it is to cancel an Adobe subscription, and they still don't get why you need someone to protect them from predatory corporate practices.
anele was alive for twenty minutes after her fall and i think that’s one of the most horrifying things to come out this case. the thought of her lying there in pain while help was delayed is heartbreaking. may her soul rest in peace, she deserved so much better.
The responses to this is another reason we as a people have to leave women alone when women say they don't want kids.
It's the children that suffer it, every single time.
Another thing is that we don’t even talk to each other anymore. We don’t say hey you mis-stepped here or hey you misread this situation between us. We just write about you on social media now. We humiliate you.
Very tough conditions for openness and vulnerability those.
