Day 6: Curse!AU. This was inspired by @halveablock‘s amazing curse (Gojo) au concept (with my own spin to it, I guess… deep down I’m just a softie is all)! If some of you haven’t seen that yet, what are you waiting for?? I’m actually low-key embarrassed to post this, lmao. But I have procrastinated long enough… :p

Relationship: SatoSugu
Characters: Gojo Satoru, Geto Suguru. Ieiri Shoko (brief). Yaga Masamichi (brief).
Additional tags: Alternate Universe - Canon Divergence, Curse!AU, Blood, Hurt/Comfort, curse!Gojo, Murder Soulmates perhaps, (past) Established Relationship, moral ambiguity - sort of??
Summary:
[While former Special Grade sorcerer Getō Suguru had been declared a Curse User, to be killed on sight, Special Grade sorcerer Gojō Satoru’s whereabouts and status remained an odd mystery.
There was no body to be found.
Neither did anyone see the boy ever again.
There were rumors, though. Hearsay. Stories shared in hushed whispers. And hillingly, morbidly, all of them led back to one Getō Suguru.]
Or: Gojō doesn’t make it out of his first fight against Tōji - he doesn’t fully die, either. Getō latches on regardless.
in about a week this new app called chariot for women is coming out it’s basically uber except all the drivers are women, and it’s only for women (or males 13 and under) part of the profits goes to women’s charities and they’re trans women friendly!! even if you don’t yet present as a woman if u identify as a woman they will give you a ride no problemo so yes this sounds really great spread the word friends
And it’s the children that pay the highest price. An estimated 85,000 children have lost their lives to extreme starvation alone. Every 10 minutes, a child under 5 dies of preventable causes in Yemen. When choosing what charities or goals you want to support during the last few days of Ramadan, I urge you to keep the children of Yemen in mind. And if you’re not celebrating Ramadan, or are not religious.. you’re still human.
These are a few of charities that I know of that you can donate to:
https://www.savethechildren.org.uk/how-you-can-help/emergencies/yemen-crisis?
https://www.muslimglobalrelief.org/yemen-appeal (100% donation policy)
https://oxfamapps.org.uk/yemen
https://www.dec.org.uk/appeal/yemen-crisis-appeal
http://sharethemeal.org
Remember, it’s the smallest donations that build up or even just rebloging/sharing would help. May Allah smile upon us all, and relieve the children of this world of their heartache.

i've said this before but it bears repeating: a concerning amount of information circulating on this website about islam directed towards non-muslims comes from conservative sources and paints a very specific and narrow image of an extremely diverse religion. outsiders have this fictitious understanding of a monolithic islam, and somehow it is always the most dogmatic and overzealous and inflexible version of religion they can think of.
the reality of things is that like with all organized religion, there are muslims who are very strict in their practices and interpretations, and there are people who were born in muslim families and are influenced by islamic culture but are not religious, and there is a whole spectrum of beliefs in between these two extremes. this isn't even touching on the matter of different sects and ethno-cultural divergences.
i don't like making direct comparisons, but this is the language most anglophone westerners understand: if all the information about christianity you received was from evangelicals, you would have an incredibly biased conception of the daily life and beliefs of the average christian. you would also have an extremely problematic understanding of christian dogma - and i do mean problematic here as in something that causes problems, something that has harmful consequences. i understand and appreciate that people are usually walking on eggshells when handling issues of marginalized and stigmatized religions, but let's be bluntly open for a second: all organized religions have extremist ideological currents whose tenets directly contradict core progressive and liberatory ideas. accepting those tenets as valid and respectable in the name of battling bigotry is counterproductive and reverberates badly first and foremost on minorities.
the uncritical propagation of conservative (and sometimes straight up fundamentalist) conceptions of islam among non-muslims, especially in fandom/creative spaces that are concerned with political correctness and a genuine will for accurate and respectful representation, feeds a vicious cycle of insidious islamophobia: supposedly progressive depictions of muslims confirm the previously internalized bias that all muslims are indeed Like This, and said bias is what makes people swallow literal wahhabi propaganda without blinking in the first place, rinse and repeat.
this point of this post is not to embolden white people to start commenting on intra-community issues; rather it is a plea for people to be a little bit more critical, a little bit more analytically active in their consumption of information. may i suggest, accessorily, interacting with muslims in other contexts than just uhhh "learning". none of my white friends pull this shit, mostly because they have hung out with us enough to internalize the notion that we are... human beings, with a vast array of political and spiritual beliefs.
