when you’re a 14 month old french infant in a military hospital in the late 18th century and that weird hungry guy comes into your room
Hello, It's Momen Al Madhoun, writing from the most miserable area in the whole world, I am deeply thankful to all of you. Your support means the world to my family
🍉🍉🍉 I urgently plead you to keep sharing our campaign with your friends, family, and acquaintances
15 months have passed as if it were 15 years, and suffering increasing day after day 😔 Our health is decaying, we have NO IMMUNITY to fight diseases. No healthy food to feed our worn cells. Finding a quiet, clean place for us to get some rest is IMPOSSIBLE! I'm in urgent need of serious financial support so that I can take action and save my family! Our faces speak the misery we're going through! my children can't bear the ruthlessness of war life… pain and cold does not allow either of them to sleep 💔
I found in drawing a way to relieve stress and describe what we are experiencing, but even this i was deprived of, due to the difficulty of obtaining good internet and electricity for a sufficient time If you are interested in art, you can check I my blog I and find my artworks, i hope you will share them and support me to continue fighting and trying Every share and donation brings us one step closer to saving my family's lives. Your support, no matter how small, holds the power to rescue my loved ones from grave danger There are no words can describe how many times we have been displaced The situation we're living now is really hard to imagine Where do we Go?
Imagine the vastness of this universe, we cannot escape to a safe place far from the war
🌟 Our campaign is vetted by 🇵🇸 @/gazavetters List at #291
I just found out two local gay artists were found murdered in their home. fuck. jesus. I knew these guys. I own their art. I've attended so many gallery openings at their shop. they've meant so much to the community here. and they're just fucking gone? just like that?
and of course the cops are claiming it's not a hate crime.
They're wanting to change the definition of water to see which water would qualify under the Clean Water Act...I wish I was making this up.
What this means, in layman's terms, is that not all water or wetlands would be under environmental protections, so some could legally be dumped in, scraped out of, or otherwise harmed.
The comment period for this is pretty short (just a few days left!) so please submit comments asking for ALL water to be protected.
Verified campaign – please check the end of the story Hello dears! Thank you for looking at us so kindly and I ask you to support my campaign to help me achieve my goal. I am in desperate need of your support and to stand by my side. There is no source of income and my only brother was martyred. Help us and my family to survive and be safe. Gaza is a very dangerous place both in terms of livelihood and life. I need your financial support so that I can treat my mother, who suffers from an enlarged gland and chronic diseases, and obtain basic needs for my family, such as food and drink. We are dying of hunger until the Rafah crossing is reopened to transport my family to safety, peace, and travel. Please help a family survive through your small donations or through your contributions to others. Thank you so much for standing by our attendees https://gfund.m/594satkhi Verified by @gazavetters, my verified number in the list is (#168)

Here lies a being older than humanity's definition of the infinite.
You will find it, bound and bleeding, covered in cloth akin to translucent, flowing flesh anchored to the bed of a dried river, and when you first see it, it'll do just as it always has and try to coax you home.
Thin hands and silken feathers and veins of gold and sapphire upon skin so worn it tears just from the effort it takes to reach you, it wears an ever changing face made up of everyone you'd seen in a dreams as it tries- and tries and tries and tries- to hum a hymn in a tongue that you might know this time.
But you can't understand it anymore, and a being of light and ichor cannot hear the words of a being of clay and thread.
So you do as you always do when your bones are woven into new flesh: you cut it free of its withered chains and you bind each would as safely in bandages as you can manage.
It's skin won't burn you anymore.
You've been refleshed so many times and so very often against your will that you are neither mortal nor divine
And far too soon for its satisfaction, the being of starlight and sweetened earth and radioactive ichor is cut free and you go back from whence you came.
what I wish people would understand about fundraising for gaza is that while everyone is desperate and I would never say not to fundraise for or donate to individual families-- I currently fundraise to support multiple friends' families-- the overwhelming narrative I see on Tumblr that the best and most ethical thing you can do is send money to individuals and there is no option for anything else is so so incredibly damaging and inadvertently lends support to the marginalization and distrust of any remaining communal social infrastructure. the sameer project, which you should donate to, talks about this in a recent video they put out. the situation in gaza is unimaginable and everyone is in need of a huge level of support, and yet this fundraising discourse by well-meaning people in the west that donating money to individuals is the only moral way reproduces societal divides wherein resources are directed to people who speak English, who have relationships with people outside of gaza, and who have internet access while hundreds of thousands are left behind.
there ARE non-ngo locally based grassroots initiatives working to meet those needs however they can, and your small donation goes a lot further with them because they are able to buy food/water/supplies in bulk at a reduced price and reach more people with less money. again I'm not saying people shouldn't fundraise for individuals because these initiatives are so limited and many people cannot access them -- but as an example, the group I fundraise with is currently serving people fleeing north gaza who are starving and have nothing, and when we fundraise enough to do cash aid distribution there's so much need that our partners can only distribute 100-200 per large family. and then I go online and see people who have absolutely no understanding of this context at all exclusively working towards raising tens of thousands for just a few people when evacuations haven't been possible for months. it's good to do whatever you can but please consider how this narrative being reproduced among westerners trying to help that there are no other options has the potential to damage groups working towards equity and wider reach however is still possible
