"Desperate, hungry people in Gaza continue to face the inhumane choice of either starving to death or risk being killed while trying to get food,” UN spokesperson Thameen al-Kheetan said in Geneva.
” But here in Gaza… we no longer speak of choices — because we no longer have any,” This is what @zinaanqar16 father told me
Ahmed, a father of four, sits helplessly as his infant daughter cries without tears — her mother has no milk left, and hope has vanished from his eyes.
He told me:
"If I stay, I die with them in silence. If I go out, I may die alone. But I can’t bear to watch them starve and do nothing." He’s not asking for a dignified life — just a piece of bread to extend his children's lives by one more day. Just one can of baby formula… to keep his daughter from dying slowly.
In Gaza, fatherhood means offering your body to feed your children. It means becoming a potential martyr just to bring home a sip of water. It means walking into death — only to delay the death of those you love.
What kind of world is this? What conscience allows a people to be trapped between starvation and fire?
Save those who remain in Gaza… before silence becomes a mass death certificate. Please donate help Zeina’s Family

If you voted, please don't scroll without sharing this post. Mosab is raising funds for his wife and three daughters to escape Gaza before it is too late.
Even after months of trying, 75% of the goal is unmet. Lama, one of the 4 year old twins, is sick and in pain. She needs to be treated but the family cannot even afford basic food. Even if you cannot donate, sharing helps this reach people who can help.
Even the smallest support can be the difference between life and death.

The European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) has ruled that the Czech Republic violated the rights of trans people by forcing them to be sterilised. Requiring transgender men and women to undergo sterilisation procedures in order to gain legal recognition of their gender identity meant the central-European country had breached international law, the court decided on Thursday (12 June).

The 4 other conservatives try to mask their bigotry behind legalese and logic pretzels, but leave it to the old fucks to just out right say what they actually mean.

so refreshing for someone to just straightforwardly name this pivot in how celebrities are being marketed right now

I don't know how long this will last, but all I hear is: Iran, Israel, America... as if Gaza doesn't exist, as if the world has forgotten the people suffering there.

disabled people are worth the extra effort it takes to accommodate them. it's worth going the longer route together that's wheelchair accessible. it's worth the time and effort to research places to eat that work with specific allergies or food intolerances. and it's worth the price if those places or that food is more expensive. it's worth going further to buy something gluten-free or nut free or dairy free for your party or get together. it's worth adding extra travel time, or planning an overnight stay instead of a day trip. it's worth learning how to administer medication for people who need it. it's worth learning how to call ahead to check if somewhere is accessible. it's worth the whole friend group going to the film screening with captions even if only 1 person needs it. disability often means having to do more work, more planning, take up more space, more money, more time. it's false to say it's as easy as having an abled companion, but that effort is worth taking. it's not wasted because it's all spent in favour of a disabled person, and that's always worthwhile

Palestine Action managed to sabotage two RAF planes at a UK base before they left for RAF Akrotiri on Cyprus. This is the location from which the RAF provides arms, supplies, and direct support to the Israeli military, including flying surveillance and target-gathering missions over Gaza. So, naturally, the British government is now moving to proscribe Palestine Action as a terrorist organisation, with Keir Starmer claiming they're a threat to 'those who defend us'. This is a desperate and pitiful decision, one that only proves how effective Palestine Action has been in frustrating the UK's support for the Israeli war machine. And as the song of the French Partisans goes, if they're taken down, someone else will take their place.

[ID: screenshot of tumblr tags that read, “#for transmascs who are uncomfortable with egg jokes it really boils down to. like #do you think of your comfort as more important than people who might be transfem being able to explore their identities #do you think of your comfort as more important than treating being transfem as a viable option for some people that they shouldn't be afrai #or ashamed of and should in fact celebrate and find joy in #or do you think being compared to transfems is an insult and your comfort and security in your masculinity as more important than all that #put simply: do you think of femininity as something to shunned? #put even more simply: are you a misogynist? #like. not only is it not about us #but as strawberry-crocodile has so astutely pointed out #being feminine is not the main criteria for being a possible egg and assuming that is what transfems are seeing when they call someone #an egg kind of does a disservice to transfems understanding of gender #sorry for the long tags i hope this makes sense”]
i mean the only reason egg jokes used to make me uncomfortable is that as a very feminine trans guy the idea that a guy being feminine means he must secretly be a girl made me feel not great but then i realized its like. not about me lmao

and for what its worth, there is almost always more to it than just "being feminine", as people seem to assume; things like dissatisfaction and a poor connection to one's body, which might be signs of dysphoria, and seeking out transfeminine people, are what I look for first. It's not running around assuming everyone who's feminine is a woman.

I'm terrified that I won't be able to pay my rent & bills this month!!
Wednesday, June 25th: Hello, everyone. I’m Gem, a bi, mentally ill, and disabled woman in desperate need of help, as I'm drowning in debt and struggling to pay my bills!!
I apologize for asking for help again. As most of you know from my previous posts, I have been struggling to make ends meet while on welfare. And due to my outstanding bills and ever-increasing debt, it has been difficult for me to get by. These past few months have been absolute hell, and with no other income, I've been relying on the kindness of others to get by.
I’m in desperate need of that kindness again, and I’ve been trying so hard to handle these bills on my own and avoid asking for help, but more keep coming in, and I’m on the verge of losing my electricity. I don't receive my welfare until the 30th, and I desperately need help!!
Again, I know this is a lot to ask, but if anyone could spare any amount to help me, even if it’s just £1/$1/€1, it would mean a lot, and sharing helps just as much. Please only donate if you can afford to!!
Thank you ❤️
£0/£220!! (£175 bills + £45 electricity bill)
✨️PayPal✨️
