Another fundraiser I trust!
Before October 7th, Namer Matar and his wife owned a stonemasonry business, now destroyed by the constant bombing of the zionist occupation. His wife was pregnant with twins, and she gave birth to two boys in unsanitary and atrocious conditions in displacement. 3 months after their birth, both boys contracted a serious condition that needed immediate intensive care, but because of the zionist occupation's bombings of hospitals and the blockade preventing medical aid from entering, the care was not adequate, and one of the boys - Ali (named after his martyred uncle) - died very quickly. His brother - Zakaria - is still undergoing treatment for survival, and has special needs such as needing lactose free milk. They have 4 other children, as well as Namer's grieving parents, who all need to be evacuated.
Please do not hesitate to donate.

i'm worried that palestinian fundraisers have been slowing dramatically the past few weeks because people think their goal numbers are 'a lot of money', and ignore them.
so, as the one-year mark of this ongoing genocide approaches, i'd ask you to think seriously about how much money it costs just to keep yourself alive for an entire year. $15,000? $10,000? could you live off just $5,000? for a whole year?
since losing his job and his house to the israeli bombing, mohammed iwais has been supporting his 27-person family on gofundme donations equivalent in total to about $50k USD, or roughly $1,852 per person.
i am asking you to think about the reality of what this means for a family undergoing repeated displacements, bullet wounds, other medical emergencies, and now homelessness—in an occupied country that is being brutally price-gouged and cut off from even basic humanitarian aid by military border blockades.
mohammed's fundraising goal has not yet been met, and he's going to update his gfm page to reflect that as soon as he gets a stable internet connection. until then, there's really only one question.
could you live off what the iwais family has raised so far?

There is something irritating about the Fandom tendency to see, like... an experience a character has that's either explicitly or heavily implied to be about another axis of oppression (i.e. race, disability) and make it a Trans Thing. Saying this as a trans person I love trans headcanons. But sometimes it's not about you, white they

My best advice to anyone is to get into Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure, it trains your suspension of disbelief to reach such an astounding level that you will never make fun of anything for being corny or over the top again and that’s just a better, brighter way to see the world tbh

Really the kicker about discussing colonialism intrinsic to certain fictional tropes/archetypes/genres/what-have-you is that white bitches et al get SO mad about it. "Ohh so I'm not allowed to play farming sims? Wearing a silly hat makes me a fascist now?" I was just exercising critical thought but yknow what? Just for you? Yeah it does

it’s kind of weird how you’re all parroting “transgender operations on illegal aliens in prison” to make joke about like, fictional aliens in space

rules for life are
never become invested in a celebrity to the point where it'd throw off your life if they turned out to be a horrible person
never let a video game use artificial scarcity to trick you into doing something that isnt fun
never develop any genuine fondness for an ad campaign

Hello guys
I come to you with my heart full of sadness and exhaustion. Every day is worse than the last, and life conditions are worse than people imagine. I hope that whoever hears my voice and reads my story can imagine life there, without treatment, care, or health.
I hope you can help me with my husband's family. Some of them lost their feet and hands, some needed prosthetic limbs, and some were receiving treatment in the hospital.

please help if you can!

trump makes a blatantly lying comment about how haitian immigrants are eating “pets” and the white left is frothing at the mouth to turn it into a “hahaha funny meme”, without thinking of the horrific implications that a statement stating black people are coming to eat [inferred: white] people’s pets went unchallenged and is now actively being spread as a “joke”.
