DON’T SKIP, PLEASE I BEG YOU.

Please, I beg you — don’t scroll past this.

My baby boy, Qais, is only two years old, and famine is slowly killing him. His little body is shrinking day by day, his ribs showing through his thin skin, and every moment feels like a race against death. I am pleading with you — donate, share, speak out. Your help could be the reason my child survives.

The famine in Gaza is not a natural disaster; it is man-made, created by unbearable conditions:

1- A suffocating blockade: that prevents food, clean water, and medicine from reaching us.

2- Destroyed farmlands and contaminated water: due to relentless bombings, leaving us with nothing to eat or drink.

3- A collapsed health system, where starving children receive no medical care, making even minor illnesses deadly.

I am a desperate mother begging you - please don’t let Qais become another silent victim. His life is hanging by a thread, and every second matters. Share his story, speak for him, help us get food and medicine. Even the smallest act of kindness could save his life. Please… don’t let my little boy die like this.

PLEASE DONATE HERE

If Qais was your only child, would you leave him to face his fate alone?

DONATE HERE PLEASE

DON'T SKIP, I BEG YOU ✋🚨 you're the only hope to save a child😔😭

... i think a lot of people still see gender as a static thing in fiction, even if they're queer themselves. like, they think "this character who uses he/him and is a referred to as a boy in canon can't possibly be a trans girl! that would be problematic and transphobic!"

and like... did they forget, that there's a process? that trans people don't pop out of the womb with a pride flag and a pronoun pin and everything figured out? that being transgender implies that the gender, will, at some point, trans...? and that... the characters we write can mirror those experiences? and can still be positive representation without having to be a perfect mascot for cis people's approval?

i feel like it's... a similar kind of thought process to "this character was a minor once so you can't sexualize them". like, "this character was a boy once so you can't she/her them". but i don't know......

In America, “Lemonade” refers to a drink made with lemon juice, water, and usually a sweetener of some type.

In England, “Lemonade” is a fizzy drink more akin to Sprite or 7-Up.

In Japan, there’s a drink called “Ramune”, which is a japanification of the word “Lemonade” but it takes its meaning from England, so it’s a fizzy drink - though lemon is probably the hardest flavour to find, and it comes in almost and fruit you can imagine, as well as matcha and yogurt flavours. I have tried most of these. There are multiple companies that make Ramune and while the iconic bottle shape is nearly identical, the packaging is different.

Yesterday I went to a Chinese restaurant, in America for context, and on the counter as you walked in were three Ramune bottles, in pink, blue, and yellow. I didn’t have the time as I walked by to see what flavours they were, and I couldn’t tell by the colour of the soda inside either, so when I sat down I asked for a “Pink Ramune.”

Our waiter, an older Chinese man in a stylish vest, told us he didn’t have any pink, just yellow, so I figured they were out of the pink and blue and said “alright, that’s fine.” not having known what flavours any of them were anyways, and able to enjoy any except matcha, which tastes like burnt seaweed soda.

He comes back to the table with a can of Minute Maid Lemonade, taking us full circle. It was so funny I didn’t even protest and accepted my role, because technically if you think about it he brought me the “right” drink.

a lot of people think of being trans as a choice between being a man vs being a woman but the way it actually works for me it's more a choice between being a woman vs being an empty shell of a person

It will never not baffle me how hard society tries to insist that fatness is an abnormality. The average western woman wears plus size clothing. One of the smallest garments on the scale is called a medium. Most people with anorexia are in the overweight bmi category, yet somehow that's known as "atypical anorexia". Fatness is often labeled the cause of a number of diseases, but there are literally no diseases exclusive to fat bodies. Looking at movies and television, you'd think the world was 98% thin people. It's not.

My point isn't that if it was pretty rare to be fat, fatphobia would be okay. Of course not.

My point is that we're surrounded by all these artificial indicators that fatness is unnatural and uncommon and it's just not true?? Humans are not always thin and we've never all been thin and we're not all meant to be thin. Fat humans are a normal type of human. Fatness is a feature, not a bug.

the thing about the executive order calling for the institutionalization of mentally ill people and people with addictions who "cannot care for themselves" is that someone like me, despite being mentally ill and unable to care for myself, is low risk. i have an apartment, i have caregivers, i have involved family. someone in my situation or similar is unlikely to wind up institutionalized because of this executive order.

the people who are most likely to wind up institutionalized because of this executive order are people experiencing domestic violence, and people who are currently homeless. this order instructs state governments that they can apply laws around institutionalization extremely loosely to cover just about any homeless person. the explicit text of the order talks about "fighting vagrancy." this loose interpretation can also be used when abusers seek to have their victims institutionalized, and will allow laws preventing that to be loosened.

this is not an order saying that every single mentally ill/disabled person will be institutionalized. this order is part of the war on the poorest americans, the most vulnerable. this is class warfare, as waged by democratic and republican state and local governments alike since the supreme court grants pass decision.

to respond to this order effectively, we (housed mentally ill/disabled people), have to show up for our homeless neighbors. we can't consider street homeless people a lost cause. they are our comrades, our neighbors, members of our communities. when i was more mobile, i used to show up at encampments with a cooler of water bottles and popsicles on hot summer days, and use that to build a relationship, start asking people what they needed, what would help their communities. look into unhoused organizing and activism where you live. there are people already doing this work. if you want to fight widespread institutionalization, that's where you need to start.

it’s actually a little insane how even just ten years ago on this website there was a massive cultural push to Always use a trans person’s pronouns correctly and Always gender us correctly — when did that change to be “call everybody ‘they’ and ‘dude,’ and if somebody doesn’t like it, that’s their fault for not being gender neutral enough, and you can/should openly mock them for asking to be referred to differently”. what the fuck happened & why are you all so ok with being transphobic?

trans women in dire need of your help

(cat photo to grab attention. it's my friend's cat)

please don't scroll away. im going to be without phone service very soon. then rent is right around the corner. lots of bills. our truck is still broken down. we haven't been to a laundromat in two months. my prescriptions have been cancelled for my meds because i haven't been able to pay for them for too long. my girlfriend has been giving me hers but she's running out in a week too. even if i could afford it now id need to go to the doctor to get them re-prescribed, which means the truck needs fixing. at this rate we won't even make a single bill.

we've both been unemployed for over a year now, not for lack of trying. our last employed roommate lost his job a couple months ago. it's dire. it's so, so, so fucking dire.

please. if there's anything you can do to help, anything you can give... please. im sorry we have to do this so often. im sorry.

ill put my links here. im sorry. thank you.
