Hello👋

Please take a moment to read my story.

I am Heba Al-Dahdouh. I currently live in the completely destroyed city of Gaza. Since the war on Gaza began on 7/1/2024, my family- my father Nasif, my mother Asmaa, and my siblings Khaled, Ahmad, Muhammad, and Malak-have been living in constant fear, crying, and suffering due to shrapnel, shells, and bullets.

We have no food, no electricity, no cooking gas, no schools, no homes, no cleaning supplies, and no clothes. My school has been bombed, and my brother Khaled's university is now rubble, depriving us all of education. The war has forced us to live in displacement centers, which are just tents unsuitable for living, especially in winter.

Every day we live death, terror, and panic a thousand times because of the ongoing bombardment of my city. The war has killed more than 50 of my relatives and neighbors. At the start of the war, we sought refuge at my aunt's house, . Imagine: we have survived imminent death more than 20 times and have been displaced among shelters more than 13 times. My siblings and I have suffered from many illnesses due to malnutrition, and we need medication continuously.

If we stay in Gaza, we might lose our lives. Recently, we have been seriously considering leaving Gaza for a safe place. However, travel costs are extremely high. We need over $50,000 to leave Gaza. Due to exorbitant prices, rampant unemployment, lack of security, the ongoing siege, and relentless bombardment, we have lost all our money. How can we live in such insecurity, with constant shelling and shrapnel flying above us? Dear compassionate friends around the world,

With your generous donations, even if small, you can save 7 people from imminent death, allowing us to start a life outside Gaza filled with love, peace, and hope.

With my warmest regards from the city of Gaza,

Heba Al-Dahdouh.

Please help me rebulid my Bakery

Vetted here by @90-ghost

I'm Ismail Almughanni an entrepreneur from devastated Gaza trying his best to rebuild his Bakery 🍞🥐🥖

On a quiet morning, the aroma of freshly baked bread filled the street, signaling the start of a new day at your small bakery, a place you took immense pride in. For years, this bakery had been a haven where people from all around would gather to enjoy the warm, delicious pastries and bread that you carefully crafted. It was a symbol of hard work, a beacon of hope, and a destination for anyone seeking a taste of comfort amidst life's challenges.

But one day, in the blink of an eye, everything changed. The sounds of bombing began to shake the city, and it wasn’t long before the fires of war reached your neighborhood. There was no warning, no chance to escape or save what you could. Shells rained down on the district that housed your beloved bakery. You watched helplessly from a distance, unable to do anything.

Minutes passed like hours. When the noise finally subsided, and the thick smoke that blocked out the sun began to clear, you looked towards your cherished place. It was destroyed.

The walls that once protected you and brought you closer to your customers had collapsed, and the oven where you had kindled the flames of hope had turned to ash. Everything was shattered, broken, as if that place had never been a sanctuary of peace and comfort.

But the destruction wasn’t just physical. The pain in your heart was far greater than any material loss, a place filled with beautiful memories now reduced to rubble. The moments when you saw smiles on people’s faces as they savored your bread, the laughter that echoed through the bakery—those were now just memories, dissolving in the ashes of devastation.

As days went by, you tried to piece together the fragments, not just of the bakery but of yourself as well. You knew rebuilding wouldn’t be easy, and the wounds left by the war wouldn’t heal quickly. But you also knew that the hope you had infused into your bread would remain alive in your heart, even if the tables and chairs were destroyed, even if the bakery itself was gone.

The bakery may have been destroyed by war, but its spirit lives on in you, in everyone who tasted your bread, and in everyone who walked into that small place and found a slice of happiness.

🚨 🍉The Tent Amidst War and Hardships!!🕊

☃️🕊🚨🤶🎅👩‍🍼🧏‍♀️👨‍🍼

I am Ashraf Al-Sir I appeal to kind hearts, please help me. The rain caused the tent to flood yesterday and today, forcing my family to face the bitter cold without protection or a safe place to go. My father is 70 years old and suffers from a health crisis, and my mother suffers from diabetes. I came to help me. The rain raged inside the tent, which actually flooded and was blown away by the winds.

the midst of ongoing war, tents have become a refuge for many families who have lost their homes due to bombing and destruction. These families live in harsh conditions that offer little protection from the weather, lacking basic necessities like water and electricity. The tent, although a symbol of resilience and challenge, also reflects the state of humanitarian collapse we are experiencing.🕊🫂

Let's try to reach 5000 as soon as possible. Every donation counts! And every blog. Please share and donate as much as you can!

I collected 5000 euros for rehabilitation donations for one year, but I only got 4382 euros, which is only 9%. Please help me to get the remaining amount.

I don't like doing this very often but I really could use some help buying food and toiletries this month.

No pressure. I'm not one to make massive guilt trippy posts but you know. If you can afford to slide a few bucks my way it would be really super helpful at this point because I'm between jobs.

[puns-and-patton]

Man the sanders sides fandom had some stupid stuff going on like 1 inch below the surface back in the day and we all just pretended we were peaceful huh

[puns-and-patton]

No pressure I’ll be okay but money is gonna be pretty tight for me until my next payday because my savings are running out so if you wanna help me a little with buying ramen and whatnot here’s a link to my ko-fi:

Infinite thanks in advance and if you can’t give don’t feel pressured to.

don’t know if i’ll make sense but Sanders Sides feels like those fanfics with like hundreds of thousands of words and like over 50 chapters that have gone on over years and that you start reading because the summary is really promising and at first the writing is great,, but then the author gets more and more ideas that derail and complicate the story and in doing so i guess they also start feeling more comfortable playing with the characterization, writing the behavior of the characters as whatever they want for their plot ideas that they can insert into this very popular work and losing sight of both the canon personalities of the characters as well as their own original idea for the fanfiction, falling into common reductive tropes with no end in sight.

and you began reading with much excitement because the plot seemed fun and the quality was great but then as you continue it just keeps dragging on and on and the writing starts to gradually lose quality and there’s not a single point where you notice this change but rather you start hesitating a little longer each time before pressing “next chapter” and start losing hope that you’ll get to see what you came here for instead of more ambitious additions to the already complicated story. and either at some point a choice is so egregiously bad that you give up and look for something else or you stay stuck under the impression that you’ve made it this far, and maybe the author will wrap it up in a nice way and maybe the satisfaction will be worth it in the end…

do you know what i mean? i know i’ve been in this situation many times with fanfic but i just realized that sanders sides gives me the same feeling currently.

'Love this too'

An anthology of queer poetry

[Image ID/ Two watercolor illustrations. First image is reminiscent of The Lovers card from a deck of tarot. It shows two seemingly naked faceless figures on a mound with some grass and the sky and lake behind them bears the colours of the lesbian pride flag. One of them is offering an apple to the other. The title reads 'Love this too - an anthology by Hritvika Lakhera'. Second image is reminiscent of the Devil card from a deck of tarot. Two naked faceless figures on the foreground are wearing chains and collars that bind them to each other. A ram head with glowing yellow eyes is above them in the shadows. /end ID]

I've been working on this anthology a while and self-publishing has been quite a journey. I wanted to have a consolidated volume with poems I've written about love, how it appears in the most mundane ways and how much I treasure it in all those ways. This isn't going to be poetry about romance, though there's a few of those as well. It's more than anything about how I've never taken queer love - platonic or otherwise - for granted a day in my life after I've had the chance to open myself to it.

You can get it on ko-fi where it's lower priced and also has an extra page: Love this too ko-fi

Payments from outside India will only happen through PayPal there!

If you don't have PayPal it is also available on kindle at Amazon - US , UK , India , Canada , Australia , Germany , France , Spain , Italy , Netherlands , Japan , Brazil , Mexico

There was probably a more compact way of doing that, sorry I've never done this beforeee

This is such a personal project but I'm happy that it's out there and I hope you'll all like it! If possible please get it through ko-fi, I think people in India should be able to pay through gpay for that too, or through PayPal. Leave a review!
