art will save you, being unreasonably passionate about something niche will save you, letting past sources of joy show you the way back to yourself will save you, earnestness over composure will save you, the natural world will save you, caring for something bigger than yourself will save you, daring to be seen will save you, kindness not as a whim but a principle will save you, appreciation as a practice will save you, daring to try something new will save you, grounding will save you, love will save you, one good nights sleep will save you

Israel has bombed the last remaining main fibre-optic route, thereby cutting off the majority of the Gaza Strip from having an internet access. Right now only those who have esims, will be able to come online and that too only for a limited amount of time. The updates coming in from Gaza now is going to be sparser, so I encourage everyone to diligently keep an eye out on updates. Also please keep circulating and donating to personal fundraisers. It has been two days since I last spoke to me friend, the journalist, Siraj Abudayeh ( @siraj0 ). The last time we spoke his primary concern was if he would be able to afford even a single bag of flour to feed all the twenty three members of his family. I would request you to not forget about him, and of other Gazan families who have been using social media as a primary tool to survive through this genocide. It is very important, that in a situation like this, we who have access to the Internet and hence to the whole wide world, keep boosting and campaigning for the fundraisers.

Donate to Siraj Abudayeh

Donate to crips for esims for Gaza

i was so excited to be apart of this project, so it’s a shame that it turned this way.

you had a commitment you had to see through to its end the moment you decided to be co-head mod. not only to the contributors, the other mods, and the buyers, but also to the palestinians whose lives would’ve been helped from the donations. the fact that the money has been sitting for a year now because you couldnt communicate with your team honestly makes me feel ill.

i cannot stress how hard the other mods worked from all that was thrown onto them, so a massive thank you to them for doing what they could. i can’t even imagine the stress that they’ve been going through over the last couple of months. it’s okay if life comes in the way — hell, i know my life was hectic during this zine — but that’s why communication is key. and that’s all that was needed.

i want nothing more for you than to grow from this, oly, because you’ve let a lot of people down.

An apology from me, as the shipping mod on the Cherry Limeade @cl-sasharcyzine project.
