ok memes aside i have some insight for the americans tonight as a brazilian

we had a similar situation a few years ago, our own far right asshole was stabbed at a rally and survived. guess what? the right organised and rallied behind it, he got martyred without dying. they turned that event into some divine-esque thing it was nuts. our political climate at the time was perfect for a far right storm, and lo and behold he got elected

it doesn't take a political scientist to see the republicans are about to do the exact same thing so stay vigilant, this is gonna boost his numbers more than you think

🚨🚨 Urgent!

This is Dima Nabahin, l'am 25 years old. I have no brothers nor sisters. I was living alone in gaza after I lost my father when he was injured in 2014 war on gaza. I was living with my mother till 2019, when she passed away, so from that time I am living alone in gaza.

I started to overcome what happened in the past, but my life completely destroyed since 7th of October

2023. I faced unimaginable challenges due to the ongoing war in the Gaza. unfortunately I lost My home that I was living in in northern Gaza, and also My parents home that I was living in with them in my childhood until they passed away. I was displaced from day one of this genocide. My life now is miserable.

Unfortunately, this plight is shared by many other Palestinian families living in the same area, but in my case l have no one that can help me, Throughout the months of relentless genocide, I suffered from constant fear and repeated, exhausting displacement that you cannot imagine without having experienced it.

Every donation will help me to survive.

I'd like to bring to you the story of Ola Ahel. She's a 26 year old mathematics teacher from Gaza.

She once had a bright future ahead of her, having graduated top of her class and with a budding career as a teacher. And no sooner had her career begun than it was abruptly cut short as the genocide began in Oct. 2023.

(ID in Alt)

All momentum in her life has halted and she and her family are now struggling to survive in the north of Gaza. She has very limited access to internet and cannot even advocate for herself as a result. In Northern Gaza, she, alongside her parents and four siblings, are facing a harsh famine as prices are soaring in the region.

Through all this, Ola is keeping her hope alive that she may go back to her career as an educator, and pursue her passions, teaching the next generations of Gazan children.

She is raising money in order to afford the rising cost of staying alive in Gaza currently and I would very much encourage donating to support her. Her fundraiser still is very low on funds.

right now, a hotel in kyoto, japan is mass rated falsely 1 star reviews by israeli people because the hotel refuses to serve idf soldiers.

this is the message the soldier had recieved:

if anyone is willing to help report the false reviews, it would help this hotel greatly. i think they deserve help with that for being ethical.

this is a link to the reviews on google maps

reblogs would be appreciated.

this was posted in an israeli group, so no non israelis know about it yet

I've had a chat with a woman named Suad and she's trusted me to share her story with you all.

Suad is a young engineer from Gaza who was excelling in her field, and had recently been told that she is pregnant. She had a bright future ahead of her until disaster struck and Israel and their constant bombings destroyed everything she holds dear.

She and her husband are now living out of a tent like many Gazans now. They have had to struggle to find food and water, and not only this, but Suad is also trying to nurture an unborn baby without access to adequate food and the prenatal care that a pregnant mother needs.

She is fundraising now to get herself, along with her husband and their family members out of Gaza. They require $20,000 to get out of Gaza and an additional $8,000 for transfer costs and living expenses in Egypt.

(ID in Alt)

As of right now, they have made only $2,732 of their goal and their situation is urgent. Suad is now nearly 9th months along and will be giving birth to her child very soon in very dangerous conditions for both herself and the baby.

Please donate whatever you can to this fundraiser, and if you cannot donate, I urge you to share!

gazafunds seeks to uplift stagnant or otherwise struggling fundraisers for gazans seeking evacuation or simple necessities. i know many of the images crossing your feeds today are harrowing and impossible to fathom, but those in the line of fire need your help, not your complacency. gazafunds also urges those who are able to adopt a fundraiser to amplify to do so (you can contact them via their twitter.)

Faten Abuhamda @fatenahmed, a mother of 3 from Gaza, has reached out to me and trusted me with her story. She wants me to share it with all of you.

Faten is accompanied by her husband, Ahmed, who is an amputee due to a previous war in Gaza, and their 3 children, Sama (7 years old), Loai (4 years old), and Yousef (10 months old)

This latest tragedy that's befallen the Abuhamda family starts on the first day of the war, nearly 8 months ago. The occupation forces struck right beside their home, and this is the first time of many that their family has had to evacuate where they are living. And from that day, their family has not known a single stable place to live.

Faten and her family have had to evacuate 3 times, and are now in Deir al Balah, but even that is not safe for them. They cannot afford to replace their children's clothing even. Nevermind the psychological mental anguish this has caused these very young children.

In order to make food for her family to eat, Faten is forced to cook on a campfire and the heat and smoke is irritating her throat. She and her husband are exhausted. And as the weather turns even hotter, they're forced to work under a scorching sun to make sure their children are fed everyday.

Everyday presents a new threat to their lives, whether it is to the artillery and massacres of the occupation forces or whether it is due to the horrible conditions they're forced to live under.

They need $18,000 to evacuate Gaza, and they've only got $1,449. Any amount you can donate would go to helping this family find a safe place away from the bombings, famine, and disease. Please donate and share as well.

i have lots of little stories churning in my brain so some characters from them earned themselves playlists as i fleshed out their backgrounds :)

the first one i ended up giving a playlist to was a character by the title of the sun queen: a woman once full of joy for life and nature who was unexpectedly pulled into the role of being heir for her noble household after her older sibling died, leading her to be betrothed to another character, the night ruler. being subjected to this life forced on her, she has an affair with a noble to take back some control and ends up pregnant with twins, one who resembles her spouse and the other, her lover - with her clearly favoring the child who looks like her chosen partner and hating the other.

her playlist is meant to evoke feelings of yearning for a life that couldve been yours, codependency and using someone for comfort and escapism without always considering their feelings, lashing out and knowing you were wrong but never really knowing how to fix it, and wishing you never had to grow up at all.

some songs from her playlist include:

• forsaken by paris paloma

• sonne by rammstein

• i want to kiss you by the spook school

• dear fellow traveler by sea wolf

• tongues & teeth by the crane wives

• working for the knife by mitski

• telephones by vacations

• me and my husband by mitski

• youre nobody till somebody wants you dead by saint motel

• strange by celeste

• goodbye, my danish sweetheart by mitski

• like real people do by hozier

• harness your hopes by pavement
