My friend Fadel grew up in northern Gaza. Two years ago, the zionist occupation bombed his house while he was inside. He had to be brought to a hospital in southern Gaza because the hospitals in the north had completely collapsed. He has been homeless and raising funds for surgery to remove the shrapnel from his body since then. Now the occupation is laying groundwork for three settlements in northern Gaza. This is what genocide looks like.

We often think about genocide on the level of populations, but I want you to understand genocide through the lens of a single person. The occupation has been bombing refugee camps all week and these attacks have been so close to Fadel that debris from shelling have fallen on his family's tent. Imagine your worst trauma repeating over and over and over. This is his life, always at risk of bombing.

Fadel's body is breaking down from lack of adequate treatment and prolonged malnutrition. He is in extreme pain all the time, and experiences constant dizziness and nausea. @fadell-aldany has been fainting from severe anemia. All of these things are the direct result of the occupation: the destruction of food and water systems, the blockade on medicine and sterile surgical equipment, and the attacks on doctors and hospitals. Please help him survive.

[fadell-aldany]

My friends, there is no ceasefire (they lied to you and to us). They are constantly bombing us. We miraculously escaped death today because the occupation forces bombed a tent next to ours. Please understand our situation, please h@lp us and d0nate. Our situation is dire

[fadell-aldany]

The worse, I am injured and my health is rapidly deteriorating because I cannot afford my surgery. I suffer from frequent fainting spells and cannot afford my medication. Please stand by me and h@lp me buuy my medicine. Please don't ignore me. Please look at what is happening to us.

A few years ago while trying to find ways to commit suicide as painlessly as possible, I came across a PDF of Dr. Paul Quinnett's The Forever Decision. Thinking it might go into actual methods of suicide (I read an article once that actually did that and was trying to find it again) I started to read it, and I think I only got about two pages in before I was crying too much to actually see the words.

I downloaded the PDF to my hard drive and I open it again whenever I'm feeling too suicidal to do much else, but not enough to start booking a ride to the hospital. And every time without fail I only go up to a few pages before backing off and choosing to live another day just because suicide suddenly seems even more unbearable than whatever the hell upset me in the first place.

All the book really does is [I'm pulling a summary from GoodReads here as, again, I've read no more than 5 pages] "discusses the social aspects of suicide, the right to die, anger, loneliness, depression, stress, hopelessness, drug and alcohol abuse, the consequences of a suicide attempt, and how to get help."

But it also starts with the author kindly asking the reader to complete the book before going through with anything, and for some reason I'm compelled to really just try to read it all before finalizing everything. Despite not yet completing it (hopefully never will) I think I can safely say it's saved my life at least a few times now.

It's intentionally legal to copy and redistribute this book to keep it as accessible as possible, and it's very easy to find, but here's a link for it anyways.

If I keep practicing I might even be a person soon

[lazer-exe]

I'm gonna say it, I do think that even the laziest person imaginable should have a roof over their head, food in their stomach, and access to healthcare

[retroactivebakeries]

the principal aim of lying is to accomplish your goal in as few lies as possible, and with the least amount of effort necessary to keep those lies going. It follows naturally that the world’s greatest liar speaks only the truth.
