I’m sorry I cannot donate anything. I do not have the money. The most I can do is reblog

[ahmed-motaz]

"I am a young child living with my family in a tattered tent. I haven't eaten since yesterday because of the high prices and scarcity of everything. My stomach aches from hunger, and I can't sleep most nights because of the hunger and the shelling around us.

[ahmed-motaz]

The image before you of our burning tents is heartbreaking, and we are here, caught between hunger and fear. Please d0nate, don't ignore our plea. Your d0nation can provide a morsel to satisfy my hunger and save a child facing de@th. D0nate now to save us,.please don't leave us to perish."

[chroniclesofchronicillness]

This makes so much sense

[random-fandom-place]

This accurately displays 'running on fumes' as well. Like, once you get to, say, 5% in your tank. Still 100% of your effort. This is such an amazing visual. Even knowing that my chronic pain impacts what I can do day vs. day, seeing this visual just really helps.

now all the things you guys have told me about american high schools are starting to make sense

[jeaninelatragedia]

holy shit.

[frustratedasatruar]

You're not really supposed to say it this way, because its considered crass, but here in the US children are culturally and legally considered essentially the property of their parents.

Note that its considered more crass to point this out than it is to treat children as property in the first place.

My friend Ahmed (@ahmed-motaz) is 16 years old. When we check in, I ask him how he's doing, and he describes his life in Gaza. He has been enduring absolute terror this week as the zionist occupation continuously launches military attacks on displaced families living in refugee camps. Ahmed's family is starving, and their damaged tent rips open from bullets and shrapnel from nearby bombing, letting in insects and rats. No child should have to endure this trauma.

[closet-keys]

Please help Ahmed to survive. Share this. Donate. Keep @ahmed-motaz in your thoughts and prayers, and wherever you can, push for the liberation of Palestine from the river to the sea. All Palestinian children deserve to grow into Palestinian adults.

[ahmed-motaz]

Friends, I'm pleading with you now. My family and I could die at any moment because the b0mbing hasn't stopped since yesterday. Shrapnel and bullets have just torn our tent to pieces. It's uninhabitable now, and worse still, my brother has been in the hospital for four days in critical condition. He urgently needs medicine. Please h@lp us and save our lives by d0nating so we can leave G@za and buy medicine for my brother. Please d0nate so we can repair our tent. Please h@lp us and don't abandon us.

im gonna be real, white ppl on this site argue and hold strong arguments over things that are ultimately trivial and interpersonal but never actively use their voices to talk about or boost racialized minorities facing oppression within their own progressive spaces.

[rabbitkinglune777]

with the perspective as a black person, tired of people on here using my struggles to be peformative while also not considering to lend an ear or voice to racialized people. especially racialized people who are also extremely marginalized.

Anyone can be discarded by society

[knifefightscene]

People get made fun of for being scared of aging but it comes from the very real fear of being discarded by society that’s why i always say the goal is not to never become old or disabled the future comes for us all the goal is better social policy

MY BABY HAS DIED. THOSE MAY BE THE WORDS YOU HEAR TONIGHT.

The doctors told me they have lost hope that baby Qais will survive. Tonight, they said they may have to remove the life-support machines keeping him alive.

[savee-baby]

I cannot describe what it feels like to stand beside my child, knowing every second could be our last. This is baby Qais's final chance, and without your help, I will lose him forever. Please help us before it is too late.

[savee-baby]

I am begging you as a persecuted mother in Gaza, watching my baby bleed in front of me, unable to stop it. Please donate now and help me save his life before it’s too late.

Please donate now Gofundme

[savee-baby]

I am standing outside the ICU, waiting for any sign that he is still fighting, but every second feels like a goodbye I am not ready for. Please donate now and help me save my baby Qais.

unfortunate that the united states has been very successful at controlling narratives around word war 2 and positioning itself as the polar opposite of nazism and the main force fighting fascism when america was complicit in the holocaust. not only did american press report positively about hitler and the nazi party up until the end of the 30′s, some publications cooperated with nazi germany, american companies had investments and connections to nazi germany that they maintained until american involvement in the war, and companies like ibm in particular gave nazis the technology necessary to make the holocaust possible in the first place. some company owners themselves had nazi sympathies like henry ford and others just saw it as a business opportunity. the us denied entry to european jewish refugees and deported jewish refugees back to germany, many senators and other government officials during the 1930s openly supported nazism and worked to prevent the us from taking a side in ww2, and during the 30s large pro nazi rallies were held across the us. american eugenics movement, american race laws and american genocide set the model for the holocaust and there shouldnt be any discussion of nazism and the holocaust without also discussing the extent of american complicity in it. 

anyways heres some material on it

tumblr users’ obsession with self-reporting (especially as a weird form of penance) needs to be studied

[deactivating-s00n-deactivated20]

you don’t need to tell the world you still like Harry Potter because it’s your comfort movie or because your dad read it to you when you were little or something like that in response to a post about the harm continued monetary support of Harry Potter causes. you don’t need to tell tumblr all the myriad of reasons you don’t like rap under a post about how rap is often misrepresented as ultra-violent or overtly sexual and misogynistic because of racism. No one on tumblr has to know anything about you. no one has to know you still read your old Harry Potter books or that the only rap artist you like is Eminem. No one is going to say “oh of course you’re the One True Good Person with a Good Reason!” when you say that rap is difficult to listen to because of your auditory processing disorder or you’re only a part of the Marauders fandom. Just keep your shit to yourself and don’t embarrass yourself under other peoples’ posts.

Epic diarrhea outbreak has 40% of Americans avoiding fruits and veggies

Kennedy has focused on nutrition but has neglected food safety, critics say.

All of this was entirely avoidable. None of this needed to happen, none of this was inevitable. 

And now look at where we are, because of the dumbest fucking people in the history of the world.

40% of Americans don’t feel safe eating food we buy at the grocery store, and honestly that number is lower than it should be. 

I will never forget and never forgive the people who did this to us. I will despise them for the rest of their lives.
