"My name is Matt Nelson and I'm about to engage in an extreme act of protest. We are all culpable in the ongoing genocide in Gaza.... We are slaves to capitalism and the military industrial complex. Most of us are too apathetic to care. The protest I'm about to engage in is a call to our government to stop suppling Israel with the money and weapons it uses to imprison and murder innocent Palestinians, to pressure Israel to end the genocide in Gaza, and to support the ICC indictment of Benjamin Netanyahu and other members of the Israeli government.... A democracy is supposed to serve the will of the people, not the interests of the wealthy. Take the power back. Free Palestine."

And like. I WANT IT BACK I WANT MY ACCOUNT BACK PLEASE IF YOU GUYS KNOW IT TELL ME PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE :((((
Hey, guys, my friend Shahed Muhammad @shahednhall reached out to me to share their story with you all, so please listen.
Pay attention, don't scroll past this.
Shahed is a 20 year old college student who used to study at Al-Azhar University and lived a happy life with her family in Southern Gaza.
But since the genocide began last October, their family have had to see and experience so much loss and destruction. They lost the family home their father had built, her education, as well a dearly beloved friend and their entire family to the bombing of the zionist occupation forces.
Shahed now fears that she might lose the rest of the family the same way too.
In her own words:
"My father is a heart patient and needs to leave Gaza City very quickly in order for treatment to take place. My sisters, desperately young and old, suffer from hepatitis.
We are in this time living a primitive life. We live in a small tent that can barely accommodate a family of 15 people.
There is not enough food and there is no clean water. It is all polluted. We live in the middle of bombs in the middle of destruction. Everything has been destroyed from the house of my father’s work and toil for years.
Imagine, my little sisters, they see death. Their psychological state has become very difficult. I don't know how I can review any example before the war, because they are children and now war is all they know.
We must help them so that their condition does not get worse, because they are children who tremble and tremble all the time. They see murder at this young age.
Can you imagine children who should be out playing, but instead struggle for basic shelter and safety?"
Currently the health of Shahed's sisters and her parents are rapidly deteriorating due to the lack of medical resources in Gaza at the moment. She has informed me that her sisters are currently staying at a hospital. I cannot stress enough how dire their situation is.
Please help Shahed save her family. They need your care and attention now more than ever.
Have you ever experienced seeing your dream broken in front of your eyes and not being able to do … Shahed Muhammad needs your support for H
This gfm appears on the vetted list maintained by @/nabulsi and @/el-shab-hussein (line #224) so please don't hesitate to donate and share.
July 6th: $8,071 USD raised of $50,000 goal
Their gfm has slowed down a worrying amount recently, having only raised $60 in the past 24 hours, when they are NOWHERE near their goal.
Please share, donate, and don't forget to follow Shahed's blog @shahednhall for direct updates on her situation. I want to remind you that recently tumblr has been banning a lot of palestinian accounts, so it is VERY important that you follow their accounts so that we notice when it happens.
Please don't let them be forgotten. They need you.
Guys Shahed just let me know that both of her little sisters, who as i mentioned earlier had both contracted hepatitis from polluted water, have taken a turn for the worse.
There are no hospitals left in Gaza where they can be properly treated in the long term and prices of food and other essentials have skyrocketed, so much so that they are unable to feed themselves at the moment due to a lack of funds.
In her own words:
We are a large family, most of us children. How many of us do you know that children with very weak immunity need care? We are in the midst of suffering from a lack of everything. Imagine that I am searching all day for food for my family.
Your family. Imagine living in a tent that can barely accommodate us because of the destruction of our home. We have nothing.
Shahed is the only one who can raise funds for all of them at the moment, and her gfm has been moving sluggishly for some time now. With only $9,670 USD raised of $50,000 goal she doesnt have even a fifth of the amount she needs yet.
She fears that she might lose her family if this keeps up.
She is only 20 and she has to carry this burden for the sake of her family because she has no other choice. Please help her out, no one should ever be in this kind of situation.
Please keep sharing and donate any amount you can, she needs these funds urgently. Please follow her blog at @shahednhall for direct updates!!!
I hope that everyone listens to my story and help me spread my story more. Donate in order to save my sisters. The war is more intensive. My family needs you. I need you and your donation will make a big difference in the life of an entire family. Participate in that.

I can’t prove that this was intentional but I’m kinda loosing my mind???
Genshin’s demographic really doesn’t match How I Met Your Mother but hear me out:
Ted, an architect. Well meaning guy but consistently down on his luck.
Robin, a news reporter. The first episode she’s wearing a sage green turtleneck. Her emotions are repressed because she had to grow up really fast and way too early. Now she struggles with affection and her dating and work life are affected.
Marshal, a lawyer. A stuffed animal of a man constantly cracking jokes and wanting to help his friends whenever he can
Lily, a kindergarten teacher while also being an artist. The mother of the group caring for the others while also knocking some sense into all of them when needed.
THEY ALL HANG OUT AT A BAR
Now, I’d chalk this up to a coincidence except for the fact Genshin has made sitcom references before. Specifically the achievement “Lizard Spock” referring to the addition “Rock Paper Scissors” from Big Bang Theory.
(Disclaimer I don’t think the entirety of their stories are based on HIMYM I just think it was like a little fun reference)
