I hate this post. Ever since I read it I can't help but think "chosen by the dragon" whenever the bus stops in front of me or "denied by the dragon" when it doesn't. Every. single. time. That's a minimum of ten times a week. Do you know how annoying that is
Adam Sandler has sadly become one of the loudest voices supporting the genocide in Gaza through the media. Do not watch his movies, do not contribute to his success—boycott him. On the other hand, there are those who chose the path of truth and humanity, like actor Javier Bardem, who refused to remain silent. He spoke out for Palestine and donated large sums to support families in need.
Where are you, people of conscience? Where are you, those with hearts and minds? I plead with you to stand with us. My family has lost everything and is living through the hardest conditions. We need your support just to keep going through the coming days—perhaps even the coming hours. Donate now. Please, do not leave us alone.
My name is Ahmad , and I am a 14-year-old resident of Khan Younis, within the Gaza Strip. I am reaching out to you in hopes of bringing aid to my family and others in our community during these incredibly challenging times. We are deeply humbled by the generosity and support of those who have already contributed, and words cannot fully convey our gratitude for the hope you have given us in moments when despair feels overwhelming.
My goal is to raise $20,000 to help cover the urgent needs of my family and secure essential supplies for others in our community. The funds will be used to provide for my father, (50 years), my mother, (42 years), my sister (16 years), and various families who are suffering from the crisis.
As winter approaches, we are in desperate need of shelter, warm clothing, food, clean water, and medical supplies. Tents and winter supplies are critical for survival, especially for families with young children and the elderly.
The cost of daily necessities has skyrocketed, and our limited resources are quickly depleting. Access to even the most basic items is increasingly restricted, leaving us to struggle against mounting prices and a scarcity of goods. The recent escalation at Rafah Crossing last May has compounded these challenges, making essential goods prohibitively expensive. Additionally, my father, who was the breadwinner of our family, has lost his job, leaving us in an incredibly fragile situation.
The funds raised will be allocated as follows:
* Purchasing tents and winter supplies for families in need, including my own
* Providing food and clean water for those who are struggling
* Covering basic life necessities such as medical supplies and warm clothing for my family and others in need
We plan to distribute these supplies directly to families in our community, ensuring that your generous donations reach those who require assistance the most.
Thank you for your patience, compassion, and unwavering humanity. Your support means the world to us, providing a glimmer of hope as we brace ourselves against these relentless hardships. Your kindness has become a beacon of light, helping us face the harsh reality of our daily lives.
With heartfelt appreciation.

On December 10, 1997, Julia Butterfly Hill climbed a 1500-year-old redwood tree she named Luna, to protect the tree from logging. She stayed for 738 days, only climbing down on December 18th 1999 after the tree and surrounding area were granted protection. (Source)
It is actually way better for 100 addicts to get their fix on pain pills than a single person in pain go without. I call this the "Torture is bad" principle. You should be able to get the good stuff forever after a single doctor's visit. If you're worried about addicts fund rehab centers and needle exchanges instead of torturing people.
The anti-mask brain rot is penetrating the hospital system in a terrifying fashion.
Masks are necessary for accessing central lines, and more and more nurses are starting to have issues with wearing a mask during STERILE PROTOCOL.
These lines are going right into our hearts and nurses are throwing tantrums about having to cover up their faces for 5 minutes.
This has not happened at my infusion center personally but I have mutuals and friends who have had to beg their nurses to put on the mask that literally comes in the sterile access kit.
I have a little insight into this. It's not that nurses are suddenly refusing to wear masks, it's that a large amount of nurses quit their jobs or fell ill to the point of not being able to work or death due to how poorly the pandemic was handled. The sudden increase of nurses that are not wearing masks? A good portion of them are new recruits, replacing the troves of workers who left the job of their own volition or because of the terrible circumstances. A nursing program can take anywhere from a year and a half to 4 years to complete, so it's not a coincidence that in 2023 after the pandemic of 2020 these changes are becoming more prevalent.
The job market sucks, and the good pay of a nursing gig looks oh so appealing due to the relative ease of entry for that kind of salary and high demand. I was in a VC with some people recently and one of them was complaining about how he wanted to become a nurse for the pay, but he would have to get a covid shot. Yes, he was outraged that he would need vaccinations to be around sick people as his profession. Do you think his first priority is helping people? No, it's his own financial security. An important thing for sure, but when people are so focused on self-preservation then a job in caring for others is going to end in tragedy.
Take from that what you will, but if you see a nurse not wearing their mask while treating you, refuse treatment because if they aren't wearing a mask who knows what other precautions they skipped or how much experience they actually have. Go to the reception desk and file a complaint after your procedure, call them out by name. If the hospital sees that a nurse is being rejected by patients, then their place at that hospital will fall under scrutiny. Remember, healthcare is not necessarily your friend, but any red flag that might lead to a malpractice suit gets the legal department in a frenzy. An infection from an improperly sterilized central line can be traced back to the team that administered your last treatment. Do not be polite, do not pity these nurses, scream for someone outside the room if you have to. They are risking the lives of their patients by doing this, they do not belong in the medical field if they do not even believe in the science they are practicing.
