some of you have GOT to get comfortable with lying and situational morality and i'm not kidding

[nourhamoda24]

My son Mohammed is in unbearable pain before my eyes. He cries from the intensity of it and cannot sleep, while I stand helpless, with nothing but tears and prayers.

This is not begging…

One full day without any donations means one more day of suffering for a child who has done nothing to deserve this.

The doctors were clear: without the necessary funds, we cannot proceed with his surgery.

Every day of delay increases his pain and steals more of his childhood…

Please, any donation — no matter how small — can help ease his suffering and bring him closer to surgery. Do not let an innocent child pay the price for circumstances beyond his control.

We are very tired ..

All that surrounds you is suffering, ruin, destruction, and pain.

I search for safety and comfort but cannot find it; every detail is painful and difficult.

I repeat again, you are saving the lives of a family in Gaza who have lived through war, famine, and displacement, and we are still alive.

I urgently need your donations so I can buy food, drink, and safe shelter for my children. Please donate now and don't wait until we are in danger.

I will not forgive anyone who is able to donate and does not.

I will not forgive anyone who did not share my post or offer even the smallest amount of help.

Please don't leave my children and family.

US holding Palestinian activist in ICE custody, family and legal team say her health and whereabouts remain unknown

Leqaa Kordia, a 33-year-old Palestinian resident of Paterson, New Jersey, remains in ICE custody after a serious medical emergency at the Prairieland Detention Center in Texas. Her family and legal team say they have received no information about her current condition or the hospital where she was taken. Witnesses report that Kordia suffered a fall, hit her head, and had a seizure on 6 February, but ICE has refused to provide updates despite repeated inquiries.

Kordia, a longtime US resident, was detained over a year ago after attending a routine ICE meeting, more than 1,500 miles from her home, following her participation in a peaceful 2024 Columbia University protest calling for a ceasefire in Gaza. Lawyers note that an immigration judge twice ordered her release, but ICE has blocked it using “automatic stays,” a mechanism that allows the agency to override court orders without judicial review.

Advocates warn that Kordia’s case is part of a broader crackdown on pro-Palestine voices in the US, echoing the recent detention of political commentator Sami Hamdi.

if you're disabled and/or chronically ill, i cannot stress enough how much you deserve friendship.

if your conditions make it hard for you to follow through with plans, you deserve friendship anyways.

if you use equipment like mobility aids, aac, ventilators and oxygen, feeding tubes, insulin pumps, etc, you deserve friendship anyways.

if your conditions make you have to cancel last minute a lot, you deserve friendship anyways. if your conditions make you have to leave early a lot, you deserve friendship anyways.

if you're housebound/bedbound, you deserve friendship anyways.

if you need caregiver support to hang out with friends, you deserve friendship anyways AND you deserve the caregiver support you need to enjoy time with them.

if you have a service dog, you deserve friendship anyways.

if your conditions cause "scary" medical episodes like seizures, fainting, meltdowns and shutdowns, etc, you deserve friendship anyways.

if you're disabled and/or chronically ill, i cannot stress enough how much you deserve friendship.
