Iām slow to catch up on messages. He/ Him(cishet) Autistic. |Minor (16) | Fellow Traveler Currently trapped in the genocidal hellhole that is the United States.My funds are depleted and Iām currently unable to donate.
To anyone who I promised to donate a certain amount to and either got less than that amount or none at all, I apologize. I overestimated how much I could give to many different people and I was so overwhelmed by the amount of messages coming in that I didnāt take the time to think rationally about how much I could realistically give. I am deeply sorry for my incompetence. If anyone would like to link their fundraiser in the replies, Iād be happy to share and reblog. Iāll be taking some time away from answering messages to get myself in a better mental state so I can more effectively help. Thank you for reading.
A Plea from the Heart: I Am Fatima, and This Is My Story
My name is Fatima, a teacher from Gaza. I used to work in a small school I loved dearly, planting hope in the hearts of children and teaching them that tomorrow could be better. But the war took everything away. My school was bombed, I lost my job, and our home was reduced to rubble. Yet, I refused to give up. I set up a small tent amid the destruction and continued teaching children, showing them that knowledge is a light that cannot be extinguished, even in the darkest times.
My husband, Akram, was my partner and pillar of support. But he was severely injured in an attack targeting civilians. His abdominal injuries are so severe that he can no longer work or even lift basic items. Every day, I see the pain in his eyes and feel the weight of helplessness, but I try to stay strong for him and for our children.
Our eldest, Manar, is four years old, and sheās missing out on her childhood amidst this devastation. Our youngest, Ibrahim, was born under bombardment just a year ago. He has suffered greatly due to the lack of milk and proper medical care. Yet, sometimes, he smiles, and in those brief moments, I find the strength to keep going.
We now live in a fragile tent that doesnāt shield us from the cold or rain. Every day is a new battle for survival. I write these words while holding my childrenās hands, with nothing left but my faith in God and the hope that your kind hearts will hear our plea.
Please help us provide milk and food for our children, ease Akramās pain, and rebuild even a small part of the life the war has destroyed. Every donation, no matter how small, makes a big difference in our lives.
I ask you to share our story and be our support during this harsh and unforgiving time.

Zionism and its followers are incredibly dangerous. Zionists have become very good at hiding.
Zionism is a word that has been rightfully dirtied as society has woken up to its evils. It has been so dirtied that the liberal Zionists do not even claim the Zionist identity!
People like Bernie Sanders consistently repeat, "Israel has a right to exist, Israel has a right to exist," and condemn Hamas as a way to downplay Israel's terrorism, but they continue to call themselves anti-Zionists and claim to support the liberation of the Palestinian people.
How can you support the liberation of a people yet condemn the liberators of a people?
People like this do not deserve to be called anti-Zionist.
These may not be their intentions, but they are actively fighting against Palestinians by supporting Israel and its "right to exist" (note: states do not have a "right" to existence like individuals have a right to life).
The liberal Zionists always say that they wish for an Israel that respects the rights of all. Israel's existence inherently disrespects the rights of Palestinians.
The two-state solution is pathetic. You cannot take everything away from somebody and try to make yourself seem righteous by giving a little bit back to them. You are still a thief.
We must push liberal Zionists out of the Palestinian liberation movement for they have absolutely no place in it. The oppressor cannot belong to the movement of the oppressed!

š“ Between Hospitals and Fear... A Mother Fighting to Survive š
We write these words not knowing whether we will still be alive tomorrow. My name is Najah, I am a mother of six children, and I am living through days beyond what I can endure. I try to stay strong for my children, but I suffer from a severe deficiency in vitamins, iron, and calcium, which leaves my body exhausted all the time, yet I continue moving between home and the hospital without rest.
ā ļø My husband urgently needs surgery.
My husband is suffering from a severe health condition that began before the war due to digestive problems, but it has significantly worsened since then. He now urgently needs a surgical operation and continuous medical care that we cannot afford. His condition became even worse after he was injured during the bombardment while we were inside our home, increasing the danger to his life
ā ļø My child has had increased electrical activity in the brain since early childhood.
As for my son Ahmed, he is a young child not yet six years old who has suffered from recurrent epileptic seizures since birth. He needs continuous treatment, but the essential medications are almost unavailable in Gaza and, when they do arrive through the crossings, they come in extremely limited quantities, making his treatment unstable and full of risk
š There is no safe place left for us.
We live under constant bombardment, displacement, and repeated evacuation orders, with no safety or stability. My children live in constant fear, and we have no money to escape or even protect them, and there is no safe place for us to go. Every moment, we feel danger getting closer.
š“ Repeated displacement and losing everything with every evacuation š
With every evacuation, we are forced to leave our tent, our clothes, and everything we own, fleeing in panic, losing again even the most basic necessities of life with no ability to replace them.
š“ Childrenās suffering inside tents due to harsh conditions and illness š
My children also suffer from recurring health problems due to harsh conditions inside the tent, where rodents and insects are widespread because of poor hygiene and lack of a safe environment, leading to painful skin infections and other health issues
š“ Children are deprived of education due to familiesā inability to provide basic school supplies š
They also struggle to continue their education due to the inability to afford books, notebooks, and school supplies. The cost is around $200 per child, which is completely beyond our means.
šØ We urgently need treatment, food, and safe shelter to save my childrenās lives. šš„ššļø

Just your annual heads up, Northern Ontario is actively on fire with little resources from the provincial government to combat them. Over 144 fires on record, you've seen the fire from Armstrong and another from Collins, but several First Nations along the corridor have lost their homes and have been displaced. Please keep them in mind this season as the fires have devastated their homes and displaced them, some were evacuated to Niagara where they face indiscriminate racism.

Both the Nokiiwin Tribal Council at 384 Fort William Road and the Superior Inn at 555 West Arthur Street in Thunder Bay are accepting donations for evacuees. They've posted that they're in dire need of baby and toddler supplies (especially diapers and formula) and cat and dog food and supplies. (X)
āThe relationship between Blackness and disability is especially important to investigate, because it explains so much about how we ended up where we are. Just like prisons and policing are related to slavery, so is the way we think about disabilityā¦(Dustin) Gibson discusses the 1840 census, which was the first time there were questions about both disability and race
That census says that the majority of free Black people were āinsaneā and āidioticā, to use their language, while saying that the majority of people that were still enslaved were sane. So itās creating this idea that to be free and Black, and to have the urge to want to be free and Black, is deemed to be a mental illness.
There was even a medical diagnosis for slaves who had the overwhelming urge to run away: drapetomania. This shows that medicallization has always been a tool of white supremacy in the United States.
Raceāand specifically Blacknessāhas been used to mark disability, while disability has inherently āBlackenedā those perceived as unfit. Black people wereāand continue to beāassumed intellectually disabled precisely because of race. āWork in the Intersections: A Black Feminist Disability Framework by Moya Bailey and Izetta Autumn Mobley
In other words, white supremacy means that Black bodies are seen as inherently disabled, and disability is inherently bad. Ableism and racism are often used as pretexts for each other, which is why itās so important that we use for the intersectional approach that disability justice calls for.ā

Influencer brothers Andrew and Tristan Tate have been arrested by federal authorities Saturday in Miami, according to U.S. Marshals Service.
Some news in the manosphere right now, not that anyone wanted to know.
Apparently they are being prosecuted for additional sexual offenses:
The CPS has decided to prosecute Andrew Tate, 39, with seven further counts of rape, three counts of arranging or facilitating trafficking for sexual exploitation, three counts of assault occasioning actual bodily harm and 19 additional charges for offences relating to indecent images of a child and extreme pornography. The CPS has decided to prosecute Tristan Tate, 38, with one count of sexual assault, two counts of rape and three counts of arranging or facilitating trafficking for sexual exploitation.
For those not in the know, Andrew Tate is kind of notorious for marketing sex trafficking as an alpha male lifestyle
Americans can never talk about japan in a normal way either they go full fetishy orientalist while forgetting japanese includes Real people, or they blatantly forget that the USA is the primary reason why japan sucks so much. Like americans STRONGLY shaped japan's politics and culture by basically threatening them with higher forms of mass destruction multiple times in history like of all people, USA americans shut up. Meji era is on you and so is the bombs.
Like some "progressive" americans will see "Oh japan is imperial country so we can mask our hardly buried racism while trying to be progressive" like no. You can't. Cause America did all that shit. Twice. The rot came from the USA. Japan was an isolationist country still swinging around swords and minding their business till the USA came and basically said change your government and give us military positioning over china or we will shoot you all. America made japan feel so frugal and ashamed that japan felt like they had no choice but to basically copy the west's shitty homework because that is "the advanced way to live." Because the USA made them feel like their whole culture and way of life was shameful and primitive. The japanese said "there is no past only the future." "We have no culture." No one talks about how much shame the USA made the japanese feel about their whole existence.
And now white ass americans star in samurai movies and shit and have basically all the culture they made japan evict to the point where the whole culture of japan exists more as a famtasy for white people rather than something that actually has people and real history attached to it. Japan's culture is not even theirs anymore.
and combine this with the eastern technology scare racism that the west funneled into their cyberpunk genres of "Asia will take over the world with a dystopian tech revolution," when a large influencer of making eastern countries including japan, progress faster is in fact, the USA, after the USA (and europe) came in with mass weapons of destruction and made asians feel primitive and backwards.
Like. Whiter countries are the primary reason behind their own dumbass fears of the east. It just so happens when you barge in with guns, you influence other countries to retaliate or evolve to meet you in some way back. How can this be. Shocker.
