Hello, my name is Hamoud. I am a small Palestinian child, only 3 years old.
My mother told me I was born four months before the war started in Gaza. 💔 That means almost all the days of my life have been war, fear, and loud explosions. I don’t remember what life was like before the war. 😔 I remember people running, my mother holding me tightly when bombs fall, and nights where we cannot sleep because of fear. 😢
Many times we had to leave our home and go somewhere else. My mother says this is called displacement, but to me it feels like losing everything again and again. 💔 Now we live inside a small tent. Sometimes the wind shakes the tent and I wake up scared in the middle of the night. Sometimes rain comes inside and everything becomes wet and cold.
But the hardest thing for me is hunger.
Sometimes I ask my mother, Mom… is there food today 🥺 Sometimes she hugs me and stays silent because there is nothing to give me. 💔
I also had a little cat that I loved very much. She was my friend in this scary world. 🤍 I used to hug her and sleep next to her every night. 😔 But one day there was bombing near us. And my little cat was killed in the explosion. 💔 I cried a lot that day and I still ask my mother where my cat went. 😭
Now I live in a tent with my family and we try every day to find food, water, and safety. I am only a small child. I did not choose this war. 😔
If you are reading my story, please don’t ignore me. 🙏 Your kindness can help my family buy food, water, and basic things to survive.
Even a small donation can help a hungry child like me. 🤲Please remember me.

we’re getting to the point where caring about misogyny at all or expecting men to disengage from misogyny and the patriarchy gets you labeled a vile misandrist who doesn’t care about real feminism
Intersectionality, a framework pioneered to discuss the experiences of Black women, gets mangled into “you have to care about men or you’re not being intersectional”
a very interesting rethorical trick the transandrophobia crowd likes to pull is to declare all violence done by trans men to trans women anecdotal while using the aesthetics of feminist language to frame the actions of trans women as systematically protected harm.
you can show them a trans man being a transmisogynist, by say beating his trans girlfriend, and they'll agree that his actions are violent but they'll consider this an anecdote. if you then go on to describe how he leveraged transmisogyny so that the girlfriend would be ostracised after responding to his abuse with a breakup, or self defence, they'll likewise dismiss that community as bad. examples are anecdotes and not representative, they'll argue, even if you're using these examples to illustrate a materialistic analysis of transmisogyny. that is, of course, if they believe you in the first place.
on the other hand, when transfeminists start describing the extant transmisogyny of queer spaces, they will frame this as a concerted effort that is part of a broader system that covers for the abuse that trans women commit, chief among them how we purportedly take up all the space in conversations about queerness, and how overrepresented we are in media.
there is a capacity to understand the idea of systemic harm, but a refusal to engage with the reality of it. the method of analysis is dismissed for the aesthetics of political deconstruction, refusing to face the fact that their beliefs are simply those of the transmisogynystic majority.
see, if you read this, you might think that there's some sort of tendency lately of trans women saying i hate men "just" because their trans boyfriend treated them poorly, which is a competent way to reframe the transfeminist position that trans men are part of the male political class with some of the privileges that this entails as resentment, a revenge of women slighted by past partners or friends.
and you are being told that this tendency is in fact part of a broader system of oppression of non trans men over trans men. a perfect substitution of anecdote and systemic analysis.
I am pharmacist Nassif Dahdouh. I spent my life studying and working to build a pharmacy that would provide for me and four families…
And today, the war has destroyed everything. All my hard work, every dream, everything I loved has turned to ashes in my hands.
I feel like the whole world has let me down… All the people I considered my support are gone…
I'm not asking for mercy, nor empty sympathy…
I'm asking for a chance to rebuild my life, to regain my dignity, to restore the destroyed pharmacy, and to provide for four families.
So far, the fundraising campaign has only raised 435 euros… A small amount compared to the magnitude of the loss, but it's the only hope I have left. I am not a beggar…
I am a human being who has been deprived of everything, and I will not forgive anyone for the betrayal I have felt ... 💔❤️🩹
But if you stand by me, if you help me, I can come back and prove that life isn't over, that the pharmacy can be revived, and that four families can regain their livelihood.
Your help is not charity…
It is a chance to save a life, a chance to stop the feeling of betrayal that is killing everything inside me ... 💔💔
Every day that passes, the feeling of betrayal grows stronger… Don't let this feeling control me any further... 🙏🙏
A lot of (*white*) t girl culture is so cringe to be honest. And I want nothing to do with it, but dam some of these cringe girls are baddies so I gotta look past the puppy girl stuff and the shitty breakcore.
