FASHION DESIGNA

Israel has deliberately and systematically destroyed the means for people in Gaza to sustain their physical health. 94% of hospitals are destroyed, and none can operate at full capacity. Life sustaining medications are blocked from entering and stocks are running out.

My friend Fadel has been hospitalized on and off for months now. The hospitals were already unable to remove shrapnel from him two years ago when Israelis bombed his house while he was inside. At this point in the genocide, he has experienced power outages from nearby bombings while being hospitalized for severe anemia and malnutrition.

Fadel (@fadell-aldany) relies on medication to treat his blood disorder. He has been unable to afford it consistently, and the result is constant dizziness, nausea, pain, and fainting. His family is terrified every time they find him collapsed unconscious that he has died. Now he also suffers from side effects from medications at the hospital that do not work as well. Please help him afford his healthcare and survive this.

I watch myself wither away in front of the mirror while my surgery is delayed and support remains elusive. Every moment of neglect weakens me, and I'm losing consciousness because of what I'm going through. Please help me today, stand by me before I become a mere memory; your kindness might ease my pain and give me another chance at life. I hope you won't forget me.

please donate as soon as you can. I worry for him all the time. he is so dear to me and he deserves so much better than this

Claudia was… everything. I loved her unconditionally. All the noise, the chaos, the crisis of my former existence, silenced. The simple joy of her hand in mine. You had a daughter. I had a daughter.

García II (1615-1660) is considered one of the most notable kings of Kongo, both for his religious piety and for having almost succeeded in expelling the Portuguese from the Ngola area.

US accepts only white refugees for sixth consecutive month

The Trump administration is spending more than $100 million to fight the "emergency" of "white genocide" in South Africa.

[stillnaomi]

Every single one of the 599 refugees the US admitted last month was a white South African, according to data the State Department’s Bureau of Population released Friday.

In fact, so was every other refugee admitted this year. Since October 1, 2025, the US has accepted 6,668 refugees. Of those, 6,665 were white South Africans. Three—admitted last November—were from Afghanistan. No other refugees were admitted.

I can't believe we live in a world where there's an AI company unironically called "Palantir," and it isn't a parody. It's a real thing. I remember seeing a picture of an advertisement on here and thinking, "This HAS to be a joke. This is too on-the-nose to be real. They wouldn't honestly name an AI company Palantir, after the Seeing Stones from Lord of the Rings that are supposed to offer knowledge, but famously also might be feeding you misinformation from evil sources because 'we do not know who else may be watching.'" But then here I am listening to the BBC News discussing why the CEO of Palantir just published a Manifesto that sounds like it was written by a supervillain.
