Because I needed the reminder and maybe you do too: the best way to deal with political frustration is to do something.

A real and immediate impact you can have that will directly help a Palestinian is to buy an eSIM and send it to [email protected]. This allows Gazans to access mobile data so they can get news out and keep in touch with their friends and family.

If you have never done this before, here is a step by step guide, complete with discount codes. It is slightly technical but still fairly easy (imo, ymmv). If you can't/don't want to buy one directly, you can donate to Crips for eSIMs and they will buy one on your behalf.

You don't have to top up the eSIMs when they get low/run out, but I find it comforting to do so. It means somebody is still alive, and that you've made a hellish experience a tiny bit less terrible.

When I've seen El shab hussein and others do so much work to compile and make it easier for people to donate to verified gofundmes and others create raffles for them and using all their earnings for their art on gofundmes it makes me feel like it should encourage us all to do more and to keep doing more and not slow down

Artist Brian Coldrick’s series Behind You is an ongoing look at the very common fear that someone is lurking just out of your field of vision—perhaps prepping to do something not very nice.

A truly terrifying horror film would have the characters making the most logical, common-sense choices, and still getting slaughtered because the villain is just that relentless.
