Remember small donations really do add up. Any amount counts, even $1!

Other ways to help:

Share & amplify Palestinian fundraisers in your online & irl circles.

Organize/help with an irl/online event to raise funds for Palestine

Boycott

Get involved with a protest/strike/direct action in your area

Contact your reps

Educate yourself & others both irl & online, combat zionist propaganda

(you can even adopt 1 fundraiser campaign to regularly boost it & make materials promoting it online, or print posters/flyers about Palestinian fundraisers to encourage others to donate. (poster/graphic about gazafunds.com: here, flyers about esims: here, flyers about gazafamilyfunds: here)

I support the "fiction isn't real so nothing matters" mindset but tbf at a certain point it can tip over into "the curtains are just blue" territory

[hollowboobtheory]

like yes actually there is a conversation to be had about how a characters actions are framed and how they thematically fit with the rest of the story and it can in fact reflect the author's beliefs. some authors are even trying to make a point

[hollowboobtheory]

not all depiction is glorification but sometimes it is and you need to be able to tell the difference. not because your immortal soul will be tainted by reading The Bad One, but because you need to have reading comprehension skills

[milliebobbyflay]

something i notice a lot of in transmisogynist fearmongering campaigns is smth i want to call "malicious subjectification," wherein a member of a marginalized group is rhetorically granted the status of a Rational Subject, but only for the purposes of painting someone as a "bad actor" for actions taken under duress.

trans women are constantly expected to take "responsibility" for expressions of anger or frustration as if our anger somehow carries the weight of a cis man's despite us lacking any of their systemic power, we're treated as inherently suspicious for expressing non-normative sexual desires as if transfems aren't definitionally excluded from normative sexual relations, anything we can be "held responsible for" to create a permission structure for guiltlessly dispatching with a tranny who's become inconvenient with the implicit knowledge they lack to recourse to retaliate

(also, to be clear, this obviously isn't unique to transmisogyny, for example i think adultification and masculinization are often deployed to police black people in a very similar way)

[public-universal-sister]

Someone hit me with their car and I got isekai'd to a world that's really similar to my old one except in this one my collarbone is mysteriously broken

[violetsandshrikes]

every single photo I see of Kirby, the baby Asian elephant born at Houston Zoo, is absolutely killing me

I look upon this weird little freak (affectionate) and am immediately reminded of this post:

[technofeudalism]

[anneemay]

The tone of the messages that I have been getting from Gazans are increasingly desperate and negative. Can ICC end the siege? Can we talk about that. I know everyone is tired of boosting personal gofundmes

[anneemay]

And you must understand that for every sum they got they had to deduct up to 30 percent to account for the charge

[killy-deactivated20241228]

Not only that, but if you see a fundraiser that’s raised, say, $50k, it’s highly likely that that’s been sent in increments (banks would freeze large lump sums anyway) to cover food, water, the cost of a tent OR rent in a bombed-out apartment, medical care, clothing, etc for an extended family (Palestinians in Palestine generally lived in extended families even outside of these conditions; I use this example a lot, but my maternal grandmother in the West Bank lives in one building complex with five of her six sons plus their wives and kids…I can’t do the math on that) for an ENTIRE YEAR. Think about this. How far would $50k go for a nuclear family of 5 in a major US city? How would that family fare if they were all sick all the time because they lived in unclean and unsafe conditions, the cost of food was inflated beyond belief, and they were regularly uprooted? The most meager, dirty, physically and psychologically painful existence in Gaza is wildly expensive.

[el-shab-hussein]

The zionists' theft of aid trucks has caused a really bad famine in so many areas of Ghazzah that I have friends displaced in completely different areas of the strip reporting to me about the exact same famine-like circumstances. Absolutely no food anywhere. They've been looking for days on end to no avail and they're rationing what little they have left before everything they have runs out. I'm losing my mind thinking about how the world can keep spinning like this.

its no money november that's where it's november and i dont have any fucking money
