unvetted by anyone on tumblr but its been shared by shayma who is a gazan who evacuated a bit ago and is also fundraising to take care of her very large family, so i trust it. use your own judgement though of course

[schoolhater]

as we are all aware, the cost of the basic means of survival are astronomically high and only grow higher in gaza due to the blockade imposed by israel and opportunistic capitalists withholding aid (NOT hamas btw, this is just something that happens in crises)

this post will focus on suad ahmed and her newborn son, khaled.

suad found out she was pregnant only a week before the genocide began. she spent the entirety of her pregnancy under daily bombardment and the blockade, and now that khaled has been born, she struggles to care for him under these circumstances.

suad wrote a comprehensive masterpost about her situation here. please read about her in her own words. as of two weeks ago, khaled's health is deteriorating. she is fundraising for medical care for her son as well as daily survival.

Hello, my name is Jaber Mohammad Al-Dahdouh. I’m 13 years old, and I’m sharing my story of how war has taken everything from my family and me 💔😔.

"Hope from the Rubble" Hello, my name is Jaber Mohammad Al-Dahdouh. I’m 13 years old, and I’m… jaber Al dahdoh needs your support for Ho

I grew up in northern Gaza, where we lived a life of comfort and love 💖🏠, all thanks to my mother, Maysaa ❤️, who has a heart condition 💔, and my father, who worked hard to provide a bright future for us 🌟👨‍👩‍👧‍👦. My siblings—Shabaan, Hanan, Ahmed, and my youngest sister Ameera, our little darling 👧💖—were my closest friends, and we shared dreams 🌈, laughter 😂, and plans for a life full of hope 🌅✨.

I was a student 📚 at the Rosary Sisters School, part of the Union of Churches. My school meant so much to me; it was more than a building 🏫. It was my second home 🏡, a place where I felt safe and happy 😊💛, surrounded by friends and childhood laughter 👦👧💫.

But in a single moment, our lives were turned upside down 💔😢. The war destroyed our home 🏠💥 and my beloved school 🏫💔, and we were forced to flee south under heavy bombing 💣💥💨. We took refuge in the Nuseirat area, hoping to find safety 🤲. Yet even there, we were not spared; fighter jets bombed ✈️💥 the very place where we had sought shelter. I witnessed family members being taken from us in that attack 🕊️😭.

I share my story today as a child who has lost almost everything: my home 🏠💔, my school 🏫🌪️, family members 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦🕊️, and even my dreams 🌠. I am reaching out not only to share the pain 💔 but to search for a glimmer of hope 🌄 to help rebuild our lives.

I humbly ask for your support 🤲💖 to help me and my family through this tragedy 🕊️. My mother, Maysaa, is unwell with a heart condition 💔, and my remaining siblings and I need your support to rebuild from the devastation 🌈🌟. Your donations could be the only chance to restore a part of our hope 🕯️💖 and enable me to build a new future from the rubble 🏡✨.

Families in Gaza are starving because of Israel blocking resources from entering. The consequences of childhood starvation are severe and deadly, both immediately and long term. Malnutrition weakens your immune system and leaves you more vulnerable to infectious diseases, and makes it harder for your body to fight the illness, so the chance of severe illness from common illnesses is higher. Even completely treatable illnesses can kill you when you’re starving and don’t have access to medical care. This combined with lack of clean and safe drinking water is extremely dangerous, especially for the children. Malnutrition stunts your growth, affects your development and heightens risk of serious health problems for the rest of your life. Being underweight and suffering from malnutrition makes you cold more easily, and more vulnerable to hypothermia.

Can you imagine as a parent having to witness your child suffering like this? Fearing for your children’s lives from what would usually be a relatively minor illness? Hearing them cry from hunger because the occupation is starving them? This is every parents worst nightmare, but for Ahed this is reality.

Ahed has three beautiful young daughters under 10 years old. 9 year old Fatima “the closest to (Ahed’s) heart and my little one”, 6 year old Iman “the friendly, kind, and loving child who is loved by everyone” and little Nour, who is only one year old and has barely got to experience peace in her short life.

He campaigns every day to get attention for his campaign to feed them and keep them warm and hopefully evacuate when the border opens. We have the power to help Ahed and his little children survive this. Food prices in Gaza are extremely high and it’s difficult to even get water. Ahed and his family do not have adequate shelter from the cold. Donations can help him buy food and clothing and blankets for his children to keep them warm in the winter They’re already suffering so much from the sounds of bombs and repeated displacements, starvation and infectious diseases is another cruel consequence of the occupations genocide in Gaza.

I know he is scared and exhausted from asking for help for this, but he keeps going because his children are his whole world, and like any parent he would do anything to save them. This is his hope. I believe it’s our job, as the people who support and care about palestinians lives, to make sure the people who reach out for help know that the world hasn’t forgotten them. Please show Ahed that the compassionate people of the world will help him

Can any vital process take place without something being changed? Can’t you see? It’s just the same with you — and just as vital to nature.”

Winter is coming😬🐻‍❄️🌨️🌬️❄️

The Abu Alwan children are in need of winter clothing and supplies!

Donate to Help the Alwan Family, organized by Stephanie Uzzell

10/29 Life continues in Deir al-Balah, while massacres continue throughout the rest of Gaza… Stephanie Uzzell needs your support for Hel

Gaza has an eastern Mediterranean climate, which includes hot, dry summers and cool, wet winters. Nighttime winter temperatures can easily go below freezing. While this may not seem urgent for healthy, grown adults, it can actually be quite dangerous. Especially for small children, the elderly, and sick and malnourished people—which, after more than a year of constant famine and massacres, includes all of Gaza.

Last year, many people in Gaza were martyred due to hypothermia, particularly small children. The Abu Alwan twins Saba and Qusay were born in springtime 2024, they have never gone through winter before. They have no good weather clothing, and because they are also sickly and malnourished, they are extremely vulnerable to hypothermia.

Please help Saba, Qusay, and their 4 y/o sister Ghina withstand the coming winter. Just a single item of warm clothing for infants costs nearly $50 USD, the family needs your support to be able to afford winter clothes for the children!

You can support the family in 3 different ways:

i say this with love: yall will make yourselves feel bad about fucking anything, i swear to god. you feel bad about feeling too much. you feel bad about feeling too little. you feel bad about what makes you feel good. you feel bad about not knowing what you like. you feel bad for not being able to survive easily in a world hostile to you. you feel bad for the tactics that you use to survive. you feel bad for how you identify. you feel bad for being unique. you feel bad for experiences that you share with millions of people. you suspect that every feeling, experience, desire, fear, and question in your brain is somehow evidence that you don't deserve to exist.

i can be so so reassuring about all of these things but ultimately you are the one that's gonna have to make a conscious choice to stop measuring yourself in these ways. there is no authority who gets to determine whether you have the right to exist or not. you already do. there is no body that votes on whether you get to feel, identify, or think as you do. you already do. your existence as it is is non-negotiable. stop trying to justify yourself. you're already here. the world is going to have to deal with it anyway.

Remember that you and only you are living this life. No one can tell you how to live your own life. No one else but you is in your shoes.

[immigrantsun]

god damn. So much to sit with. So much grief to process. Had a convo w my friend about grief the other day. We ended on, to love is to grieve. I never want to stop loving, therefore I’ll never stop grieving. Vicious cycle to be human. But so much beauty in duality. Can’t have too much of one thing. Balance is needed. I guess I have not choice but to accept that. To grieve is to live. To love is to live.

I don't care if it's the best TV show of all time. I cannot be tricked into consuming a cartoon about league of legends.

[stealthetrees]

It’s loosely inspired by league of legends.

Imagine Spiderverse style animation with a plot about class differences, civil war, when it’s okay to abandon morals for the greater good, and how much evil someone can do before they’re not family anymore. Then throw in two gay situationships and the greatest soundtrack you’ve ever heard.

If that’s not your thing, that’s cool. Don’t disregard it just cause it’s league of legends tho.

[cryptotheism]

YOU CANNOT TRICK ME

[wavyanarch]

I don't know if this is gonna be a bad take but whatever, I really don't care. I liked the first season as it was tending more to the class war aspect (except that Imagine Dragons song) but I felt that the first episode of the season 2 kinda contradicted everything.

Become the oppressor etc etc. That last shot of S02E01 was... Cringe.

I don't want to thread into spoiler territory for people that haven't watched it yet but, becoming a cop? Really?

Pirate ships?

For all of our Dishonored nerds out here:

I have been working on my OC character in the current Dishonored campaign that I am part of.

My character is a pirate. Which we know that they exist in this world and that they hide on the eastern most islands around Serkonos. In DH1 Havelock also briefly talks about them (along with witch pirates?) when Emily prompts him to.

But this makes me wonder how do the ships look like. We have seen two type of ships in this world: Passenger ships for cargo and people (Undine and Dreadful Whale) and the whale thrawlers that we see occasionally sailing around Dunwall and Karnaca during both games.

But how does a warship look like?

Since Dishonored is loosely based on end of 19th century/early 20th century this makes me think (and seeing other ships' designs) that they would be ironclad types (see picture)

Ironclad warships were around from 1859 to 1890s (correct me if I am wrong). For example HMS Warrior (image below), was built around 1860.

What are your thoughts about this?

I know I've said this a hundred times but if you're worried about palestinian fundraisers being scams at least consider donating to MSF. It's a highly reputable organization which has broken its long-standing neutrality to denounce Israel in front of the UN. Here's all the aid MSF is providing to Gazans (documentation available in multiple languages).

[televisionenjoyer]

Since I know no one's gonna click on that link, here's a quick overview of some of the various ways in which Medicins Sans-Frontiers (Doctors Without Borders) is aiding Palestinians

- Since Oct 7 2023, MSF provided for 14000 hospital admissions and 7500 surgeries, on top of treating 27500 people for physical violence causes, treating 34000 people for diarrhoea (very common condition in Gaza currently due to the sanitary crisis) and holding 18000 mental health sessions.

-MSF is currently operating in two hospitals, eight healthcare facilities and fifteen mobile clinics, providing surgical support, wound care, physiotherapy, maternity and paediatric care, basic healthcare, vaccinations, and mental health services among other things (more info on the treatments provided by each facility on the link above). Additionally, they provide training for psychological, medical and paramedical volunteers, and donate first aid kits to various camps (info on the specific locations on the link above).

- Via their partnership with the Palestinian Agriculture and Development Association, they're building latrines for over 30000 people in six camps, distributing hygiene kits to 2400 families, and ensuring clean drinking water for 25000 people, on top of equipping a camp for 70 families with accessible sanitary facilities for disabled people.

- Since October 7, 2023, eight of their medics have died. Seven of them are remembered here, and their latest, Hasan Suboh, in this statement that denounces Israel's allies for disregarding the fact that the protection of humanitarian workers is not being guaranteed as they claim.

MSF does not only stand for Palestine in humanitarian terms, it also does so politically to an extent, holding Israel and its allies accountable for sabotaging ceasefire negotiation attempts.

MSF also provides aid to Sudan, the Democratic Republic Of Congo, Haiti, Ethiopia and 76 other countries.

[shesgayfolks]

To better maximize your donation to MSF, I advise keeping an eye out for donation doubling and tripling periods, which occur fairly often and can be checked on their website.
