AuDHD, OCD, 24, She/Her, Bi/Arospec/Acespec, Mexican-American/White Latina I draw, I write, I'm a fangirl and I'm sarcastic. What else is there to say?
How do I know if someone is trying to scam me? Caring for other people is straight up physically painful for me at this point. I don’t even have money for the things that I actually want, much less money for other people. I lost a fucking $5,000 scholarship and we now have to pay that shit out of pocket! Am I a bad person for genuinely being so burnt out and tired having to care and worry about the state of the world and everyone else in it, on top of having no money of my own, that I can’t help everyone? I make $600 a month in disability. Meaning I am literally UNABLE TO WORK. My dad is also on disability. My mom is our ONLY SOURCE OF INCOME. And we still have to accept money from her abusive parents. What part of I DON’T HAVE ANY FUCKING MONEY are people NOT getting?! Maybe I’m privileged for saying it, maybe I’m spoiled, maybe it’s first world problems, but I don’t care any more. I can’t help people anymore, and it hurts knowing that as much as I want to, I can’t. I feel like every donation case dming me and that one account that I’m pretty sure is ai is trying to guilt me, and I want to help, I really do, but I can’t. And I’m just so tired. I can’t keep doing this. Because every time I try to do what I can, more come. And I can’t even tell who’s a real person and who’s a scam I’m helping to spread and steal money from more people. I can’t. I can’t fucking do this anymore.
I can’t handle any more people asking for my help. I’m constantly on edge and emotionally drained as is. I just keep reblogging, because I’m always worried if I give money it’s just gonna be another scam. Me and my family barely have enough money ourselves. I’m not asking for anything. But I’m so stressed out because I keep getting DMed by the same five people with multiple accounts, begging me to help them, when all I can do is share their posts. Even when I tell them I’ve already reblogged, they just keep coming back with a different account. Maybe I’m a bad person for not giving anyone money. Maybe I’m a bad person for being tired. Maybe I’m a bad person for being suspicious when it’s the same five people on 50 different accounts. But I’m not asking for validation. People can be mad at me and send me death threats for feeling this way for all I care. I just want to vent my frustrations on my own blog, scream into the void rather than go up to these people and take it out on them. I just want peace. For them. And even though it’s selfish, for myself as well.
Stop for a moment. If you claim to love Palestine, my family is starving to death right before my eyes, and I can't do anything while you live in safety. Why can't you send us even $1? You say you support Palestine, but if that's true, you can.⬇️🕊️☹️
Hello everyone, I am Ahmed Al-Madhoun, 25 years old, studying for a Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, fourth level, at Al-Quds Open Universit
I am raising funds for Yesmin, a 27 year old mother from Gaza and a victim of the ongoing genocide. Here are her own words:
Vetted by association I’m ayoosha-stuff friends
Hello friends, I am Yasmin from northern Gaza Strip. I am 27 years old, a mother of two children, Sila and Youssef, and I have been married for more than 7 years.
I was studying Journalism and Media at the University College, and I had both a home and a job. But because of the war, I lost my home, my work, and everything I owned.
My family’s house was also destroyed, and now we have nothing left except a worn-out tent whose torn walls cannot protect us from the heat of summer or the cold of winter.
My husband is injured. He was involved in a traffic accident while trying to get aid, and he is now disabled and unable to work.
My children have suffered from malnutrition due to the lack of food and proper nutrition.
That is why I am only asking for your help and support. I am here trying to save what is left of my children’s lives. They are between life and death.
Please, try to support us and donate whatever you can.
If you had to navigate the internet in Arabic, could you?

Yes, easily
I could probably find my way around
It would not be easy, but maybe a little bit
I would have great difficulty
No, I would be entirely lost

If you had to navigate the internet in a language you didn't understand and couldn't even read, how would you go about it?
My friend Wesal (@deemagaza) doesn't speak English. The only way she can find her way around the English internet is by using Google Translate or ask others like me for help. It is very difficult for her.
Yet she has no choice but to do so for her daughter Farah, almost sixteen now, who is autistic and has a kidney problem that - without treatment - makes her deficient in potassium, which, if it becomes too severe, can lead to cardiac arrest.
^ Farah spends most of her days like this now, feeling uncomfortable in her body, but not understanding why.
Farah's medication has become unavailable in Gaza, which has endangered her life and means she has to be treated in the hospital, which is costly and where they are running out of resources as well. Farah's case has now been referred to the WHO to be transferred abroad. If the opportunity for evacuation arises, we must make sure the funds are available!
Please help by donating to Farah's fundraiser and by sharing this post! Farah's fundraiser has been verified by gazavetters, #451!
If anyone has wants to donate but has questions about how the funds are transferred to Farah's family, feel free to get in touch!
If you donate to Farah's campaign, you can get a free commission by @fablebagel! Thank you, Fable! ❤️

if youre in the US (especially the northeast + michigan) i would avoid bagged salads/greens and generally wash your produce very thoroughly unless you want the diarrhea parasite
Michigan is experiencing its largest outbreak of a parasitic infection that causes severe diarrhea. Nearly 1,000 people have been diagnosed
this is not life-threatening, but also who wants weeks of diarrhea and a fucking parasite in them lol. if you suspect you've already had this and it's passed, i would see a doctor. you might need an antiparasitic anyway. if you're actively sick, see a doctor and they might be able to prescribe medication to help you get over it faster.
try to avoid eating raw vegetables, scrub fruit with a produce brush and rinse thoroughly with water. again, don't bother with premade greens or bagged salads. if you buy lettuce, remove the outer 2-3 layers of leaves.
there are UNVERIFIED rumors that the greens have been linked to a company that sources to taco bell. some locations have been actively pulling fresh ingredients like lettuce, avocado, and pico de gallo to mitigate the threat, so i would avoid any products from them just in case. considering how vast supply chains are, i'd be wary of any fast food greens in general for now.
also note this is a PARASITIC infection. most diarrhea-causing pathogens you expect to contaminate your greens are bacteria (e.g. e. coli and salmonella), which are a different domain of organism altogether. cyclospora is a protozoan, which is bigger and more complicated than a bacteria (for reference, malaria is also caused by a protozoan). bacterial diarrhea can be dangerous, but you might also expect to weather it and survive unscathed. do NOT fuck with PARASITIC contamination. you should be scared of this one!
Only high temperatures will kill cyclospora. It resides in what is like a shell, which is highly resistant to water and most cleaning chemicals. The substance it uses to cling to food is so strong we don't even fully know what its limits are. It may be best to avoid fruits and veggies you can't cook. Scrubbing only works if done hard enough and on foods with no hiding places (Like cucumbers and grapes). Peeling the skin off is your best bet at avoiding it however, scrubbing is not guaranteed.
Thank you OP for posting! Usually washing does work on most sicknesses, just not this one.
Please help me feed my children. They are starving, and I fear they may die from hunger. Any donation, no matter how small, would help us buy food. Please don't leave us alone in this difficult time. Thank you for your kindness.💔💔💔😭😭😭

Hello friends, thank you for your support, but I desperately need your help and assistance. I am a father of four and a war casualty. I urgently need your help. The war is escalating daily, and the suffering is increasing. We are not receiving any free aid, and as a father of four, my campaign is progressing very slowly. Please try to support and help me. I cannot find work. My hand is injured and out of service, and I don't know how to use it. Please try to talk about me or share my story. I desperately need your support and donations.

Hello my friends,My name is Bilal Ahmad.I am reaching out to you as a citizen of Gaza who is suffering from severe injuries and critical health conditions that threaten my life every day. I sustained a serious injury to my eye and urgently need another surgery to save me from the risk of permanent blindness.
In addition, I have a disability in my left hand. Most critically, I suffer from a severe abdominal injury that has greatly damaged my intestines, leaving them unable to function properly. My condition continues to worsen, and the danger to my life increases with each passing day.
Given the current situation in Gaza, it is no longer possible for me to receive the complex medical treatment I urgently need in a safe and complete manner. After God, my only hope is your support and kindness.
I humbly ask for your help. Please be the light of hope that allows me to reach Egypt and receive the medical treatment I desperately need in its hospitals so that I may recover and regain my health.
Please hear my voice and give me a chance to receive treatment and a humanitarian opportunity to pass through. Even a small donation can make a difference and help cover my medical care.
Thank you in advance for your generosity, compassion, and support. I am deeply grateful for any help you can provide.

Please, if you can, support and help us. I am only trying to provide the most basic necessities of life for my family and get the care my daughter needs.Any donation, no matter how small, can make a real difference.Please don’t ignore our plea. 🥺😭💔

I'm here to tell you a few things. There are many haters and liars around, but I want to thank @el-shab-hussein who refuted all these false claims. However, You can follow up on this matter through this link click here
First, I'm the one who makes these crocheted pieces, and this is indeed the business card. You can see it on this page and contact me there as well. Click here
It was under our business name. But I lost the pieces and the business phone when my house was bombed.
That's why I'm here; I need your help and support. There are many hateful people here who wish us harm and genocide, but I'm striving for my dream and trying to help my family. These are some pieces of my work from before the war. I hope you can help and support us so we can continue living and alleviate our suffering.
Also, if you wish, you can follow the page on Instagram and view many more pieces of art.
I don’t know how many more times I can come here and ask for help. Every post I write comes with tears, because my mother’s life is all I can think about.
Yesterday, her condition became much worse , I can’t stop replaying those terrifying moments in my mind. Standing beside her hospital bed, watching her struggle, feeling completely powerless… it’s a pain I can’t put into words. The doctors told us she urgently needs this heart procedure, but we’re still waiting because we don’t have the money.😔
We’re only $600 away from the urgent heart procedure she needs. Such a small number to some people, yet for us it feels like the distance between hope and despair.💔
If your mother were the one in that hospital bed, you wouldn’t stop fighting for her not for a second. That’s exactly what I’m doing now.💔😔
If you’re reading this, please don’t close this post and move on. Be the reason I can finally look my mother in the eyes and tell her, “Mom, we’re going to make it.”
Please… don’t be another person who says, “Someone else will donate.” You could be the reason we reach our goal today. You could be the reason my mother gets the chance to receive the treatment she urgently needs. Even the smallest donation could change everything for us.
Please help us reach the last $600. Every donation brings me one step closer to saying those words to her. 💔🙏
🙏🏻"I'm terrified that one day I'll have to say goodbye to my father while watching my daughter continue to suffer. No one should have to carry this much pain."Please donate now, I desperately need your help🙏🏻💔https://chuffed.org/project/153965-urgent-appeal-kidney-failure-and-autism-threatens-farah
Thank you so much for reaching out! I’m still financially dependent on my parents and sadly cannot donate at this time, but I hope you receive all the support you need from those able to contribute.
Weird question, I know. But could someone provide pages or panels of moments Catwoman loses a fight or is getting beaten/hurt? But only when she’s fighting another woman, no men involved. I need references.
In a place where children no longer know what safety feels like, a mother is trying to keep her children alive despite everything 💔
I don’t know how I am still holding on...
My name is Najah, and I am a mother of six children, including newborn twins 👶👶 who need urgent care every single moment.
We are living through extremely difficult days filled with fear, hunger, and the lack of basic necessities 🥺🍞
Sometimes my children go to sleep without enough food, and I stand helpless before their tears because I cannot provide milk, diapers, or medicine for them.
My newborn twins are still so fragile, and their tiny bodies need constant nutrition and care 🍼💔
But our situation has become far beyond my ability to handle, while my other children face hunger, cold, and fear every day.
For many days, we have not received any donations or help, and our situation keeps getting worse with every passing hour.
I try to stay strong for my children, but my heart breaks every night when I see them suffering and I have nothing to protect them with.
Every second now is precious ⏳
Every act of kindness could be the reason my children survive 🙏
I am not asking for the impossible — only for a chance for my children to live safely, stay together, and have hope for another tomorrow.
Please, from the bottom of my heart, do not ignore our suffering 💔
Any small donation could help me buy milk, diapers, food, and medicine for my children.
I am Najah, living with my twin children in a tent. As the tanks approached the area where we are staying, my fear was no longer for myself, but for my two little children who need safety more than anything else. All I hope for is that this danger passes peacefully and that I can protect them from being displaced once again.
Please donate $25, $50, $100, or any amount you can give 🤲
Every contribution, no matter how small, can make a real difference in my children’s lives.
And if you cannot donate, please share our story everywhere you can 📢
Your compassion may reach someone who can save my children before it is too late.
I beg you — stop here, donate, share, and choose kindness before this silence becomes another tragedy for my family.
Thank you to everyone who listened to our pain 🌸
Your kindness today could give my children another chance at life and safety.
