Current news about Gaza: An expected 60-day ceasefire.
If you are seeing this, please consider helping my friend Mahmoud's (who is also a cat lover and the boops remind me of him!) 17 family members in Gaza. They have 10 children with them and things are getting really bad. They are struggling to buy food because food can get up to 7900% more expensive than usual! Due to a lack of money, the children are suffering from constant diarrhea and stomachaches due to malnutrition and the contaminated food and water they have to consume!
There are also 3 babies among Mahmoud's 17 family members. The youngest of them, baby Meryem, was only born a few months ago . Mahmoud's sister gave birth to the baby with the sound of bombing around her, with no medical personnel or medical resources available. Hence, she almost died giving birth to the baby! While she luckily survived, she is still suffering from many infections due to the difficult birth. But they don't have money to buy medicine!
They also have no shelter now because their tent was completely destroyed in a bombing! Nothing to shield them from the winter cold and the rain!
This campaign is #3 on @/gaza-evacuation-funds vetted list here, #117 on @/gazavetters vetted list, vetted by bilal-salah0, and vetted by association.
As an incentive to donate, I'm also hosting a freshwater pearl phone strap raffle to raise funds for this campaign (UK only)! Click here to enter after you donated!

supernatural, as time goes by [8.12]
Honestly I don't know what the fuck is wrong with you all every damn day multiple times a day I get on this blog and I post about Dina and her two children and I tell you the dire situation they're in and I ask you to please for the love of fucking god help them and none of you seem to give a fuck. None of you lift a fucking finger. The posts I make for her are CONSISTENTLY the ones that get the LEAST interaction. I don't know what to fucking say to you!!!! How many times do I have to tell you that her children are so young, her son isn't even a year old yet!!! He is a literal infant!!! These are babies being forced to live in some of the worst conditions, no access to food or water, in a tent soaked through by freezing rains. How can any of you claim to care about children when you ignore these children. Is it because they're Palestinian??? Do their lives just not matter to you??? What am I left to conclude???? Day in and day out I feel sick looking at how little donations Dina gets and it seems like no one else cares. No one even glances her way. Her posts get thousands of notes and we're lucky to get FIVE donations in a whole day. You are heartless. How can you claim to care about people when you can't lift a finger to help one family.
The Alanqar family has a new baby to care for, and three very young children, Zeina, Eileen, and Yamen, the oldest of which is 7 years old. They need your help to restore hope and safety to their lives!!

While some of you watch the live footage of the bombings of Haifa, so-called Tel Aviv, Jerusalem, and Al Jaleel by Iranian forces I'm sure some of you are puzzled as to the Palestinians in those areas are heard cheering and whistling and celebrating the rockets coming down in their areas.
I just want you to imagine how horrible your life must've been under an occupation for you to celebrate the damage happening to it even if there's a risk to your life, because any damage done to that occupation is one step closer to your freedom.
Please imagine trying to live a daily life of kidnappings and torture from a young age by people who kill your loved ones and, then tell me you wouldn't celebrate rockets falling onto their strongholds after they spent 2 years carpet bombing a besieged city full of your people.
I get it, I really do, but I feel like ppl w decision paralysis related to Gazans are also suffering from a kind of non-malignant egotism
"who do I decide to give it to? everyone needs help! I can't help them all!"
You're not the only person they're asking!!!!!
If you choose one person to help that day, a bunch of other ppl choose others
stopping to overthink your inflated importance as an individual versus one in many is what's giving you paralysis
the more you burden yourself as an incapable hero the less you all act as a group-- which is the exact answer you're looking for
fkn close your eyes, scroll on OOB and donate to whoever you click on first
you're not god, it's not your job to save everyone
JUST DO SOMETHING
Are you tired 😴 of our news? 🗞️ Has our suffering become just another passing story? For us, this is our life.
We are a family living under the harsh reality of war. My children—Qusai, who is 7 years old; Eileen, who is 5; and Hisham, who is nearly 2—and my husband all share a small tent ⛺️ with me, a space no larger than a single room. In this modest shelter, everything—our kitchen, bathroom, and sleeping area—has to fit, holding our entire lives in just a few square meters.
Sometimes, I wonder if our story has become just another story, another part of the background. But for us, it’s real. My children 🧒 lack clean clothes, enough food, 🥘 and fresh water, 💧 basic needs they deserve like every child. And now, with the biting cold 🥶 of winter ❄️ fast approaching, I find myself fearing for my two-year-old, who has no way to stay warm, no way to shield himself from the coming chill.
For the second year in a row, my children 👧 have not been able to attend school 🏫 . No education, no clear future. As a father, I feel helpless, unable to give them the hope they deserve.
We don’t ask for much. A small gesture, a simple question 🙋 about our well-being, can mean the world to us. Even a little attention🚨 to our story might help us find a way forward. For my children, for our family, we hold out hope that we’re not alone in this struggle.
