Hey guys, Bilal ( @bilal-salah0 ) reached out to me recently to share his story with you guys so take a moment to read through this
Bilal Salah is a 22 year old who left his beloved city behind and moved to Germany a few months before to better support his family financially and to achieve his hopes and dreams away from the violence at home.
But since the genocide began and with no permanent ceasefire in sight, he has been living in constant fear over the safety of his family of 18 members that he had to leave behind in Gaza. He has been tirelessly fundraising to evacuate them to safety since.
During the past few months his family has faced a lot of difficulties. They have been constantly displaced time and time again, fleeing from the bombardment by the IOF ever since the family home, that had just finished construction right before last october, had been demolished.
I cannot even imagine how difficult every shift must have been with 8 children to care for, including 3 newborn babies.
They are now living in a tent in a refugee camp in Rafah city where basic amenities are denied to them.
In his own words:
They have to strive and risk their lives every day to provide the bare minimum of food and water for everyone, and even that is not always available. Due to the siege imposed on Gaza the markets are almost entirely empty, prices are rocketing, and little to no humanitarian aid is allowed to enter the strip.
In addition to food and water scarcity, the healthcare system in Rafah, has almost entirely collapsed. As a result, my family’s health, already at risk due to malnutrition, poor hygiene, little access to sanitation and the harsh weather conditions in the tent, is now also in serious peril because of the shortage of medicines and medical care.
The three newborns face the same threats, if not greater ones; as baby essentials including formula are barely available. Moreover, the only medical assistance they and their mothers have access to is that of an overcrowded maternity clinic or a field hospital with limited capabilities and equipment.
This is urgent, and they desperately need the funds. I urge you to visit bilal's blog as well as his gfm page and to read his story.
Bilal and his family need your support during this difficult time, so please dont look away.
This gfm is verified and appears on nairuz @/nabulsi and hussein @/el-shab-huasein's list of vetted fundraisers (#136) so please dont hesitate to share and donate.
Please follow bilal's blog for direct updates! They're nearing the final stretch, so please help them out any way you can!

As Google has worked to overtake the internet, its search algorithm has not just gotten worse. It has been designed to prioritize advertisers and popular pages often times excluding pages and content that better matches your search terms
As a writer in need of information for my stories, I find this unacceptable. As a proponent of availability of information so the populace can actually educate itself, it is unforgivable.
Below is a concise list of useful research sites compiled by Edward Clark over on Facebook. I was familiar with some, but not all of these.

🍉🍉🍉 I urgently plead you to keep sharing our campaign with your friends, family, and acquaintances
15 months have passed as if it were 15 years, and suffering increasing day after day 😔 Our health is decaying, we have NO IMMUNITY to fight diseases. No healthy food to feed our worn cells. Finding a quiet, clean place for us to get some rest is IMPOSSIBLE! I'm in urgent need of serious financial support so that I can take action and save my family! Our faces speak the misery we're going through! my children can't bear the ruthlessness of war life… pain and cold does not allow either of them to sleep 💔
I found in drawing a way to relieve stress and describe what we are experiencing, but even this i was deprived of, due to the difficulty of obtaining good internet and electricity for a sufficient time If you are interested in art, you can check I my blog I and find my artworks, i hope you will share them and support me to continue fighting and trying Every share and donation brings us one step closer to saving my family's lives. Your support, no matter how small, holds the power to rescue my loved ones from grave danger There are no words can describe how many times we have been displaced The situation we're living now is really hard to imagine Where do we Go?
Imagine the vastness of this universe, we cannot escape to a safe place far from the war

Y/N, trying to hype up Leon’s low self esteem : I’m serious! You look good, anybody would be lucky to have you, an—and you’re such a good person, like—
Leon, stares blankly at them : So date me.
Y/N, stunned :
Y/N : What?
Leon : So date me.
Y/N, slowly backing up : I mean. …..I’m not…..
Leon, suddenly beeline towards them : You said I’m a good person, so date me.
Y/N, suddenly the room feels hot : yeah but—
Leon, kabedon them to the wall : You said anybody would be lucky to have me, so be lucky.
Leon, tips their chin up to his searing hot stare : Date me.
why don’t you write for female readers...?
you should be inclusive to us too like wwjdjds it’s not fair when i have to read your work and see it’s x male reader... you guys flooded tumblr with that stuff
no hate i just hate it when I see mlm content and i have to change the pronouns in my head cuz i’m a cis girl
we write for you guys too and it’s kinda insensitive when i ask for a female reader and you say that this isn’t the right blog for that. it was wayy better when it was girl reader x character.
look, i'm really sorry you feel that way. i really am but that's how i felt for the longest time before male reader content became more prominent.
i never meant for it to be insensitive but i don't write female readers for the fact that, since i put myself into my writing and work, it makes me dysphoric.
and whether you think it's better a different way, others enjoyed it just how it is. i genuinely apologize if i have offended or hurt you in any way but this is a male/ftm reader blog for my comfort and the comfort of others in my same situation.
I'm holding another donation match for @abo-ataa !!! He's been hard at work on @helpgazachildren but my internet has been spotty so I haven't been able to upload updates. Please consider helping him and his family out, everyone!
Same as last time, if you can spare €5-€10, please consider donating to Hussam's evacuation fund!!!
