Even though they are living through a genocide and have no means if income, my friends in Gaza must pay for everything you and I pay for at steep prices. They have to pay hundreds of dollars in rent, $60 for a water truck delivery, $50 for a cooking gas cylinder, $30 for mobile internet access. All this before even accounting for the costs of food ($40 for a 25kg bag of flour, let alone anything nutritious). All this before the costs of medicine or healthcare bills.

My friend Mahrah (@freepaleatine955) lives in Gaza, taking care of her elderly parents. My wife (@cannilyuncanny) hosts their family's fundraiser (vetted by 90-ghost and shared by fairuzfan) and wires transfers of donations directly to Mahrah. The money that we are able to raise is the entirety of their budget for the bare essentials of survival. Please donate if you can afford to. Keep them in your thoughts.

cnn reporters are so mealy-mouthed. "Both parties have accused each other of violating the terms [of the ceasefire]." Israel has been documented violating the agreement thousands of times. there are recorded names of the dead, public uncontested record of Israel's maintaining their blockade (and the inventory data in Gaza hospitals backing it up), and (again public) record of ordering the military to push forward and occupy 70% of the strip. none of these are "accusations" they are documented and observable facts in reality. and then they accuse Palestinians of violating the terms for refusing to lie down and die.

2010 and 2012. David is the founder and former CEO of tumblr. If yall ever wondered if the antiblackness been baked in or nah.

calling the cops on someone you believe is having a psychotic episode to “help them” will never be helpful ever

My account has been blocked for no apparent reason.

I'm writing to you amidst this siege, with pain gnawing at my body. Since our house was bombed, shrapnel has been lodged in my body, tearing me apart and causing unbearable pain. I haven't been able to have surgery to remove it because the entire healthcare system here has been destroyed, and I need to raise the m0ney for travel to have my operation in another country. I need your stand by me.

On top of this suffering, I'm suffering from severe anemia, which causes me to faint frequently. I urgently need your h@lp now to buy anemia medication and painkillers to alleviate this agony, and to cover the costs of my treatment, I hope you will all stand by my side.

Thank you so much to everyone who asked about my absence from Tumblr the past two days. I've been experiencing severe pain and loss of consciousness for the past two days.

My health is deteriorating rapidly, and I can barely write this post to tell you that I desperately need your suppport right now. Please h@lp me so I can bu.y my medication as soon as possible and raiise the necessary fun.ds for my travel and surgery. Please d0nate.

sexual thrill at the mere prospect of cataloging things in a database

While I read this, I thought about my friend Ahmed. "Children in Gaza walk long, dangerous distances to fetch water due to the destruction of water and sanitation infrastructure, spending six to eight hours daily carrying heavy water loads, replacing school time with daily survival tasks." This has been Ahmed's life for years now. When the report describes the impact of malnutrition on children's bodies they are talking about his body.

In one section, the report states: "poor oral health makes it harder to eat and absorb nutrients, thus contributing to malnutrition." Ahmed (@ahmed-motaz) was born with a disability that impacts his teeth. He first started fundraising because he desperately needs expensive dental implants, which are unavailable in Gaza. It has been years and he has never saved enough to get this care, and his family can barely afford nutritious food. UNICEF ranks the Gaza Strip as “the most dangerous place in the world to be a child." These brutal conditions are even harder for disabled children. Please support Ahmed.

Like many Palestinians, tumblr staff cruelly targeted Ahmed's blog for deletion earlier this month. I am texting with him right now, and I can confirm that @ahmed-motaz is his new blog. His campaign is vetted by @gazavetters in line (#198). Please share this widely so that his followers can find him again <3

Please, I need your help. I'm suffering from severe anemia, feeling extremely dizzy and vomiting, and I'm starving because of the high price of food. I need your assistance to buy medicine and food before my condition worsens. Please don't leave me to suffer; I can't take it anymore. I need your help.

I need your help, guys. I'm experiencing severe stomach pain due to hunger, and I feel like my body is unable to move because of the anemia that's getting worse every moment. Please help me so I can get medicine and food. Please stand by me.
