Blog W.I.P hold on....

however, these many nations are recognising an extermination camp, not a state.

as for recent updates on the situation in Palestine, a ground invasion of Gaza City is underway, thousands have been massacred and hundreds of thousands have been forced into displacement once again.

atleast 57 people were massacred on thursday, september 25th, including children.

and on top of this, Al Jazeera reports that seven more hospitals & health facilities in Gaza City were forced to close in recent days due to heavy bombardments.

we could go on about numbers and statistics, but individual stories humanise Palestinians.

“ I feel like my memories are dissappearing and parts of me are shrinking, ”

– Sara Awad, 21 years old, english literature student from Gaza City.

on september 11th, Awad left her house in the Sheikh Radwan neighborhood where she had lived for the past two decades. She moved to a tent in al-Zawayda, central Gaza.

Awad thought israel’s campaign to invade and take direct control of Gaza City was just a “ psychological war, ” never believing she would be forced out of her neighborhood or house.

“ I feel like israel is occupying me and killing me – not just my city. ”

on top ot this, Awad’s grandfather, Rafeeq, was 73 when he succumbed to cancer on october 21st 2023 due to the lack of vital treatment.

( source: an Electronic Intifada article )

it is unknown how many have died due to lack of treatment for chronic & acute desises in Gaza since the Genocide began.

this is the reality for Hanan ( @hanangaza / @hanangazas-blog ), her husband Youssef, and their three children. they hope to relocate and seek a new shelter.

three children, the youngest being two years old, and the oldest being eleven – they are still babies.

these children are malnourished, Hanan had messaged me about how hungry her children are. if the bombs don't rain fire on them, hunger will certainly eradicate them slowly.

their fundraiser can be very stagnant at times, but it fortunately getting some traction at the moment that we need to keep up – the last donation was 3 hours ago as I write this.

this post I made for them has hundreds of notes, imagine if everyone contributed even a small amount ??

you can also donate via the PayPal link – money may reach them faster that way.

this fundraiser has been reblogged by @/90-ghost & is documented as number 591 on the @/gazavetters list !!

Victor Jerome Glover Jr. (born April 30, 1976) is an American naval officer, test pilot, and NASA astronaut of the 2013 class. A former F/A‑18 pilot and graduate of the United States Air Force Test Pilot School, he piloted the first operational flight of SpaceX's Crew Dragon to the International Space Station. Glover served as a flight engineer on Expedition 64 and became the first Caribbean American astronaut to live aboard the ISS.

On April 1, 2026, Glover launched as pilot of the Artemis II mission, becoming the first Black man to travel beyond low Earth orbit and the first to journey to the vicinity of the Moon. He is also, along with the other crew members of Artemis II, the first human that has traveled the farthest from Earth.

The reblog chain is one of the things that makes Tumblr unlike anywhere else. All the notes on reblogs are attributed to the original post, no matter which branch people actually liked or reblogged. We want to keep encouraging conversations, and give contributors the recognition they deserve. 

Soon, you'll be able to like, reblog, or reply to any part of a reblog chain, and that note will go to that reblog's author. Each reblog will have its own counts, instead of one aggregated number from every version of the post. And yes, you’ll be able to like multiple posts in one chain.

If a reblog doesn't add anything, the love flows up to the last person in the chain who did. Your post doesn't lose notes just because people spread it quietly.

Past notes will stay on the original post — we're only changing what happens from here on out. Retroactively re-attributing all of them would be... a lot.

We rolled out a significant change to how notes work on reblogs, and the reaction has been strong. We're not going to pretend otherwise. 

First things first: We're reversing the change. Your feedback in comments, emails, and especially reblogs, made clear that the rollout created problems we need to address before moving forward. We also should have communicated this differently from the start, and we didn't.

We still believe there's a better version of how reblogs can work. One that gives every voice in a chain the credit it deserves. But we want to get there with you.

In the coming days we'll share more on how we plan to do that,  including ways to work directly with some of you on this and future changes before they ship.

I'm sorry for doing this, but also I'm not. Andrew Wilson is the one who should be sorry.
