Pay attention, don't scroll past this.

Shahed is a 20 year old college student who used to study at Al-Azhar University and lived a happy life with her family in Southern Gaza.

But since the genocide began last October, their family have had to see and experience so much loss and destruction. They lost the family home their father had built, her education, as well a dearly beloved friend and their entire family to the bombing of the zionist occupation forces.

Shahed now fears that she might lose the rest of the family the same way too.

In her own words:

"My father is a heart patient and needs to leave Gaza City very quickly in order for treatment to take place. My sisters, desperately young and old, suffer from hepatitis.

We are in this time living a primitive life. We live in a small tent that can barely accommodate a family of 15 people.

There is not enough food and there is no clean water. It is all polluted. We live in the middle of bombs in the middle of destruction. Everything has been destroyed from the house of my father’s work and toil for years.

Imagine, my little sisters, they see death. Their psychological state has become very difficult. I don't know how I can review any example before the war, because they are children and now war is all they know.

We must help them so that their condition does not get worse, because they are children who tremble and tremble all the time. They see murder at this young age.

Can you imagine children who should be out playing, but instead struggle for basic shelter and safety?"

Currently the health of Shahed's sisters and her parents are rapidly deteriorating due to the lack of medical resources in Gaza at the moment. She has informed me that her sisters are currently staying at a hospital. I cannot stress enough how dire their situation is.

Please help Shahed save her family. They need your care and attention now more than ever.

July 6th: $8,071 USD raised of $50,000 goal

Their gfm has slowed down a worrying amount recently, having only raised $60 in the past 24 hours, when they are NOWHERE near their goal.

Please share, donate, and don't forget to follow Shahed's blog @shahednhall for direct updates on her situation. I want to remind you that recently tumblr has been banning a lot of palestinian accounts, so it is VERY important that you follow their accounts so that we notice when it happens.

Today, I am in urgent need of your help and support for me and my family. Our home was completely destroyed near Al-Shifa Hospital.

Death passes before us every day, and we fear for our lives. Our bodies are exhausted, we have lost a lot of weight, and our health has deteriorated. There is no source of income for me or my father.

I hope you can help me raise funds for my campaign to bring my family and me to safety.

dude.

but I am also super annoyed by the way it's framed as "without light pollution you can see how beautiful the night sky is" way more prominently than it's framed as "hey, did you ever stop to think of how much energy/resources/money are literally wasted by having so much light shine up into the sky?"

@hiraethdays A few years ago I went to Death Valley, a designated dark sky zone. In my long-exposure photos you could see a glow on the horizon. Looked like the very beginning of a sunrise.
