if you are unable to donate financially to help palestine, you can donate your time by protesting, boycotting, and putting up posters!
if all you have is your device and internet access, you can put your clicks to good use on arab.org. they use the advertising revenue generated by your clicks to help good causes.
and i would urge those able to spare a few dollars to donate to one or more of the following organizations:
anyway here's to disabled people who are not healing. disabled people who are not recovering, ever. people with disabilities that only get worse and worse over time. people who cannot access treatment for their disabilities or whose disabilities simply aren't treatable. people who know they'll only get more and more disabled as time goes on. people who know their disability will kill them sooner or later. you are seen, you are important, you are not dead weight, and you deserve support.
people whose disabilities are accepted as real only in countries you don't live in so there's no support or management treatments because most medical professionals in your country still think you have a psychological condition so you "just need cbt and more exercise" both of which will actively harm you
no words.
the fact that people have decided that fandom is an inviolable safe space where anyone trying to point attention away is automatically in the wrong (see this) or to be ignored completely (see the ao3 drives time after a time). genuinely boggles the mind
What's absolutely insane to me is that Ahmed never commented once or involved himself in a single discussion around fandom, yet he was dragged into this mess. I think this person has to be lying about their motivations, otherwise they wouldn't have dragged a literal ongoing genocide survivor into this terminally online attempt at harassment. I think their motivations are a lot more malicious than they're letting on. Even a pure fandom entitled white brat would know that he has not approached a single fandom and shouldn't be bothered at all. Let alone treated in this way.
And for everyone on tumblr: have some fucking shame. Some shame is actually good for you.
I found the link from this little girls instagram she is in Gaza and looking to evacuate
Oh my gosh. I just found this website that walks you though creating a believable society. It breaks each facet down into individual questions and makes it so simple! It seems really helpful for worldbuilding!
Heads up that this is a very extensive questionnaire and might be daunting to a lot of writers (myself included). That being said, it is also an amazing questionnaire and I will definitely be using it (or at the very least, some of it).

What do they take for granted? Take it away from them.
The one thing they know for certain? Make them doubt it.
Their worst fear? Throw it at their faces.
Make their plans fail. Make them cry. Make them question things and then learn about them and the way they react in the process.
Be mean to your character. Then be kind to them for a while, because after all that they may deserve it.
Though the exact number of casualties from the atrocity is still unknown, preliminary reports suggest that over 1,500 Palestinians have been killed, injured, or are reported missing as a result of the massacre at Al-Shifa, with women and children making up half of the casualties. Euro-Med Monitor is able to confirm from its initial investigation and testimonies that hundreds of dead bodies, including some burned, and others with their heads and limbs severed, have been discovered both inside Al-Shifa Medical Complex and in the hospital’s surrounding area. The massacre claimed the lives of at least 22 patients who were killed in their hospital beds during the Israeli siege of the Medical Complex, amid the willful deprivation of their access to food, medical care, and supplies. Israel’s army also purposefully prevented relief teams and representatives of international organisations from entering Al-Shifa to carry out humanitarian missions or evacuations, plus purposefully cleared the Complex of all working personnel—particularly medical personnel—either by summary execution or forced displacement or arrest. The whereabouts of some of these individuals are still unknown.
Members of the Israeli army forced more than 25,000 Palestinian civilians to evacuate their homes in the vicinity of Al-Shifa Medical Complex. These forced evacuations occurred after Israel committed horrendous crimes against local families, including killing, direct targeting, besieging, and starving them, as well as arbitrary arrests and destroying and burning homes and civilian objects. According to initial estimates, the Israeli army demolished and set ablaze over 1,200 housing units in the vicinity of Al-Shifa Medical Complex.
amok time
Please consider donating to Hussam's family! They are low on funds and in need! They're trying to evacuate 14 different family members!
Spreading some palestinian joy with these beautiful pictures, I wanted to write something like "palestinian art" but honestly palestine is art and one day, hopefully in the near future, palestine will be free.
I got most of these from @hannahziad on instagram, shes a palestinian-american social media influencer and she posts alot about palestine.

[Video description: the camera follows the path of a model train track. It approaches two staring cats, whose faces take up most of the frame and are so still I thought they were were figurines at first, and pauses there; then it slowly continues. It passes one of the cats, then the other cat knocks it down. Minor incidental sounds only. End description.]
@amtrak-official is this what you meant by getting mad pussy on the train

love the word “rapscallion”. like not only are you a rascal but you’re also kind of spring onion about it too
I was about to be irritated at a shitty "kids' education" website on 1770s clothing but then I learned that there's a staymaker buried at King's Chapel and now I'm just delighted to know the gravesite of a clothing worker from that era and I want to take him flowers
I WAS TODAY FUCKING YEARS OLD WHEN I LEARNED THAT THOMAS PAINE WAS A MASTER STAYMAKER?!?!
