My friends, the ceasefire will take effect in two days in Gaza.

Our joy and the joy of the people here in Gaza are immense.

I would like to thank you all for standing by me and my family during the war.

However, our joy is not complete yet, as we have not reached our goal of leaving Gaza when the crossing opens in two days.

I need your support and to share my story. We have reached €18,173, and we are halfway to our goal of €29,000 to be able to leave Gaza.

Please donate and share our story

a palestinian journalist and father of three has had the tumblr account he used to advocate for his family terminated without warning, in yet another act of censorship against palestinians on this dying website

my dear friend siraj @siraj0 has had to remake his tumblr several times with several different emails over the past several months because of unjust termination and repeated shadowbanning. there have even been instances where his account was restricted mere hours after it was created. this has all severely hindered his ability to promote his family's survival fund, which supports over twenty people in his family, including ten children, through a genocide. he cannot maintain his online audience or connect with others on this site if he is terminated. it is clear at this point that tumblr is trying to silence him entirely.

which is why i want those who see this to share, not just this post, but posts by siraj himself on his new blog, @siraj0. he will continue to advocate his family's survival on this blog.

Sometimes you need to read something twice to get it. You might need to watch a movie three times to understand it. You might have to have that album on repeat for a week until the lyrics make any sense. You're allowed to engage with it and can keep engaging with it until it means something to you. People will see a painting at a museum and laugh about not getting what the big deal is but like you can come back, you can see it at another time, and maybe that next time it'll be different for you. I'm of the belief the "media literacy crisis" would solve itself if more people just sat down and did it again. Watched, read, played, listened, etc like I don't think people are getting more ignorant necessarily I just think we're not glorifying personally replaying things nearly as much as we should be.

Cookie run kingdom is so fun when you don't gaf about the gacha (guy who's staring at the costume gacha)... I'm having fun with it again! Slowly, making the kingdom look cute and progressing my story. Hopefully, I don't get bored until I finish all the story episodes.

Honestly, the only bad things about coming back after a long time (last played 2022?) is that the meta changed quite drastically and that my guild was dead...

fuck my stupid baka life

[aechrasa]

winter is returning to gaza which means white phosphorous acid rain, polio infected sewage flooding, and bitter cold with no shelter. tents are not enough.

siraj's family has 10 children in it, many under the age of 12, two newborns, and two elderly people who are susceptible to disease. his mother has diabetes, which anyone knows needs frequent monitoring and medical care. he and his family just recovered from skin infections and he doesn't want to see them suffer from all the disease the winter will bring.

siraj found a place to rent but its 1400 CAD a month. the lease lasts 6 months - he needs to raise $8400 CAD / $6253 USD as soon as possible before winter gets really ugly so he can secure his family's safety.

siraj is trying to rebuild his life. he doesn't want to let the zionist entity kick him out. he's staring this genocide in the face and telling them he doesn't care what they do, he's not leaving.

yet, he's really far from his goal. and things are moving really slowly. i don't know how many times i can repeat this same information. things change but the brutality of what they face stays the same.
