My favourite question to ask (mostly suburban) people when commenting about XYZ thing that they claim makes the city unsafe is "Is it making you unsafe or is it making you uncomfortable?"

Is the safe injection site making you unsafe or does see it make you uncomfortable?

Is the encampment making you unsafe or does seeing unhoused people make you uncomfortable?

Is the person asking for change on the corner making you unsafe or are they making you uncomfortable?

Is the person talking to themself at the bus stop making you unsafe or are they making you uncomfortable?

Is the queer couple kissing making you unsafe or are they making you uncomfortable.

People existing in a way that you don't approve of isn't unsafe. People need to get better at understanding the difference between those two feelings because when you feel uncomfortable and claim you feel unsafe you often make the people making you uncomfortable actually unsafe.

Calling the cops on the person talking to themself may well result in them being harmed. Pitching a fit about safe injection sites and petitioning your local government to close them will result in people dying.

Being uncomfortable isn't a bad thing. Often times you simply need to learn to live with it or you need to direct your discomfort toward the system problems that lead to your discomfort.

It’s rare to feel happy in northern Gaza. But the other day, my sister Soso made me smile.

It’s not a lie that sugar is expensive. 1kg is $80. Frying oil is $70. That donut was expensive to make, even without the sugar. But it’s okay. Even if it means the adults can’t eat, it’s okay. Soso was happy for a few hours. She’s only 4 years old yet her life is already so hard. She’s not growing properly due to malnutrition and trauma. Her mental health is in shambles, not at all how a child should be. Since birth, two wars have come very close to killing her, so we just want her to be happy.

Please help me make her happy every day. A few days ago, she was the happiest child in the world because she ate an apple for the first time in a year. That won’t happen again because fruits are too expensive, but I swear, she explodes with joy when we buy vegetables too. She is a child with simple dreams.

Please don’t feel hesitant to help me, my campaign has been vetted!

In a more fun world, I would have a Build A Beast location where you could come in and peruse all my little friends and I'd also have one of those fancy poly-fil machines with the nozzle for stuffing.. but alas, in this reality you gotta go to thebeastpeddler.com/shop

northern hemisphere babes we made it to the longest night of the year. we made it. for the next 6 months, every day will give us a little more daylight than the last. let's go. take my hand. climb out of the darkness with me

We really have to hand it to kids' drawings. They're like little emotional time bombs, chaotic, pure, and ready to explode with meaning at any second. My son’s masterpiece? It’s got all the feels: hope, resilience, and a superhero vibe that makes you believe a pencil can save the world.

Then there’s my friend’s version, same idea but polished, powerful, and radiating strength and determination. One full of innocence and love, the other showing how far we’ve come in the fight for survival. Together, they remind me that even in the darkest times, there is light.

Maybe these drawings aren’t enough to stop you in your tracks. Maybe they’re not “good enough” to inspire donations or make you share this post. But behind each one, there’s a story of survival, resilience, and unshakable hope. This campaign isn’t just about me. It’s about 26 people, 26 lives hanging by a thread. That includes two orphaned children and a family member who’s suffering from hemiplegia after being hit by shrapnel during a bombing. She urgently needs surgery to replace infected plates in her body. The situation is dire, and every day is a battle. The video showing the injured family member is shared before in this post: Link.

Still waiting for a sign? Well, here it is. Resilience is great, but it doesn’t exactly cover surgeries, medicine, clothes, or food. Please help us ! Donate and reblog this post to spread our story.

Fahed (@/fahed-2) & Reem (@/reem-reem-0), fled south together with their children & their children's grandmother. Fahed's sister's family of 5 fled south as well, and the 13 of them remained together. But after 14 months of surviving hell as a unit (and nearly reaching their campaign goal) the family is now facing one of the worse decisions imaginable: who will be able to evacuate Gaza and who will be forced to stay behind.

There may be an opportunity for evacuation soon, but they're bracing for separation, with Fahed staying behind with his sister and her family. It's hard enough reunifying in Gaza, but with the border with Egypt between them, there's no telling when (or if) they'll ever see each other again. It shouldn't be a choice this family has to make: who survives, who may not. Their kids shouldn't be forcibly separated from their dad, nor Reem from her husband.

Fahed & Reem are some of the kindest, gentlest people ever, and their kids are dazzling, just absolute sweethearts. They've all lost so much and experienced too much, and somehow, kept finding a way to endure.

But right now, they might lose each other, so please: pitch in what you can, help the Shehabs stay together 🙏

We are critically low on funds for buying and maintaining esims! Also, due to the weirdness of the Canadian dollar and conversion rates at the moment, it's been recommended for USA-side donors to donate via bit.ly/eSimsUSD. That should link directly to Jane's paypal, and will make it easier to throw said American dollar buckaroos at American people buckaroos. Otherwise everyone else can please continue to donate to the classic bit.ly/eSimsRUs link.

We also have gotten some kind folks to donate their proceeds to us! Check these projects out!

Thank you so much!

When buying and playing with all of your holiday goodies this year, please consider donating some money to help those in Gaza!

emily jacir, from where we come from, 2001-2003

“if i could do anything for you, anywhere in palestine, what would it be?” this question was recently posed to palestinian exiles by palestinian-american artist emily jacir. taking advantage of her ability to move about relatively freely in israel with an american passport, jacir promised to realize the desires of those forbidden entry into their homeland. a series of texts, black lettering on white panels, describes the various requests. color photographs, presented by their side, document jacir’s actualization of them.  (sfmoma)
