Always the issue. You only know you haven’t had them when it’s so late if you take them then you’re stuck waking up super late.

Can't remember if I took my sleep meds or not

Hello everyone♥️👋

**A Young Man’s Plea for Help:**

My name is Khaled,alanqar and I am 24 years old, living in Gaza. I work as an aluminum technician, a profession I’ve been passionate about for years. My workshop, which I built with my own hands, was my primary source of income and a symbol of my hard work and dedication.

However, the recent war in Gaza has turned my life upside down. My home was destroyed, and along with it, my workshop—the very foundation of my livelihood. In a matter of moments, everything I had worked so hard for was reduced to rubble.

My workshop and my home before it was destroyed due to the war

This my workshop and my home after it was destroyed due to the war..💔😭💔

**Why I Need Your Help:**

I am reaching out to you today because I need your help to rebuild my life. The funds raised will go towards:

- **Rebuilding my workshop:** So I can get back to work and support myself and my family.

- **Finding a safe place to live:** To restore some sense of stability and security.

- **Basic necessities:** Food, clothing, and essential items to survive this difficult time.

**Every Donation Counts:**

No donation is too small. Every dollar you contribute will bring me one step closer to rebuilding my life and regaining the ability to provide for myself and my loved ones.

**Please Share My Story:**

Even if you are unable to donate, sharing my story with others can make a world of difference. Your kindness and generosity are greatly appreciated.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

**Khaled**

Help a father save his children from war 🇵🇸❤️

Ahed @ahedfamily is the father of three young girls, all under ten years old. The past year has been a nightmare, but his motivation to keep going is his girls. They’re the light of his life and he would do anything for them.

Prices for everything in gaza is going up, and Ahed isn’t able to pay for what he needs for his children anymore, and this causes him a lot of pain. The worst thing a father can experience is seeing his children suffer, and they are in danger every day from bombs, starvation, and infectious illness. Ahed’s family desperately need our help to live through this genocide, and to eventually evacuate when the borders open.

This fundraiser is moving very slowly, and sometimes there’s days between each donation 💔 They’re currently at €8,936 raised out of €40,000

If you have anything to give to help them, please do so. This father deserves to sleep peacefully at night knowing his children are fed and safe from harm ❤️ Fatima and Iman should be in school or playing with friends and Nour should experience safety, something she has almost never felt, since she was born only two months before the war 💔

Every donation counts to Ahed’s children’s survival

Hallo...My name is Iyad from

Gaza,💔🥹

and I write this message with both a heart full of pain and a glimmer of hope.

On October 7th, my family and I were subjected to an Israeli airstrike that completely destroyed our home. We were on the brink of death but miraculously survived. We fled to Al-Shifa Hospital, believing it would be a safe refuge, but even the hospital was bombed. We were forced to escape once again amidst the screams and cries of our children. The hearts of my nieces and nephews—Nasser, Jana, Mohammed, and Hind—were filled with fear and terror. Those moments are etched in my memory as we pulled them from beneath the rubble.

Nasser, Jana, Mohammed and Hind are suffering from water because they have to get it from long distances every day. They bring it on foot because they do not have any means of transportation. Please help them as soon as possible.

Our lives have turned into a living hell. Fire surrounds us from every side, and the air is choked with smoke and phosphorus. I have developed a severe sensitivity to the smoke and phosphorus, leading to serious respiratory issues that worsen every day without treatment. I have not been able to find any relief, and my suffering continues.

We fled to southern Gaza, but now we live in a tiny tent that barely meets even the most basic human needs. We have no food, no shelter, and our dignity and humanity have been stripped away. Our only source of livelihood was lost when my father’s company was completely destroyed, its machinery turned to ash, along with all the goods and vehicles.

I once dreamed of continuing my university studies, but that dream was shattered when my university was destroyed. I had always aspired to study accounting and become an accountant, but now it feels like all my dreams are slipping away.

I appeal to anyone with a sense of humanity to help me and my family escape to a safe place. I desperately need treatment for my respiratory issues, and I want to regain my life and continue my education to achieve my dream. I hope to travel abroad for medical treatment and to resume my studies, but I cannot do this without help.

Please, if you can offer any support, whether financial or emotional, you may be the only hope for me and my family to find safety and dignity again. Every bit of help can make a huge difference in our lives.

We live in a very polluted environment which leads to children getting sick.

Thank you to everyone who helps me and contributes to saving my life and the lives of my family.💝🌼

Iyad

🇵🇸🙏 don't scroll ‼️

Hello dear people

I am Nabila from Gaza,, I am 64 years old ,,

speaking to you with a heavy and painful heart. I am sorry that I had to ask for help from you, but what we are living is what pushed me to do this. I was living a beautiful, quiet life, enjoying the time I spend with my grandchildren and seven daughters.

Imagine waking up to find that your world has changed in a moment, and you have lost your security and peace, and your home has been destroyed, and you have become homeless and living in conditions that no human being can bear. I suffer from chronic diseases, high blood pressure and diabetes. My medication has run out for some time and I am facing difficulty in obtaining it in light of the lack of treatment in hospitals and health centers. Most of the time I cannot feel my limbs, but I am trying to resist. I do not want to die in such circumstances. I still have hope that this war will end and we will rebuild our beautiful and beloved country again and live in safety. I believe in divine power and justice and that all this pain will go away.

I am trying to endure these difficult conditions that I live in inside a small tent and a bathroom a few meters away from my tent and you know the conditions of diabetics in this case but once again there is still hope. I used to live at the expense of my daughters but with all sadness and regret they have all lost their homes and places of work and they have no source of income left and their situation is like that of any Gazan who is still inside Gaza struggling with death, hunger, diseases and extreme heat each one struggling to feed his children I cannot ask them for help so I have resorted to you and I am fully confident in your humanity to help me so that I can provide food and treatment and provide a better tent than the one I live in because it is torn and the place is full of insects. If I can provide treatment, I want to continue my life and see my grandchildren grow up around me. I don’t want to go now. I know that I don’t have as much life left as I have, but I have the right to live and enjoy this. Please don’t hesitate to help your mother who has come to you with a heavy and sad heart. Every dollar will make a difference in my life. Don’t leave me to live this pain. I appreciate what you are doing for every Palestinian inside and outside Gaza. I pray to God that you don’t go through what we are going through, my beloved.

A 22 yr old in my org got drunk tuesday night and kinda shit on the fact that I'm running a community cleanup for our chapter. Said something along the lines of "i didn't join up to pick trash." Which really bothers me and it took me a while to figure out why. The whole point of the community cleanup is that we're returning to the neighborhoods where we knocked doors for A4 to help clean up their streets and provide material improvement for free in an effort to build inroads with those neighbors.

Like... if your socialism doesn't include picking uo trash, I'm guessing it also doesn't include doing the dishes, babysitting, or anything else that is important but not prestigious. Idk man, fuck off with that shit. You'll pick up trash and you'll like it until you understand why picking up trash isn't anyone's job but your own. I hate that attitude. If helping and doing activism was always fun and visible and impressive, everyone you know would already be doing it.

A newborn baby girl will have to go through life with the wrong sex on her birth certificate after a registrar’s error, which her parents have been told they cannot change. Grace Bingham and her partner, Ewan Murray, were excited to register their first child at the Sutton-in-Ashfield Registration Office in Nottinghamshire last week. But, after nights of broken sleep, they failed to notice the registrar had written the wrong sex on the birth certificate until after it had been submitted. “We were horrified but assumed that, as we saw the mistake just a few seconds after it had happened, correcting it would be an easy matter,” said Murray. “But although the registrar apologised for her mistake – and the area manager also apologised – it turns out that birth certificates can’t be changed.”

this article is interesting because it demonstrates that cis people can very easily apply structural thinking to sex assignment - this couple immediately identifies that their daughter, having mistakenly been assigned male at birth by the registrar, will have administrative problems in employment, education, travel, and so on. they pretty adeptly identify the foundational role that sex assignment plays in the administrative and civil functions of a state, and how incorrect sex markers effectively produce a ‘rational’ reason for discrimination within these administrative and civil arenas:

The General Register Office (GRO), which is responsible for administering all civil registration in England and Wales, and the Home Office have both confirmed that Lilah’s birth certificate cannot be reissued, although an amendment can be made in the margin of the original document. But Bingham said this is not enough. “People reading a birth certificate might easily miss a tiny note in the margin – which means that Lilah could be regarded as male when she applies for school, her passport, for jobs – for everything that she needs a full birth certificate for.”

And given that this was published in The Guardian, this article makes zero mention as to why it’s impossible for this couple to receive an updated birth certificate with correct information (something the author notes was possible to do a year ago), but the reason is obviously transphobia. 

Now one might ask why there’s no exception for cis people whose birth certificates were recorded incorrectly at birth, but this reveals the instability of cissexualism. How would you determine who is a cis person with a mistaken birth certificate, versus a trans person who wants to change their mistaken sex assignment record? Sure, you could say well, this is an infant, of course she’s “really” “biologically” female (something the parents argue in the article as grounds for having their child’s birth certificate re-issued), but 1) that certainly can’t be argued for in all cases, 2) 'biological sex' is understood by medical doctors as alterable through hormones and surgery, which trans people are often required to undergo in order to change their records, and 3) binary sex assignment is already imprecise and discretionary, particularly if infants have sex characteristics that don’t conform to binary F/M assignment standards (which is part of how the category of intersex emerges, framing this failure to conform to state census categories as a biological defect - and in fact, many intersex people do not discover they are intersex until the onset of puberty or later, at which point they are even less in luck if they want to change their sex assignment - and if they don’t, if they are cis but have sex characteristics that do not conform to cis standards, they will be discriminated against anyway). 

Even setting aside the issue of transgender and intersex people for a moment, states fuck up all the time in administration! you've probably either experienced this directly or know someone who's had some kind of record fucked up by the government at some point in their life. If you get married they could fuck up changing your last name, fuck up your disability status, record your social insurance number wrong, print the wrong address on your driver’s license, fail to acknowledge you as a dependent when filing taxes, incorrectly mark you as having graduated when you’re still a student, fuck up your immigration paperwork, record your name wrong during immigration, etc etc into infinity, and this is not even getting into errors that occur when different levels of government pass information between one another. This level of administrative rigidity is purely to punish people who fail to perform cissexualism correctly, and in the case of this couple's child, the administrative error of the state is imputed to them as a personal failure that she and her parents will now have to deal with for the rest of their lives. 

I think the ultimate analysis is not that transphobia will become less precise and hit more "wrong" targets as it expands its reach, but that this is the exact same operational logic as all other liberal state measures - if you encounter a systemic issue, it’s your fault for not avoiding it, fuck you, go away. You’re poor because you’re lazy, you’re unhoused because you’re lazy, you’re disabled because you’re lazy, and your daughter is now administratively transsexual because you’re lazy. In this case, we don’t even need to assume the intentions of the state - they outright say it:

The family complained to the GRO but was told the mistake was their responsibility and could not be fully rectified. “The duty to ensure that information recorded in any particular entry is true is the responsibility of the person providing the information and not of the registrar general or the registrar recording the birth,” the GRO said.
