To my US mutuals, how we doing guys?

[ironicscavenger]

Because I needed the reminder and maybe you do too: the best way to deal with political frustration is to do something.

A real and immediate impact you can have that will directly help a Palestinian is to buy an eSIM and send it to gazaesims@gmail.com. This allows Gazans to access mobile data so they can get news out and keep in touch with their friends and family.

If you have never done this before, here is a step by step guide, complete with discount codes. It is slightly technical but still fairly easy (imo, ymmv). If you can't/don't want to buy one directly, you can donate to Crips for eSIMs and they will buy one on your behalf.

You don't have to top up the eSIMs when they get low/run out, but I find it comforting to do so. It means somebody is still alive, and that you've made a hellish experience a tiny bit less terrible.

In the heart of war-torn Gaza, where destruction and loss are a daily reality, lies the deeply moving tale of Dr. Husam Farhat and his family. Amidst the relentless bombardment, Dr. Farhat faced an unthinkable tragedy: the martyrdom of his beloved sisters, Inas and Amal, along with their husbands and children, and his brother Mustafa. This devastating loss shattered not only their dreams but also their hopes for a peaceful future.

Life Before the War: Memories of a Beautiful Home

Before the war, my life revolved around a beautiful home where I lived with my wife, our daughter Sham, and our sons Muhannad and Muhammad. This home was more than just a place to live; it was a sanctuary filled with love, warmth, and the joy of watching my children grow. Every corner of our home echoed with their laughter, turning it into a place where dreams for the future felt not only possible but inevitable, but then the war came, and in an instant, everything changed. The place where we once felt safe and secure was reduced to rubble. The life we had carefully built, the dreams we had nurtured, and the bright future we had planned were all torn apart. The war didn’t just destroy our home; it uprooted our entire existence, leaving us with nothing but the painful memories of what once was, Now, standing in the ruins of our former life, I'm left with fragments of a distant dream. The joy and security we once knew have been replaced by loss and uncertainty as we face a future overshadowed by harsh realities.

The Loss of My Professional Dream and Life After the War

And it wasn’t just my home that was destroyed. My accounting office, one of the most renowned in Palestine, was also reduced to rubble. I had worked tirelessly to build this office, which wasn't just a place of business but a reflection of my passion and dedication to the field of accounting. It was our primary source of income, providing financial stability and security for my family, My office was well-known for its exceptional services and strong reputation among clients. Over the years, it had become a symbol of success and hard work in the accounting world. But the war took it all away in an instant. Everything I had worked so hard to achieve was destroyed, and years of effort and dedication were wiped out in moments, Now, I stand on the ruins of my office, just as I stand on the ruins of my life, trying to piece together the remnants of my dreams and memories. This office was a source of pride for me and my family, but the war has left us with nothing, facing an uncertain and difficult future.

War's Toll on My Dreams and Future

The war didn’t just destroy my home and office; it shattered my dreams and future. As a PhD candidate in Accounting Information Systems at Universiti Utara Malaysia, I was in my final year, pursuing research that is a significant contribution to my field and valuable to entrepreneurs. With a master’s degree with distinction and a bachelor's degree, I also taught at several universities, sharing my knowledge and passion, But the war disrupted everything. Years of hard work, academic progress, and my contributions to the field have been torn apart, leaving me with an uncertain future. Now, I am faced with the daunting task of not only rebuilding my life but also reviving the dreams and ambitions that once drove me. The journey ahead is filled with challenges, but my resolve to continue remains strong.

Displacement and Uncertainty After the War

Now, after all this devastation, my family and I are living as displaced people, homeless and jobless, with no clear future for ourselves or our children. Every day is a struggle to find food for my children, who have been robbed of every chance at a normal life by this war. Once, we lived in Shuja'iyya, in North Gaza, where we had a home, a life, and dreams. But now, after being displaced over nine times, we find ourselves in the refugee camps of Nuseirat, the war has stripped us of everything—our home, our security, and our future. Our daily life has become a constant search for basic necessities, a far cry from the life we once knew. The dreams I had for my children and myself now feel like distant memories, overshadowed by the relentless challenges of survival. Each day brings new uncertainties, as we navigate this harsh new reality, clinging to the hope that one day we might rebuild what was lost.

Rebuild Hope: A Call to Stand with Us

We urgently call on all those who stand in solidarity with us, and every supporter, to help save what remains of our lives. Your assistance, even in small ways, can make a significant difference in helping us rebuild and restore our shattered world, rebuilding feels like an insurmountable task, but with your help, we can begin to piece together what was lost. Your contributions, no matter how small, can provide the foundation we need to start anew, offering hope and a chance at a better future for our family. Your solidarity means the world to us as we navigate these challenging times.

Thank you for your compassion, your time, and your commitment to freedom and justice.

With deepest gratitude,

Dr. Farhat's Family

Happy first weekend of Simblreen to all who celebrate 🎃

[ironicscavenger]

Since it's simblreen again, I wanted to reblog last year's public treat. There were a few more songs added at the end. So you can all enjoy it while trick or treating. Happy simblreen!

CAROLINA (AND FRIENDS)' SPOOKY VIBES: A simblreen playlist

Simblreen is here! The spooky and festive vibes are in the air. In that spirit, I wanted to have a public gift, so I came up with the idea for a playlist, similar to my holiday playlist last year. I also asked my friends on my discord server if they wanted to add some, and @colourfullsims answered the call. So we have a lot of different music here for different tastes. I tried to organise it based on genre/artists, from classical to soundtracks, vintage and modern. I hope you like it and can enjoy it. Happy trick or treating!

Songs 1-99 were added by me

Songs 100 to 125 were added by @colourfullsims

More songs may be added later

Some news about me

The last month or so, maybe more, my grandfather had been ill, and he passed away yesterday. Everyone's doing ok, but it was not easy. Needless to say, my will to create has been low. But he was suffering and the whole family with him, so we are at peace with his passing. Still, saying goodbye is always hard. But I think we will all be ok. Anyway, just wanted to let you know in case my posts stop. I had today's video on the queue already, but next one isn't done. Almost though, I just gotta finish it, but I don't know when that'll be.

Those four campaigns not reaching their goal is serious. These people have been living in horrible conditions for more than 300 days. They've been enduring genocide for more than 300 days. Enough is enough. Please donate to any of them. Share whatever posts I have about them. Keep them circulating. We need to meet that goal in time. I don't want to leave them behind like this.

Donate to Momen Al Ostaz, Abdullah Ameen, Doaa's family, and Mahmoud Nedal.

We are still way behind on our goal, and it's been almost 24 hours.

I hope everyone is nice to Kijiko while they update their CC lashes (if they choose too) following EA's latest fuckery. Anyone who feels inclined to scream at a creator or leave them impatient messages over something out of their control (or in general really) is an arsehole and needs to put themselves in the bin.

Every Saturday, Papa Jones takes Damien and his friends to Gilbert Gardens. It first started with only Tala Ruano, but now Sud Bun Ma and Orion Michaelson are tagging along 🤗 Damien's friendship circle is getting bigger 🧸

After taking these, I took Sud and Orion into CAS. I always thought Orion was a boy and Sud was a girl but it's actually the other way around! 😭

[ironicscavenger]

I love you guys so much 🤍

[ironicscavenger]

I wrote this post almost a year ago. And, oh my god, how things have changed. Being single is, most of the time, the right choice. Because people will usually hurt you, no way around that. But someday you find one who would do anything in the world to make you happy. I think I might have found the one. And I did among the rubble of my last relationship. My ex and I had a group of friends I thought he would keep. But they did not let me go. And among them, one of them fell in love with me, hard. And I thought I'd never be ready for him, as I was so hurt and undone. But he had patience and love and never forced me into anything. He just cared and loved me, despite my insecurities and scars. So, I guess what I'm trying to say is, sometimes it could be worth letting someone in.

A little rant about my love life under the cur, if anyone wants to listen

Perhaps you'll remember I mentioned a boyfriend. Probably not, since he was barely a footnote. Anyway, we broke up about a month ago. And I have relized I was right about how much love sucks. I have loved exactly two people in my whole life, and they both ended in much the same way. They simply changed their mind, cared too much about what other people thought of us, both tried to keep me like a secret, and both had an idea of perfection I could never fit. I sure know how to pick them. But I didn't realize all of this until after we ended it. Anyway, I'm trying to go back to who I was before him, and I'm intent of being single forever. This pain is just not worth it. Anyway, I write about it today because we had a talk. I had too many questions and needed to know the truth to move on. He was so needlessly cruel by the end. So, I got my answers and now it's time to move on. Perhaps a non-serious rebound is in order, I'm free as a bird after all.
