You have to take into account where you started from. Especially when something doesn't work out. Lately I've been thinking about how the goal for some of us at this point isn't the big dreams, it's about being intact. And that's so much, it's more than enough, it's actually the biggest thing. If you went through hell in early life and you're able to wake up and drink your glass of water and check your schedule and go to work and take a bath when you're sore or sad and go to bed when you're tired, the rest will come. I get better at rationalizing the doom spirals and looking at things in terms of chunks of time - do this for 3 weeks, live here for 3 months. And I'm deeply proud of myself for being able to hold it together like that. It’s become a win instead of a loss because I know how hard I worked to get here

I finished my Masters in Library and Informational Science! People asked me what I wanted as a graduation gift and I said that all I want is for you to help out @abo-ataa to support his family this winter by donating to his paypal below.

Please consider donating to my friend Hussam, he has been displaced from his home in Rafah, and has to take care of his children in this freezing cold weather without even a proper tent! A few dollars will go a long way, no matter how small! Consider it a graduation gift for me if you appreciated any of my posts on tumblr!

The Israeli attacks, which exceed 350 since the fall of Damascus, have wiped out most of Syria’s military capabilities. The Israeli army also significantly expanded its illegal occupation in the country. [...]

There has been documented evidence over the years regarding Syria’s extremist opposition cooperating with Israel, particularly during 2014 battles in Quneitra, when fighters from the Nusra Front – the Al-Qaeda group that became HTS – were receiving air cover from Israeli jets and being treated in Israeli hospitals in the occupied Golan Heights.

Political Syrian opposition organizations have also enjoyed ties with Tel Aviv. Fahd al-Masri, a former Free Syrian Army (FSA) spokesman and member of the Belgium-based National Salvation Front in Syria, told Israeli news outlet i24 after president Bashar al-Assad's government was ousted on Sunday: “Without the blows you inflicted on Hezbollah and Iran, we could not free Syria,” Masri said. “Thank you, Israel. This is an Israeli victory, our brothers and neighbors.”

HTS leader Abu Mohammad al-Julani, who has recently started going by his real name Ahmad al-Sharaa, told a reporter this week that his message to foreign countries is that Syria is tired from war and not looking to enter another one, adding that the main “fear” was of Hezbollah and “Iranian militias.”

Arnaout, who refused to answer Channel 4’s questions on Israeli airstrikes, gave an interview on 7 December with the Center for Peace Communications – a New York-based “non-profit” organization that is funded by pro-Israel lobbies and promotes “reconciliation” in the region.

New community kitchen serving Mawasi Al-Qarara refugee camp in west Gaza

This is an initiative aiming to buy food, diapers, and other necessities in bulk to distribute to the residents of Mawasi Al-Qarara camp. The campaign is vouched for by one of my contacts in Gaza, who lives in the camp and will be helping with distribution.

From the campaign page:

The families in the Mawasi Al-Qarara area are facing unbearable challenges, being displaced from their homes and living under the constant threat of missiles, disease, and starvation. We aim to provide as much aid as possible using every penny given to us. Mohammed and his brothers, Salah and Youssef, will be on the ground distributing everything to the people of the camp. These families are in desperate need of help. We hope to alleviate some of their fears and worries of death by starvation or illness, as they navigate such challenging circumstances. Your support can make a significant difference. Thank you for your generosity.

Please give generously and share broadly!
