The fact that at least six infants have died in Gaza due to the cold just in the past few days is the clearest example of Israel's calculated incremental genocide.
Israel has been blocking crucial aid (tents and mobile homes) from entering Gaza, knowing full well what the weather was going to be like and the obvious consequences. Similarly, the rise in the number of amputations of diabetic patients in Gaza precisely because they haven't had access to their treatments which Israel is blocking.
It's not always thousands of tons of bombs and many times it's actually not televised or circulated. But every action that Israel takes is knowingly done to be another instrument in their genocide against Palestinians. From making the land unliveable to making it impossible to stay alive.

[Image Description:
Five screenshots of social media posts about Judge Ana Reyes:
The first post is by Rebecca Solnit, which reads:
We know who the villains are in this coup. But so many heroes are showing up to oppose them, and many of them are federal employees, including judges. I live you supreme boss-hero champion Judge Ana Reyes, taking on the military's trans ban by telling Team Trump they don't know shit and are ridiculous and schooling them in the realities of gender, pronouns, chromosomes, and other stuff you might want to know before you decide to launch an attack and take it before the bench.
A screenshot of a court transcript about the military trans ban is attached to this post, which reads:
Judge Reyes: EO 14183 adopts the definitions of a seperate executive order called Defending Women from Gender Ideology, Extremism and Restoring biological Truth to the federal government. And that EO states, "sex shall refer to an individual's immutable biological classification as either male or female." And it states that, "It is the policy of the United States to recognize two sexes, male and female." Do you see that or do you remember that?
Jason C. Lynch: I will take the court's word for it.
Judge Reyes: You understand, as a matter of biology, it's just incorrect that there are only two sexes, right?
Jason C. Lynch: Do I understand that to be incorrect was a biological matter?
Judge Reyes: Yes. It is incorrect as a biological matter. You understand that, right?
Jason C. Lynch: I don't understand that to be incorrect.
Judge Reyes: You understand that not everyone has an xx or an xy chromosome, right?
Jason C. Lynch: Honestly, no, I don't.
Judge Reyes: It's actually kind of a really important point because this executive order is premised on an assertion that's not biologically correct. There are anywhere near about 30 different intersex examples. So someone who does not have just xx or xy chromosomes is not just male or female. They're intersex. And there are over 30 potential different intersex examples. We've got genetic differences. We have people with xxx chromosomes. We have androgen insensitivity, xy genetically, that may have female external sex characteristics and internally have testes. There's a five alpha reductase deficiency that causes changes in testosterone metabolism, xy that may have female external genitalia or ambiguous genitalia. The point being, and I'm happy to have you guys brief this more if you want, but I'm telling you right now that there are more people who are neither male or female. And so the premise of the executive order is just incorrect.
The second post is by Elizabeth Cronise McLaughlin (@/ecmclaughlin.bsky.social). It is a quote post of Chris Geidner's (@/chrisgeidner.bsky.social) post that reads:
"Every single pronoun in the history of mankind has been invented." - Reyes's response to this part of the EO: (b) The Secretary shall promptly issue directives for DoD to end invented and identification-based pronoun usage to best achieve the policy outlined in section 2 of this order.
McLaughlin's response to Geidner's post, written in all capitals, reads:
THANK YOU JUDGE REYES.
The third screenshot contains two posts by Chris Geidner. The first reads:
Reyes asks if there is a current discrimination against transgender people, and the most DOJ's Lynch will say is, "I am sure they can find an instance of discrimination."
Reyes ten reads a list of Trump administration actions against transgender people in its first month.
The second most reads:
Reyes goes off.
"You cannot tell me that transgender people are not being discriminated against." Of the Stonewall website deletion, Reyes says, "We are literally erasing their contributions to modern society. ... It screams animus."
The fourth screenshot is by Mueller, She Wrote (@/muellershewrote.bsky.social), which reads:
Another fiery exchange from Judge Reyes in the trans military case:
A screenshot of a section of the court transcript about the military trans ban is attached, and reads:
REYES: [The order] calls an entire category of people dishonest, dishonorable, undisciplined, immodest, who lack integrity, people who have taken an oath to defend this country, people who have been under fire, people who have received medals for taking fire for this country. I want to know from the government whether that language expresses 'animus'. Does that express animus?
DOJ ATTORNEY: Not in any constitutional —
REYES: In a commonsense way. This is a policy from the President of the United States affecting thousands of people ... to call an entire group of people lying, dishonest people who are undisciplined, immodest, and have no integrity. How is that anything other than showing animus?
DOJ ATTORNEY: I don't have an answer for you.
REYES: You do have an answer, you just don't want to give it...Poeple who make solid arguments as to why some or even most transgender people shouldn't be in the military ... We're dealing with unadulterated animus. We are dealing with the president of the United States dealing with a group of people serving their country ... calling them liars.
(Reyes then said she changed her courtroom orders to bar people who graduated from UVA law school from appearing before her because "they're all liars and lack integrity and are undisciplined and can't possibly meet the high rigours of being a lawyer for the government". She made the DOJ lawyer sit down on that basis then, after he did, she called him back up and asked whether that was a display of animus.)
The fifth screenshot is by Kyle Cheney (@/kyledcheney.bsky.social) that reads:
Quite an exchange here between Judge Reyes and DOJ attorney on how "pronoun usage" affects military readiness.
Attached to the post is a screenshot of the court transcript for the military trans ban, which reads:
REYES: Can we agree that the greatest fighting force ... is not going to be impacted in any way by less than 1 percent of the soldiers using a different pronoun than others might want to call them?
DOJ ATTORNEY: I can't agree with that here.
REYES: Would you agree with me that if you military is negatively impacted in any kind of way that matters ... We all have a lot bigger problems than pronoun use. We have a military that is incompetent. Any common sense rational human being knows that it doesn't.
It is pretext. It is frankly ridiculous. If you want to get me an officer of the U.S. military who is willing to get on the stand and say that because of pronoun usage the U.S. military is less prepared because of pronoun usage. I will be the first to give you a box of cigars.

The post is a reaction post to a screenshot of court transcript from the United States of America. Ari Drennen's reaction to the transcripts read:
Trump's lawyers are absolutely flailing in courts right now
The screenshot of the court transcript reads:

Literally sobbing. A judge, a US judge defended us. A judge brought up intersex people, using the term intersex, to *defend* us by not allowing our erasure. I'm having a lot of feelings right now

please consider helping ghada's family (@ghadah-almadhoun). ghada has been trying to raise funds for her and her family for many months now but their campaign has been progressing very slowly. they are receiving roughly one donation every couple of days- this isn't nearly enough for them to be able to sustain themselves on. ghada has already lost her husband because of the violence and suffering that israel has inflicted upon palestine, and she and her children need our help to continue to survive. the currency for this campaign is in AUD, so please keep in mind that if you're in the U.S your money will go particularly far. $10 USD= $16 AUD.
ghada's campaign has been vetted and shared here (no. 330) gofundme link here
let's help this wonderful family as much as we can!

do i pity Taylor Swift? no, not really. do I like her? absolutely not. HOWEVER. I feel the emotion I'm feeling right now is the archnemesis seeing their hated enemy at their lowest and being like. honey. I can't even fight you rn. this is pathetic. pull yourself together. I hate you but I can't even battle you to the death with you running amuck like this.
like. girl. I hate you. I do not believe in the slightest you are the girl's girl feminist icon you portray yourself as. I think you're a capitalist vulture and I hate the whole girlboss economy. I think you have commodified artistry on a previously never seen before. but. I respect you for the levels you have taken it to. truly, a cis man could not have done what you have done. you took the man's game and made them look like toddlers when it comes to making money.
I respect the skill. and I despise you.
that being said.
please for the love of the gods dump him this is humiliating for BOTH of us. I am a dedicated hater out of RESPECT. this is too much. cut out the dead weight and I'm not even kidding.

Well, I'd say it has a big part to do with me being anattractional. So, like, fully aspec (aemotional, aphysical, and atertiary). I just don't understand love (and what it feels like) enough to resonate with that emotion. I may care for family and friends, but that's really because of the time I've spent with them than any love for them. I also don't like the way society typically portrays love, so even if I wasn't anattractional I'd probably still identify as loveless.
Can loveless aro/aces explain to me why/how they are loveless? Not that I don't think y'all are real, I just want to understand further.

"I don't have pronouns"
tl;dr a terf said "I don't use pronouns" and I took it personally - as a dumb transphobe gotcha and also as a phrase I am stealing it's mine now because I'm agender and it's more true for me than a garden variety bigot who thinks they're being clever
I just watched an amazingly frustrating video "debate" with a particularly irritating and stupid terf (you can't walk into a debate and expect "some trans people I know" to hold up when asked for a source), but the section from the very start is what I've been pondering. It starts with the host asking for name/age/pronouns, and of course the caller responds that "I do not have pronouns," which strikes me as being an absolutely bananas way of answering the question.
What does it mean to "have" pronouns? "Have" implies something attributed to yourself, something that belongs to you - having a name, a sense of humor, hair of a specific color, a favorite food, preferred outfits. These things aren't necessarily meaningful to you or unique, they are mostly descriptors when used by other people. Pronouns are a general descriptor in the sense of indicating a gender based in which one is used - he/him for male/masculine, she for female/feminine, they for neither/unknown*.
This is what strikes me as odd, because the terf almost certainly does have pronouns by this understanding. So what was meant by "I don't have pronouns?" I assume that, since I've heard of the insult "pronoun-haver", it refers to using pronouns that don't necessarily reflect your "biological truth". And because gender, sex, and pronouns all describe the same thing**, a terf would not "have" pronouns, the terf would simply be a him or her.
Which still doesn't answer the question of what pronouns you use, but of course you shouldn't have to ask what pronouns you use, they must be assumed by your presentation. If pronoun use is incorrect, then it's an honest misunderstanding but also probably your fault for not presenting the correct answer obviously enough. (this paragraph is deeply sarcastic).
There's a much larger conversation I could get into about transphobes using language that isn't widely understood outside their own circles (a both sides problem, tbf), but my complaint is with a terf using "I don't have pronouns." And also this post got too long anyway.
The host of the video assumes "I don't have pronouns" meant "I don't use pronouns" (and makes a very heavy point of expressing how stupid that statement is). This annoyed me a bit because that's not what the terf said, but I also can't fault him because he's a streamer taking volunteers up for debate, and you get what you get when you don't use clear answers after volunteering to debate.
I wanted to use "if you can't answer as simple a question as 'name, age, pronouns' then you shouldn't be offering to debate someone" in that last section. I didn't because I realized while typing that I, personally, can't answer a question as simple as "what pronouns do you use". It's been coming up more often as I've been more openly presenting as agender/nonbinary, and I never have a good answer besides "no strong preference", or "she/her is fine" for a less outing response. I don't find any of the options particularly meaningful (except as an indicator that I am not necessarily being read as "woman", which is very cool and awesome).
I also don't find she/her harmful - it's like being called [incorrect pronunciation of my legal name that I've been hearing for 27 years and have grown used to]; that's not me, but I understand you're talking to/about me, even if it isn't right. Unlike [incorrect pronunciation], however, I don't have something to correct people with if I'm called she/her. I can't tell if I actually like they/them or he/him better or if I only enjoy the novelty of being referred to that way.
To get to the point I think I wanted to make, terfs/transphobes using "I don't have pronouns" is stupid and unclear to anyone who isn't them, and that's why I'm reclaiming it for me and the other agender people who don't have preferred pronouns. "I dOn'T hAvE pRoNoUnS" yes the fuck you do go to hell I don't have pronouns.
*and a variety of others for more specific gender identities, but the subject of conversation is terf logic, we know they aren't using alternative/neo pronouns (except maybe for it/its)
**which, by transphobe logic, is what's in your pants
#love reclaiming shit from terfs#I'm agender#I don't use third person pronouns#you do have pronouns Karen#but I sure as hell don't#agender#terfs#terfs suck and are stupid#I don't make the rules

Love my dad's thinly veiled aphobia (transphobia????). Talking about pronouns and changing names and the way people dress. Boasting (bragging? making a point???) to me about how my sibling said it was okay for him to call them by she/her when they use they/them. Telling me that his cousin's "son" has changed "his" name, and then getting confused when I go: "Oh, so she's a girl, right" because she goes by Alexi and uses she/her pronouns and is a fucking girl dad.
Saying that I'm a girl because I dress like one (clothes are cloths. the only reason you think my clothes are feminine is because they're commonly worn by women). Saying that I "choose to believe that" when I go: "Well, regardless of what you think, we can both agree that I'm not a girl (agender)." It's like he's saying: "There, there, sweetie. You can play make-believe with your silly gender stuff. You're always going to be a girl, no matter what you say". Get fucked.
I hate how I have to keep a cordial relationship with him. I cannot support myself financially and I need his help with that. But he is a bigot who refuses to try and change and learn and even acknowledge that his children aren't female (as if he hadn't tried to force my mum to have a third child, despite her being close to 40 and having health issues, just so he could try for a son. he never wanted daughters, but he can't stand the idea of us not being girls).
#rant#rant post#agender#aphobia#transphobia#father#shitty dad#I just hate it so much#he's out of the house#thank fucking god#but I still need him in my life because I literally cannot work because of my disability#and he tries to act like an ally#but he has pushed back against my sib and I whenever we've come out about a part of our identity#it's just a phrase#don't label yourself#how about go fuck yourself dad#I've told him repeatedly to not refer to me with gendered language#I've told him that I don't use pronouns#does he respect any of this???#NO

I know that many people have shared the Shehab family's old campaign, which was recently frozen by GoFundMe after raising more than €78K in donations. (See this post for information.)
They now have a NEW campaign, the link above, but because they had to start over, as of 11:30 GMT on 14 November 2024, they are only up to $1,005 CAD / $100,000 CAD.
Fahed (@fahedshehab-new) and Reem urgently need to get a new tent that will keep their children warm in the winter. (Their current tent will not.) The Shehabs have set a short-term goal of $5,055 CAD for this purpose. Right now, the family still needs at least $4,050 CAD (around $3,000 USD) to reach this short-term goal. (The odd amount is to make sure they can cover the transfer and bank fees.)
Please help!

To cope with the harsh reality of our daily life, we find ourselves trying to make the best of food that should otherwise be deemed unfit for consumption. Flour, often infested with weevils and carrying a musty odor, is made palatable only by adding vanilla and cinnamon. Even more challenging is the fact that we must cook using firewood, as basic resources are scarce. This experience underscores our resilience and the harsh conditions we face to provide even the simplest meals.
"In challenging times, we all need the support of others to find the strength to move forward. Cooperation and mutual care are what help us overcome hardships and rebuild hope."

Help Family Raghad🙏🏻🍉
Hello everyone! My name is Raghad and I am from Gaza. I am currently in my third year of university at the Faculty of Dentistry in Egypt. Before the genocide, I relied on paying my tuition fee ($3000) from my father. Now, our home in the Gaza Strip in the Khan Younis area has been destroyed. Throughout the genocide, my dear father lost his job, which was our source of livelihood, and all of our financial resources became inaccessible.

Currently, my mother’s family (my mother’s brothers and sisters and their children) and my father’s family (my father’s brothers and sisters and their children) are all in the Gaza Strip in an area called Al-Mawasi. All of them live in tents and are struggling everyday to survive.


Living in Egypt has increasingly been difficult for me and my family. 5 months ago, my family (my mother, father, three sisters and one brother) evacuated from Gaza and are struggling to pay our rent and daily expenses. My brother,@mahmoud-sd who is still studying high school online, needs $100 per month for his tuition. My three sisters, who are also in school, each require $100 per month for their tuition.

Due to the harsh living conditions and the extremely high cost of living in Egypt, we must pay $150 per month for rent. Additionally, we face great difficulty in meeting our obligations, as my family’s monthly expenses are approximately $600, covering high prices for food, water, electricity, gas bills, and medical expenses for my grandmother.

In conclusion, I need about $20,000 in total to cover me and my family’s Here are the details:
>>>FAMILY NEEDS<<<
*Housing and Daily Expenses*:
- House rent: $150 per month
- Monthly family expenses: $600 (includes high prices for food, water, electricity, and gas bills)
- Medical expenses for grandmother
*Education*:
- Brother’s high school tuition: $100 per month
- Three sisters’ school tuition: $100 per month each
*Extended Family*:
- Mother’s family and father’s family in Gaza (Al-Mawasi area) living in tents and struggling to survive
>>>EXPENSES FOR RAGHAD<<<
*University Tuition*:
- Previous academic year: $3000
- Current academic year: $3000
- Total tuition fees: $6000
*Dental Supplies*:
- Cost: $300
*Daily Living Expenses*:
- Monthly expenses: $100
Everything we have in Gaza has been destroyed. I know that you have unconditional love for the people of Gaza and that you support us.
Donate if$20. if you can't donte, share my story,please! l need your donate to help me and my family🙏🏻😥

Emergency: Help Evacuate My Family From GAZA WAR
Dear Humanity,
I'm Haya from Gaza , from a family of 8 people: my parents, two sons, and four daughters (two of them suffer from allergies).

I've witnessed the evidence of the tragedy that has struck our lives in Gaza, where my family and I have survived amidst numerous previous wars. But today, we face the most dangerous and fierce battle in the current war. The urgent need intensifies for us, as we have nothing left and are unable to secure our basic needs such as food, water, and safe shelter.
Here is our story - On October 7th, our lives changed forever, my family and I evacuated from northern Gaza to southern Gaza, hoping to return soon, but it wasn't meant to be. Our home was surrounded, burned, and then completely destroyed, Our home, once a fortress of hope, now lay in ruins, a stark reminder of our shattered dreams.
The night before we left from the north to the south was terrifying. Shelling sounds were everywhere, making a loud noise that felt like it went through our souls. Every explosions shook the ground like earthquakes, sending shockwaves of fear through our trembling bodies. filling us with fear. The air smelled of destruction and blood, making it hard to breathe. When dawn came, we saw the devastation around us, realizing our home was now a symbol of loss and despair.
We ran into the streets and with each step we took into the unknown streets, we felt as if we were plunging deeper into the abyss of our shattered existence, leaving behind everything we own in our home: Clothes, important official documents, the car, and literally it's almost everything - the enormity of our loss weighed heavily upon us.
Our home it was where we found hope, safety, and made precious memories. Losing it felt like losing years of our lives, leaving us adrift amidst the wreckage of our shattered existence.

I, Haya, suffer from severe allergy to penicillin-derived medications, and my sister, Amal, also suffers from severe allergies to medications from my family such as Paracetamol and Ibuprofen.
These allergies create a deep sense of fear and anxiety for us, as we live in a constant state of tension and fear of anything that may require a visit to the hospital. We fear being given inappropriate medications due to the unavailability of suitable treatments in Gaza because of war or lack of awareness and not informing the doctor of our allergies, which could lead to serious consequences threatening our lives.

Our dreams are heading towards oblivion in the labyrinth of an uncertain future
My story, along with my siblings, represents a united team of four individuals, three of whom are skilled programmers and one graphic designer. We work as freelancers in the world of freelancing.

As for my younger sister, she is a student studying at the College of Architecture. She has always carried a big dream in her heart, a dream of being part of changing Gaza, of making it more beautiful and better. She looked forward to the day when she would receive her degree and start building this dream. But the beginning of the war changed everything. The destruction of infrastructure and universities cast shadows of despair over her dreams.

When I think of my brother in Belgium, I can't help but feel deep sadness. He has been suffering from unbearable anxiety and insomnia since the outbreak of the war. Sleep eludes him at night, and his physical and mental health collapses under the weight of these heavy burdens, negatively affecting his performance at work. Problems and challenges pile up in front of him without the slightest opportunity for rest.
We all feel psychological pressure and extreme anxiety. The war hasn't been limited to external attacks but has deeply infiltrated our daily lives. We search among the rubble for a little safety and the basic resources for survival. Every day comes with a new challenge that we must overcome.
As we sway amidst the rubble of shattered dreams, our souls wrestle and our hearts beat strongly challenging the ravages of war.
Our parents earnestly seek a way to rescue us from this hell, feeling the heavy responsibility for every moment we spend under the shadows of fear and destruction. They dream of a safe place where they can build for us a better future, filled with security and hope, for we deserve life in all its meanings of comfort and peace.
Perhaps this fundraising campaign represents a light in the midst of darkness, it is indeed the only hope we cling to firmly.
I appeal to the world as a whole to hear my cry and the mournful cry of my family in Gaza. We need the helping hand that reaches out to wipe our tears and build a bridge to safety.
Your donation is not just a donation; it's an opportunity to rebuild life and brighten a better tomorrow. Be part of our hopeful story, for we need your hand to start anew.
The purpose of the fundraising campaign
The goal of this fundraising campaign is to rescue my family - my parents, my siblings, and me - through the Rafah Crossing to Egypt, which currently requires $5000 per person. This campaign is our only chance to stay alive, and I humbly request your assistance at this critical time. I will provide you with a comprehensive breakdown of the expenses, committing to transparency and clarity.
