N.B.: These are all Palestinian fundraisers who have reached out to my inbox or my side-blog's inbox (@videogamepoc). These fundraisers are roughly listed in the chronlogical order in which I've received them. They have all been verified by other Palestinian accounts active on Tumblr. I am not vetting any myself, as I am not qualified. If you have a question of whether a fundraiser is vetted or would like to have one vetted, please ask another account that is able to do so. I’ll also be updating these as I get new asks.

Hello everybody, this is a serious post, which will contain the following.

The following trigger warnings :

Domestic Abuse, Child Endangerment, Physical Harm, Blood, Violence.

My name, as many of you know, is Valentine, but for the purposes of helping me, you may call me Reysa. I am in a dangerous situation, with several complications. For now, I am safe. But for those of you who know me, and know me well... this is a scary situation. Many of you do not know, I am a mother, and the only reason I do commissions is to help pay bills and help provide for my son. While I do have a main source of income, this is a good side for money if I am productive.

However, for the unforeseen future, I may not be able to continue commissions. I was in a situation recently that forced me to leave home for the safety of me and my son. I cannot afford to spend time working on commissions currently. If you would like to get a refund, please let me know.

However, if you guys could please do anything and bring attention to here : https://gofund.me/2737cd13

I would appreciate it. I need as much help and support as I can get. My son is 3. I need to get as much as I can to be able to support him if I have to leave my current job.

Please. This is real. Attached in the read more will be a few of my injuries. Please... please help us.

22:00 IN THE MIDDLE OF JULY.      the sky is tense and oppressive– the night leaden with the impending threat of a heaving storm,    the kind where its shoulders shake,    loud cries that hit the pavement like a car crash.      it hasn’t rained in weeks.      the blood left to scab on the wall comes away in days- dried flakes.      

my shadow slices into the doorway with a knife’s edge,    darkening the threshold of the once- was townhouse,    ducking beneath the yellow tape ( i am,    i suppose,    haloed for a few moments by the streetlight.      a flickering thing,    dimming with every passing minute,    smothered by the hazard lights of cop cars ).      nature has half- eaten it by tonight: a tree grows into the left window,    the floorboards moaning and pleading like a confessional under all the boots and red- stained sneakers marching in and out⸻ it’s almost swallowed the body that lay,    purpling and bulbous and greedy,    leaking into the grain.      with the arterial spray decorating the wallpaper like forgotten graffiti,    the flash of an officer’s camera hits me unguarded,    and i recoil all the same,    retreating to the quietude of the cracked tiles and rust of the kitchen.      the wind blows through the busted windows,    rustling the tarp as i enter and another cop exits.     

we are two mercurial bodies,    but i’d be lying if i said i was surprised to meet him here,    that @lockvale.      the ends of my fingers– bit down to a deep rawness– started aching the moment i stepped foot in this shithole.      “ nothing human lives here, ” he mutters as i stuff my hands into my back pockets,    just brushing the holster on my thigh.      nothing more than a reminder that it’s there.     

“ maybe once.      maybe a long while ago.      if you’re thinking an EO did it,    what does that make you? ” less than human, or more than? i cross the breath lingering between us; i am unimpressed by the size of his gravity.      and then, “ what does that make me? .. what are you doing here,    victor? ”

in having to pay some expenses including a six hundred late bill , my bank account is super overdrawn while I am taking money out of my paycheck daily it takes at least a day to get the money . hence I am reopening writing commissions for 10 dollars - this will be poetry / short writings in response to a prompt you give me . they probably won’t be over five hundred words due to the pricing and i am willing to revisions if your not happy with what you get . examples : one - two - three and can be found at eatingjupiter.tumblr.com and my payments can be done through paypal/venmo . I am gonna start with ten people , just to make sure i can get the stuff out asap. Please share even if you cannot or do not want one.

important to note than there are also gofundmes for Palestinians who need funds to rebuild their homes and businesses that need as much attention as gofundmes for those fleeing genocide. I feel like helping Palestinians shouldn't be synonymous with displacement.

gazafunds seeks to uplift stagnant or otherwise struggling fundraisers for gazans seeking evacuation or simple necessities. i know many of the images crossing your feeds today are harrowing and impossible to fathom, but those in the line of fire need your help, not your complacency. gazafunds also urges those who are able to adopt a fundraiser to amplify to do so (you can contact them via their twitter.)

please donate what you can to medglobal, who are working to provide emergency relief in sudan; $12 USD provides an emergency kit, $20 provides medical PPE, & $50 will provide 50 liters of diesel fuel for hospital generators

the story of a new name, pt. 1.

dialogue prompts from the story of a new name by elena ferrante.

you were born twisted.

i'm not capable of loving anyone like that.

all i know is how to get along with books.

swear you won't ever leave me alone.

it's very true that i don't understand you.

what you do, i do. you can't leave me behind.

why didn't you tell me you were back?

i didn't want you to see me.

we've been wrong about everything.

politics is ugly, but it's important for making money.

i understood, and i didn't understand.

you look the way you do when you're happy.

there are things you know that can't be said.

a bet is a bet, and you lost.

i have an emptiness inside me that weighs me down.

i know i have to resign myself, but i just can't do it.

i see no reason for resignation and no beauty.

things without meaning are the most beautiful ones.

lucky you. you've got everything that counts.

your mother will be angry.

i will always make life difficult for you.

you said goodbye to everyone but me.

you're a pain in the ass, but when you do a thing, you do it right.

you're not yourself anymore. what happened to you?

i've always known you were dangerous.

why do you always want to be a pain in the ass?

what newspaper do you read?

is it clear what i've got myself into?

i don't like what i've done, and what i'm doing.

touch me and you'll burn.

you are wasted here.

you'll do what you want. as usual.

i always have to prove that i can be better.

don't trust me. don't trust what i say and do.

help me. stay near me.

i tell you all my secrets, even the worst.

you tell me hardly anything about yourself.

the only person i don't hide anything from is you.

i will always be your friend.

planning isn't going to change the world. it will take blood.

we should make war on war itself.

not a thought in your head is your own.

could we go for a walk?

i like talking to you.

do you think i look like my father?

there are people who leave, and people who know how to be left.

stay. you can leave tomorrow morning.

i'm afraid of being alone.

you couldn't even say hello?

cut out your tongue.

why did you marry that moron?

you have the voice of a person who doesn't want to hurt anyone.

i don't understand what you're getting at.

why do you only show your serious side?

i'd just like a little intimacy. even if it's polite.

you think only the big questions are important.

i'm fine. i don't even know what's wrong with me.

for your whole life you love people, and you never really know who they are.

what i say counts for nothing with you.

for the whole week, all i did was think about you.

as soon as i fall asleep, i have terrible dreams, and i'm awake all night.

you're so good that sometimes you make me mad.

how stubborn you are. how courageous.

a little comfort isn't a sin.

i don't want to be here a minute longer.

we can't go back. life takes us where it wants.
