No offense but I think some of you would be a lot happier writing a fictional atlas or encyclopedia instead of a narrative story

this is the exact same issue with administrative records refusing to allow people to input accents on the letters in their names, having length requires on names, only allowing Latin alphabet characters, not allowing people put their last name first, or refusing to let people only input a single name. These administrative decisions are made with the logic that everyone’s names are fully legible with an unaccented Latin alphabet, that all naming conventions follow First Name Last Name, and that all people have a given name and a family name. These are not neutral assumptions! And sure maybe the Joe Averages who built the system didn’t have a racist or xenophobic bone in their bodies, but that is irrelevant when analysing its impacts. Administrative infrastructure is built on a series of decisions, and those decisions are not apolitical. You are a silly little person if you argue this is trivial

As an ndn I find a little joy in being just a little bit of a hater about cowboys. Like not really. It's not that serious. But every so often I want to start talking about historical context & make everybody uncomfortable. Like when somebody's a little too into pirate shows yknow

If you do have PayPal (I have one, as well!), then did you know that it has shut down fundraising services on October 7th, 2024? They have given a deadline for those who have a fundraiser to complete raising funds by January 12th, 2025!

Did you also know PayPal has for years now partnered with ADL, a Zionist organization that overlooks all transactions and actively takes measures to harm Palestinian people?

Iyad Sobhe (@iyadsgaza) and Ruba Abushahan (@rubashsblog) are raising funds with PayPal ever since GFM has either terminated their fundraiser or made them lose access. Iyad has lost 11K while Ruba has can no longer withdraw the 27K.

They cannot afford to start all over when PayPal is their last resort. So we have less than 2 MONTHS to raise the entire amount of 60K. Please donate and share! Donations have slowed down significantly, resulting in 1 or 2 donations per day, when we should be raising $600!

You can match my friend! She has given $10 USD, but you're more than welcome to give any amount. Even $1 USD! You can also participate in an art raffle hosted by @/transformers4palestine. The 2nd round of winners will be declared on November 20th, so check it out, join in, and be part of the fun!

Verification: #90 for Ruba and #173 for Iyad in the Spreadsheet. (Keep in mind that the document has not been updated and does not reflect the current fundraiser. You can learn about it here)
