If you haven’t started already, start archiving/downloading everything. Save it to an external hard drive if you’re able. Collecting physical media is also a good idea, if you’re able.
Download your own/your favorite fanfics. Save as much as you can from online sources/digital libraries. Recipes, tutorials, history, LGBTQ media, etc. It has been claimed, though I can’t find the exact source if true, that some materials about the Revolutionary War were deleted from the Library of Congress.
It’s always better to be safe than sorry and save and preserve what you can. Remember that cloud storage also is not always reliable!
Library of Congress - millions of books, films and video, audio recordings, photographs, newspapers, maps, manuscripts.
Internet Archive - millions of free texts, movies, software, music, websites, and more. Has been taken offline multiple times because of cyber attacks last month, it has recently started archiving again.
Anna's Archive - 'largest truly open library in human history.’
Queer Liberation Library - queer literature and resources. Does require applying for a library membership to browse and borrow from their collection.
List of art resources - list of art resources complied on tumblr back in 2019. Not sure if all links are still operational now, but the few I clicked on seemed to work.
Alexis Amber - TikToker who is an archivist who's whole page is about archiving. She has a database extensively recording the events of Hurricane Katrina.
I'll be adding more to this list, if anyone else wants to add anything feel free!

Lebanon and Gaza are one body🇵🇸🇱🇧
Please pray for Lebanon and Gaza. Lebanon is going through the same suffering that the Palestinian people are going through. Houses are being bombed over the heads of their residents. My family and I were exposed to these circumstances. The upper floor of the house was bombed and we are in I cannot describe to you the horror of the scene except in one word. It is extremely difficult and unimaginable. Therefore, I hope that you do not go through the suffering that we are going through and that the people of Lebanon are currently going through.
DON'T FORGET OUR PEOPLE IN LEBANON🇱🇧

Since the r-slur is making a comeback (you know, the word that starts with R, has six letters, and ends in D), I'm gonna make a little PSA:
Yes, it's an ableist slur.
Terms like "asshat," "head-up-ass," "up their own ass," and "high on their own farts" exist. There's also words like crap, dogshit, half-assed, assclown, and chucklefuck. And on the less vulgar side, there are terms like ridiculous, nonsense, train wreck, pointless, insipid, self-absorbed, pretentious, annoying, boring, contemptible, vile, and disgusting.
Substituting words like restarted, poptarted, brain damaged, smoothbrain, etc. is still ableist, because either 1. you obviously still mean the r-word, or 2. you're still using disability as an insult.

Palestine fundraisers with easily-achievable goals
By "easily-achievable", I mean in the 50-60K range and below. Once again, drawing from my pinned list of fundraisers, which have all been vetted by Palestinians on Tumblr (check that post for the proof next to each family name). I'll update this post just like the main list and the "under 1000 donations" list. Many of these are extremely close to completing their funding. Let's help get them there!
As always, donate if you can, reblog if you can't!
LAST UPDATED 9/2
10K range
Aya's family Goal: 15K 2/3 funded
The Saftawi family Goal: 16K 3147 TO GO!
20K range
The Sami family Goal: 20K Half funded
Zaen and Yehya Goal: 25K 1/4 funded
The Ismaeel family Goal: 25K 1/3 funded
Ashraf's family Goal: 25K 4019 TO GO!
30K range
Ahmed's family Goal: 30K 1/3 funded
The Alnabih family Goal: 30K 4434 TO GO!
The Khalaf family Goal: 30K 2875 TO GO!
Issam Aziz's mother Goal: 30K 4053 TO GO!
Amira's family Goal: 39K 2/3 funded
40K range
The Hor family Goal: 40K Under 1/5 funded
The Abushammaleh family Goal: 40K 1/3 funded
The Shaqoura family Goal: 45K Half funded
The Aburass family Goal: 45K 1/4 funded
Note: The Aburass campaign is in SEK, so the goal is technically 450K, but converted to USD it's closer to 45. Ultimately I decided to include this one since USD, CAD, GBP, and EUR will be more powerful here, and a huge chunk of the site's user base will pay with one of those currencies. The more hands on deck, the better.
50K range
Amal's family Goal: 50K Under 1/5 funded
Walaa's family Goal: 50K 1/5 funded
The Shorbaje family Goal: 50K 1/3 funded
The Aldeeb family Goal: 55K 2/3 funded

Palestinian men should not have to repeatedly hold up pictures of their family struggling through a genocide, for us to care about them. Fundraisers conducted by/for Palestinian men, should not have to repeatedly refer to their mothers, sisters, wives and children, to make us realize their humanity, their vulnerability. Enough. Isn't it enough after so many months? Hadn't it always been enough?
