The world ended. 75% of plant and animal life was gone forever. Then tomorrow came. So it goes; happy new year.

Little Majd needs your help

Majd Al-Habeel @youseffamily has known little of life without suffering. After losing his home to IOF bombardment, he and his parents were forced to live in a tent. This wreaked havoc on Majd’s health, as he is diagnosed with a serious respiratory illness that limits his ability to breathe. Living in a tent leaves one exposed to dust, dirt, debris, vermin, mold, fungus, and harsh weather—the worst possible environment for a child with his condition.

His family requires mutual aid to provide for Majd’s life-saving care, as well as to procure food, water, medications, other supplies, and clothing and gear for winter. They are a little over two-thirds of the way to their current listed goal, with still a long way to go. Please help this family out and give sweet Majd a better chance at life.

Thank you❤️

Majd’s family’s campaign was reblogged by 90-ghost and is supported by @khanger

[Image ID: The poem “One Source of Bad Information”, by Robert Bly.  There’s a boy in you about three years old who hasn’t learned a thing for thirty Thousand Years. Sometimes it’s a girl.  The child had to make up its mind How to save you from death. He said things like:  “Stay home. Avoid elevators. Eat only elk.”  You live with this child, but you don’t know it.  You’re in the office, yes, but live with this boy  At night. He’s uninformed, but he does want To save your life. And he has. Because of this boy  You survived a lot. He’s got six big ideas.  Five don’t work. Right now he’s repeating them to you.

i don't really know the difference between many music genres but that's okay because i listen to music with love in my heart and if i like the song i go yayyy and if i don't like it then i simply understand that the joy in this song is meant for someone else which means it's still good and makes others go yayyy n my opinions on a song doesn't make it or the genre it belongs to bad it just means my heart needs to grow more in order to love more music and that growth will come in time

you'll get the urge as an artist or a writer to say out loud the things you're worried about "the proportions are off" "kind of out of character" "i'm not good at summaries" "didn't get as much detail as i wanted" "i made a mistake and here's how" and that's the self-conscious part of your brain telling you "it's bad and if you don't tell them you know it's bad then they'll think you're stupid" but you've got to ignore that little voice and pretend you think it's good or else that little voice is going to ruin your life

of all the things that scare me about palestine one of them is the lure of the story, the lure of turning people to myths, because its something i find myself doing. many things that have happened in gaza have become much larger than life. i keep thinking about khaled nabhan, who held his granddaughter so tenderly and called her the soul of my soul, and how those words and that image became so enormous that he was killed a year later wearing a t-shirt that a company had made to fundraise using those words—the soul of my soul. a doctor had brought it in for him from abroad. he was already a myth before he was dead.

i thought about it just now when i saw this image of dr hussam abu safiya walking towards an israeli tank after his "hospital fell" — the words of the poet mosab abu toha, that he used unconsciously in how he described the israeli siege of the last remaining hospital in the north of gaza. he said the hospital fell like it was a fortress. dr hussam abu safiya's teenage son was killed the first time israel raided the hospital. for over a month he refused to abandon his patients while he grieved. in that time we found out other hospital directors had been tortured after being arrested by israeli: doctor muhamed abu silmiya of al-shifa hospital (who was released after months of torture) and doctor adnan al-bursh who was tortured to death. in that month of starvation we saw him comforting his colleagues who lost their children to israeli attacks, and then he lost those colleagues themselves in israeli shelling of the hospital. still the hospital stayed, and dr hussam abu safiya stayed. he recorded a video from inside the hospital almost every day, showing the immobile patients and the brave staff, explaining that he would not abandon them. a delegation from indonesia made it to the hospital and tried to stay with the palestinian staff, israel forced them to leave at gunpoint. dr hussam stayed through it all.

after two months of siege, after ethnically cleansing the rest of northern gaza, israel finally forced its way into kamal adwan hospital and forcibly evacuated the staff and the patients. fifty people were killed during the attack, numerous patients and civilians (including women) stripped and abused by the soldiers, and forced to march in their underwear out in the freezing cold. and finally this is how we get this image, the last time dr hussam abu safiya was seen as israel burned down the hospital he had done his best for, walking alone through the rubble towards the israeli tanks, knowing what awaits him:

a lot of the things happening in gaza right now and over the past year are much larger than most people can accept. they are acts of heroism and tragedy that demand to be remembered. and because palestinians have asked us to bear witness, at least to bear witness, we have fallen into the habit of a kind of mythologizing. in arabic and english. i've seen it from gazans themselves, who have often written their own eulogies and wills before dying. this is how systemic this genocide has been. how forecasted. how foretold.

i think a lot about refaat al areer's work, and his famous poem "if i must die" that he wrote before his death. refaat is another story from gaza that was already mythologized by none other than himself. but i also know people who knew refaat personally. they don't talk about him like a story. they talk about him like a friend they lost. they talk about him like a teacher they lost. when that happens the mythology around him seems very small and worthless compared to the scale of the loss.

people from gaza aren't predestined myths. they're not dead people walking. they're not heroes we are here to watch die. they're not stories and tragedies to mine. they're people. this is a person who has just lived through all that. these are hundreds of thousands of people who just lived through all of these things. these are hundreds of thousands of people who have lost all of these things. and israel is full of people who did that to them. that's a story too, i guess.

🚩⬇️An update on the conditions of Mohammad, his pregnant wife, and his children🚩⬇️😭😭

Thank you for your small support for my family and my wife, as we were able to purchase some treatments. She received iron and her condition improved slightly, and her blood level rose from 8.7 to 9.7, but she needs more treatment so that she does not suffer from bleeding at birth.

🚨We also need to buy healthy food, which is available in the markets at exorbitant prices. For example, a kilo of apples costs 20€. Everything is expensive and we cannot buy it because we have no other source of income. We depend on canned foods, which are very harmful to pregnant women, such as only beans and peas. We even miss flour. Its price has become 100€. I ask you to donate to me via the link, because any small donation means a lot to us so that we can buy what my family needs.

🍉Because of the tent and the cold weather🤧🤒🤕 My child Azad suffers from gastroenteritis and high temperature, and his condition is very bad and difficult.

I need your donation to buy curtains and wood because their prices have become double than before for our tent to protect my children and my soon-to-be-born wife from the cold and winter that has invaded our tent.

Help us to live, help us to dream of a better future, because every hand extended to us today gives us a new chance at life.

Thank you in advance for every donation, no matter how small, it makes a big difference for us 🇵🇸🍉❤️‍🩹🙏

homeless trans woman still needs help

hey guys, i was homeless all of 2024 during a suicide attempt. thanks to the success of last month's post, as well as some in-kind contributions in transportation i'm on track to fix that by late january-maybe early february but. you know. it's a whole process.

i gave up my immigration bid after/during my suicide attempt and i need to start anew which comes with substantial legal costs as well so please continue to trust me when i say this is all going to a good cause

in addition to donations and signal boosts, follows are very welcome.

ko-fi/paypal link -- please note that anyone with a paypal can donate via ko-fi, but going through ko-fi helps me protect my personal information

i am currently a lifestyle hitchhiker which is a kind of homeless person.

this has its own dangers attached so i'd like to be in a good financial position to get off the streets sooner rather than later without jeopardising my competing needs in terms of immigration

$960 remaining to goal

[oracleswarmer]

hate when people are like "trust your gut! listen to your intuition!" like okay well my gut is telling me every person i lay eyes on is hunting me for sport and my intuition is saying i should find a secluded cave and live there forever so what do you suggest i do with that information

[oracleswarmer]

talking to myself out loud and disagreeing with myself every now and then so that the spirits lingering in the cold corners of my room don't accuse me of monolithic thinking
