genuine question — how is donating money going to help Palestinians if no food is going in? What is the money for?
Medicine, water, supplies, food, fuel (much of it black market being upsold at egregious prices) — these all cost money and pretty much all Palestinians in Gaza have no source of income now. It’s drops in the bucket compared to ending the siege and occupation but it’s one way to do at least something small to help. Others are in need of money to evacuate when the border opens again (which hopefully is asap…), tuition and supplies for school to continue studies despite it all. Another fund is focused on trying to rebuild farmlands in Gaza to get food again that way.
I can’t tell anyone what to do with their money but I don’t think this mindset of “well nothings going in so we can’t help” is helpful for people on the ground who are the ones saying that donations can and do help them survive.

My baby is home please help us survive
My daughter and I are finally together again after both being homeless. She's only 15 and after everything she's been through she really needs to stay with her mother (me).

I think it’s incredibly fucked how capitalism discourages learning for learning’s sake. People will have interests they’ve spent years researching then say it’s “useless knowledge” bc it didn’t go towards a college degree and isn’t part of their job. Learning is never useless! Your brain is growing and developing throughout your whole life! People would never have epiphanies or sudden lightening strikes of creativity if they weren’t learning new things! That goes double for topics like science, politics, and history, which inform your understanding of the world you live in!

so i'm currently rereading Lolita and, in it, the word "crepitate" is used. i wasn't sure if it had multiple meanings, so i googled it.
now, i don't know about you, but when i type a word like "crepitate" into the search bar, i don't really expect "fart" to appear in any of the top results, and yet:
i was disappointed to learn that there isn't a classification system for farts, but, rather, you can buy a CD featuring a fart competition called The Original Crepitation Contest that Amazon reviewers assure me is comedy gold. okay. mystery solv--
hang on.
this also came up. Google is presenting it as fact.
Google is telling me that on May 16th, in the year of our lord 1972, a man farted for 1/3 of a second at a register of 194 dB.
according to the National Hearing Conservation Association, that is the loudest possible sustained sound. when a sound reaches that decibel, it no longer travels through the air, but moves it. it only comes from things like volcanic eruptions and can cause organ damage.
call me a Doubting Thomas if you must, but i just don't think this is true.
i just don't think anyone recorded a man farting so hard that it created a literal shockwave, blowing his asshole clean off and probably killing everyone around him, because i just don't think a guy did that, and i especially don't think that, if he did, his government name was Alvin Meshits.
at this point i'd totally forgotten i was trying to read literary classic Lolita by Vladimir Nabokov and instead started searching for the origin of Mr. Meshits, fart terrorist. from what i can tell, someone on Reddit just randomly shared it to r/todayilearned and Google went "yeah, this seems true" and now it's just out there.
now someone might stumble upon it and go "wow, that's crazy" and live the rest of their life believing a fart erupted at such force it likely blew its own progenitor to creamed corn.
i don't think Madeline, Texas is even a real place.

"When the house falls, the memories remain standing…"
— A message from Naser, from the heart of Gaza ✍️
Hello
I used to live in my grandfather’s house — a small home filled with my mother’s voice and my sister’s laughter.
But in one moment… everything disappeared.
A missile hit us, and in its cruel silence, it took away my mother and my sister.
I didn’t get to say goodbye… I just stood staring at the rubble, wondering if I was dreaming. 🕊️💔
Now I live with my younger siblings, trying to survive the aftermath. 🧱
But the truth is harsh: no flour, no bread, no sense of safety. 🍞🚫
We boil water and pretend it’s enough. We act strong for each other… but inside, we’re tired. 😔
Every night we sleep hoping to wake to a different morning…
But even the mornings are silent now. 🌅🕯️
All we have left is patience… and memories that refuse to fade. 🧠🫶


I’m not asking for pity… only that you read these words with your heart.
And if you feel moved to be a light in our darkness — even just a flicker
✅️Vetted by @gazavetters, my number verified on the list is ( #586 )✅️
Every prayer, every share, every kind word… brings light to a corner of our broken world. 💡✨
Thank you for reading.
Thank you for caring.
Thank you for being human. 🤍🌍

I just saw an unexpected post that I have to ask about.
Do people actually eat tofu, like, for real? It's not a bit, people can actually tolerate eating it?
