PALESTINIAN FAMILY FORCED TO RESTART FUNDRAISING - PLEASE DONATE!

PROGRESS: £520 / £35,000

a little while ago, I was contacted by Amal Abushaban, a Palestinian mother of 5, for help regarding her Gofundme campaign.

In summary, after spending months raising over $13,000 for her family, she attempted to withdraw the money. She did everything right, she answered Gofundme's questions, she provided the details of her beneficiary and she contacted their support team - only to be left in the dark until an email came one day, notifying her that her campaign had been closed and all donations were now in the process of being refunded.

I tried kicking up a major fuss about it online, as well as trying to pester Gofundme Support on my own account, but all it did was send me in circles as I desperately pleaded for the Gofundme Support person I was assigned to at least re-instate the damn fund. Even worse, Amal got her first email today about refunds going through.

Regrettably, Amal is being forced to start over completely in her fundraising efforts. Her beneficiary has started this Paypal fund for her. Please donate and share!

PROGRESS: £520 / £35,000

#with my whole chest. fuck gofundme #the way that their support page has a pre-made response encouraging people to donate to ukraine #while theyre actively sabotaging palestinian gofundmes and intentionally cancelling them or holding up funds for banal reasons #fuck you to fucking hell #the hypocrisy is astounding #or do a genocided people only deserve support when theyre white #the way that i know for a fact this has happened MULTIPLE TIMES BEFORE #fuck gofundme and their zionist bullshit asses #sucking up to genocidal entity of the US. fucking cowards.#the one place where palestinians might gain a semblance of hope for escape and even they fail them.#please donate to amal. i really can't imagine this kind of desperation #the worst part of it is that there isnt even a workable alternative #they know they hold all the power here and they use it to be unimaginably cruel #palestine #free palestine #free gaza #donations #free west bank #fundraiser

348 days of annihilation war

348 days of displacement, destruction, and death haunt us every day. We do not know whether we will survive or die. We engage in a struggle every day to provide the minimum necessities of life. Every morning, we face difficulty in providing water and wood to cook food. If food is available, I ask your mercy for help and a donation. In order to save my family, to escape death and the epilepsy of life 🙏🏻🥺

Before the war we had a beautiful life 🥺💔

I hope everyone will donate and participate. 🙏🏻🙏🏻

‼️ EMERGENCY FUND ‼️

Howdy Y'all, please share my story with me at least a little, I am a Type 1 Diabetic. I was diagnosed in February 2019 after being very sick and I weighed 88 lbs. For the last two and a half years I have had to inject insulin 4+ times for day every day, to stay within my blood glucose level.

In December 2020 I was hospitalized and had to have emergency surgery where I had to stay at home for the entire period of my illness without working, and I also had DKA aka Diabetic ketoacidosis is a serious complication of diabetes that occurs when your body produces high levels of blood acids called ketones.

Diabetic ketoacidosis develops when your body cannot produce enough insulin. Insulin normally plays an important role in helping sugar (glucose), the main source of energy for your muscles and other tissues, enter your cells. Without enough insulin, your body begins to break down fat as an alternative fuel. This process produces a buildup of toxic acids in the bloodstream called ketones, eventually leading to diabetic ketoacidosis if left untreated.

Three months later in March 2021 I finally got to see an endocrinologist, who specializes in Type 1 Diabetes. Who told me that an insulin pump would be a good device for me?

I was recently approved for an insulin pump that will help me better control my diabetes. Although I am happy that I am approved the hardest part is coming up with the funds to pay for the pump and equipment.

📎Support and donate here

👉 GOAL: $5/$340

A donation of any amount will be greatly appreciated even if you can't donate but if you share the story against friends It will help. Thanks to anyone and everyone who is willing to help.

"but hamas is getting funded by extremist islamic hate groups!" do you think the U.S. government and military giving funding for israeli's war efforts against palestinians is a morally neutral and inherently righteous body that had no influence in the politics of southwest asia as a global colonial superpower. do you really think anything you can say about the people resisting oppression can't be said about the oppressors.

#brieuc.txt #palestine #this isnt me justifying it but it is me pointing out the double standard how hamas' funding is antithetical to the freedom movement #but the u.s.' influence and financial support is completely fine and doesnt need to be brought up at all #''hamas doesnt have the best interests of palestinian people'' may be true but the alternative is not allowing an apartheid state to exist #also its a ridiculous thing to say because thats a common thing in most countries #neo-nazi groups r a major problem in the Ukraine military but nobody questions ukraine's right for freedom.#the double standards keep on piling up #im not saying you cant criticise these groups but is it criticism or is it propaganda #are you talking abt how war radicalises and changes n traumatises people or are you implying every palestinian is a dirty terrorist #etc #and do you understand that in an active war zone n worlds largest open air prison violence is guaranteed and is brutal.#or do you think that if the people with no electricity and water just Werent So Stubborn And Talked everything would be okay?#and do you consider white people fighting for freedom martyrs but brown people doing the same terrorists

im so glad that we never get a clear picture of sophie’s background in leverage & i hope we never do. however i also really like making up various, often conflicting backstories for her in my head. perhaps they’re all backstories for an alias of hers, ones she laid to rest back in season two.

#leverageposting #leverage #sophie devereaux #particularly that one of or both her parents had to move around a lot for work & so she would change herself to fit in at every new school #or new town etc etc. and that whatever original identity she had was dropped due to some kind of really awful event and her bio family think #she’s dead. eg she got into some kind of extreme legal trouble for the first time & she faked her death & everyone she knew as a kid thinks #she’s dead too. like. astrid wasn’t the first person she left to miss/mourn her.#but also that she was a teen runaway at like age ~16 and pretended to be an adult (like. 18/19) cause theres not much you can do by yourself #as a minor like booking flights or renting an apartment. and so began her first proper alias. and she was a pickpocket until she could fund #her life fully through grifting & cons.#or alternatively her parents died when she was a teen & she was old enough to become an emancipated minor (everyone in lev is an orphan)#and she kind of just fell into crime from there bc she had no one #or perhaps she got married at 17 and realised how fucked it all was and stashed money until she could run away & leave it all behind. that’s #bc of a single vague sentence on john rogers’ blog saying she was married at 17 and in context it was quite possibly a joke or random #hypothetical example but i was like what if???? What If???????#i also like the hc that she’s trans which i’ve seen a few times #in some versions in my mind her parents were okay and in some versions they were awful and in some versions it was so complicated.#i think tara has heard one story and parker or hardison have heard another and nate has never heard any story. he’s never asked.#she is here now and that’s all that needs knowing. and sophie devereaux is her real name in any way it matters.#eliot has also never asked and she asked if he was curious once and he just asked if she was curious about What He Did and that was answer #enough for the both of them. just a mutual agreement not to ask and it actually solidified their bond.#i think she struggled for a long time about whether to tell her new family The Real Story but in much the same way we never hear her birth #name bc it’s not Her anymore… she never gives The Real Story. bc it no longer defines who she is. she’s so much more than whatever happened.#lvg

Playing Dustborn is like looking into the mind of a liberal psychopath

Surely there's no way an ability like Normalize,Bully And Cancel could be used to indulge in the most depraved shit imaginable,RIGHT?. I mean what am I saying,of course not, Pax Is only ever shown to be a paragon of restraint and virtue:

Manipulating the police into Shooting each other is certainly a thing heroic and virtuous people do.

Anytime I replay DAI and I get to that first conversation with Vivienne back at Haven, I take a long inhale Everytime she asks what I think about doing with the mages.

Like I know my Inky has not thought about this too much. She just knows her clan, but I think about it constantly and no answer I am offered is good enough to assuage my long rant that I yell at the computer for like 8 straight minutes before I choose the Mages Should Be Free line and get the inevitable Vivienne Greatly Disapproves

I love Vivienne a lot, I do, even with the differing political views, but Jesus Christ girlie pop never ask me that question again because I will go off Every Single Time

#dragon age #dragon age inquisition #dai #vivienne de fer #vivienne dragon age #madame de fer #the rant includes major reformation of the circle #the templar order #and the chantry #at the very least for the circles to stay a thing #because i do think they could stay a thing if we just changed like 80%-90% of it #maybe smaller and more numerous circles that just act as boarding schools #kids can go home and actually see their parents #no more tranquils as the funding for the circle #fereldans are gonna have to pay tax dollars if they really think circles are the best way to go about mages #studies to see how long a templar can go without lyrium while still effectively using their abilities and not going through withdrawal #bc im pretty sure that the chantry makes it seem like Templars need a lot more lyrium than they actually do #so they can keep a leash on them #also maybe find alternatives to lyrium for templars #cuz i really fucking hate the idea of them having to take an addictive drug #im ranting in the tags i need to stop #and this is all just to keep the circles a thing btw #the easier solution of course being having mages be free

THINGS WE SHOULD BRING BACK:

that thing where rich people would adopt pet artists and pay for them to just sort of hang out and be the weirdest goddamn person alive in their guest room

being sent to the seaside for your health

guillotine

#would someone please please please send me to the seaside for my health #alternatively please is there any wayward and eccentric millionaire following me that wants to fund my life style as the artist they just #think is sort of neat

I bit the bullet and I bought another batch of material for my larp costume, including the damn buckles...

Why pretty buckles are so expensive?

I still need a fair bit more but at least now have no excuse to not start working on this thing.

The plan is great. Let's see about the execution

I still need to figure out how to clone the caftan below ^^'

#larp #costume making #I would normally order the caftan from the seamstress that maded this one #but one - I wanna try to sew something a bit more complicated #two I wanna alternate the design #three I might be out of extra funds shortly and sewing mysels is cheaper

#in today's drama: the norwegian cycling federation is so broke they can't afford to send a team to euros #so they've cut a deal with uno-x to fund the national team at that race #great right?#except the roster that came out a few days ago is ENTIRELY uno-x riders and the ds will seemingly also be from uno-x #and the thing is uno-x has been super open about doing this bc they want the uci points for their wt bid next year #and the alternative is seemingly that norway just doesn't send a team which is obviously not great #but um. a few conflict of interest bells are ringing here. just a few.#and like euros this year will probably be a sprint so kristoff is their best option anyway #but imagine being hagenes or foss and getting selected (though they weren't) for euros to represent your country #only to find out that you're basically riding for a trade team disguising itself as a national team

wild how some people's response to school shootings is always to put MORE guns in schools

#personcole #lets say in some fucked up alternate universe it would work (more guns is never the solution and it indroduces a fuck load of new problems)#the public education system in america is wildly under funded #where the fuck is this money to arm every teacher and have them undergo training on how to use it going to come from?#certainly not the people saying arm teachers bc they bitch and moan about how much they despise contributing to the society they live in

#I just think that if canine distemper affects werewolves so should other things.#anyway here’s my alternate pitch for season 6: Gerard comes back as principal of beacon hills to stop those teen wolves from graduating #meanwhile the nemeton is also doing evil magic stump things to stop them from leaving #principal grandpa Gerard then cuts the lacrosse team funding even though they want to make it to state #when they hold a bake sale to make up for the loss Gerard holds a counter bake sale #eventually the teens find a sponsor (Derek Hale’s insurance payout/family inheritance)#teen wolf #scott mccall #gerard argent #derek hale #my art

Are there any fun coloured vests with pockets for the tools of dog training (12lbs of snacks)?

Multi-coloured cargo/utility vests that maybe hurt your vision?

#cargo vests are such a serious category of clothing #people are too serious about fishing and dog training (and whatever else people use cargo vests for)#I found a very fun reflective one #for twelve million dollars #I am plagued with such niche project ideas and have to squint at the funds #(I would like to sew a bright multi-coloured utility vest)#(I would also like to paint fish)#the alternative is to go full fishing bro for dog trials (I don't fish)#get a fishing hat #embroider fish on my camp chair #embrace the khaki #fishing related bumper stickers
