!! DONT SKIP !! donations urgently needed
They are only at €5,561 out of €50,000 goal

I was contacted by Nader to draw pictures for and help spread his brother Abdulsalam Al-Anqar’s fundraiser to save their family. Nader is a 17 year old boy who lives in Gaza with his family: parents Ahmed (54) and mother Iman (49), brothers Abdulsalam (26), Mohammed (14), and Omar (21) and Abdulsalam’s wife and their one year old daughter Iman. Imagine it was your sibling, your friend, your son, who should be in school or with his friends, who instead has to hide from bombs and ask for help online to save his family. His family have suffered through one year of genocide. All of you are their hope to get to safety.

This fundraiser is vetted by @gazavetters, number four on the spreadsheet here

Abdulsalams daughter Iman is only one year old and has lived most her life in a war zone. She is suffering from malnutrition. It’s every fathers worst nightmare to see their child starve and not be able to feed her. Please help him feed his daughter and get her to safety. No child should grow up hearing the sound of bombs. Every child has the right to food and safety. You can help give Iman the childhood she should have, where she can sleep in a safe bed at night with a full stomach.

Their father Ahmed has cancer and needs surgery and medication. It is not possible to get the treatment he needs in Gaza. every day his illness is left untreated, the cancer will continue to spread through his body, so he very urgently needs money for treatment and travel. If you help them get to their goal, you are saving their fathers life. Don’t let this family who have already lost so much lose their father, husband, and grandfather

Nader has showed me pictures of this explosion close to them, thankfully they were able to get away. Every day they stay in Gaza their lives are at risk from israeli bombs. Every day and hour counts. I know there are compassionate and kind people who are willing to help. every euro helps, YOUR donation will bring them one moment closer to safety. With love and hope I’m asking you to give what you can, I believe in the kind people of the world and I beg you to not let them die. If you can’t donate, please share so it may reach people who can.

Never forget that palestinians are not numbers on a list of deaths. Please think of each of them, think of their names and faces and know that you can help them. I think of them every day. I think of the hopes and dreams they should achieve, I think of their education, their future, and the love they show when they work hard every day to get help. You may feel powerless to stop this genocide, but you have the power to save Abdulsalam and his family.
I dream that the day will come soon where they may use their days to rest and recover from what they’ve been through, where they can share a meal and laugh and the children will play, instead of having to use their time to beg the world to listen and help them. We can make this possible.

50 000 euros is a lot of money for one person to give, but for all of us together, it can be done. Please don’t look away.

I’ve been in contact with Nader for a bit now. This family is in deep need of our help and Nader himself has spent every single day tirelessly campaigning in order to save his family. Please, if you have anything to spare, donate to them, and if not, share this post. 🙏🏻

No one should have to campaign this hard for themselves and their loved ones to not be killed by a genocidal settler ethnostate, let alone a 17 years old boy.

Tagging for reach.

I’m feeling so ugly and downtrodden seeing countries that claim to be anti-genocide and pro-Palestine immediately pivot to humanitarianism to save face and appease their pro-Palestine publics after the false ceasefire announcement—talking about setting up orphanages (wtf) and sending aid—instead of holding Israel accountable by ensuring that the aid actually enters Gaza, actually cutting business ties with Israel, and actually prosecuting IOF veterans. Everyone continues to lie.

it’s crazy how plausible all the shit the corporations do in the murderbot diaries is. that one scene when murderbot was talking to those humans who had signed a 20 year corporate work contract and it asked them if the contract specified 20 years by the standard local calendar or by a proprietary calendar created by the company was downright unsettling 😬 if the ceos of modern earth companies read these books they would probably start crying because the government won’t let them do most of this in real life.

hey fun fact this has absolutely happened before. part of the push to standardize time/timezones was because factory employers had clocks set to the pace of their machinery. meaning of the workers were not doing enough, time would run slower until they had reached their goal. there is historical precedent.

the leftism leaving people’s bodies when you tell them fat people are human and actually it’s fucked up to say that your worst nightmare is to look like us

the leftism leaving people’s bodies when you say that it’s fine if fat people are also unhealthy. yes you can absolutely be extremely fit and healthy while being fat but it’s also literally fine if that fat person is unhealthy

take a shot every time an american liberal uses the turn of phrase “not perfect” to refer to a political candidate’s explicit intent to enable more mass death of foreigners and immigrants.

and queer people

the interesting thing here is that in the context this post was made, it was expressing frustration at primarily queer liberals for using democratic candidates’ token support for queer issues as a reason why those same candidates’ open willingness to dehumanize and kill brown people both within and beyond the united states’ borders shouldn’t discourage progressive voters from supporting their campaigns. not to say that queer people (and most specifically in recent years, trans women) don’t get left behind in pursuit of some sort of ‘lesser evil’, but i think the tendency to redirect discussions of other minority groups being harmed back towards queer issues is a big part of the unthinking homonationalism that’s prevalent on tumblr and probably an instinct that’s worth trying to curb.

the thing about white people is they do not understand black erasure as being an act of racism and will try and explain to you what modern associations are instead of asking themselves why black culture is erased.

i have had this discussion repeatedly surrounding ska, a genre that originated from jamaica, where white people will keep telling me that “it’s associated with white people now therefore it’s ok to see it as a white genre” without ever examining why blackness was erased from ska.

The eco fash and eugenicist leftists (yes, whether you admit it or not, you exist) aren’t going to like this but I rank the invention of plastic as one of the top 5 best inventions to ever happen to medicine, along with soap, insulin, vaccines, and rehydration salt fluids

Absolutely! People who want to eliminate plastic production in its entirety ignore how it is used in *countless* ways medically. You know how surgical instruments stay sterile? Plastic packaging to keep them that way. How subdermal implants can be lightweight and comfortable as the body moves (to the point of being unnoticeable) and still disperse the medication for even years before needing to be changed out? Plastic bodies! Do you know what many modern stitches are? Plastic! Bc it has the ability to be fully sterilized and stretchable enough to move without snapping or tearing the skin while keeping the wound closed and in a position to heal.

If you wanna go after plastic: go after the consumer culture that puts ridiculous amounts of kids toys in dumps and clothes made by fast fashion. But this is a strong case of the ironic “all generalizations are bad” truism. I am all for reducing plastic waste and it’s damage on the environment, but don’t even *look* at the medical industry, let alone blame it until youve “solved” about ten other industries, cos this one improves and saves lives.

I’m on record as a plastic-hater but ALWAYS with the caveat that it’s important for medicine

really I think it’s gone way too far in all other areas like clothing, but obviously medicine is a whole other ballpark (hell, even in my own life- I wear contact lenses, which were theorized before the invention of plastics but never practical, and my glasses would have broken so many times over the years if the lenses were still actual glass)

someday hopefully medical plastic will be made from not-oil, but please understand that my criticism of plastic NEVER includes the medical field

yet another periodic reminder that the problem is capitalism

A somewhat hot take of mine is that Coolio’s reaction to Weird Al taking his song about the harsh existence of being a black person in Amerikkkas ghettos and making it into a silly tune was 100% the correct reaction to have. Especially considering when he died his legacy has been a) haha Amish Paradise and b) haha funny dramatic meme song.

Bro made 2 classic albums about black struggle and he’s never really gotten flowers because his career was made into a mockery.
