please dont stop talking about palestine . i do not trust israel and there has been multiple ceasefires theyve completely ignored . if we do happen to see iof soldiers leave and no longer occupy palestine , they would still need to rebuild . this includes medical aid and addressing airborne diseases , finding displaced families and reuniting them , etc ... their entire infrastructure needs to be rebuilt so please do not forget about palestine and do not let the US take credit for their liberation .

"In most cases, there is chronic diarrhoea, there is respiratory illness because malnutrition essentially causes weak immunity," [Ahmed Nasser] explains. "These symptoms appeared after five months of war and exacerbated over time." (source)

Malnutrition is associated with:

Severe complications for pregnant women & newborns

Higher risk of frequent illness and more severe illness in both children & adults, slow deaths complicated by dehydration (due to diarrhea) & muscle wasting

The combination of starvation, dehydration, & infection can be deadly to anyone, but the effects on children under 5 (especially newborns) is catastrophic.

None of these can be dealt with in Gaza right now: the healthcare system is on the edge of collapse. Lack of clean water, sanitation, and overcrowding is making the situation worse.

Samah is the doting mother to 3 children: two girls (aged 2 and 9), and a 6 month old baby boy, who was born in a field hospital in incredibly difficult circumstances. All he's known in his short life is scarcity & danger. Like his sisters, he's been fighting repeated respiratory infections and with winter here, Samah is terrified for them. The continued siege & destruction in Gaza has made basic essentials (i.e., baby formula & fresh food, clean water, diapers, warmer clothing) incredibly expensive. Samah & her family are totally reliant on donations just to survive, but they're still very low on funds. These basics are simple solutions to help the kids avoid getting sick, becoming severely malnourished, or having to deal with the complications of either.

So: please share & please donate !

Happy Birthday Kaito Kuroba !

to be honest there has never been a fictional character i’ve actually wanted to date. like. i want them to date each other. i don’t want myself as a person to be involved in this scenario whatsoever. what would i add to this narratively? what’s my thematic purpose in the narrative? immersion breaking. 

circling back around to the issue of writers being expected to do all their own goddamn marketing via social media these days, because it completely nixes the possibility of writers being weird shut ins, off-putting eccentrics, or misanthropes. 80% of the literary canon was written by weird shut ins, off-putting eccentrics, and misanthropes. if you weed out everyone who’s the wrong kind of insane to maintain a twitter presence, who on earth is left
