Thanks For The Book Recommendation But I Am Actually Reading All Texts Chronologically And Geographically

a good way to inspire yourself to do more is to see yourself as the wacky sitcom B plot character in your friends lives, "wouldnt it be funny to tell the friends in my phone about it." has gotten me to do anything from going to a festival (excelent) to wild camping (it went badly) (coastguard called) to trying to get the train to stonehenge (stonehenge costs money so i ended up just getting lunch in sailsbury, it was okay.) i bought a bicycle today and 20% of my reasoning was "itd be funny to surprise my roommate by coming home with a whole bike." . life is for living. and baby i live for the bit.

tumblr just deleted a huge swathe of palestinians who were on here trying to fundraise. if you've been helping any of these fundraisers please take this time to 1) check in with palestinians you're in contact with 2) help them submit support requests if needed 3) keep these campaigns circulating while the beneficiaries are being silenced. these campaigns are life or death, this isn't just social networking. do not let these fundraisers languish.

Khaled Altaban (@khaled-eltaban) is a 24 year old from Gaza that has asked me to help share his fundraiser. (He has had a few different usernames since his blogs keep getting reported and deleted.)

Donate to Help Khaled evacuate Gaza and get a Master's Degree., organized by Khaled Altaban

My name is Khaled Altaban. I'm a 24 years old Palestinian from Ga… Khaled Altaban needs your support for Help Khaled evacuate Gaza and get

It has been months and he still has not reached his very modest goal of £10,000. (£3,691 / £10,000 raised as of October 18th)

He has been spoken to and vetted by @/90-ghost [here], he has shared photos of himself that turn up clean on reverse image search, he has shared videos of himself [here] that can only be found attached to his Gofundme. Despite all of this his campaign has had very little traction, and he has been accused of being a scam, (which you can see my response to here) further stagnating his campaign.

I don't know if people understand why so many families and individuals desperately need this money - it's because, besides even the cost of passports and border crossing, the cost of living has become exorbitantly high. Multiple Palestinians on here can attest that with little aid coming in to Gaza, necessities like food and water are both rare AND expensive. Not to mention e-sims. So every dollar is meaningful.

You have seen me reblog this fundraiser before, but I am making this post since my inbox is currently closed and fresh posts help boost campaigns! Thank you if you consider helping.

This is for the support of Gaza's Municipality Services - which help ensure clean drinking water, waste collection, debri removal and sanitation services - life saving services to run a state - reader I imagine wherever you are or how lacking the municipality services in your city is, it's not worse than Ghazza.

Currently it's only at 11% - please donate -

if the condition of the children of gaza doesn't move you, i don't know what will. there is no school this year. there was no school last year either. no clean water or healthy food. no medicines for when they hurt themselves. no toys to play with. no way for them to come out of this genocide unscathed. it's with a heavy heart that i've realized that childhood in gaza is an empty promise.

my friend alaa [ @alaakh998 ] lives in gaza. she has two little kids aged 4 and 6. i cannot help but think about them. how are they doing? what lies in their future? are they okay? I've come to the realization that they wont be safe unless they're able to evacuate from gaza.

the rafah crossing is closed as of now. alaa is fundraising in hopes that she can collect enough money to address her immediate needs and eventually evacuate when the crossing opens. she needs to buy a tent and medicine and supplies and food.

please donate to help her buy these things and ensure her children's well being.
