Blooranje - Wednesday's Child Is Full Of Woah~

characters who suffer the most tragic fates not because they were destined to die but because they were doomed to survive

Farah received a severe head injury after her home was bombed by the occupation last year. It resulted in a fractured skull and brain bleeding, which left her disabled for several months. To continue the treatment of her wound, she needs to evacuate outside of Gaza. However, this is very expensive, and her family is large. They cannot work due to the invasion, and have no way of raising the funds to pay evacuation costs, or to support themselves until evacuation is possible.

Farah’s family has started a GFM campaign, but progress is very slow. Total donations up to now equal less than 1% of their goal, despite being open since April! They will not be able to evacuate, or to survive in the mean time, without your help.

Please share Farah’s campaign by copy-pasting this link across all your social media pages. Reblogging this post and the posts on Farah’s blog @farahyounis is also a huge help.

Please help Farah and her family survive and evacuate to safety!

Thank you❤️

"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 !

list of palestinian fundraisers (part 1)

(part 2)

during the past several days, i have received a mass influx of asks and messages from vetted palestinians seeking my support for their campaigns. up until now, i have been answering these people on an individual basis, but i no longer find that very practical given how many there are, so i'm going to try to create masterlists like this one instead. it's something i had been considering doing for a while now, since i find that lists tend to get more engagement, not to mention that it's recently become clear that a good handful of people on here baselessly equate asks with scams, so maybe this will help.

if you see this post, please consider not just reblogging. the point of lists like these is to spotlight various fundraisers and get people to support them monetarily. please, try picking out one of two of these and consider contributing! every little bit helps!

When sorrow and difficulties strike hard, hope becomes the lone star in the dark sky. This is the story of Amira, a 23-year-old girl who found herself bearing the burden of her family after her father's death three years ago due to the coronavirus.

When sorrow and difficulties strike hard, hope becomes the lo… Abdallah Alanqar needs your support for Amira's Story: Between Hope and Resil

After my father's passing, I found myself taking care of my family, consisting of my mother, sister Noor, and brother Abdulrahman. My mother, suffering from high blood pressure and diabetes, faces health problems that further complicate their situation. But courage and determination drive Amira forward.

I worked as a teaching assistant at the university while pursuing a master's degree in data science, and also worked as a programmer in a company. My life was going smoothly until war came and destroyed everything.

My university, workplace, and home were completely destroyed, forcing them to flee south in search of a safe haven. Now, I and my family live in tents for displaced people in Deir al-Balah, where they suffer from water shortages and the spread of diseases, posing an additional challenge, especially for my immunocompromised mother.

This is a brief about our daily suffering.

Please help me, my mother, my sister and my brother to go out to treat my mother because she suffers from widespread diseases because her immunity is weak and help us to complete our educational journey, me and my brother

Hayao Miyazaki on AI

EDIT: I took this from Bluesky without checking the full context (didn’t really think I needed to because it seemed like something Miyazaki would say. Still I should have) since then it has come to my attention that he was specifically talking about ableism here and not directly about AI.

I’m attaching the whole excerpt here:

💔‼️These may be my last words💔‼️

The genocide has been going on for a year, my little girl Alma was born, sat, stood, walked and got her teeth while the war was raging fiercely, my baby did not enjoy a life like other children, she miraculously escaped death after we lost 11 members of the family, what sin did my little girl commit to live this genocide in an inhumane environment with sand, insects and pollutants,

I address your humanity, 💔❤️‍🩹🙏🙏

please donate to save the lives of my two little girls.🙏🇵🇸🍉
