Dear Humanity,
Please read this as if I'm a member of your family. maybe your brother, son or a friend and as if my family who's under death now is yours.
My name is Abedallah, a fresh graduate who wants to be a doctor like his role model, his father.
A student who was supposed to start his university and achieve the dreams he worked for but found himself losing the city he's living in, his house and losing any hope of a better future with it.
And after a alot of studying in Tawjihi ( The final level at high school before joining university), the war had another plan.
The story started since childhood, when every one I have knowen called me doctor.
This continued till I reach to the final grade at my school grade 12 (Tawjihi).
In this time, I felt that everything should be real, I can do it, I started to study
and work hard from begining to end, no sleep, no rest, all these things to achieve my goal and make my dream a real one.
The hard year has finished, then two week of fear waiting.
After this, the result came, it’s 99.4, I ranked the third in my country.
Since the war on Gaza strip started, we struggled alot, when we were at home at the beginning of the war the Israeli occupation bombed many houses around us, then we were displaced to Rafah because of fear and at the first day suddenly we heard the sound of many blasts,cracking glass and screaming women and children, they blew up a residential square near us.
After two months, I returned to khanyonis, but not to our home.
I live in tent becuse the israeli occupation burned my house completely, nothing left.
I feel that I lost and continue to lose every thing, this war made my dreams, hopes, my beloved things and my beautiful house burned and disappeared.
The single wish for me at this time is waking up from this nightmare and everything goes back to what it was.
Today I've finished transferring all of my paper notes from Chapter 1 of Principles of Anatomy and Physiology to Notion, and I've started working on an Anki deck for this textbook.
So far I've covered and made flashcards for the basics, the structures and functions of every body system, and the basic life processes and what they mean.
I'm not sure whether I want to keep going with making cards for this this deck today or switch over to language learning (Romanian), but if I do anything else on this topic it'll just be making more flashcards.
The link to the deck will go public in 24 hours, so I'll post it then for anyone interested :)
i think a lot of liberals need to confront the fact that they don’t actually believe everyone should have basic human rights. a homeless person could call me every slur under the sun and i would still want them to have housing, food, etc. the belief that everyone is entitled to basic human rights should not hinge on whether you “like” someone or not. at that point the entire ideology crumbles.
Everyone say thank you american indigenous people for cultivating corn, potatoes, peppers, tomatoes, cacao, pumpkin, squash, and anything i missed. Makes life more meaningful globally

Warning: Long post under the cut.
Hii, I just wanted to share some things I do to make studying less boring having ADHD :)
Coloring task list
In a picture frame, I put some drawings of potion bottles underneath the glass, and as I go doing my tasks, I color the potion bottle with a white board marker, as if I was filling the bottle, until it gets full, this method motivates me to keep going, to see the drawing fully colored, besides, it's a good way to visualize your progress.
Cloze
My to go study method is cloze, basically I blur out the keywords of my text (I part it in questions or topics, but you can do as you please), then, I open the notes app and try to ''fill the blanks'' and complete the words that are missing, that not only is a good way to memorize, but also is a good way of answering questions without draining all your energy while doing so.
Breaks
I hate pomodoro, i usually just take a bunch of tasks, and part them in groups, by doing that, when I complete a bunch of quests, I can take a break with an appropriate time for the tasks I just did.
Water and posture reminders
I like to have reminders to fix my posture and drink some water, but notifications are just not annoying enough, so I make an alarm, an actual alarm that will show up in the middle of the screen and interrupt me so I can actually drink water before turning it off
Well those are the tips I got, I hope it helps you as much as they help me! :D
friendly reminder for the new twitter refugees:
change your icon/pfp and put something coherent in your blog description or you're going to get blocked bcs people think you're a bot
this site is built around reblogs, so please actually reblog posts(especially art and fics!!)
you can set your likes and follows to private
checkmarks here are a meme and mean nothing
follower counts are private and we like it that way, so get used to not judging people by that metric
drama and discourse is boring, use your blacklist and block button liberally
DON'T CENSOR YOURSELF!! we can swear and say kill and make fun of corporations all we want, and if you tiktok-ify your tags people who have things blacklisted for whatever reason will still see them, and people who want to see that content won't be able to find it!! spell words out normally, you won't get in trouble!!
tumblr live is sketchy as hell and full of fake accounts, if you decide to use it anyway may god have mercy on your soul o7
be nice to the reddit refugees, they're our friends <3
