Ahmed and Dina's family, consisting of 4 very young children (the youngest, Ronza, less than a year old!) have returned home to north Gaza. I can't help but worry if he and his family will be alright, especially after hearing about the devastation they felt from what they found remaining of their home.
Ahmed tells me there is no internet in the northern Gaza Strip at the moment, so he will be unable to be online for a while; in the meantime, please help him to continue his fundraiser's progress! What a nice surprise to return to: to see that people haven't forgotten about you and continued to help in your absence!
Please consider donating to his family's fundraiser, so that they may be able to evacuate, rebuild, or do whatever else is necessary to begin to bounce back after this. They are so close to the goal, so please do whatever you can to help them reach the finish line!
2014 called, they know you're a rotten girl!!!!

Save our daughter !!!
Due to water and air pollution, my little daughter, Misk, has been exposed to meningitis. We went to the hospital today, and unfortunately there is no medicine, which exposes my daughter to extreme danger.
Please save our little daughter, donate and share

Genocide flattens every discussion. There are no new conversations to be had about the destruction, death and cruelty. After more than a year, there is nothing left to be said about various media houses, corporations and international bodies of law aiding and abetting all that has been happening in Gaza, either. It is the banality of evil, it is colonialism. However even in this atrociously banal circumstance, I do think what still is a continued point of hope for Gazans and what still pushes so many of them to reach out to the world, is the support people around the globe have shown and still continue to show. Which is why I am here on behalf of the Shehab family ( @fahedshehab-new ) and requesting you to help them survive through this winter. This won't take much of your time so please read:
Fahed is currently supporting 13 family members in total- his own family and that of his sister’s.
He has to look after 8 children now, with the youngest being his son Yayha who is barely having anything to eat because the price of baby milk is exorbitantly high in Gaza.
The genocide has taken a toll on Fahed’s daughters. Sahar and Dana spent a whole year under the threat of bombs and right now instead of getting to be teenagers, they ask their father if they will survive. They have even said they don't want to live if they lose someone.
The family right now immediately needs clothes to keep them warm throughout winter. Fahed’s family is from the north and has been displaced several times before they came south. Displacement is dangerous and a silent killer because often essential items are lost and cannot be replaced in time.
Please consider that the weather has already turned colder around the world and that which is only mildly uncomfortable to us, presents a dire situation for Gazans. The families don't have a shelter and there is no way for tents to adequately protect from cold winds and rain. So right now the immediate need is for warm clothes and it can cost upto $400 per person. With THIRTEEN PEOPLE to take care of Fahed immediately needs to raise at least 5k to buy the required apparels. So please boost and donate.

Please remember that every donation, even if it is 5 dollars, is a ray of hope for the families who have lost everything.
Tagging for reach 🙏🏽

Hello dear .. Please do not ignore our suffering
My name is Salman Helles from the afflicted and massively destroyed Gaza Strip..
My family consists of many children, women and elderly people and we are suffering from horrific tragic conditions .. Our house was bombed in the northern Gaza Strip and we were displaced to the southern Gaza Strip to Deir al-Balah and the family was scattered in tents and shelters in Deir al-Balah .. The conditions are extremely tragic where children suffer from the spread of diseases among them and the elderly and women in my family suffer from miserable conditions ..
There is no water, food or electricity in the Gaza Strip and the treatment is getting worse day after day ..
For more than 330 days we have been oppressed and wronged in the Gaza Strip and we are exposed to violent barbaric bombing ..
We would never ask for help and donations but the miserable conditions in the Gaza Strip forced us to do so ..
I appeal to the owners of human consciences and free people in this world to provide us with help ..
Your help, no matter how small, means a lot to us because it contributes to saving us and alleviating our suffering ..
Please donate to us or share my campaign On your blog and for your friends
I assure you that my campaign is completely legitimate

This has been a PSA from ur older brother. Rock on.
An alarming discovery from University of Guelph researchers raises concerns for bumblebee health, survival and reproduction. U of G environmental sciences researchers Drs. Nigel Raine and Sabrina Rondeau have found that bumblebee queens are more likely to hibernate in soil contaminated with pesticides than in clean soil—for reasons they still don't quite understand. "Some bee behaviors are not well understood, and we wanted to see if these bumblebee queens exhibited avoidance behavior that might reduce their risk of harm from pesticide exposure in the field," Raine says. "But these results were alarming."

Old people when they when
Woah
I've just started college and I'm taking a module on bees and beekeeping (for funsies) and even though I have done my own research of them in the past, it still blows my mind how cool they are, despite being so integrated into the public's eye. Anyway, this lovely lady was thirsty. Sipping from a puddle on a leaf. :)

EDIT: MODULE, not course. So like, that along with other subjects. I was a bit tired writing that.

Did you know ...
Did you know, those little bees you see in the evening sitting on flowers are old bees.
Old & sick bees don't return to the hive at the end of their day.
They spend the night on flowers, and if they have the chance to see another sunrise, they resume their activity by bringing pollen or nectar to the colony.
They do this sensing that the end is near.
No bee waits to die in the hive so as not to burden the others.
So, next time you see an old little bee sat upon a flower as the night closes in...
... Thank the little bee for her life long service.

For those who don't know me, I will tell you my story
This is me Farah, I am 18 years old and I live in the Gaza Strip
Before the war, I lived in our house in the northern Gaza Strip and studied to get a good grade and study medicine abroad
(our home before)
But the war came, education stopped, and we had to evacuate our house after the occupation bombed our neighborhood with fire belts on November 13, 2023.
(our street before& after)
We were displaced on the Salah al-Din Road through the safe corridor. We saw nightmarish scenes there: corpses on the road, body parts, the body of a pregnant woman, bombed cars with body parts inside, and the soldier almost ran over my sister, but we survived. We walked for about 5 hours under the sun while I was on my period. I carry heavy bags
We lived in a tent in Rafah and our tent was burned in a nearby bombing
My father was arrested during the events in Khan Yunis and they tortured him severely
(Traces of torture on my father's body)
Now we are displaced in Deir al-Balah and live in a tent
(our tent)
Our house in the north was bombed on 7/23/2024
(Our house after the bombing )
We are now without any shelter
