I won't keep you long. Here are the facts:
Siraj Abudayeh @siraj2024 is a Gazan journalist and a father of three.
He and his family have been displaced 7 times.
They have survived multiple recent massacres in Khan Yunis.
They live in a tent that feels like a "convection oven".
He can hear tank fire across the street.
His parents and siblings escaped Deir al-Balah and are now homeless; he has to care for them too.
He needs to raise $5,000 CAD / $3653 USD by the end of the day.
He's probably gotten a hundred thousand notes on his posts at this point.
This has been meaningless. His campaign moves at a glacial pace.
The Palestinian genocide is the fault of the US, UK, Israel, and the imperial core in general.
When we in the imperial core do not donate to people like him, we perpetuate the genocide.

🐉 for the ask game?
🐉 – If you could only create for one type of au, what would it be?
I haven’t actually written an actual AU but so far I’m thinking of a jidaigeki-ish AU based on this chibi set I did a while ago that references various historical events/legends/fictions in Japan:
Kai and Nya were separated when they were still kids due to a war and he then set on a journey to find her. He eventually finds her, alive and well, and at some point the siblings have a friendly rivalry. Both have developed their own fighting style as well while they were away from each other (parallel to Musashi’s Nitouryuu (dual sword) style and Kojirou’s Ganryuu style including Tsubame Gaeshi).
During this journey, Kai meets Lloyd who tells him that he needs to gather some comrades as soon as possible. After finding Nya, the siblings then joins Lloyd’s journey to find more comrades.
Cole the warrior monk used to rob people’s weapons (he prefers to call it confiscation) due to his disappointment to people abusing weapons to take someone else’s life; until when he met Jay and lost in a match. The latter reminded him that someone would need those to defend themselves (parallel to Benkei and 999 weapons).
Zane worked for a magistracy as a detective, along with PIXAL as his sidekick. He used to despise samurai for the terrible treatment they did to the commoners; until he witnesses the siblings saving a commoner’s life, and he slowly warms up to them. Legend says it that his throw is almost 100% accurate (parallel to Heiji’s coin throw).
I can’t explain the following ones properly but I might give a gist of them.
After everyone is finally gathered, Lloyd explains his reason: to end the war caused by someone who used to follow him and then deceived him: Pythor (parallel to Jiraiya’s arch-nemesis, Orochimaru, who used to be his follower IIRC). Apparently this war caused most of the problems witnessed by them.
Everyone immediately agree to join Lloyd for various reasons: the siblings don’t want anyone else’s happiness to be snatched by the war, Cole and Jay want the weapon abuse to be stopped for once and all, Zane and PIXAL want the difference between classes to be diminished. They didn’t get along at first, but they eventually become a better team thanks to Lloyd’s wise words (kind of referenced from events of Bakumatsu era after seeing dramas that take place in that time setting).
Thanks for the ask!
Hello,my name is Kholood Smeer, and I am reaching out to you with an urgent plea to help my family escape the horrors we are facing in Gaza. I am a 29-year-old physiotherapist, currently living in northern Gaza with my husband Khaled, a dedicated paramedic, our two-year-old daughter Amira, my mother, and my younger brother. I gave birth to a baby a week ago, and each day here is a fight for survival. Shortly after, our home was reduced to rubble in a bombing, and our lives were shattered. Now, we are left with nothing—no home, no security, and no way out on our own.
Plz if u can reed my story on my campaign
That we need to put first goal 5000
Inshallah we can achieve it quickly 🙏
https://gofund.me/a79b6ba1
One year gone
One year of killing civilians
One year of bombing hospitals
One year of bombing schools
One year of destroying a whole city
One year of starving people to death
One year of making people leave their homes to live in tents
One year and still the world just watching us dying
One year thousands are missing under the rubble thousands arrested with unknown future
One year of thousands of children lost either one of their parents or both
Thousands lost parts of their bodies
I can’t imagine this will continue for a year
Fuck this world fuck everyone
Y’all ever just think about how characters from atla would sound and be viewed as from a historical standpoint? Can you imagine how freaking hilarious yet interesting that would be?
Like imagine you’re reading a textbook and you get to the era of the 100 Year War and you read about notable figures from the dynasties between Firelord Sozin, to Azulon, and then to Ozai, only to see a photo in the textbook depicting the theatrical and hella dramatic armor Ozai wore when he attempted to burn down the Earth Kingdom?
Or the fact that King Bumi is probably known to be the most longest living and insane kings to ever rule in the world and the more you learn about this guy, the more crazier and out of pocket you can imagine him being?
How about the idea of how some of our beloved female characters being portrayed in history as being the most badass characters to exist—especially at a young age? Can you imagine what it would be like to read or watch a video on how Azula took over Ba Sing Sa? How Toph created metal bending? How Katara upstarted rebellions and movements in the name of justice and rights?
Yet can you imagine the idea of how some of these characters can be severely underrated and overlooked due to their lack of story? For instance, characters like Princess Yue, Jet, Hama—can you imagine how their stories would be told and framed? Yue being seen as a tragedy? Jet also being both a tragedy and a young war hero? Hama being seen as both a “bad guy” in history for hurting many, yet simultaneously sympathized for what she has gone through? Can y’all imagine that?
Can you also imagine how Zhao would be known as the biggest loser in Fire Nation history? So much so that chances are some schools in the FN may as well refuse to speak about him? That’s both sad and hilarious—
Who among us does not remember University Street, the alleys of halls, the park, the cafeteria, and the coffee sellers on the roads.
How can a person forget his home?! His comfort, after returning from university, was to enjoy a cup of coffee, his ritual for completing his tasks, and at the end of the week in front of the television watching a comedy movie.
The house and the road to it were beautiful. Life was lived with sincerity and warmth of moments. It was our happiness to return to our homes.
Happiness became a wish, and a loaf of bread became a miniature happiness.
I am writing to you in extreme pain. My house has been damaged, and I have lost my university laptop. I currently need an MSI laptop to complete my university studies, and its price is $2000 due to the war and the extremely high prices. I ask for a donation as soon as possible so that I can solve the final exams that begin at the end of the week.
