No in front of the kids Bill dam
⏰ 🚨 attention please🙏🚨
Dear friends and compassionate supporters,
This is Eman Zaqout, from Occupied Gaza, Palestine. I am a Biotechnologist ,🩸💉 and scientific researcher 👩🔬contacting you at a really desperate moment.
I am seeking your assistance to raise funds for saving our lives, facing the starvation in Gaza 👨👩👧👦 and help me achieve my doctoral degree dream after being awarded OWSD PhD Fellowship for inspirational women 👩🎓
Just like any motivated and loving life woman, and for years, I poured my heart and soul into my work at Al-Shifa Hospital and Turkish Palestinian Friendship Hospital👩⚕️, as Biotechnology Specialist serving cancer patients with compassion and skill💉🩹
As a result of my outstanding grades in my study and the excellent performance in my job, I have been a holder of different scholarship and I am active participant in many research visits and scientific missions💪
The last scholarship as at McGill University in Canada three months ago before the starting of the genocide in Gaza.😫
My life changed dramatically when Israeli military launched a sweeping war against Gaza. My home and our neighborhood in the North have been destroyed along with our belongings and precious memories early in this crisis😣💔
My job and my husband's job are gone. Israeli military forced us to evacuate from the north Gaza to the south where they claimed it would be the safe zone but it is not at all. Our sweet home and neighborhood have been destroyed 😥😭💔
Forced to flee with nothing but the clothes on our backs, today, we find ourselves sheltering in a displacement camp lacking access to sanitation, medical supplies, food and drinkable water. I will not talk a lot about the dire and unbearable life we have to go through, as no word can express it fairly 🥺😣
The good news in the midst of this tragedy, that I am one of the 22 women from the developing world who have been awarded OWSD- PhD fellowship to pursue my PhD study in Malaysia🍉💪. But now I am stuck in Gaza unable to achieve my dream because Israeli army has occupied and closed all the border crossings 😭💔
This genocide has been 10 months of hell and horror. We have reached a point where there is no hope left for us here in Gaza, where we are unfortunately just waiting for our turn to die 💔
Nevertheless,
I refuse to succumb to despair, holding on to the belief that brighter days lie ahead 🖤🤍💚💖
With your kindness and generosity🥺, I hope to survive the genocide and reclaim the path to achieving my doctorate 💉🩸
Please note that our campaign is vetted

I can see your William and Henry being the kind of friends who everyone wonders if they are or aren't together. Definitely have kissed while buzzed, maybe after opening day's success. William would be the more openly flirty of the two for sure. But it's like silly flirting, teasing, taking Henry's hand and swinging his arm like a child while walking into the pizzeria, kissing Henry on the cheek and calling him brilliant when there's a new design, stuff like that!
aww - yes absolutely 🥺 The day/week of the grand opening and William is genuinely happy that their restaurant is a success, and in the spur of the moment gives Henry a kiss on the cheek.
Definitely Henry being a bit more "professional" in public but is equally as silly/ poking fun at William when they're alone.
Id dare say willry too, given those little details on that Into the Pit new game
Poolverine, BillFord, what else? What a great year for the toxic old men yaoi community guys
breaking news triangle pussy leaves the smarest man on earth calling himself stranford and the dream demon he fucked cill bipher
-This is the first time that Pit Bonnie lowers his guard. When he picks up the picture, he actually looks quite calm and even FORGETS about chasing them. Even after he drops it, it takes him a few seconds to snap out of it and process what happened (bro is still only focused on holding onto that picture)
-Notice how it’s not the picture itself that makes him mad at first but it’s when Oswald’s dad hits him in the face and makes him drop the photo
-HIS EARS KINDA DROP SADLY WHEN HE REALIZES HE DOESNT HAVE THE PICTURE ANYMORE
-The fact that a picture of him and Henry is what brings you THE GOOD ENDING because it makes him bring back the memories of who he used to be (with Henry being a big part of it). Pit Bonnie still has William’s memories and so making him a form of Afton’s existence.
-That picture was only thing that was able to bring him back to reality until it was taken away from him (like how he had everything before) and that’s what made him lose it again
It is not lost on me that the people accusing shahed of being a scammer reacted like that with a screenshot of the post where i specifically talked about shahed as a photographer and what she had personally lost to the zionist occupation in gaza.
And while they are not the first to try and discredit Shahed, i have noticed so far that a lot of it has come from people who have “free palestine” in their bios and palestine flags in their headers- like it's an aesthetic rather than an actual movement towards decolonization we must commit ourselves to. Because the people making these accusations thoughtlessly don’t have to commit themselves to anything- no matter what happens, they’ll get to keep living their privileged lives unchallenged.
It seems to me that the user base from the imperial core is only comfortable talking about atrocities happening to people in gaza when they are faceless victims they personally do not have to know or interact with, but not when they are real people with rich internal lives- with families, friends, hopes and dreams, and as artists who deserve to be uplifted and seen.
They are unable to confront the personhood of the people who their empire is actively killing today, and the enormity of everything the victims have lost and it all reads like a violent reaction to their own discomfort with having to hear about it at all- the claws come out and suddenly everyone is a liar and a fraud who is out to steal the measly $5 they were never even forced to donate. "Eat the rich" website my ass you people cant even be trusted to not report and try to get accounts of people deleted when they are just asking for help.
I have known shahed for a month or so now and we talk on most days, when she is able to get a good internet connection. It has been spotty recently because of the incessant bombing, and because she got displaced after the massacres last week from where she and her family had been encamped at khan younis.
She has talked to me about her little sisters Rafif and Masa a lot. Rafif, thirteen years old, likes to read and write stories, winning prizes for it at a sector level, while Masa, who Shahed has described as a nine year old diamond, loves to draw.
They are both currently very ill with severe hepatitis from the unclean water in gaza.
Shahed told me that in the days before she and her family had gotten displaced, she had been recommended by the doctor who had been treating the kids to give them sweets, so that they can keep their strength up with the sugar.
So shahed decided to make them cake. With the scarcity of food and water in gaza right now, alongside the lack of basic amenities available in a kitchen, it had taken Shahed days of hunting to scrounge up all the ingredients she needed to make a cake. She often ran into dangers just trying to gather ingredients for them, as many areas in khan younis were turned into active combat zones. Oftentimes she escaped from death by just a hair.
Consulting her friend who is a chef, she was finally able to make it using a clay oven and give it to her sisters.
She has told me that despite how tired and sick she herself was, and all the dangers she had been through, it was all worth it when she saw her sisters’ faces light up when they got first taste of the cake she had painstakingly made for them.
This was around the same time she was able to collect the whole $40,000 USD for her sisters’ evacuation so that they can seek proper treatment for their illnesses in egypt.
It was also one day before they were forced to flee from their camp at khan younis due to the constant bombing by the IOF.
Both online and offline, Shahed has been fighting for her sisters’ safety at great cost to herself, despite all the obstacles in her path.
Right now, she has registered her sisters for evacuation at the hala agency for when the border opens so they can get to safety. But due to the lack of funds for it, she will not be able to join them when they leave and will have to stay behind with the rest of her family.
In her own words:
"This is my family and I will always fight for them. I know that when I am afraid, I will be able to survive if I know that they will be by my side. We will be together. I can't imagine an instant where we are apart.
I will be too lonely, and I will collapse without them. Who else will give me the motivation and strength to fight? they are everything, my family is like my soul. I can't imagine for a moment that we are not with each other.”
Her sisters are her strength, and without Shahed i can't imagine there will be people in Egypt who will fight for those little girls as fiercely as she does. The safety Masa and Rafif want to escape to CANNOT exist without Shahed, and she has told me how heartbroken they are too at the idea of being forced to leave Shahed and the rest of the family behind.
THEY ARE CURRENTLY ONLY AT 54.6k/80k
PLEASE SUPPORT SHAHED AND KEEP HER FAMILY FROM BEING TORN APART.
With regional tensions being escalated by the zionist occupation in gaza, we don't know when they might get a chance to evacuate again. The people who have been hellbent on discrediting palestinians and discouraging people from donating to them by targeting shahed recently have been beyond cruel, and we CANNOT allow them to hinder Shahed from saving herself and her family.
Her gfm has been verified and appears #224 on hussein and nairuz's list of vetted fundraisers.
We need to get them to this goal one way or the other but i can't do it on my own. So PLEASE repost her gofundme in your whatsapp groups, in your discord servers.
Share her story, repost her photography anywhere you have reach, share the link to the raffle being conducted for her @journalsforpalestine wherever you can this CANNOT WAIT.
Shahed needs these funds as soon as possible. Her entire family is at stake and we can't fail her now.
this sucks so bad i need to [remembers suicide jokes only worsen my mental health] put on the best talent show this towns ever seen
mad bill n billford
who gave me the Book of Freak by accident....
*walks out of the homoerotic friendship covered in blood and wounds* you should see the other guy
ok tbh I allllwayyyysss see people saying 'wahhh you can't ship billford because it's toxic" and like. yes Obviously bill and fords relationship is Not healthy in the slightest
can I be real?? fiddauthor is not that much healthy either and I barely see people complaining about it?
I mean comparatively I guess its more. Ethical. if you'd want to put it that way. but Ford was kinda horrible for Fidds? ignoring his anxiety, expecting him to be at his beck and call, lowk treating him like a pet... atleast that's the vibes I got from some parts of journal 3, doing things to purposefully distress him (ie disorganising his dice, which idk i knowww he saw as a harmless joke but if I was fidds that would have pissed me off and stressed me out SO BAD)
not to mention ford being the thing which caused him to lose himself entirely and become estranged from his family and so so mentally unstable?? i know like Ford was basicallyyy redeemed for all of this stuff and like. came to his senses. but that still doesn't undo all the long term psychological harm which Ford did to Fidds?
idk as much as I love Ford his actions towards Fidds and Stan do piss me off so bad, idc Stan was 100% in the right with their situation allat being said I still enjoy both fiddauthor and billford, I think they are very interesting dynamics, I just barely see people talking about this?
I have a question, and i mean this neutrally. When a gfm says it is “verified” and the verification is (as it often is) simply a blogger reblogging the post with no info, how are we meant to understand the gfm was verified? the handful of palestinian bloggers on here that verify gfm cant exactly spend so many hours for every campaign to make absolutely sure its legit. I mean they are human and most likely in troubled conditions themselves (or have family in difficulty). So we cant expect this vetting to be that thorough. How are we meant to know they didnt just rb the post without checking, or fall for the scam themself?
the palestinian and arabic speaking bloggers who have been verifying campaigns have been giving info on how they verify, mostly i think through messaging people in arabic and asking them stuff but i dont know for sure. i know that some arabic speaking bloggers on here have said that they dont want to post publicly in detail how they verify people because scammers will see and figure out how to look more legit. there also is a specific palestinian dialect of arabic that people who arent actually palestinian will most likely not speak.
please refer to things like the vetted fundraiser list or other fundraisers on @/el-shab-hussein @/nabulsi @/sar-soor blogs as i think those are some of the most authoritative bloggers on here for this. if something is verified by multiple people its likely its real.
i dont really know what else you want people to do. i understand your concern but your skepticism is just based on your belief that the people verifying this are too busy to really look into it. you also can look into peoples accounts yourself you know. reverse image search their photos, look up their name to see if they have other social media. a lot of people might have instagram or facebook but only recently made a tumblr. just use some critical thinking and information literacy for gods sake instead of immediately being suspicious of everyone to the point where you are accusing random people of being scammers just because they dont know how this site works. or on the opposite end, reblogging things like insulin paypal campaigns which are the most common scam on here. just think and use context clues pleaseeeeeeee. because accusing someone of being a scammer without evidence and spreading that information could actually have life or death outcome. i just dont answer asks that seem ambiguous and arent verified, i think thats better than potentially hurting a real person asking for donations by publicly calling them a scammer or reporting their blog
she needs unproblematic queer relationships with thoughtful communication and healthy attachment
no! unproblematic representation will kill the patient
she needs queerbait to live
another thing that international leftists just can't let go of irt venezuela is the notion that your associations alone define your movement. when like??? the pro-palestine movement is the clearest example that that's not true?? we all know nazis are opportunistic about palestine in particular and we do everything in our power to push them OUT so why is it suddenly an indiction that far right vultures are hanging out around people who are legitimately tired of the government in venezuela?? elon's tweet is full of bootlickers in the qrts but it's also full of venezuelans telling him to FUCK OFF. we are not a monolith!
the anti-maduro camp in these current wave of protests includes us allies AND literal communists who were jailed for their anti-gvt views so things are getting very muddy. there are anti-indigenous racists (bc of course there are. we're a settler state that bought into mestizaje) AND people shutting down that racism too. there's violence AND people trying to calm each other down. it's complicated but in discourse we can never be afforded complexity bc europeans and the us just see latin americans as perpetual victims OR '''uncivilized''' brutes with no inbetween, no matter how much they pretend otherwise lmfao
TO ALL THE PEOPLE WHO SUPPORT PALESTINE (AS YOU SHOULD) BUT THINK THAT MADURO ALSO SUPPORTS THEM AND THEREFORE THEY SHOULD SUPPORT HIM, PLEASE READ THIS!
(via: Danna Alquati @/magicaldemon on ig)
FREE VENEZUELA!
FREE PALESTINE!
FREE CONGO!
FREE CUBA!
FREE SUDAN!
FREE BANGLADESH!
If you have Spotify reblog this and tag what your number one song on your “on repeat” playlist is.
These days have been completely surreal, there are peaceful demonstrations throughout the country, last night they came out everywhere too, the monuments made by this dictatorship they are destroying them, they are throwing them away in all the states, the streets with Maduro's face are being burned, people are not stopping from going out into the streets.
You have no idea how significant this is for us, it has been almost 30 years of this dictatorship, years during which they established "heroes of the country" that they were only people from his party, they made statues of them as if they were solemn figures, this is BIG.
Y’all I genuinely urge you to stay up to date with world politics.
In my country, Venezuela, elections have just been held and the blatant disrespect that the so called government have for their people is astonishing.
How can they claim that Nicolas Maduro, one of the most hated dictators of our time, won 51%/5+ million votes?
How is it possible that he won when the voting panels have been updating every hour how Edmundo Gonzalez (the opposing candidate) has been winning by TRIPLE the vote?
How is it possible that most of the 7.3 million Venezuelan immigrants can’t vote and have no say in what goes on the country that gave them life?
How is it possible that Venezuelans have to fear for their life in voting stations because the military are set there to prevent them from voting?
How is it possible that the pig that’s called president is currently celebrating his “well-earned” victory?
Countries like Chile and Peru are already making statements that they will not recognize the results given by the CNE (the Venezuelan electoral system)
FREAKING ELON MUSK IS MAKING TWEETS REGARDING THE SITUATION
I think it’s sickening how all people can do is talk about it and not do a single thing about it, especially because as a society we try to condemn any harm to human rights just like how we did Russia, who by the way, is one of the dictatorships biggest supporters.
VENEZUELA HAS BEEN FACING AN HUMANITARIAN CRISIS!!!!
People have been facing literal hell since the late 90s and people in power DO. NOT. CARE.
Educate yourself, educate others, and most importantly TALK ABOUT IT, because I’m certain we’re not the first or the last country to go through this.
This is as much as I’ll say.
I hope they all rot in hell.

If all a corrupt politician has to do is say that "they are in favor of Palestine" to have the support of the people, then the people are stupid as fuck.
If you can't distinguish a lie from a sincere feeling, you need help.
Anyway, that fact that Maduro "won" again the elections is not something to celebreate, and im done with people, from USA mainly, saying they are happy just bc the man said "Free Palestine" a couple of days before the elections. And Im saying this as a pro palestine person. If you are from a english speaking country and you have no idea whats going on over here please shut up. We don't need uneducated opinions.
I hug my venezuela brothers and sisters in these hard times.
We're about to see things get real bad in Venezuela
This election was the most hopeful I've ever seen my people in my entire life as I was born under this regime and had never seen something quite like this
And it was stolen from us in such a disgraceful way, we have the evidence as the people were consistently there and tuned into the counting
They lost by almost 4 million votes at minimum and are claiming victory with a 2 million margin
The people are really mad and already on the streets, I watch from the distance as I sadly left a few years ago, but I keep hoping they won't get away with it this time
I wish I was here in 2020 to save my fellow freemance shippers, I would have fought alongside you on the frontlines my fellow soldiers. I do not know what happened but I've heard at least three people mention bad things happening and the ship getting dragged left and right.
I would have gotten down in those deep muddy trenches with you to fight to restore peace and order throughout the lands.

I ship Freemance because Alyx Vance is a well written interesting character and her affection for Gordon feels believable because SHE is believable as a person. You have to lay that foundation first. They have to be believable people for them to believably care about someone.
I can feel her affection for Gordon because I can feel her humanity as a person. She's not just some person with 7 whole lines of dialogue in the whole game and disappears after episode 1.
