You can donate to the Palestine Children's Relief Fund for as little as $1.00.

There is a fee you can choose to apply to cover processing.

Which if you choose to do leaves you with a total of ~$1.35 (USD) depending on the type of card you have.

PCRF has a score of 97% on Charity Navigator.

The Gaza Strip is one of two places in the entire world that is categorized as Phase 5 (the highest phase) on the Integrated Food Security Phase Classification scale.

So even if you think it isn't enough, remember that donating even as little as $1.35 helps! It's $1.35 they wouldn't have had otherwise. So donate if you can. 🇵🇸

Hold the fuck on no way WW3 jokes are trending on Twitter when this is an extremely serious situation that’s threatening to destabilize an entire region. No way everyone’s gleefully looking at this as if it’s the grand show finale they’ve been waiting all along. There is no fucking way

PSA: Don't use Open Office

I keep seeing people recommending Open Office as an alternative to Word, and uh... look, it is, technically, an open source alternative to Word. And it can do a lot of what Word can, genuinely! But it is also an abandoned project that hasn't been updated in nine years, and there's an active fork of it which is still receiving updates, and that fork is called LibreOffice, and it's fantastic.

Seriously, if you think that your choices are either "grit your teeth and pay Microsoft for a subscription" or "support free software but have a kind of subpar office suite experience", I guarantee that it's because you're working with outdated information, or outdated software. Most people I know who have used the latest version of LibreOffice prefer it to Word. I even know a handful of people who prefer it to Scrivener.

Open Office was the original project, and so it has the most name recognition, and as far as I can tell, that's really the only reason people are still recommending it. It's kind of like if people were saying "hey, the iPhone 14 isn't your only smart phone option!" but then were only ever recommending the Samsung Galaxy S5 as an alternative. LibreOffice is literally a version of the same exact program as Open Office that's just newer and better – please don't get locked into using a worse tool just because the updated version of the program has a different name!

REMINDER THAT APRIL 15TH IS A GLOBAL STRIKE DAY FOR GAZA

Don't stimulate the economy and participate on local action, the site below contains more info about the strike.

Strike4Gaza

Home - Strike4Gaza

Organized by: Call to Action No Business as Usual No spending, no work, no school, no banking. Pressure on Economy Don’t participation in an

The strike is mostly in the US, but you can help regardless of country, you can also share info, boost posts in social media and put posters in your city about Gaza.

nobody warns you this but addiction happens without you noticing and one of the first things that it attacks is your ability to care. if you find yourself using recreational drugs every day, stop and take one day a week sober. if you struggle with this or if you don't see the point of the exercise, you are likely already addicted and you need help.

Do people realize that Israel is so unrestrained that it’s now launching attacks in Lebanon and Syria as well. Do people realize how little Arab people mean to these genocidal maniacs that they are now killing people in three Arab countries. Can genocide apologists pause their pure hatred for Arabs to at the very least admit this. Or are we going to pretend that Israel has a reason to be intensifying attacks in Damascus right now

Shout out to all the Black ppl that can no longer participate directly in the fandom they love because of the stresses of racism 👍🏾 you contain multitudes of value and I'm sorry that the color of your skin and the power of your voice makes people not want to acknowledge that.

apparently people are now purchasing thick water to make slimes with because of a trend on tiktok

thick water is for disabled people who can’t swallow properly. stores usually have extremely limited supplies of it.

please don’t buy thick water for fun or to make slime with. it’s literally the only way some disabled people can drink anything. It’s not a fucking toy

ramadan mubarak 💗 remember that palestinians are also going through ramadan amidst a genocide! if you are able, aim to focus your zakat on organisations like:

care for gaza (and their paypal here)

Hey be sure to go to your blog settings, head down to visibility and turn on this little button that prevents Tumblr from stealing your posts and using it to train AI learning models. Good job, fuckheads, great update.

Right, considering the current state of corporate politics on this site, and that it seems that only those affected seem to be actively speaking on the matter, it is up to I, the only fucking cishet on tumblr, to drag this out to a wider audience.

REBLOG IF YOUR ACCOUNT IS A TRANSFEM SAFE SPACE.

We need to show these higher ups how much we truly value them.

there's an app called "No Thanks" that scans barcodes and tells you whether a company supports israel or not if anyone is interested! it should be available on most app stores!

Just as a reminder that when a permanent ceasefire is achieved, we still should boycott companies like Starbucks. They union bust and treat their workers like dirt. Please remember that boycotts do work and that they don't just work for trying to end a genocide.

Until then, keep up the fight for a free Palestine. Make sure to set your attention onto the congo, Yemen, and everywhere else that should be freed.

REMINDER: It is Global Strike Week for Palestine

you can click on this button once daily to help palestine and support other causes in the middle east for free. it takes literally 5 seconds and could help save lives so please take the time to click and share this link.

We shouldn't just boycott the brands that support Israel right now, we need to cancel them. We must never go back to consuming certain brands, because some time passes and they make a few discounts and then people forget that their owners didn't change, they didn't change. We need to cancel them forever.

NEVER go to Starbucks. (They admitted putting elephant poop inside their coffee anyway. You can buy more reliable and cleaner coffee or make it yourself with recipes you can find on the internet.) NEVER go to KFC, McDonald's and other fast food companies. (You can find local bussinesses that have healthier and probably more delicious food.) NEVER subscribe to Disney+. (You can pirate.)

NEVER forget what these companies are in reality, at their cores. We can be independent of them. We don't need anything they have to offer. They aren't indispensable. We don't have to let the consumerist values these biggest capitalist corporations of our time are trying to push onto us define our society.

You can read the rest of the thread here. Plus here's the 84 page document submitted by South Africa

benjamin reese threatened his student, a little girl in 7th grade, by telling her he will "drag her ass into the parking lot, slit her fucking throat and kill her." the reason? she was uncomfortable with the israeli flag in his classroom because the apartheid entity was killing Palestinians.

in Illinois, a six-year-old Palestinian child was fatally stabbed in an attack that also left his mother critically injured.

three Palestinian students were shot in Vermont- leaving one paralysed chest down.

the East London Mosque had to be shot down temporarily due to threats of violence.

Dr Talaat Jehan Khan was stabbed to death outside her apartment in Texas.

but sure, spare a thought for zionists in Yale who saw the word "israeli" was removed from couscous salad labels in their dining hall.

edit : the word wasn't even removed. zionists just want to be a nuisance.

the fact that Israel can precisely target ONE apartment in an entire residential block in BEIRUT to kill two hamas leaders, proves once again that they CHOSE to carpet-bomb Gaza and murder 31.000 Palestinians to "defend themselves" against Hamas. Israel CHOSE to kill civilians, they CHOSE to bomb every hospital, every school, every refugee camp, every residential block. israel does NOTHING to spare the lives of palestinians, they want to thin out the population of gaza so they'd be able to settle their citizens there.

this is a genocide it's an ethnical cleansing PLEASE WAKE UP don't stop talking about Palestine it is not a trend, people are still dying, Israel has no plan to stop if WE don't force it to, through public pressure and protesting and boycotting. it's the least we can do.

Okay but who saw the footage of the aftermath of the Israeli bombing of a flat in Beirut last night, in which they assassinated Hamas members? Here's a picture fyr

Do you see how precise the attack was? There are buildings on both sides of the targeted flat and they look almost intact!

The accuracy is quite intriguing when you think of all the flattened neighbourhoods in Gaza and the residential buildings turned to dust, where supposed Hamas leaders were, according to Israel. Nearly 70% of Gaza's homes and about half of its buildings have been destroyed by Israel since October, killing over 20,000 Palestinians in the process.

If it doesn't make sense to you it's because you're using the wrong words to describe and understand this. Try "ethnic cleansing" and/or "genocide" next.

Isreal is trying to force the world to move on from its disproven atrocity propaganda, and we should never allow it to do so.

Keep reminding the world.

Name the lairs.
