A father caring for two children with cerebral palsy, with no support system left. Before the genocide, his children had access to specialized programs, medical care, and services that supported their development. Today, those services are gone. He has been left to manage their care alone while struggling to provide even the most basic necessity: food. Help here: chuffed.org/project/help-us-…
This is the reality for countless families in Gaza caring for children with disabilities. Families who were already vulnerable have lost nearly every form of support they once depended on.
On September 13, The Sameer Project kitchen distributed 451 meals of rice and kofta. Of those, 431 meals went to displaced families in Al-Karm Camp in Deir Al Balah seen here, and 20 were delivered to Civil Defense workers. The total cost after 11% transfer fees was $1,306.
For less than $3, you can take one burden off a parent already carrying more than anyone should have to bear. Help us keep our kitchen running. Families like his are depending on us. Donate to The Sameer Project’s Food and Water Campaign: chuffed.org/project/help-us-…

Imagine someone steals your car.
You go to take it back, but the thief complains: "If you take it, I won't have transport to work. You need to solve that problem for me first.
This is the "But what happens to the Jews when Palestine is free?" argument.
So 1000 PHP has the purchasing power of 51.66 USD but can only buy $15. The disparity between the actual value of USD and the international exchange rate is insane and is a huge aspect of global apartheid.

gaza is facing the threat of famine again. pls go through your budget and find something you can sustainably redirect to palestinian families. make donations part of your regular spending. i am terrified for my friends and i need them to have money when they find food.
Within the next 48 hours, if flour is not allowed into Gaza, all bakeries in the city will stop producing bread.
We are facing an enormous catastrophe. Famine is knocking on our doors once again, and this time, it could be worse than anything we have experienced before.
Please, do not remain silent! Talk about Gaza, make our voices heard around the world, and do everything you can before thousands of people lose access to something as basic as a loaf of bread.
Is there a name for the folktale trope of an individual animal representing the whole species? Stories about The Fox or The Rabbit, where there is only One of each that represents the collective traits of all of them
I always kinda interperted it as a criticism of juries. The only reason the kid gets a fair shake is bc juror 8 goes the extra mile, and also does his own investigating outside of his pervue as a juror. If they'd done what they were supposed to an innocent wouldve gone to prison.
Japan kind of did the 50s in the 80s, complete with the moral panic over juvenile delinquents at the tail end of the decade
Lotta friends who are afraid to buy a gun bc they might kill themselves with it. My friend, just get a bigger gun. If its too long to pull the trigger with your toes you'll be fine.
Weirdest experience i had on tiktok, i was talking about how the clit tastes slightly different bc in my experience it does, and someone accused me of lying to make women feel insecure. Im still baffled as to what aspect of that could trigger an insecurity.
It'd be funny if the Waynes were like the Kennedys, big extended family that's memetically tragedy prone. When Thomas and Martha got shot everyone was like "yep, that's the curse. Like when Brad Wayne got the bends last year."
Get scammed using a debit card: tough shit your money is gone, good luck getting it back.
Get scammed using a credit card: report the fraud, charge taken off the bill immediately, credit card company goes after the scammer, no longer your problem, you lose nothing.
