Hazem Khalil (@hazem1999sblog) is @bilal-salah0's friend. Bilal is verified by Nairuz and Hussein. He's legit. His old blog, @hazem1999, was shadowbanned and he had to remake just a few days ago. Now he's getting error messages when he tries to send DMs. This is really, really bad.
His entire family has been stuck in Jabalia refugee camp in northern Gaza for months. Now the cost of living has skyrocketed and the means for survival are scarce. His family cannot even access drinking water or food. Tumblr is taking away his only source of income during the genocide.
They need €50,000 as soon as possible, but its been 10 days and they haven't even broken €1k.
Please reblog this, follow his blog, read his previous posts and donate. We can't let Tumblr silence him.
edit august 1:
but thanks to you we crossed €1000. how quickly can we get his family to €2000??
his new blog is @hazempalestine, please follow, donate, and share
edit august 15:
Thank you to everyone who showed concern for him.
Thankfully no bullshit happened to @hazempalestine’s new blog and you can still find him there. Since making this post two weeks ago we have managed to raise around €6000 for Hazem which is a great start but he has an urgent goal of €10k by the start of next week, which means he has to raise around €1000 a day!
Please keep sharing and donating!!

So.
I know we’re all terrified and devastated; I’ve seen this both on and off Tumblr. Please believe me when I say I understand completely, that so many of my friends and I have been feeling that same terror and devastation all day. Many of us on this website, myself included, are university students: we have all worked so hard to be admitted, and we have worked so hard for our qualifications and/or degrees. I can’t speak for everyone, but I know I have made so many leaps and bounds towards being fully out as a trans person while I’ve been here at university. We all had so many dreams and hopes for our futures, visions of the lives we wanted to lead, and the feeling of watching them disintegrate in the blink of an eye is indescribable. I understand, I really do.
But even in the midst of all this, I know we are lucky — privileged, even — to be American: nobody is frantically writing think-pieces on why our pain is acceptable or why it should simply be considered collateral damage; nobody is forcing us to humanize ourselves in a language we are unfamiliar with and declaring us robots or scammers if we fail to live up to their standards; the world gives us sympathy by default.
My friend Basma (@basmaalghoul) does not have this privilege. Like me, she worked hard in university and majored in business administration; she even earned international certificates! Before the accelerated genocide, she had begun working as a makeup artist and hoped to open a large salon for women. But her dreams, too, have been stolen — along with those of her children: Toleen (8), Malak (7) and Kamal (4).
On top of the pain of having her dreams destroyed, Basma and her family have had to survive more than a year of bombing, starvation, disease and famine; she’s recently told me that there are no vegetables or cheese available on the market, and her children are all suffering from malnutrition as every child in Ghazzah is. To make matters worse, she’s also told me that Israel has banned supplies necessary for children, which has artificially driven the prices of these items to absurd heights: she’s told me that the price of Pampers is now $100.
This fundraiser is now her family's only lifeline. Winter is rapidly approaching; please help her keep her children warm.
$4,693 USD / $5,065 USD [short-term goal] | (kr50,967 SEK / kr55,000 SEK [short-term goal])
Let’s get her to $4,696 USD (kr51,000 SEK) by the end of today!

🌍✨ A Voice from Gaza: Fighting for Hope ❤️🩹
Hi, my name is Mosab , and I’m from Gaza. Life here has been harder than I could ever imagine, but today I’m sharing my story with hope in my heart, because your kindness has already given us so much strength.
This journey hasn’t been easy. The war has taken 25 family members from us—25 beautiful souls we loved deeply. Their laughter, their presence, their love… all of it is gone, leaving behind memories that are both precious and painful. Every day, I carry the weight of their loss, but I also carry their spirit, which gives me the strength to keep going.
Our Journey So Far
When I first reached out, I couldn’t have imagined we’d make it this far. Your support has been a light in these difficult times, and we are so deeply grateful for every single contribution.
But the road ahead is still challenging. Every day, we’re reminded of how much we’ve lost and how much we still need to rebuild.
Here’s what life in Gaza looks like for my family right now:
🏠 Safety: The uncertainty of tomorrow weighs heavily on us.
😢 Loss: The absence of the 25 family members we’ve lost is a pain we carry every moment.
💔 Dreams on Hold: The future feels so far away when survival takes all our strength.
How You Can Help Us Cross the Finish Line Even the smallest act of kindness can make a difference:
$5 may seem small, but for us, it’s a little relief, a moment of comfort, and a reminder that kindness still exists. ❤️
Can’t donate? Reblog this post to help us reach someone who can. Every share matters more than you know.
Why Your Support Matters Your kindness isn’t just about helping us meet our goal—it’s about reminding us that we’re not alone in this fight. It’s about hope. It’s about survival. And it’s about giving my family a chance to rebuild our lives, even in the face of unimaginable loss.
Thank you for helping us get this far. Your generosity and compassion have already brought us closer to a better tomorrow, and for that, I’m endlessly grateful.
With all my love and gratitude,
Mosab and Family ❤️
whats it like to feel alive?
happy prison death anniversary
The original tweet I got this from says via 2024Blockout. I couldn't find the @ on Twitter so it's likely a TikTok account.
The goal is to block any major celebrity who hasn't spoken up about Gaza in order to cut off their means of making money off of us. If their videos and ads don't appear on our TLs and FYPs, that means no revenue for them. There's some videos going around explaining this campaign in depth better which I'll post later on, but I'm liking the idea and blocking whoever I can on Twitter and IG since I don't have TikTok.
Here's a blocklist I saw going around:
