gazafunds seeks to uplift stagnant or otherwise struggling fundraisers for gazans seeking evacuation or simple necessities. i know many of the images crossing your feeds today are harrowing and impossible to fathom, but those in the line of fire need your help, not your complacency. gazafunds also urges those who are able to adopt a fundraiser to amplify to do so (you can contact them via their twitter.)

i just hope that no person anywhere in the world at any point in the future has to go through what mothers in gaza went through these past few months.

like it was so insane. women were giving birth without medical aid and having c-sections without anaesthesia while being malnourished and unable to properly provide food and warmth to their newborns. they couldn't produce milk and couldn't afford baby formula. hell, at a certain point finding baby formula was impossible in certain areas of gaza. and there was the constant fear of death hanging over their heads.

there were hopes that after the ceasefire things would improve for these babies and their mothers. that their quality of life would improve. but now that there are chances that israel won't continue with the ceasefire, we need to support these mothers and infants, now more than ever.

please please consider helping my friend suad, who has a little baby boy who suffers from respiratory problems. she just wants to ensure her son's well being. baby khaled is around 8 months old. her fundraiser has been verified (#279).

please help suad and her baby

tw: rant and mentions of harassment

Some of the people at my school are awful. There's this one guy who keeps harassing my friend into trying to date him. she and my friends tell him to fuck off, but he never stops. There's another girl who keeps trying to ask a boy out, and he keeps saying no. Once I heard her say, "oH hE acTuaLLY LIkeS mE BuT He'S tOo eMbarraSSEd to SaY No!" for both the first guy mentioned and second girl mentioned, I've seen them make threats to the people they like. One of the first guy's friends said, "If you don't go out with me, then I'll start asking friend 2 to go out with me." You seriously don't know what consent is? No means no, take it as an answer. people like this piss me off so much.
