Hello
My name is Aya, and I am reaching out from Gaza, where my family and I are living in constant fear and suffering. Every moment poses a grave danger to our lives due to the ongoing war. The bombing never ceases, and we are running out of food and water.
Every passing minute increases our risk, and our hearts are filled with anxiety and pain. I urgently need your help to evacuate my family from this hell. We are desperately seeking a way out, but we need financial support to do so.😔😔
Please, extend a hand to save us and let the world hear our cries.💔💔

are we sure the only way out is through? like. are we sure we can't just. go around
When I was a very suicidal trans activist in Texas, Benjamin Sisko saying “sure, you would [die for your people]. Dying gets you off the hook. The question is: are you willing to live for your people?” changed and possibly saved my life. It’s up there with “if we are going to be damned, let us be damned for who we really are” from Picard. Star Trek not only shows us a better world, it teaches us how to make it there
thats pretty reasonable i guess
Rebuild with Me: A Journey from Destruction 💥 to Hope ✨
🚨 Urgent Help Needed! 🚨
Hello everyone, I’m Osama Basil, a web developer from Gaza. The ongoing war hasn’t just destroyed my office—it has shattered my livelihood and crushed my dreams, leaving my family in an extremely difficult situation. Yet, despite these overwhelming challenges, I refuse to surrender and remain fiercely determined to push forward.
💡 Why I Need Your Help
I’m aiming to raise €15,000 to rebuild my office, install a solar energy system, and secure stable internet access—which are crucial for my work as a freelance web developer, since there has been no electricity in Gaza for over a YEAR!!—and pursue a master’s degree.
This support will allow me to continue working, meet my essential needs, and provide for my family in the face of the overwhelming cost of living in Gaza, where the closure of crossings and severe shortages of goods have made survival even more difficult. With this help, we can begin to rebuild our lives and regain a sense of stability during these incredibly challenging times.
Every donation, no matter how small, means the world to us. I’ve shared more details in the campaign link below. Your kindness will truly make a difference.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you! Together, we can turn this challenge into hope ✨❤️

the person who helped today when I fell out of my wheelchair actually did a really great job, so I want to share in case other people wonder what to do. [Note: this is not universal, this is merely a suggestion from one person, every wheelchair user's needs are different! I am a person who uses a manual chair usually pushed by someone else who is also disabled.]
Scenario: you see someone in a wheelchair fall out of their chair, and you have the ability to help.
1. Approach and ask "are you okay?"*
2. Next question if they say no, are vague, or open to continuing conversation** is, "is there anything I can do to help?" Or "what can I do?"
- If they say no to help, then that's the end, just leave and go do whatever you were doing!
- If they ask for help or say they are mildly injured, ask "what would you like me to do?" And wait for an answer before doing anything! If they seem dazed or confused, they might have hit their head or had another medical event*, or they might just be like that due to regular disability. Be patient.
Do not touch the person unless they say to, or they are like, unconcious in the middle of the road, ya know?? Wheelchair users usually have conditions that mean being handled improperly can severely injure us, you could cause much more damage than the fall.
Some things they might need you to do:
- Bring their wheelchair closer (mine went about 5 feet away after it dumped me)
- engage the brakes of the wheelchair
- hold wheelchair steady if it's an unsteady surface (mud, hill, ramp, wet, etc)
- offer an arm for them to hold onto to get up (them grabbing you, not you grabbing them) or move another solid item closer for them to use (i.e. a chair) [only do this if you physically have the ability to!]
- If the terrain is rough (i.e. a parking lot), they *might* ask you to push their chair to a more stable area once they are back in their chair
- nothing
- Something else
Do what they ask, NOT what you think would be helpful. If for some reason you have to do something (i.e. you can't stop oncoming traffic and need to get them out) ASAP, tell them what you plan to do
Keep in mind they might also be D/deaf, have a communication disability, be stunned after the fall, have a head injury, not trust other people, etc. Be patient and treat them as a person with autonomy and agency! They might need to just sit on the ground for a few minutes to recover before trying to get back in their chair. They might want everyone to leave them alone. They might ask you to call someone specific. Their chair might have broken and that can be extremely distressing. All of this is like if your legs spontaneously stop working when you're out and about!
A lot of wheelchair users (NOT ALL) have ways to get into their chair on their own once the chair is close enough and brakes engaged (but it's hard from the ground!). Here's what brakes look like on a lot of manual wheelchairs, in case they ask you to lock the brakes. They're levers on each side and pushing the lever pushes a bar against the wheel to hold it still.
ID: A manual wheelchair with the brake levels circled in red and labeled "user brake levers"
*There is also the possibility of course that a person fell out of their chair due to a seizure or other medical event, so that is why it is important to ask if they are okay. If you saw them hit their head, tell them so. If they had a medical event, follow protocol for that, I'm not gonna get into it here (thought I could).
**sometimes a person will be clear after the first question i.e. "I'm all good thanks" clearly means they do not need you to ask another question, you can just leave them alone. Keep walking and don't stare. A lot of the time people will be a bit banged up but be totally fine and able to manage on their own.
TLDR: Ask the wheelchair user if they're okay, then what they need, and then do exactly that, including leaving them alone. Thanks!
Autistic spaces are getting so much more hostile towards people with low empathy, and it sucks
There was a subreddit I really liked, people were chill, and then there was a sudden influx of people making posts like ‘Autistic people have empathy! Saying we don’t makes us seem like monsters! Thats not a symptom!’ And people making posts explaining that no, actually, some of us do have low empathy got attacked and told they were wrong or ableist? And it sucks, because its just so hard to find a place to exist where you can be seen as not evil? I don’t know, it just hurts a lot to be told that
everyone is talking about the sub dm prompt but i need everyone to know this will stick with me forever
i can’t stop watching it
