israa is a mother to a 2 year old toddler nasser and an infant who was born in the middle of the genocide. her family's tent was bombed and everyone was murdered. her husband was kidnapped by the iof for 8 months. now all she has left is her children and her ailing father. he is scheduled to get surgery but they can't afford it.
this is urgent. they need $800 as soon as possible
ONLY £10 RAISED IN THE LAST 20 HOURS
£5.529 has been raised so far from the goal it's short-term £20,000 not much on this family they need more than that because her father suffers from cancer and needs more surgery in a short period of time - we need to achieve the goal as quickly as possible still until the target is achieved £14,408.. Please donate and participate.. The smallest amount added to achieving the goal and thank you ❤️

🇵🇸 Vetted fundraisers for Palestine 🇵🇸 (18/?)

All of these campaigns are legitimate and all these people do need support for food, medical care, clothing, and shelter when winter comes. If you don’t know who to donate to, click here. Whatever number you get, donate $5-$20 to that family, or whatever you can afford. Every little bit really does help :) I’d really like to encourage donations with these lists, not just reblogs. Thanks, everyone! 🇵🇸
If you buy e-sims for Gaza and or donate to other charities and fundraisers to aid the people of Palestine, Sudan, Congo, or Papua New Guinea, especially fundraisers to families to safety, I will doodle you a beetle, butterfly, or moth of your choice! They'll look something like this only digital:
And if you donate any amount of $50+ I'll draw you a linework portrait, be it favorite characters, oc's, celebs, etc. My portrait work looks like this:
Just send e-sim receipts and proof of donation to @/[email protected]
Here's a link to donate to the UNRWA
Heres a fundraiser for a Palestinian family in need as well as it being a direct link to Ahmed's blog where you can find links to help him and his family as well
And heres a short list of smaller charities and resources to find more families to donate to in Gaza
EDIT
Heres a few gfm for families trying to escape Sudan as well (theres a few more you can find searching "Sudan" on my blog):
Again, if you search key terms like Palestine, Gaza, Congo, or Sudan on my blog, additional fundraisers will show up that also need help
I do want to let it be known that any piece you get from me are for personal use only. It's cool if you want to use them for your personal social media accounts as avatars or headers though, just have the usual courtesy to credit.
I just got described as an "ad hating commie" by someone because I said a minute of youtube ads is unpleasant. fully spent 5 minutes arguing and defending youtube ads. insane stuff
reblog if you are an ad hating commie
Help save the life of Attaa
Attaa, a precious 2-year-old girl born after her parents' 7-year wait. Now, her life is in danger as war engulfs the Gaza Strip. We desperately need your support to provide her with life-saving medical care and shelter. Every donation, no matter how small, can make a world of difference. Please consider donating today to help Attaa and her family survive this unimaginable ordeal. By sharing this post, you can help spread the word and increase the chances of reaching our goal. Together, we can give Attaa a fighting chance against the horrors of war. Thank you for your kindness and generosity. Every dollar donated brings us closer to saving Attaa's precious life.
Hello my Friends
I’m reaching out to you with a heavy heart. After GoFundMe deleted my account, I found myself in a difficult situation and urgently need your help. I’ve set up a PayPal campaign to continue seeking support, and I’ve updated the link in the original post.
Every contribution, no matter how small, brings us one step closer to hope. Your generosity means everything to us during this challenging time. Thank you for standing by us.
Hello Everyone, please do donate to our friend Husam from Help Gaza Children.
GoFundMe cruelly deleted his campaigns after insisting on "receipts" despite having video proof of the material Husam bought. So I'm starting a donation train of $20 USD for his campaign which only has the $20 USD I donated. Please do try to match my donation if you can!

I'm not actually sure if posts / fundraiser pages that contain photos and videos of children tend to raise more money, but god, I almost hope not
imagine being a parent trying to restrain the urge to rush to comfort your children because you think a video of them suffering might convince someone to help them. or a woman who normally doesn't post photos for religious reasons having to weigh your principles against the idea that posting a photo might help you get something to eat. or one of these children growing up, knowing that these photos are out there & that they can be seen and shared around by the very people who want to exterminate them.
when Mohammed went to try to salvage something from his destroyed home, he made sure to take lots of photos and videos in between being shot at by IOF soldiers so that he could prove he had done everything he could to try to provide his family with winter supplies before he turned to the internet.
we need to start sharing and giving regardless of how attractive, convincing, well-worded, or emotionally affecting a post is. we cannot keep forcing people to make these kinds of choices to try to get help.

Anonymous asked:
do u have any particular academic sources problematizing the view that cis women cannot build muscle to the same extent cis men can or are otherwise incapable of being as physically strong. its ok if not love u
id start with testosterone: an unauthorised biography and follow their actual footnotes in the sports chapter... u could also try looking thru the literature on sports doping since this is an area where a lot of discourses of sexuation & ideas about hormones etc collide, but on the history side at least, sport hasn't always been treated as like a serious topic of study & a lot of the existing lit on it is pretty superficial, plus it's still kind of an odd duck out because historians of science tend to compartmentalise it into technology or medicine subtopics. so idrk what all is out there. but yeah i think most of these quasi scientific claims about gendered sport performance tend to be justified (at least rhetorically) by appeal to hormones, so i think you'll find the most useful material by reading anything that contextualises or problematises the binarist & essentialist claims made about them, even if you can't find much that's specifically tackling the question of muscle / sport performance

some bad news from Mohammed Abu Alwan. the Zionist occupation has bombed markets very close to where the family is staying, and he’s worried that the shops won’t be open for much longer.
we need to make sure he, his wife Samar, and their three small children have the supplies they need for the winter before it’s too late. people who are already malnourished and sick can’t take the cold weather that’s coming!

everyone says join your local mutual aid groups and build community, but uh, what do you do if a lot of them seem to have dissolved and the other ones don't have consistent recurring meetings.
this is real, and it's a thing that a lot of people are going to run into in the fact of calls to "get involved," especially if they're people who haven't been deeply involved in their communities before. so here's what I can share:
- You can't expect it to be built for you already. Community organizing has fallen apart in a lot of places. That means you may need to be the one to start it. Someone has to.
- Your presence will matter. Local community networks are SMALL. That means that every single person has an outsized presence and an outsized absence. One person dropping off the map can feel catastrophic, but that also means that one person stepping up can make all the difference.
- Find a center. Any community group needs a steady base. That can be a physical location - that's why coffeehouses were historically such effective grounds for building political and creative movements. It can also be a person or people who are consistent and reliable. If one person shows up to make space for work on a regular basis, they'll be there when the second person shows up. They'll be there for the third. That's how it starts.
- Play secretary. A lot of activist groups are starving for some basic admin support. Maybe you're not up for being the leader, but maybe you can organize the Google drive. Maybe you can be the one that keeps phone numbers. There's a lot of unsexy shit work out there that needs to be done.
- Count your eggs before you start baking. There is an economics of labor to why activism circles have shrunk. Be mindful of the time and hands you have available when deciding what work you're able to take on.
- Build tolerance, build coalitions. Small organizing means you can't afford to fracture over every little disagreement. Decide your mission and your values from the start, the things that are non-negotiable, and don't get hung up on the rest. Be prepared to work with people you don't like. Focus on the task at hand.
- Network! Know what other related or like-minded projects are out there, whether they are groups like yours in other areas or groups in your community who are doing work that intersects with yours.
- Be there for people. Step up. Offer to help. Even outside an organizing structure, if you become the kind of person who shows up and helps, people will remember you and they will reach out to you when need arises.
