I am sharing a Palestinian account every day and today is Ahmed. Ahmed is the father of a 2 year old daughter, Julia but also takes care of his mother, grandmother and several nieces and nephews. He currently has a leg injury that he’s worried if he doesn’t get treated may lead to amputation.

I am sharing a Palestinian account every day and today is Mohammed. Mohammed is a nurse who learned German because he hoped to immigrate to Germany as a nurse (his German is probably better than mine). He lost his home and is trying to provide for his parents and extended family. Help if you can ❤️

I just want to remind people that Israel is intentionally starving Palestinians in Gaza and the whole world is watching in silence

I feel like you can see Ahmad’s cheeks hollowing out over the course of the latest photos 😢

So now they are arresting people accused of no crimes who are lawful residents of the United States. Wow.

I’m sharing a Palestinian account every day and today is Doaa. Doaa is 28 and a mother of three, including this sweet little newborn she has Huda, 4 and Khalil, 2. Her husband was injured and she has become the sole earner for her family. She also has an autoimmune disease she needs treatment for.

I’m sharing a Palestinian account every day and today is Fathi. Fathi is the only Gazan I’ve spoken to I think that has been to the US- he was in Seattle for several weeks as a teenager for an exchange program. He’s now trying to survive with his family including his kids Yamen, 8 and Abd, 6.

If you aren’t buying things today⬇️⬇️ use some of that money here

Doaa sent me some photos of her lovely embroidery ❤️

a cloture vote for the way-harder-to-undo-than-an-executive-order federal anti-trans sports ban is now set for monday. that means there's more time to make calls. no on cloture means it doesn't get a vote. the GOP needs 7 dems to advance it. please call. there is *so* much evil downstream of this.

ALERT! It just broke that tomorrow, the Senate will attempt a procedural vote on a transgender sports ban. It will take 7 Democrats breaking rank in order to have enough votes to pass cloture. Democrats held very strong in the House and only lost two votes. CALL YOUR DEMS! (info in next post)

I try to keep commentary on Palestine out of my shares of the day but I gotta say I’d love to see a Zionist justification for bombing a fucking ice cream shop

I’m sharing a Palestinian account every day and today is Shimaa. Shimaa was an Arabic language teacher before the war, but she has lost her job, her home and also her husband is missing. She is trying to survive in a tent with her tiny daughter Sela who is only 8 months old and was born in the war.

I am sharing a Palestinian account every day and today are brothers Tarek and Fares. Fares is 19 and hoped to be a data scientist. He was severely injured in a bombing that killed a friend he was helping evacuate. He’s had 7 surgeries. Tarek was studying English translation and is only 22.

The West Bank is under attack. Missile strikes. Mass arrests. Escalated occupation presence. Metal gates at village entrances. Pogroms by settlers. Palestinians never get a moment to breathe.

As Trump takes office & pledges mass deportations, here is a shareable film series written *by immigrants for immigrants* on how to safely defend against ICE. The first of four: 🚨If ICE is outside your door, don’t panic. Don’t open the door. Ask to see a warrant. ICE can’t enter w/o one. Part 1:

Frankly fuck checking on your trans friends to see if you're ok after the president is tries to legally write us out of existence none of you were doing that anyways, it's time for you to fight for us. The best time was yesterday the 2nd best time is today Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

467 days. None of us will ever be the same. Nor should we be. Nothing will ever be the same. Nor should it be.

I’m sharing a Palestinian account every day and today is Alma. Alma is only 13 so her account is run by her big sister Tala who is 19. Alma and Tala are trying to help their whole family including her little brothers. They have been displaced for over a year and lost their home and schools.

"You don't need to have legal papers or be a U.S. citizen to help others," he said. "When you support someone, you strengthen your union with them. When you stop and ask if they could use a hand, they'll remember that." I hope we all remember and never forget #LAFire ❤️‍🩹

Meta is now completely censoring searches for the terms "trans" and "transgender" etc. on Threads. So much for free speech and free expression.

as LA is burning, a swath of the country is recovering from an ice storm, Alabama is preparing for up to 6” of snow and I’m praying for the TX power grid, a reminder: we don’t need climate action just for future generations, we need it now. the climate crisis is here, all around us

I know Jamal has been around a long time, and I know he has collected a lot - but he also has to spend a lot to care for his double digit size family. If Jamal is old news to Bluesky, get swiping. Email your auntie, text your ex. The number of Gazans who need us isn't decreasing anytime soon.

They have $200 left to reach 30k, Let's surprise them and gladden the hearts of the innocent together, God will reward us. ‼️ Donate GFM gofund.me/54e019a2 ‼️ or PayPal www.paypal.me/Fidaaumer

Meta is pure evil and deserves to be wiped off the face of the planet. They removed all restrictions on content targeting protected characteristics i.e. hate speech. Anyone working there is complicit. You are enabling this. You will have blood on your hands. www.wired.com/story/meta-i...

Diana, who wanted to be a teacher, lost her home to the ongoing genocide in Gaza. Her family's displaced, and her son Riad has heart problems that require urgent treatment, exacerbated by living with starvation in winter because of Israel's imposed famine. Please share or give to help them survive:

Khalil's family has 3 children, an injured breadwinner and many expenses. Please share and donate; this family has been through so much.

Where is this point of view of crackdowns on trans people as authoritarian when it's happening in the US? They can clearly see it when it's in other countries. When is here, it's just a "culture war."

Anyway transfem erasure looks like "This service to help vulnerable women doesn't need to accommodate trans women, because I've imagined a cis man in a wig trying a Scheme trying to access it instead"

Okay I cannot even keep track of the number of people who have lost things in the rain in Gaza last night so I’m going to make a thread of accounts I’ve shared before who have contacted me today

New Year With Genocide, No happiness in Gaza We are trapped in tents We live among the rubble We live the bombing We live in starvation We freez to death We saw all kind of death gofund.me/4afe7094 www.paypal.me/Hijazi562

"Shame must change sides." – Gisèle Pelicot

they see jesus in the passion of #luigi but not in palestinians resisting in #gaza and jerusalem… why is that?

the nonprofit industrial complex will not save us.

"Okay, get some snaps of that Mangione character, but you better not pull any bullshit where he looks like the subject in a 16th century painting called 'Christ taken at the Garden of Gethsemane'." "Okay, now don't be mad but..."

The largest strike against Amazon ever is happening right now. The working class in this country is fed up and fighting back against corporate greed. Withholding your labor is a right.

Lots of clarity today

Look if someone in Gaza can ask me a bunch of polite questions about nonbinary people because they want to understand another friend’s pronouns- no one else really has an excuse.

The solution to the NRA buying politicians isn’t to stop the NRA itself, it’s to stop allowing ALL groups that at dark money groups from being able to buy politicians. This is bigger than red v. blue, campaign finance is an issue within both major political parties.

here's my favorite albums by transfem musicians I've been listening to this year 1. Hi-Def Femme (@nomiruiz.bsky.social) 2. Pink Balloons (@ekkoastral.bsky.social) 3. Year of the Bunny by Sludge Bunny (@undercover-amy.bsky.social) 4. I Have Been Fighting For My Life (@evelynfloragray.bsky.social)

Oh my horrible heart. A new air strike on an apartment in Gaza City kills 8 people from one family. The family was set to fire. Horrible scenes.
