WAYS WE CAN HELP PALESTINE:
as of 9am today, 8131 palestinians were killed, 20438 are injured and 1.4 million have been displaced. it’s important for all of us to help palestine in as many ways as we can.
i also cannot stress how much just spreading awareness in general can help. staying silent because of your discomfort is not an excuse to sit by while a genocide takes place. when we learn about these events in history we often think “how was this allowed to happen?” but that’s exactly what’s happening now and it’s our responsibility to not sit by and let an entire country be wiped out. i will continue adding more ways to help to this post and i’d really appreciate it if anyone can spread this as much as possible.
it’s important to get educated on everything going on in palestine right now, here are some sources that could help!
decolonize palestine - made by two palestinians, answers a lot of questions regarding everything right now (including debunking a lot of myths from biased news stations) and provides a lot of historical context.

Support Palestine
I usually just post my writing and faceless photos because I like having anonymity but I want my blog to be a free and safe space so there are a few thoughts I've had recently.
To begin, not a day goes by without thinking of Palestine and Ukraine. There is so much hate and evil in the world it can feel overwhelming and it's easy to feel helpless and (for some,) ignore the problem. There is so much we can do!! A quick google search will show you where you can reach out to representatives in your state and literally text them!! Its that easy you don't even have to call! Also today was Election Day and voting matters!!
I left this link that gives plenty of links to resources and ways to help. Make sure to give Palestinian voices to be heard during this time as well. A crucial part of allyship is creating and demanding the space for these voices to be heard.
Make sure you get your information from reliable sources too! A lot of media wants to paint the narrative that they benefit from.
I'm not here to argue with people online, or convince you one side is right, frankly its exhausting. I'm spreading the information of ways to help and I want my blog to be a place for empathy and peace.

HYGIENE PRODUCTS FOR GAZA
Tumblr media
Organised by the Asad sisters, Leena, Amanda and Loren with Pious Projects.
— At $20 each, this kit will include - but is not limited to - sanitary pads, a hair brush, tooth brush, toothpaste, cotton swabs, wipes, tissues, and other hygienic items depending on availability!
You can donate as little as $5 if you just want to help out, or donate a bulk of kits for between $100 to $1,000!
Access to the right hygeine products is essential for Palestinian people, as the Israeli blockade has left millions without access to proper hygeine that can lead to potentially fatal infections and diseases.
Do your part today:

If anyone wants to purchase an esim to provide internet access to Palestinians but haven't yet, you can use my Nomad referral code LYDI79TR for $3 off your first purchase! With this code esims are as low as $6, and this is a way you can immediately help someone in Gaza who might otherwise not be able to make contact with their loved ones.
More detailed information on esims is available here, and a tutorial walking through how to purchase and send an esim through Nomad is available here.
edit to add: if this code isn’t working for you, try codes NOMADCNG or BACKPACKNOMAD !

“My name is Nour Saqer, for the name remains when all is lost. I turned 22 years old last November. Yes. My youthful time was wasted on horrible days. Yes. Those days still continue.
My name is Nour Saqer. And I am 22 years old. I am a fifth-year dental student at Al-Azhar University of Gaza. I am an aspiring student. I am eager and passionate about my studies. Until the last minute, I was allowed to stay at my house on Oct. 7th. 2023 I was still working on a scientific research proposal that was supposed to be published by me and my teammates of young researchers late in November, that year.
Tumblr media
This picture of me was taken late 2022 during an international dental conference held in campus.
During my college years alone. Me and my family have had to forcefully evacuate, and run out of our house four times. In 2019, 2021, 2022, and finally in 2023. Each time was in fear of the same threat; meeting our deaths under rubble. My name is Nour Saqer. And I have always been a Gazan. Each of those past times. If we were fortunate enough, we would discover that our home was in repairable damage. There would be a roof over our heads still. We were still fortunate. We still had luck.
But ever since October 7th. I haven't returned home. We were among the first families to evacuate Al-Rimal neighborhood from the very first day of this genocide, we had to turn our backs to it and expect no return. Two floors of my family house, along with my father's store, and only source of income, have been severely destructed due to neighboring missiles. And my university buildings were heavily exploded. All forms of life have been reaped from my city. My hometown.
Tumblr media
This is what's left of our campus. I was supposed to have my graduation ceremony here.
My name is Nour Saqer. And I had an enthusiastic heart. And an energetic body. I played sports and walked down every street until I couldn't. I loved my family and friends dearly. I wrote poems about them. I spent time loving them and cherishing their presence. I loved life with all its little things. With all its unattainable things. I loved the grass and the tall buildings. And I loved all people. I loved my people. All their faces. All their talents. All their hidden lives. All we shared. Until we didn't. Everything I have ever loved I lost.
Tumblr media
This picture of me was taken during a happy moment on the roof of our house.
This is all that is left of that picture now.
I am currently sheltered in Rafah with my family of 7. Sharing a place with 30 other homeless people. By the end of Ramadan, me and my family would have to evacuate and seek shelter for yet the 8th time due to housing problems. I am so tired of not having any sense of stability. Nothing to guarantee. Nothing to call my own. Every passing minute the situation in Rafah gets worse. Every passing minute I am losing loved ones and relatives. Every passing minute costs me my sanity. Costs me health. Costs me my basic rights to simply live.
I have nothing left to lose or pay the price with except for my life.
I don’t know how to retell my life story in limited words, how to make the most ordinary moments sound precious. How do I equate my value to someone deserving a life of safety? How do I shape myself as someone worth saving?
I have been interviewing myself for days. All my stories are choking me. All my grief is piling up and muting me. I keep trying to find a way to present the best of myself. To make myself someone you'd want to look at. Listen to. And even more,
Help.
I am finally placing both hope and faith in your helpful hands. I am asking you. Please put an end to this continuing tragedy. And help me get to safety. Before it's too late.
It should be in your knowledge that:
It costs $5,000 per person to get out of Rafah through the Boarder Crossing to Egypt. The rest of the donations will be to secure my tution money for the fifth and final year of dental school.
Thank you.”

WAYS TO HELP PALESTINE 🇵🇸
uscpr.org
USCPR has ways for you to donate to Palestinians in need, plenty of information about the crimes against Palestine if you are uninformed or want to know more, along with protest information and pre-written scripts you can use to call your officials with
linktr.ee/MedicalAidforPalestinians.org
Site for donating for medical aid for Palestinians, along with a few other links to help take action and stay informed. Remember that even if you can't donate a lot, just a bit helps
matwprojectusa.org
Donation site for medical, food, and water aid in Palestine and other areas as well.
palestiniansocialfund.com
Unconditional funding for food growth in Palestine through grassroots
Not a link but something that can help: test "resist" to 50409 in reference to bill HR 3103, it is a bot that will help you write out a letter on your phone to send to congress, senate, and president if you'd rather not make a call!
Here is a list of some very major brands to boycott, which DOES MAKE A DIFFERENCE:
McDonalds, Starbucks, Disney, especially Disney+, Coco Cola, Victoria Secret, Puma, Nike, Walmart
There are MANY more brands that support the genocide, but these are the most major. Research is good!!

You can donate here to help provide support to the standing hospitals and health facilities in Gaza
pcrf.net
A children's relief fund that helps to provide crucial life-saving medical relief and aid
unrwausa.org
Medical support, trauma relief, and food assistance in Gaza! They also have an easy way for you to email congress

🇵🇸🔻I need everyone to remember: we must not get desensitised to the words genocide, ethnic cleansing, occupation, massacre, colonialism, imperialism, white supremacy, colonial violence, settler violence and war crime
do not let the gravity of those words, or the actions they describe, be lost on you. do not let them lose meaning in your mind just because we use them so often in our speaking out for Palestine.
letting our minds forget the sheer atrocity of these words is what "israel" is banking on, because the instant they just become what we tag Palestine posts with, or part of the copy pasted outrage we caption our posts with, or part of the usual paragraphs we see on posts from those in Gaza, we will lose steam because our brains will switch off
DO NOT BECOME DESENSITIZED TO WHAT ZIONISTS IN OCCUPIED PALESTINE, THE USA, THE UK, AND THE WEST ARE DOING TO PALESTINIANS
DO NOT LET YOURSELF BECOME ACCUSTOM TO WHAT ZIONISTS ARE DOING. DO NOT LET YOUR BRAIN ALLOW IT TO BECOME A NORMAL OCCURANCE AND NORMAL NEWS
IT IS NOT NORMAL. WHAT "ISRAEL" AND THE USA AND THE UK AND THE WEST ARE DOING IN GAZA AND THE WEST BANK AND PALESTINE IS NOT NORMAL.
IT IS INHUMAN. IT IS EVIL. NEVER FORGET. NEVER FORGIVE. NEVER.

Remember during the 2016 elections, we were so scared of what Trump might do? How afraid we were for Roe but were told by so many people, pro-choice people even, that it was such settled law and it would be such a flashpoint, they'd never touch it. Don't overreact, you sound hysterical, this fearmongering is ruining your credibility. Hell, maybe worry for gay marriage, but abortion? No chance.
We watched Kavanaugh and ACB confirmed with increasing trepidation and STILL there was so much shock when the Dobbs leak happened.
Remember that feeling of knowing what was going to happen, because of your experience and knowledge, and nobody believing you till it was too late? And the very people who smugly shut you up pivoting and continuing to act like the authority, that, ah, yes, now was the time to worry?
This guy above represents the mainstream Western narrative since Israel killed the World Central Kitchen aid workers.
Somehow, after everything we've already seen, Israel was still getting the benefit of the doubt. After killing hundreds of aid workers already, mostly Palestinian, after killing more than 15,000 children, after killing multiple people waving white flags. After literally a scenario where a Red Crescent ambulance arranged safe passage with the IDF--just as this WCKitchen convoy had--to rescue a 6 year old child and ending up bombed.
Why didn't the world listen before? Israel didn't suddenly change, only perceptions have. They're the same now as they were three days ago, as they have been for the last months, years, decades. This wasn't an escalation, it was an inevitability.
Chef José Andrés, who runs the WCKitchen, and recently a vocal critic of Israel, was actually strongly defending them earlier. I saw someone call that Western naivety, but... is it simply being too naive, too trusting, when your good faith is only extended to one side? Isn't that just bias? Now Pelosi is signing a letter to stop weapon transfers to Russia when she was accusing protesters of being paid by Russia? Now, Western governments are saying this is too much?
I'll take any help we can get in stopping this onslaught, but these recent shifts came too late to save so many, including the WCKitchen workers. What changed for so many people now? We can't ignore why THIS was so many people's red line when tens of thousands of Palestinians weren't. Not only would it be an injustice to them but until this bias is interrogated how are we going to stop this or from repeating if the same wrong ass people are making the same decisions with the same worldview?

From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free.
For the week of January 21-28, Bisan Owda, a Palestinian journalist, has called for a global strike in support of a permanent ceasefire in Gaza. If you can, take the week off of work or school. Purchase only what you have to. Donate what you can to the cause. Attend protests. Purchase esims. Spread awareness. Whatever you can. Even if you can only do one or two of those things, it could make a much bigger difference than you think.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
A non-exhaustive list of ways that younger people could spread support for Palestine as well since most resource posts I see are primarily donations and protests, which not everyone would be able to participate in (it's still incredibly helpful to reblog posts like that, of course)
(not my post) How this strike could help even if it may not feel like it
If you see this post, you are encouraged to reblog with other sites where people could donate, more information about the strike and Gaza, and any news that could be relevant. From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free 🇵🇸

ARTISTS FOR PALESTINE 🇵🇸 - ROUND 2!! On the 16th and 23rd of March, I'll be doing art requests on stream with other notable artists to raise money for Operation Olive Branch and Project Watermelon.
This round's roster is very lucky to include notable webcomic artists like explodikid, Graveweaver, Curryuku and Speremint who respectively create Covenant, I'm The Grim Reaper, Not So Shoujo Love Story and Brimstone and Roses on WEBTOON. We also have Onstamonsta, an artist, streamer and Kiryu fan who Drawfee fans might recognise and the exceptionally talented Jessie Lam!
Last fundraising event was a great success, and I hope some of you might show up for this next round of streams. All money will be donated directly to Palestinian escape funds as the situation of Rafah is becoming exponentially worse (and if you'd like to donate directly, here's a link to a spreadsheet of over 750!)
As always, these fundraisers will always be available to watch over on my twitch channel. Thank you all and free Palestine!
