Urgent Appeal: Help My Family Before the New Year

My name is Ahmed, and I am asking for your help. My family – my parents, brothers, and sons – are in a desperate situation after our home was destroyed in an airstrike in Gaza. We are now sheltering in a flimsy tent, exposed to the cold and rain, with no food, clothing, or shelter to survive the coming days.

My sister-in-law is nine months pregnant and is severely malnourished and anemic. She is weak and vulnerable, and we have nothing to prepare for the baby due in a few days.

We urgently need to raise $15,000 by the beginning of the new year to provide us with the basics: food, warmth, and a safe place to stay.

Your support, no matter how small, can make a life-changing difference. Together, you can help my family and start the new year with hope and dignity.

Your kindness today may bring us safety, warmth, and a chance to heal.

SERVICE DOG PSA

So today I tripped. Fell flat on my face, it was awful but ultimately harmless. My service dog, however, is trained to go get an adult if I have a seizure, and he assumed this was a seizure (were training him to do more to care for me, but we didn’t learn I had epilepsy until a year after we got him)

I went after him after I had dusten off my jeans and my ego, and I found him trying to get the attention of a very annoyed woman. She was swatting him away and telling him to go away. So I feel like I need to make this heads up

If a service dog without a person approaches you, it means the person is down and in need of help

Don’t get scared, don’t get annoyed, follow the dog! If it had been an emergency situation, I could have vomited and choked, I could have hit my head, I could have had so many things happen to me. We’re going to update his training so if the first person doesn’t cooperate, he moves on, but seriously guys. If what’s-his-face could understand that lassie wanted him to go to the well, you can figure out that a dog in a vest proclaiming it a service dog wants you to follow him

I know this is going to make me sound pretensions but I have to get it off my chest. I feel an unimaginable rage when someone posts a photo and is like "this picture looks like a renaissance painting lol" when the photo clearly has the lighting, colors and composition of a baroque or romantic painting. There are differences in these styles and those differences are important and labeling every "classical" looking painting as renaissance is annoying and upsetting to me. And anytime I come across one of those posts I have to put down my phone and go take a walk because they make me so mad

There's nothing wrong with Hooters per se, but only a deeply sexually repressed society would be capable of producing Hooters. It's wild that it existed alongside Applebee's and Chilli's. Yeah man let's go to the psychosexual chicken wing place.

Call Call🌍✨

I live now with my child, whom I loved the most difficult days of our lives, I gave birth to him in difficult days full of fear everywhere, full of explosions and disasters that surround us from materials contaminated in explosives.

I suffer from dehydration because of malnutrition that devoured our bodies, me and my child

We need vitamins and medicines to recover our health, which is almost collapsing.

Help us by bringing help for me and for my baby, please, I beg you to help me and my child.

All we have is you are the only ones who can help

Don't let us die from the famine that surrounds us, we barely survived this disaster

My child and I need the expenses we need to recover what we have lost from our health. Don't let us and go. You are the one who determines our destiny.

I hope for help

How You Can Help Us Cross the Finish Line Even the smallest act of kindness can make a difference:

• 5£ may seem small, but for us, it's a little relief, a moment of comfort, and a reminder that kindness still exists.

• Can't donate? Reblog this post to help us reach someone who can. Every share matters more than you know.

The war is back again.

Dear, we in Gaza are now subjected to genocide and the execution of young men, women, and children.

We in Gaza are subjected to persecution, violence, hunger, and pain.

We in Gaza see our children dying before our eyes, and we cannot even hug them and bury them.

The pain increases day after day. 💔💔

Houses and tents are being bombed, even hospitals have not been spared.

We are now in danger of death. We are forced to flee from our current location to a safer place for our children. Please, I beg you, help us. We do not want to lose our children in this war. We have lost everything we own. All that remains is our exhausted souls. We want a safe life. We do not want to die.

"i wish i had cancer/a wheelchair/severe disability so i would be taken seriously." so you've automatically assumed that these people are taken seriously or treated well (which they aren't) without even thinking about it huh. the assumed premise undermines your very point. if you took these people seriously then you wouldn't idly wish to have their struggles
