The massacre in Jenin is horrific but just the sight of bodies being left on the street because no ambulances/paramedics can get to them since Israel has been blocking them from reaching areas of the refugee camp…yeah there aren’t any words. Literally what can you even say

Update: now the iof is calling for the evacuation of Jenin Refugee camp - Palestinian families are being forced to leave. Colonizers doing what they do best

timesofgaza & eyeonpalestine & onlinepaleng have been posting about this live all day, please keep an eye on those accounts for updates

I think this is a good time as any to remind you that a little goes a long way. I implore you guys to please donate to Palestine. They have been facing hardships and violence at the hands of the Israelis since the occupation of their homeland started in 1948. Innocent people are being robbed of their homes, their lives, their dignity, and are helpless against it all.

Linked below are a few charities and organizations working to provide relief in the area. Please consider offering whatever you can.

emergency abortion for a Black abuse survivor!!!

Hi, my name is Fern. I live in a state where abortion is illegal this is seriously a last resort for me so please share if you can't donate. my friend suggested twitter and tumblr since he's seen other people raise funds here. Last week I made the difficult decision to leave an abusive relationship. I stayed longer than I should because of finances, but now I'm stuck with an unwanted pregnancy. I'm still in school and financially unable to support a child. I asked my parents for help but they are apposed to abortion and are recommending I carry to term but I'm not ready for that. I'm panicking and scared.

I really need help, mostly for getting to and from the nearest location that I can get a surgical abortion done, as it's already too late for me to try the pill method. I tried to do the pill method last week but I didn't make the appointment. At 10 weeks now I'm forced to have a surgical abortion and the nearest location is 4 and a half hours away.

I need help getting there and back since I don't have a reliable vehicle so I might need to pay a friend to drive me. I also need to pay for some of the cost of the abortion, which is around 700.

I will also be using the donations to get this procedure done, and paying for mscellaneous stuff like the gas money, drinks and food for the drive, an oil change probably, and post surgery healing items such as a heating pad, midol, comfort items, pads.. Thank you for taking the time to read this, this is incredibly urgent so please share if you can't donate.

goal: 800 KOFI LINK CASH APP: $scoobysnacks2002 note: I'll also do art commissions (you can check out my style at my insta) but be warned it might take a little while since I'm dealing with this.

They are not as high-profile as the WGA, but I would like to bring everyone's attention to the imminent strike action by thousands of hotel workers in Los Angeles. They are set to go on strike tomorrow, July 1st, 2023.

More than 15,000 hotel workers are seeking higher pay, better benefits, and working conditions. This includes an across-the-board $5 an hour raise, as well as affordable healthcare and better pensions. They also are seeking a ban on the use of E-Verify, which is used to deny employment to undocumented workers and workers involved with the criminal justice system. You can follow what is happening at their Twitter.

Happy disability pride month + c*nada day, from ya fave Crippled First Nations gal. 💫🙆‍♀️

I have two MRI's and two Xrays this month because my degenerative disease is suspected to have spread into my kidneys and spine just from visual examination and palpating me, but my specialists want to confirm its my disease and not something new! I also, have an appointment with my maxilliofacial surgeon this month, for a regular follow up for my jaw bone tumor treatment!

That's going to be KILLER on me, whos on ODSP/disability in gas costs.

Can we help this sick ndn gal raise some cash to help her get to and from her doctors this month 🙇‍♀️

when internet people are like “i love gothic literature but i hate anything that discusses incest, sexual violence, oppression, misogyny, abuse, torture, gore, murder, or death”

no actually me and everyone else who’s ever watched crimson peak were brainwashed by guillermo del toro into believing that incest and violence are cool and awesome. sorry

Horrifying that this pearl-clutching over horror actually being dark is unironically becoming A Thing…

[ID: Tweets from Emily 'Soup Lesbian' Gwen (@theemilygwen) on twitter with the following text:

Well, just left a job interview crying because the hiring manager told me they liked my application but were disappointed that I didn't bother dressing appropriately. I tried to explain that I haven't been able to afford new clothes in years but I just couldn't handle it.

That comment and my reaction was one of the most mortifying moments of my life. I thought I put together a decent outfit for the job with what I had, and hearing her say that just destroyed me.

Anyway I'm still looking for work and struggling a lot. Even $5 would help pay for a meal. ko-fi.com/emilygwen

Please help Emily Gwen, the creator of the lesbian flag. If you show me that you donated any amount I will draw you something. You can also support them by buying something from their Threadless store!
