a friend just tipped me off about Fund a Kitchen in Gaza, a free tool that helps you locate and donate to community kitchens currently serving some of Gaza's most vulnerable!

this lets you choose a region (south, central, north) and see which kitchens operate in that area, then donate to as many as you can.

as a reminder, community kitchens try to buy and cook in bulk, which makes ingredients last longer & sustain more people in the conditions of extreme scarcity that Israel is imposing right now. they are also able to serve people on the ground who may not have the means to reach out online.

so, whether through this tool or not, please do support community kitchens, as well as mutual aid groups that cover additional needs, such as the Sameer Project (meals, tents, cash aid, medical aid) and Dahnoun Mutual Aid (meals, tents, baby supplies, cash aid, winter clothes).

Why was it a universal experience for people who were teenagers in the 2010s to have a way older online friend who would use you as emotional support and would be suicidal every other day. And you’d be eating dinner with family pretending to be normal while your significantly older online friend was going through a crisis over text. I’m still not even close to the average age they were and I literally can’t imagine doing that in a million years

Help Two Disabled Trans Women Survive the Holidays, Finally Move Out of Mold Hell, and Get a Fresh Start

Basically, my wife and I need to move as soon as possible. Our apartment is a death trap to stay in and our landlord is annually billing us thousands in extra heating bills because of the leaky moldy windows and shitty construction.

Multiple tenants keep contacting him regarding mold and window installation, but he just shrugs it off, does some shoddy contract work or mold removal, and charges us for it. (for reference the balcony door with the shelf was installed less than 4 years ago, 1½ years after we moved in, when the last one wouldn't close).

On top of debt from unforeseen utility bills, they slapped us with an "extra heating expenditure bill" covering all of last year and tried to charge the extra 11000dkk onto that month's rent. We managed to get them to generously negotiate a 3-month payment plan instead and they agreed (raising our rent further). The very next week they informed us that they're suddenly raising our annual base rent by almost 900dkk and monthly heating bill by 825dkk, meaning we're currently paying over $1500 a month for a frigid mold-infested shit hole that leaves us with almost nothing to actually live off.

Please I'm begging someone to get us out of this place, it actually killing both of us after living here for almost 6 years. We're both feeling it heavily affecting our health (like my wife having to be hospitalized multiple times due to pulmonary/respiratory issues, our terrible immune systems and the constant coughing with black specks in our phlegm).

Any donations people are kind enough to share are going towards moving-out costs, damages incurred to this apartment in the 6 years we've lived here (we're both psychotic), any landlord-move-out-bullshittery they will undoubtedly try to get away with (the housing union we live in is notorious for this kind of behavior) and helping towards the new apartments security deposit/first month's rent

heeeey i am super fucked financially due to being in a car wreck on 11/22 ! i was holding off on making this for as long as i could but with medical and car bills piling up i need help 🥲

a summary:

  • we were t-boned in my car while i was the passenger
  • car quickly became un-drivable, having to hold the wheel at an angle to drive straight due to the frame being bent, the wheel on the side that was hit popping, and the door that was hit becoming unable to close. collision deductible is $495
  • estimated repair time at the moment is 3 weeks from drop off this past tuesday. attached is my rental reservation to get me just to 12/6 ($731.21) because that was all i had and i do not live in town so dont have the ability to bus/uber to work and do have to unfortunately get a rental
  • because of the way i was turned in my seat i strained my lower back and subluxated a rotator cuff tendon. im fairly useless at work so im not able to take on overtime at the moment, plus will have to take days off to accommodate pt when that starts. bill was $264.71 for this visit, xrays, ultrasound. unsure how much pt my insurance covers

PLEASE reblog, if you can please donate. still have regular bills to pay on top of all of this happening

editing an older add on to compile receipts:

  1. extending rental until 12/10
  2. medical bill from recheck on 12/8
  3. hit a deer with my rental on 12/12 which will require a $500 deposit at time of rental drop off

hello i havent updated this since someone helped me break even i was petsitting a lot over the holidays. unfortunately i STILL have this rental car because my actual car is not ready despite the original date or completion being 12/18 🥲

update on that via my gf the most recent compilation of rental bills:

i could only afford to extend it until 1/17 which has left me with $15, so if anyone could help i would really appreciate it

$25/1,420 (cost of these last 4 rental extensions)

While most of the world is celebrating the new year, Mahmoud (@ma7moudgaza2) is worried about the children in his family. His family consists of 20 people and it breaks his heart to see the children cold and hungry. He wishes to provide medical aid, milk, and diapers for the children to protect them from diseases. It is winter, the temperature is freezing, and basic necessities like bread and flour are expensive and hard to obtain.

Mahmoud is a 20-year-old uni student from northern Gaza. His house has been bombed, he and his family are now displaced, and the genocide has taken so many family members and loved ones from him. He has survived the Al-Shifa Hospital massacre where he and his family were besieged for 2 days without food or water as the hospital's perimeter was bombed.

Vetted! This campaign has been vetted by el-shab-hussein!

$23,089 USD raised of $35K target

As we enter 2025, Palestinians in Gaza are entering their second calendar year of genocide. They have been suffering unimaginable hardships for 455 days now. Please do not forget Gaza. Please share their stories and donate if you can!

Ignoring me means you agree to kill me, my child and my family, I am Hadeel from Gaza 🍉 My husband was killed and I became a widow in this war and my child is an orphan, my mother and I are now homeless, we have been displaced more than 14 times, my child needs milk and diapers every day and I cannot provide them, we are 13 people who need water and food, understand the suffering we are going through and give us 💰 Please talk about my story and write about it to help us survive

Please, after my first campaign was stolen, this campaign I created a short time ago was documented, but it was never published. Please respond to me and help me spread the word. Please donate to us even if it is five dollars, do not ignore us I beg you

Not to be like “we live in a society” but I think a lot of people’s mental health would be significantly less fucked if they didn’t have to function in a system that forces them to think about their value as a human being as based on how productive they are/how much money people can make off them
