(Falling to my knees, begging, pleading)

Please.

Folks, seriously.

PLEASE.

Do not - and I can’t emphasize this enough - set the state on fire this weekend.

Fire danger is abnormally high this holiday weekend.

URGING you to consider firework alternatives:

- screaming “bang! boom!” at the sky

- dropping a stack of large books on the floor

- wrapping a toga around a candle

- play America the Beautiful while combining Coke and Mentos

"why can't they just be friends" not in the homophobic way but in the "their platonic relationship in the source material is far more dynamic and complex than the sanitized personalities they gain as a result of shipping" way

Hello everyone, I hope you’re all doing well.

A person named Reem sent me a DM asking if I could pin her story and put more of a spotlight on her fundraiser. So I’d like to go ahead and do just that, I’d like to tell you all a bit about her and her family. I hope that you could spare a moment to read about the Shehab family please.

The Shehab family is a group of 8: Reem, her husband Fahed, their young children Sahar, Dana, Mona, Malak, Yehya, and the children’s grandmother Mona. Sadly, all of them are currently trapped in Gaza amidst the dangers the Israeli occupation has brought and are attempting to evacuate to a safe place. 

They’ve faced many hardships from being displaced once again from their home in Gaza after it was bombed after already being displaced many other times before to having to deal with inhumane conditions and the constant threat of death and destruction looming over their heads.

Please take a moment to watch a video that Reem shared with me in which her daughter, Sahar, talks about and shows what they’ve been having to go through in Gaza:

What I’ve mentioned here from Reem's story barely scratches the surface of the struggles that the Shehab family is currently dealing with. I encourage you all to read Reem and her family’s full story on their GoFundMe page with love and care in your hearts for them.

I’ve heard about a lot of Palestinian users getting their accounts shadowbanned or flat out deleted, and unfortunately, Reem has been a victim of this and has had to use her daughter’s account to reach out to others. I encourage you all to follow @monashehab for updates on her and her family’s situation, and so that we can better support them.

This campaign is legit and has been verified by @el-shab-hussein (proof) and shared around by many others so please don’t hesitate to donate!

As of July 2, 2024 (8:19 AM EST), the Shehab family’s campaign is currently at €17,548 of €50,000.

If you all could spread the word about the Shehab family’s campaign and especially donate if you're able to please, it would be greatly appreciated. 

Let’s all do whatever we can to help Reem and her family! Please do whatever you can to bring attention to their fundraiser so that the family is able to get more donations and support! 

Every donation helps no matter how small, so let's all join together and do our best to help Reem and her family out. To Reem and the Shehab family, I wish you all the very best and hope that you reach your goal soon, God bless you all.

Remember, no one is free until we’re all free. Let’s remember to be kind and help each other. Thank you all in advance for your time and help, and I hope you all have a good day.

oh to one day live in a world that doesn't hinge on the whims of the united states of fucking america.

Dear Reader,🌹

I am Dr. Mohammed Aldeeb, a dedicated medical professional specializing in emergency care, hailing from the Gaza Strip. 🇵🇸 ✌🕊

For years, I poured my heart and soul into my work at Al-Shifa Hospital, tending to the wounded and the ailing with compassion and skill.😀

However, the ravages of war tore through our lives😓, forcing me to abandon my cherished home and the familiar walls of the hospital where I once found solace😥💔.

Leaving behind the echoes of laughter and camaraderie, I embarked on a painful journey southward, bidding farewell to the streets where I grew up😓💔, the corners where I sought refuge, and the colleagues who felt like family. Memories of my formative years and the countless lives I touched during my tenure at Al-Shifa and other medical facilities flooded my mind😥, as I struggled to come to terms with the sudden upheaval.

Despite the adversities that besieged me, I persevered in my pursuit of healing. My determination led me to Al-Azhar University, where I embraced the role of a teaching assistant, imparting knowledge to aspiring medical students with unwavering dedication. Dreams of specializing in internal medicine beckoned me back to Al-Shifa Hospital, but alas, the brutal onslaught of war reduced it to rubble, shattering my aspirations in its wake.

In the chaos and carnage of conflict, I sustained injuries, and the sanctuary of my home was obliterated, leaving my family and me destitute and displaced. Yet, amid the ruins, a flicker of hope persists. At Al-Aqsa Hospital, I continue to extend a helping hand to those in need, drawing strength from the resilience instilled in me through years of education and service.

Today, we find ourselves sheltering in a humble tent, stripped of our possessions and livelihoods. The loss of my job, my home, and the comforting presence of my loved ones weighs heavily on my heart. Nevertheless, I refuse to surrender to despair, clinging to the belief that brighter days lie ahead.

It is with a heavy heart that I reach out to you, dear reader, seeking assistance in securing safe passage for myself and my family from the turmoil of Gaza. With your kindness and generosity, I hope to reclaim the path to realizing my medical vocation, enabling me to provide for my loved ones and contribute to the healing of our wounded world.

Your compassionate aid would mean the world to me and my family.

With gratitude and hope,

Dr. Mohammed Aldeeb
