Mansour is 20 yo, & still has shrapnel in his body from Israel's attacks in '14. His family lost their home in the ongoing genocide. They're still starving, freezing, & sick under Israel's famine & siege. Please share or give to help them evacuate & rebuild their lives, Bsky restricts him as spam:

aboud also gave me permission to share the message he sent when the news of the ceasefire was announced. the joy is mixed with immense pain because of all that they lost & will continue to lose under occupation. please, please don't stop helping & fighting for palestinian liberation

two whatsapp messages

1: "Indeed, I, my mother, and my little sister survived this Holocaust, but I suffered a lot. I survived, my friends."

2: "On Sunday there will be a ceasefire, I can't believe that I survived this holocaust with Zeina and my mother, I still can't believe that 15 months we have been exterminated and dying and now we have reached the end of this war. I am crying I don't know what to say but I will write a book explaining everything all my sorrows and pains and my longing for my life before the war, for my destroyed home and for many of my family members that I lost. Please stay by my side even if the war ends so that we can turn the chapters of pain into hope. I love you a big hug leave me so I can cry a little on my pillow 💔"

The preceding text is on a square slide with a pale yellow background with a scattering of tiny stars in faded teal, mustard, and pink. The title is written in a pine green brush-stroke font that is outlined in tangerine red.

In the center of the slide is a large cupcake. To the left is a scale of dollar amounts labeled in green with horizontal arrows in tangerine pointing to the cupcake. There are arrows for every thousand dollars with $0 at the bottom and $5,000 at the top of the cupcake. Until approximately a little more than a fifth above the one-thousand dollar mark the cupcake holder is a bright mustard tan color. The rest of the cupcake holder and frosting is in faded colors to indicate that those dollar amounts have not been reached yet.

To the right of the cupcake is a pale peach orange swoopy call-out box outlined in green. The amount raised is written in a black brush stroke font inside the box. Just below the box Thank you is written in a tangerine sans serif font following the concave curve of a swoop.

The info about the fundraiser is centered below the cupcake. Old Cow Creative dot com is written in a pine green sans serif font and the rest of the text is in a black sans serif font.

aboud has been messaging me about the ceasefire; he is crying from gladness at having survived this far, but is also distraught at all he has lost & that he has not raised enough to get the eye surgery he desperately needs in egypt. the ceasefire CANNOT be the end of our support for folks in gaza

aboud is 23 years old, and he's taken on a burden no young person should have to: he's helping keep his year-old sister, his 18-year-old brother, and his parents alive under genocide. beyond daily survival costs, he needs to save up for an urgent eye surgery www.gofundme.com/f/urgent-fun...

Colossal, historic crimes are underway in Gaza. And the true, full toll — all the mortality not just from bullets and bombs but from disease and exposure and hunger and debilitation — is utterly unknown yet dreadfully enormous.
