Folks are dying of stress or in the streets because so little help comes to the mutual aid community because fascists decided it was going to be a bad word, just like they decided masks were going away, and it spread. Choose right now to save those of us in need with a bit of pay it forward energy!

We have the UNPRECEDENTED ability to stop fascism from ending folks from it because we can directly fund their survival, meds, rent, food, escape & joy. The discomfort some feel seeing folks plead for help that causes them to scroll instead of boost or raise funds has left us for dead. Do GOOD!

It’s not just the fact establishment is anti intellectual or anti education Brexit and tories said we had enough of experts Labour when in power under Blair and Brown disregarded experts over sex works , wmd and drugs Contempt for education runs deep

Seems deliberate Hence attack on humanities and social science after Jason arday See also people posting about lack of graduate jobs Then there is fact people bemoan that graduates aren’t ready for work

They hate universities Reform , Labour and conservatives Why else would they destroy local economies and wreck one of the biggest sources of soft power? They decided it would be expedient to cut student visas to appease racists and now act surprised

Can I perhaps have some tips from my other autistic friends? I have worn Wayfarers and nothing else for about 20 years. I'm genuinely worried people will start on me in public because of these cunts. Any recs for something similar in terms of weight/quality/comfort etc. I'm annoyingly autistic 😭

Ms. Deathwish #Exist2Resist@msdeathwish.bsky.social · yesterday

I fucking hate it because Wayfarers are nearly the only sunglasses I have found that are reliably comfortable and dark enough for my pathetic autistic eyes. How did they make something so timeless and cool into this?? LOOK WHAT THEY DID TO MY BOY 😭😭😭😭😭😭

I have talked with Lina directly. She is under an agonizing amount of pressure each day, watching Mahmoud and their children suffer and trying to bear the weight of every need without anyone else standing by her side. Please at least share this request, even if you can't donate. 💚

🚨 We are begging you, please save Mahmoud. 🙏 His condition is rapidly deteriorating, and he is in unbearable pain. Please don’t let Mahmoud die. He urgently needs medication and surgery to save his legs and his life. His daughters need their father. Help Mahmoud survive😭💔 chuffed.org/project/omsham

Mahmoud’s condition is deteriorating rapidly. His body is filled with shrapnel, and his legs have missing bones. He urgently needs surgeries, medication, X-rays, scans, cultures, and blood tests. He is suffering from widespread infections and severe swelling. Please help me save him.

My soul is breaking! Gaza is stealing my son Elias's eyes. Darkness is swallowing his gentle vision, and time has run out. Without immediate surgery, he will be blind forever. I am begging on my knees—save my boy's sight before night claims him! Verified : molly shah✅ chuffed.org/project/1624...

Elias when he was very young, sleeping on a hospital bed with his mouth open while a doctor is controlling his vitals with their hand on his left arm.

With all this concern over disposable barbecues and fires, my dad mentioned Gulf Stream which is yet another concern and fact we could experience also or instead extreme cold here

🚨The child Omar's condition is very serious; he has lost 2 Killua of weight in the last few weeks He suffers from severe malnutrition; his body is deteriorating day by day, and whenever he tries to walk, he falls to the ground His life depends on your support 🙏🏼🙏🏼donate🙏🏼👇 tinyurl.com/4rdnwyzx

Omar lying on his side with his eyes closed. He is wearing a hospital gown and covered with a fuzzy blanket, and there is a hand on his forehead and side.

🚨🇵🇸👇🏿 Soad has appealed to you with all the meanings of humanity, and pleaded with you with the heart of a mother who could no longer bear to see her child suffering before her Omar is a patient who lost 2 kilograms of weight They need $180 to buy his medication and vitamins. tinyurl.com/4rdnwyzx

Suad, a young Palestinian woman in a purple hijab, taking a selfie with her young son Omar as he holds a peace sign over his head. There is the rubble of a destroyed building behind them.

💔 Ahmed is still fighting for his life in the ICU. His tiny body is exhausted, and every hour without treatment brings us closer to losing him. Please don’t let his story end here. Even £5 can help keep him alive. Donate or share before it’s too late. Please help us. 🙏💔 chuffed.org/project/1905...
