The Sameer Project (@sameerproject) is transparent, diligent & respectable. They routinely provide detailed updates with evidence of their expenditure & work. They cannot help everyone in Gaza, but do a remarkable job & attacking them will only harm the many in Gaza they help.

When my rapist was sentenced, his lawyer said it was in injustice that I had done well in life and that my rapist was just in love with me. So I took a disciplinary case against him and won. But I shouldn’t have had to fight so hard. The system should do the work, not survivors.

Yikes….
James Gunn and Peter Safran will no longer run DC Studios.
Jeremy Latcham, who previously served as a producer at Marvel Studios, is taking over DC.

Men used to have muses. Men used to be patrons of the arts. Y'all wanna "invest" in shit like bitcoin instead of tithing to beauty and that's why God doesn't talk to you anymore

There’s an entire generation of people who have never experienced the emotional roller coaster of burning a CD and having it fail at 98.7%

🚨⬇️ “We can’t sink into helplessness. Help us get families out of the floodwater & into shelter that can actually protect them. Please urgently donate whatever you can & share this appeal. Every contribution brings another family closer to having somewhere safe & dry to sleep”
Gaza is DROWNING. And this should make us angry, furious and outraged!
🚨Urgent support needed 🚨 chuffed.org/project/113222-t…
Overnight, thousands of tents collapsed under the storm, with dozens of displacement camps now completely underwater. The rain is expected to continue until Monday.
This is the FOURTH winter that Palestinians in Gaza have faced under genocide. After years of bombardment, displacement and destruction, families who have already lost their homes are now watching their only remaining shelter collapse under the rain.
Think about what that means: parents trying to keep their children dry, families desperately trying to salvage their belongings from floodwater, people who have already been displaced repeatedly being left with nowhere safe to go.
There is something profoundly wrong with a world in which people are forced to fight this hard for the basic right to shelter. They should never have been put in this position.
The Sameer Project is already replacing dozens of destroyed tents and arranging truckloads of sand to help absorb water in flooded camps. But the need is far greater than our current resources.
We urgently need funding to provide higher-quality, more durable tents. These cost $700, compared to $200 for lower-quality alternatives. Many families are refusing the cheaper tents because they know they will likely break again. We are also looking to buy hundreds of tarps and blankets. They cannot keep starting from nothing every time a storm hits.
We are asking you to help us do something tangible. We can’t sink into helplessness. Help us get families out of the floodwater and into shelter that can actually protect them.
We cannot stop the storm, but we can refuse to stand by while families face it without protection.
Please urgently donate whatever you can and share this appeal. Every contribution brings another family closer to having somewhere safe and dry to sleep: chuffed.org/project/113222-t…

What Gaza is experiencing right now is another form of cruelty. Donations needed urgently: chuffed.org/project/113222-t…
Feel the cold. Feel your soaked clothes cling to your skin. The floodwater is up to your knees, and there’s nowhere to run, nowhere to get dry. No where to sleep or to comfort your crying and wet children. And the rain keeps coming.
This is what families in Gaza are living through right now. It’s our duty to show you what’s happening. It’s your duty to spread it. And all of us need to help.
Share this. Give to The Sameer Project’s Winter Campaign today by donating to our General Fund: chuffed.org/project/113222-t… These families depend on us not looking away, sharing their suffering, and taking action.

⚠️ Palestinian Health Minister Dr. Majed Abu Ramadan:
“What is happening in Gaza is not a passing winter crisis. I urgently call on the international community, the United Nations, and health, humanitarian, and relief organizations to intervene immediately to save the lives of hundreds of thousands of displaced people in the Gaza Strip, following the flooding of thousands of tents with rainwater and the absence of basic safe shelter conditions.
I warn of a catastrophic deterioration in health and environmental conditions, alongside growing risks of the spread of diseases and epidemics.”
