Hello again Bluesky! I mostly use social media to crowdfund survival campaigns for people in Palestine and other afflicted areas of the world.

Are there any other fundraisers who would like to create a mutual share group? HMU!

Still not a Canva whiz, but hey. #FreePalestine #Volunteer #MutualAid #Canpoli #fundraiser

A graphic with the following elements: a circle with a picture of 3 children, with mostly the middle child visible. She is holding up a handmade sign that says "help me". The title of the graphic says "HELP IMAN", with this gofundme link below: https://gofund.me/a853e5c3. To the right of the title is a clip art pic of a flying Palestinian flag. Below the title is a light pink box that has the following text: FAMILY Iman, 5 small children, injured husband, Cat. To the left is a bright red arrow pointing right. Inside this arrow is black text that reads "ZERO new donations". Below these graphics is the text "I've been speaking to Iman for a year. she is one of the strongest, fiercest, most intelligent women I've ever met. She takes perfect care of her family but needs continued support." Below this block of text is a series of 9 flags - Palestine, Lebanon, Syria, Congo, Sudan, Uyghurs, Oman, Tigray, and Rohingya.

😥 My dearest friend Iman in #Gaza still has not received any new d0nations to her #fundraising campaign.

Don't forget that there's a 💫£5 pledge on every amount. So £5 becomes £10!

Please help her today. gofund.me/a853e5c3

PAJU-Montreal aims to bring together people of Palestinian and Jewish backgrounds, as well as Montrealer of different origins.

We are united by our common wish for justice and peace to prevail in the Palestinian land that has been devastated by the aggression of the Israeli army.

Since everyone has left X, there's much less engagement on my fundraising posts there. I'll have to bring them here & to cursed Threads as well. Sorry if it's not the sweet weird content we're looking for. Millions of people still need urgent help & are largely being ignored. #Palestine #fundraising

TBR, the Canadian government is fit for the pit.

I'm a nerd (or was) for midlist sci-fi/fantasy. But I feel disconnected - have any authors taken a pro-Palestine stance? My former fave author who writes about badass queer hijabi fighters said nothing. So disappointing. Fiction needs honesty. Any punks or loudmouths to recommend?

In 2025, stop worrying about what counts and doesn’t count and just read it all! Physical books, e-books, audiobooks, manga, comics, web novels, fiction, non-fiction, fan-fiction, all of it! Reading is reading and it’s all out there just waiting for you!

I started a fund to centralize donations for a few families in Palestine. Please give. Some people are currently eating grass to survive. chuffed.org/project/1182...

I have to help my eldest son advance 3 grades worth of French language competency by June 2025. I'm developing a tutoring curriculum and it's actually really fun.

I need to talk to a Rabbi... any anti-Zionist Rabbis or temples to recommend? Online or maybe even in or near #Montreal? #Judaism

You can't hum while pinching your nose shut. ...You just tried, didn't you?

A tooth carved from ivory. The two halves open up to reveal a scene from Hell. Complete with mini skulls, hellfire, and naked people wielding clubs.

What Twitter/X has become...

"The Tooth Worm as Hell's Demon,” 18th century. The two halves open up to reveal a scene about the infernal torments of a tooth worms which people believed caused cavities in the past. Complete with mini skulls, hellfire, and naked people wielding clubs. #skystorians

... tentatively resolved? Stay tuned.

I thought we had it solved but still blocked: Does anyone have a US bank account that can transfer to a #Palestinian bank account? A woman named Samah has been trying to get her GoFundMe $ for weeks. Three of us are trying to help but don't have banking capacity to send intl transfers easily.

Request filled, hooray!

I'm trying to help Samah, a mom of 2 in #Gaza, receive the funds from her #GoFundMe campaign. She needs someone with a UNITED STATES bank account. I can't help her the way she needs bc I'm in Canada. It's extremely urgent. Can someone help? C'mon, be financially punk rock...
