sorry i'm being an absent friend i'm being an absent self too
Dear Friends,
My name is Laila, and I am writing to you from a place of deep despair. The conflict in Gaza has forced us from our home, and we now find ourselves in Khan Younis, struggling to survive. My mother is pregnant, and her life is in grave danger.
I feel utterly helpless and overwhelmed by our situation. There are moments when I wish for my own suffering to end, but my only hope now is to save my mother. I have started a campaign to raise funds for her evacuation and medical care.
Please, I beg you to share our campaign on your social media platforms. Your help can make a difference and give my mother a chance to live.
Thank you for your compassion and support.❤️🙏🏼
Sincerely,
"this fundraiser is vetted by nabulsi, fallahifag, el-shab-hussein, ibtisams, sayruq"

reblog to bonk the person you reblogged it from with a hollow cardboard tube
you are not a wasteland you just need ibuprofen and a hot bath and a shower and a nutritious meal and some water and some fresh air and to do something productive and to do something creative and to do something that takes physical exertion and to do something social
@danashehab has been fundraising since may and is just over €15,000 away from their goal l. as stated in the screenshot people are starting to believe the rafah crossing will open so it’s important to make sure everyone has the funds in case they are allowed to evacuate.
thee shehab family consists of dana (13), sahar (14), mona (9), malak (5), yehya (1.5), fahed, (38), reem (32), and grandmother mona (60). they have been shadowbanned and deleted a few times. you can also find this family at @monashehab
The family has had to raise their goal to cover their extended family’s evacuation fees since they are unable to make a new GFM.
The new goal is €85,000.

do you ever feel like you're being left behind?
rapidly approaching my mid twenties has made me think of my position in this life. still living at home, still single, still working in a job that requires no real skill, all these things I've done in my teenage years of studying hard, getting good grades to get myself out there, get an upper hand and here I am.
having a place on my own is too expensive, not feeling like anyone is capable of loving you for who you are, not feeling like I can take the plunge and go for a job I'd be passionate about.
there's nothing in my life that spurs interest, I wake up, go to work, come home, sleep. day in, day out. its a never ending cycle that I can't seem to break out of.
I've been finding myself falling into longer disassociative episodes more often, because I simply can't find any reason to be in my own body and mind because life is so mind numbingly boring.
maybe I should move out, maybe I should date, maybe I should change jobs, maybe I should get back into my old hobbies... maybe.
