The Christopher Columbus statue was vandalized overnight in Providence, RI. It’s been all over my local news today.

I approve of these vandals.

Science is spiritual!

Learning how the world works doesn’t strip it of magic, it reveals even more of it. The more I understand the universe, the more sacred it feels.

My sister is running out of time. Her condition worsens while treatment is delayed because I cannot afford it. Every ignored post is another hour of pain. Please donate—your help could save her life.

I'm Youssef from Gaza.

I'm a father of three young children: Lana, Abdul Karim, and Adam.

Our tent flooded, and the cold seeped into my children's bones until they fell ill.

I watch them shivering before me, with no roof to protect them and no fire to warm them.

This isn't a plea for charity… this is a plea for help.

We need £10,000 immediately to buy a caravan that will end this suffering.

Every minute of delay means more pain for a sick child.

If you have compassion in your heart, donate now.

If you can't, don't remain silent… spread the word, because silence here is cruel.

Guys,

Strong winds and severe weather have torn apart and blown away many displacement tents across different areas of the Gaza Strip. Partially destroyed homes, already weakened by previous bombardment, have collapsed under the force of the storm. This suffering returns with every storm, and life grows harsher for families in Gaza under this bitter cold.

People are left in the streets after their tents were ripped apart. Others are drowning in rainwater.

Is anyone hearing the sound of the wind besides us?

Is anyone drowning in the rain other than Gaza’s children?

Is anyone freezing from the cold besides Gaza’s children?

While children around the world sleep in warmth and safety, completely removed from this brutal cold.

In the midst of this harsh reality, I’m asking you to stand with us.

Any help, no matter how small, can mean warmth, safety, or survival through another unbearable night.

Hate it when TikTok farm cosplayers and cottagecore types say stuff like "I'm not going to use modern equipment because my grandmothers could make do without it." Ma'am, your great grandma had eleven children. She would have killed for a slow cooker and a stick blender.

I’ve noticed a sort of implicit belief that people used to do things the hard way in the past because they were tougher or something. In reality, labor-saving devices have historically been adopted by the populace as soon as they were economically feasible. No one stood in front of a smoky fire or a boiling pot of lye soap for hours because they were virtuous, they did it because it was the only way to survive.

My daughter is very sick. Her chest has been hurting since she inhaled the smoke and chemicals from nearby missile strikes. The exposure has severely affected her lungs and breathing, and we urgently need medical treatment to help her recover.

We are struggling to afford the necessary care. If you can support us in any way — through donations, sharing this message, or guiding us to medical aid — it would mean the world to us.

Please help my daughter

Thank you from the bottom of my heart

We heard in the weather forecast that there will be heavy rain in Gaza tomorrow, Friday and Saturday, and I've been trying since this morning to buy wood and tent covers so I don't get flooded by the rainwater.

It's very expensive, and all the solutions are temporary; there are no permanent solutions except for the house.

My tent shakes a lot in the wind and blows away – and that's just from the wind, so what will it be like in a low-pressure system?

To everyone, I say please donate and share this post.

Today's target is 52.490/52.900🙏🙏🫂

My friends, I appeal to your humanity. I want you to save me from the tent, please. We are freezing from the cold. I don't want to spend the winter in the tent, please.

Most of you think that the people in Gaza are finally relieved.

No.

They are NOT.

Have any real temporary shelters been allowed in?

Tents? Blankets? Mattresses?

Clothes for families, especially for the children?

It’s November and the weather is getting cold. Kids barely have enough clothes and shoes.

But no one is thinking about any of this, especially those who want to implement a “peace plan.”

No!!!!! It not in their mind because they do not see us as humans.

No dignity. No justice. No peace.

Israel opposes the opening of the Rafah crossing, which was scheduled to open tomorrow, Wednesday. This is the first violation of the agreement.

If a ceasefire holds, you boycott Israel HARDER, you divest, you push for sanctions. You don't perform for apartheid. You don't whitewash genocide. You don't pretend like Israel isn't still a violent occupier stealing land and collectively punishing Palestinians daily

Hello friends, I am Abdullah Salem Abdullah Jaafar, 26 years old, a graduate of the University College with a degree in Information Technology - Multimedia. I used to have a beautiful family; I’m married and have four children, and my wife is pregnant.

I previously worked at a multimedia company, but because of the war, I lost my job, my home, my car, and now I have no place to live or work.

During the war, we were forced to evacuate more than four times. Each time, we had to leave everything behind without taking any of our personal belongings.

I live in northern Gaza.

We were displaced to southern Gaza, then to Deir al-Balah, then to Rafah, and now we live in an uninhabitable tent that is not suitable for living.

My daughter Rahaf was martyred in the war due to Israeli airstrikes. Now I have Iman, Malak, Basel, and my wife is in her seventh month of pregnancy.

Please, I am in desperate need of your help just to provide food and water for my children.

I lost my home and we have become homeless."

Please Help my family 🙏

✅️Vetted by @gazavetters, my number verified on the list is ( #672 )✅️

I am Shams from Gaza, 17 years old, a girl from a family of 7. I was in my first year of high school before the war. I loved my family, my school, my friends, and life itself. But the war came and took everything I loved away.

The days have passed filled with loss and hunger. We no longer go to school—education has stopped, my school and home were bombed, and now my sister, her four daughters, and I all live in a single room.

We are struggling just to find a bite to eat, to have a roof that protects us from rain, rocket shrapnel, and the smell of gunpowder. Time passed, and I was supposed to take my final exams this year, but the war took away our right to education in every way.

We are facing the worst living conditions—insanely high prices for food, cleaning supplies, and medicine. We are displaced after losing our home. My father was injured while trying to find food; he suffers from a herniated disc in his back.

We are truly in need of help. Life here is almost impossible, and the conditions are extremely harsh. Please help me secure shelter, food, medical care, and at least a livable situation. A little from you can make a big difference.

❗This pain 😖will end one day.We will heal our wounds 🤕and move forward. 👨‍👩‍👦‍👦

Just as I struggled with my husband before to build my family and home, I will rebuild my family and home again.

a mother of four children.

I know I am burdening you with a request for help, but all doors have been closed in front of us.

We returned from displacement... only to find my house completely destroyed and burned.

Now, my family and I are homeless. I lost my small project, and my husband lost his job because of this war.

We no longer own anything, except for our hope in God and your compassionate hearts.💖

My children are suffering from severe malnutrition and lack of medicine; their teeth and bones can no longer bear the pain.

And now we are in a danger zone, threatened with evacuation, as shells fall near us, and we cannot flee due to the high cost of transportation.

We barely receive donations of $5, which is hardly enough for a loaf of bread for my little daughter. Our situation has become pitiable. If each of you donates $25, it will make a difference for my devastated family.

Things are getting worse because we don't have anything to eat, A few days ago I found out that I was pregnant I need vitamins and healthy food please help us

Now we have left our city and my children and I are living in the safe areas (Al-Mawasi). I live in a tent in the intense heat without food or cooking gas, and finding water is very difficult. Even internet services are difficult. I cannot communicate and ask for help. Please, life here is unbearable. Help my family.

We are approaching two long years under this brutal war 💔.

A forced displacement pushes the people of Gaza south, crowded into a small area in Al-Mawasi — where diseases and epidemics are spreading 🦠.

As I wait to enter my sixth month of pregnancy 🤰, I collapsed into unconsciousness due to the lack of healthy food.

I was diagnosed with anemia and I still suffer from severe dizziness and rapid heartbeat 💓.

I urgently need healthy food and supplements to keep going and to protect my unborn baby.

Even my eldest daughter, Amal 💔, lost her eyeglasses a year and a half ago when our tent was burned.

I saw her holding back her tears because of the headaches caused by her corneal deviation and not having glasses 👓.

Her eyesight is worsening, while all we can afford is barely bread for survival 🍞.

Our campaign is moving very slowly ⏳.

We desperately need your strong support 🙏💔.

Please, help us in this ordeal — every bit of your support can save me and my children from despair.
