If you were wanting to buy "deny defend depose" merch or send money to pay for Mangione's legal fees, consider instead donating to the Innocence Project. Instead of sending letters to him (he's probably getting plenty already), consider writing another incarcerated person who doesn't have the same media coverage!
i think a lot of liberals need to confront the fact that they don’t actually believe everyone should have basic human rights. a homeless person could call me every slur under the sun and i would still want them to have housing, food, etc. the belief that everyone is entitled to basic human rights should not hinge on whether you “like” someone or not. at that point the entire ideology crumbles.
Dawg how are you 22 with a wife and kids you should be outside playing
The ceasefire agreement was reached and joy is floating among the Palestinian people
born to be chill, forced to be overthinking and anxious and overwhelmed and restless
Dear friends and compassionate supporters,
This is Eman Zaqout, from Occupied Gaza, Palestine. I am a Biotechnologist 🩸💉, and scientific researcher👩⚕️ contacting you at a really desperate moment.🍉
I am seeking your assistance to raise funds for saving our lives, facing the starvation in Gaza and help me achieve my doctoral degree dream after being awarded OWSD PhD Fellowship for inspirational women👩🎓
Just like any motivated and loving life woman, and for years, I poured my heart and soul into my work at Al-Shifa Hospital and Turkish Palestinian Friendship Hospital, as Biotechnology Specialist serving cancer patients with compassion and skill 💪✌

I also gave medical lectures to students at different universities and training centers in Gaza👇
As a result of my outstanding grades in my study and the excellent performance in my job, I have been a holder of different scholarship and I am active participant in many research visits and scientific missions👩🔬. The last scholarship as at McGill University in Canada three months ago before the starting of the genocide in Gaza💔
Forced to flee with nothing but the clothes on our backs, today, we find ourselves sheltering in a displacement camp lacking access to sanitation, medical supplies, food and drinkable water. I will not talk a lot about the dire and unbearable life we have to go through, as no word can express it fairly🥺😣
Meet 22 women who have been awarded the OWSD PhD Fellowship.
This genocide has been 11 months of hell and horror. We have reached a point where there is no hope left for us here in Gaza, where we are unfortunately just waiting for our turn to die.💔💔
I refuse to succumb to despair, holding on to the belief that brighter days lie ahead 🖤🤍💚💖
With your kindness and generosity🥺, I hope to survive the genocide and reclaim the path to achieving my doctorate 💉🩸
Your compassionate aid would mean the world to me and my family.🥺🙏🍉✌

Here are a few back to back. I will section them. These were written within the past 3 months. Pls be forgiving if there are errors. These were written in my notes app initially.
The Lamb
There was a blind lamb
That screamed and wailed for it's mother
For three days
For three nights
The lamb continued to wail with its eyes wide open
Scanning the endless night frantically
Unaware that it's calls were being answered by an empty, motionless field
Rather than who it needed
Monster in the Closet
I have always been afraid of the dark
I require a dimly lit, slowly overheating lamp to sleep
As late into the evening a monster stands in my doorway
It's back long and unending
Spikes stick out every angle of its head
It stands in semi-silence
Staring
I feel it's eyes upon me as I rest
In naught but a shirt
But my peripheral tells me that there is no monster
Just my mother, getting home from work
You Should Have Called Out
I made myself look pretty today
Just because you told me to
I did my hair, my makeup, ans a nice outfit
All before it was time to go
The only thing I hadn't done was greeted u when you arrived
Because you hadn't
Not yet at least
I sat on my bed with a wrinkle free comforter
But then it had been a while so I laid down
But when I woke up I was still alone and fully dressed
I couldn't smell my perfume anymore and my shirt was wrinkled
But I still waited
And fell asleep again, hungry
The Inability to Read Between the Lines
I'm sorry for whatever I have done to annoy you today
For talking to you too much
For speaking too loudly
For not being born a boy
I'm sorry mommy please don't yell at me
All I wanted was a hug
You won't look my way otherwise
So csn I have my hug?
How much more must I do before I am forgiven of the sins I've never been aware of?
How much longer must I wait on my knees for your judgment, mother?
What is so wrong with me that you csnt bear to even speak of it
My family is still staying in half of the church that wasn’t affected by the bombing because there is nowhere else to stay other than tents. They are limited to one small meal a day and one shower a week. They are sleeping on the floors, but no one can sleep since there is bombing everywhere around them. Even when there is no bombing, they can still hear the loud buzzing sound of the military planes above them, which would keep anyone who hears it awake. Along with everything, My grandma has diabetes and osteoporosis, so she can’t walk. She has to take her insulin medication along with many others; however, she has run out of many of her medications.” Am on my knees requesting for donation. Target $450
Please donate 🗣‼️
I hope you'll let me tell you a little bit about my home🇵🇸, Gaza🍉. It's a place where we're living through some very challenging times💔🥹. We're under attack from bombs, explosives, and warplanes, and we've had to endure many nights of sleeplessness. It's a difficult situation💔, but we're trying to stay positive🖤. This war has really taken a toll on us. It's destroyed our bodies, our lives, and our souls. It has been so sad to see our homes destroyed, our belongings taken from us, and our beautiful places ruined. It has also changed our situation for the worse. We were living a pretty good life, you know? Peaceful, loving, and full of life. But then, we found ourselves in a really tough spot. Hunger, fear, and terror have become our new normal. My kids and I, along with my extended family, are struggling to make ends meet. We don't have the basic necessities of life, and our living situation is pretty rough. We're in these old, falling-apart tents. It's so hard to know what to do when winter comes. We'll be soaked in the rain and wind, and I'll be at a loss as to how to keep my family safe, from the bombing and from the winter.🥹
I'm really hoping you can help me and my family to live through this awful war.💔🥹🍉

I call this one: makeup. I wrote it today. Please enjoy if u see fit
Every single day I cover up my eyebags with concealer and layer black poweder and liner underneath
Its to express myself, ill say
I just like how it makes me look, ill claim
When in reality, i lokk the same without it
The deepness of my eye bags with mascara on top makes it seem purposeful
A testament and a statement on the consequences of an idealistic, capitalist society
The reality is that i dont want anyone to know how little i sleep
I dont want them to know for certsin that these are not manmade scars, but the remants of a night spent working
Authentic, non generic, carved from labor, red bull, and yawns
I dont want them to know that despite my best efforts the eye bags are reaching farther than my makeup can cover
Theyre in my muscle, bone, and sinue
Four layers of concealer, setting powder and foundstion will never be enough to shake the fatigue from my skin
Some days, i dont wear makeup as i have foolishly decided that hiding my emotions is a stupid decision and the world must know what its done to my face
Yet
I always end the day covered in foundstion and blush because those around me can see right through me
How are you, theyll say
When was the last time you slept, theyll ask, meaning well, but all it really does is remind me that ill never be able to escape the hollow feeling inside of me that can only be filled with maybelline, a monster, ans maybe a warm meal
