There is very bad news, my friends, which is the resumption of the war on Gaza and the end of the ceasefire. The occupation is randomly targeting civilians, the crossings have been closed for a month, goods are very expensive, and the people of Gaza are living through the worst phase of their lives now. The number of victims in one day has reached 430 martyrs, and the situation is very, very difficult. Donate whatever you can, even if it is just a little money, to help us and save us from this genocide.🙏🏻
A Plea for Help from Gaza: A Family Seeking Safety
Hello, I am Ahed Al-Bashiti, son of a family of 7 members.
We live in the midst of the ongoing hellish war in Gaza, trapped between walls of fear and despair.
We struggle daily to survive in an environment filled with threats and dangers.
My father and brothers lost our only source of income and our house was destroyed and we are now homeless 💔
We urgently appeal for your moral and financial assistance to cover the necessary costs for escaping to a safe environment, where we can build a better future for our children and ensure our family's safety.
We are in desperate need of your support. Any donation, no matter how small, can help save our lives. Thank you for your attention and support during these harsh times.
OMG!! siku pfp and banner!! are you a kikuo fan?
yes, well i havent listened to them jn a while, but i was a big fan of the kikohana album and i love siku's art!!!
basically, not all of us people with eds are hypermobile, and we shouldnt reduce ehlers danlos to just being hypermobile with stretchy skin.
I have hEDS, the most common type of EDS, where you do get hypermobility, but even hEDS is more than that.
i really wish that ehlers-danlos syndrome wasn't basically just thought of as the "bendy" disorder. firstly, there are more than 13 types of eds, and they all have varying relations to and degrees of hypermobility. secondly, eds are a collection of congenital connective tissue disorders - connective tissue makes up a vast majority of your body and, because of this, eds, hsd, and other congenital connective tissue disorders like loey-dietz, marfans, stickler syndrome, and osteogenesis imperfecta are multi systemic.
having eds or another connective tissue disorder is SO much more than just some flexibility and it's especially frustrated that they're often thought of solely in relation to that one aspect of them because it leads a lot of people down the path of misdiagnosis.
as an advocate and educator regarding ctds and especially eds, i have spoken to SO many people who simply wrote the possibility of them having a ctd like ehlers-danlos off simply because they aren't flexible. it's such a dangerous misconception and really frustrating to see especially given the fact that the muscles of hypermobile people often overcompensate to make up for joint laxity, which can actually lead to a lack of flexibility/high tone/spasticity
so yeah, tl;dr: if you have a bunch of multisystemic symptoms that seem largely unconnected, look into connective tissue disorders. they're much more common than people think, frequently go under the radar, and can really wreck havoc on your body - ESPECIALLY when you aren't aware that you have one
Listen to the cries of innocent people, you will not let us down
Today, the tents of the families considered to be in the humanitarian zone (mawasi Khan Younis) were targeted, as the Israeli occupation army informed us, and everyone was forced to live in this area under the pretext that it is safe in the southern Gaza Strip. These families were targeted with deadly rockets that burned tents, including tents, and many lost entire families.
Saved my family 😔🙏
As we are facing a major food crisis these days
The price of a bag of flour reached 1,300 shekels, equivalent to 350 dollars, as no one was able to buy flour due to lack of money.
Everyone is living in real famine these days. I hope you will not forget us, as your compassionate hearts will stand with us and our children.
Save my family from this famine and war we are going through.
With your kind hearts, we will overcome this tragedy.
the actor for Te wherowhero is a big W too
[image description: 6 gifs stacked vertically. The gifs depict a Māori leader, Pōtatau Te Wherowhero, and Governor George Grey, engaging in a tense conversation. The first gif features Grey in a gray and Black suit with a top hat, with two soldiers behind him, in a green forest, the text reads, “What will you eat?”. The second gif features Te Wherowhero opposite to him, wearing a brown top hat, a traditional cloak along with a red blanket, holding a taiaha, and with moko on his face, another warrior behind him: the text reads, “we will eat mamaku, para. We will be sustained by the fruits of our forest”. The third gif shows the camera move back to Grey, with a smug expression, the text reads, “and when that food is gone, what will you eat then?”. The fourth gif depicts Te Wherowhero again, looking away briefly before turning to Grey with an intense expression, and motioning to him with his staff, with the text that says “you!”. The fifth gif is back to Grey, the smug expression gone from his face and replaced with horror as his eyebrows furrow. The last gif is of Te Wherowhero again, both he and his warriors with a fierce expression and widened eyes, Te Wherowhero motions with his staff again more forefully, the text reading “I will eat you!”. End image description.]

Hello 👋, please understand my situation
My name is Moamen, father of three children
I find myself in this difficult situation, and I humbly ask for your help to save the lives of my family, especially my infant, 1 year old.
Your help to buy the necessities that we may be able to afford during the time of no income.
Your help to get us out of Gaza to Egypt and building a new life outside Gaza.
Asking for help is not easy, but we had no choice because we want to survive and strive to rebuild our shattered lives.
We are very grateful for any help you can offer, no matter how small, as your help will go a long way in alleviating our suffering.
I hope you will share my story with your family and friends.
Thanks for your kind support
