My dear friend Amal confirmed that Naser had surgery last week to save his life! ❤️🍉

But, he is weakened from malnutrition. Recovery will not be easy.💔

Please donate to support my dear friend. The whole family needs healthy food to recover from malnutrition.💕☮️

Naser lays on a hospital bed receiving oxygen and hooked up to monitors. He has a war-induced lung condition that has required treatment and surgery. Amal Al-Haj displays a brief smile on her lovely face upon the news of the 10-10-25 Ceasefire. Now, she is by her husband's side and tending to her children as Israel continues to bomb Gaza and prevent healthy food from entering the Gaza Strip.

I was a witch for Halloween. This is the first time I’ve ever dressed up as a witch!

I thought the nod to “something Unholy” & to my own research with Sarah Posner’s book would be clever for the puritan witch look.

1000/10 recommend dressing up as a witch to feel a little stronger in these times.
A black and white photo of a white woman wearing a black dress over a white shirt. No face is visible for internet safety. She is dressed up for Halloween as a witch. She leans against a fence and holds 2 books. The title that is visible reads, “Unholy: Why White Evangelicals Worship at the Altar of Donald Trump” a book by Sarah Posner. Another image of the woman dressed as a witch. This photo is in color, so the fence is revealed to be brown. She wears a black dress over a white shirt with an angular purple earring. She has short dark hair with gray streaks added for the Halloween costume. The woman holds the books again, this time the spines only are visible. They read “The Witch of Blackbird Pond” and “Unholy.” The literary references are part of the costume.

Here is the image with alt text!! And I will go update my settings too so that I don’t forgot again when I am editing and posting an image (I got so worried about editing the picture for internet privacy that I forgot this time).

Thank you for the reminder and the information on settings!🫂💚

His sign reads, “Let Queer Kids Live” in large black block letters on purple posterboard with yellow daffodil stickers. He is holding a small nonbinary flag in his right hand. The picture cuts off his face for privacy.

Yes!! And it’s so important to remind people that men are doing more (and can do more). We can have high expectations and we don’t need to pander to hateful, racist freaks.

This is my partner at Nex’s memorial. His shirt says “Nurture.”
I too think that the good men are out there doing good!💚

Fuck Walsh. Walsh is not the way.

NOTHING ABOUT US WITHOUT ALL OF US!

Trans rights, Palestinian lives, Black & Brown lives, LandBack for Indigenous communities, immigrant communities, & Queer rights are not “personal policy demands” they are democracy itself.

WE ARE DEMOCRACY!

He was such a good boy! I think he might have been a mutt because his ears didn’t flop all the way, but one was down often and the other up. He listened to history lectures with me and got me through a lot!

Ok, friends w/ more experience than me.

My account that I made for Amal has been perma banned.

Any advice? Is it worth it to email the mods? Or will that just lose me this personal account too?

Amal cannot fundraise right now, so if you want to donate, use this link: gofund.me/03f0859d2
Email from BlueSky mods about my account with Amal being banned entirely.

I chose this piece to represent Khaled because it is strong, vibrant, and heartfelt like our friend Khaled. @eligeuno.bsky.social

Rolan & Omar are terrified. Amal tried to calm their screams, but she is terrified & overwhelmed too.

Can you imagine the pain of comforting your terrorized children while babies across the street are murdered before your eyes?

She is is so much anguish. Please don't look away from this pain. 3/
