Pretend, for example, that you were born in Chicago and have never had the remotest desire to visit Hong Kong, which is only a name on a map for you; pretend that some convulsion, sometimes called accident, throws you into connection with a man or a woman who lives in Hong Kong; and that you fall in love. Hong Kong will immediately cease to be a name and become the center of your life. And you may never know how many people live in Hong Kong. But you will know that one man or one woman lives there without whom you cannot live. And this is how our lives are changed, and this is how we are redeemed.
What a journey this life is! Dependent, entirely, on things unseen. If your lover lives in Hong Kong and cannot get to Chicago, it will be necessary for you to go to Hong Kong. Perhaps you will spend your life there, and never see Chicago again. And you will, I assure you, as long as space and time divide you from anyone you love, discover a great deal about shipping routes, airlines, earth quake, famine, disease, and war. And you will always know what time it is in Hong Kong, for you love someone who lives there. And love will simply have no choice but to go into battle with space and time and, furthermore, to win.
—James Baldwin, The Price of the Ticket

Donations Needed: Help a Gazan Skater Evacuate His Family
This is the link to help Hani. Hani is a skater currently living in Belgium and rebuilding his life. His family lives in Gaza and are suffering at the hands of the occupation. His father was killed and they lost their house. He is now responsible to protect his family.
He needs the funds to help them evacuate. Please donate and share this.
Read more about Hani’s situation below (from his GoFundMe):
“Hello, I'm Hani from Gaza, and I'm 23 years old. I've been living in Belgium for a year, and I'm an inline skater. I'm collecting donations to get my family out to safety from northern Gaza to Egypt because I can't afford the large amount of money needed. I'm here in Belgium in the process of rebuilding my life and achieving my dreams.”
“After losing my house and its destruction on October 13th, my family became displaced in tents, and on September 15th, I lost my father due to the attack on Al-Shifa Hospital. My father was suffering from kidney failure and passed away due to lack of treatment. He was the breadwinner of my family. Now I am responsible for my family, which consists of 10 members, including 3 minors, and my 18-year-old brother. The rest are my sisters, including two toddlers, one is 3 years old, and the other is 2 years old.”
“My siblings were university students and had dreams too, but because of the war, they lost everything; they lost the university, our home, and our father. They aspire to continue their studies at the university, but the war destroyed everything. I'm now trying to get them out of Gaza to Egypt to rebuild their shattered lives. To do that, they need to be evacuated, and they need to pay for the coordination into Egypt. Due to war time prices, they're asking for 5,000 euros per person to get them out of Gaza because northern Gaza has been completely wiped out, with insufficient food and people scattered among the rubble of homes under heavy bombardment. I hope you can help me through your donations or by sharing the story with friends. Thank you so much with lots of love.”
Please donate. Every little bit helps. If you cannot donate, share this.

Thanks. Yes of course they’re Palestinian.
Would you kindly open up a pathway for me to DM some info? Links can’t go in asks, and your replies and chat are limited to your mutuals.
Thanks
I wanted to share a fundraiser link with you that could really use a boost from your list. How best do I do that?
Send me the link to the fundraiser, and any social media accounts linked to it that you know of. If this is for someone you know personally, I will DM you upon request asking for certain things as proof, and whatever you show me / send me will stay between us. I will judge for myself if it's trustworthy and legitimate.
I only verify the legitimacy of fundraisers claiming to be Palestinian.

Hi, I was recently reminded of WPF and when I went looking for the masterlist, I saw that theaoidos tumblr is deactivated.
Do you by any chance have any of the fics saved and are willing to share them? I know that a lot are on AO3 but my favorite ones weren't.
Hey friend! Unfortunately I don’t have them saved offline but your best bet is to see what you can dig up from my #wpf!verse tag on here. Hope you find one of your favs!

Fundraiser masterpost
Latest update: 21/04/2024.
This is a masterpost for the evacuation fundraisers I've vetted so far, a few other fundraisers I find trustworthy but have not been able to vet (inability to communicate with the organizer), and a few semi-completed fundraisers or fundraisers for a different purpose (like house rebuilding, or aid distribution). The numbers next to the names have no significance beyond ease of navigation for me for when I check their progress in the future. You should look at the disclaimers instead and focus on those. Occasionally I will update these with new info, including new fundraisers, and the amount of cash that's been raised. Check in regularly on the original post when you see it being reblogged. In all likelihood once its reached you it's already outdated. Also please don't overlook the Sustainable Aid options near the bottom! The brain drain is already creating problems but having another way of keeping or creating new knowledge and key members of a functioning society is important.

From Al Mayadeen's summary of occupation media coverage of Iran's strikes:
"Israeli journalist Amir Bohbot considered that any future confrontation with Iran could end with 'a barrage of drones and ballistic missiles,' similar to those that targeted the occupied territories early Sunday, as 'the dam (barrier) was breached and has collapsed.' He said that 'Israel' is 'not in a hurry' to attack Iran, even though this 'damages Israel's deterrence.'
... The military affairs correspondent for Israel Hayom, Lilach Shoval stressed the need to take Iranian threats seriously, noting that discussions in 'Israel' currently 'revolve around changing the equation.' Shoval pointed out that 'Israel has been attacking targets, personnel, and scientists from Iran for years, in the shadows and behind the scenes,' but now it will have to consider 'whether it is worth doing so, after it believed [earlier] it could without Iran retaliating.'"
