So tumblr staff didn't just delete 1 blog of Med's without warning (fairuzfan), they deleted 2. The first blog was helpgazachildren, which was Med's blog to campaign for donation drives for Hussam who distributes basic necessities on the ground in Ghazzah. They have consistently shown proof of acquisition and distribution of goods as results for every donation drive. There is no reason to kill this blog other than to kill the Palestinian children and adults alike that rely on it for survival. Make no mistake, the actions of this company, Tumblr, and its CEO have real life consequences for the people who use it as a lifeline for survival.

That makes up an entire section of the people trying to survive genocide in Ghazzah. And now with both of Med's blogs gone, there is no recourse.

Tumblr is going to be the reason for the death of several Palestinians. And if I'm right in suspecting they're taking my blog down next, this will happen to the groups served by both Mona, and Hussam, and the families who have contacted me through this website and are relying on my fundraising campaigns to get to safety. This is not a minor issue.

saw a sign that said "honor aaron bushnell, free palestine" and man. why don't we honor the 40,000+ palestinians martyred in the last 200+ days. why don't we honor the palestinians who israel has maassacred in the last 75+ years. why don't we honor the palestinian villages wiped off the map. why don't we honor the entire lineages whom israel murdered. idk maybe yall need to think about why it took a white man self immolating for you to care about palestine!

A Vaqueira de Alzada woman migrates to the summer brañas of Los Corros and Las Tabiernas from the winter brañas of Silvallana and Brañaescardén in the spring of the early 1970s. The spring migration (l'alzada) is the happiest time of year for the Vaqueiros. Traditionally cattle are dressed in special headgear with bells and Vaqueiros sing songs and ring bells to announce their joy at the arrival of spring and their return to the summer brañas.

The Vaqueiros are a small traditionally nomadic people indigenous to northwestern Spain.

José García Ardura, "El Rey de Escardén" (The King of Escardén), a Vaqueiru man, alongside his wife and one of their cows in their summer braña of Busteḷḷán (Bustellán) in 1952. His nickname comes from his winter braña of Brañascardén (Escardén) and possibly his house name, Rei/Rey. The Vaqueiro house system is a complex system of kinship, inheritance, and land division which plays heavily into Vaqueiro cosmology.

This bloodbath has gone on for far too long. At the start of this aggression, the school year had barely just started. The academic year ends in just a month. Everyone, from first graders to university seniors, have lost an entire year at least. I say at least considering even if there is a ceasefire today, Israel had destroyed literally all universities in Gaza and damaged over 400 schools. Lest we forget also Israel's deliberate targeting of university professors and academics.

You absolutely cannot mistake the intent behind all of this.
