I seek refuge again after deleting my account, my family and I need to return to northern Gaza and we cannot afford the transportation fare. We need your support to be able to return to our destroyed hometown to start over 🥲🙏

I’m sharing a Palestinian account every day and today is Yacoub. Yacoub was a tailor before the war but he lost his shop and home. He’s trying to return to the North with his large family including Aida, 16, Anas, 14, Suhaib, 12, Batoul, 10, Yahya, 5, Zakaria, 2 and his wife who is pregnant.

As promised, if you’re inspired by the march today but don’t know how else to get involved, how to sustainably fight fascism, that can look a few different ways. Here’s a thread of thoughts, short of nationwide withholding of labor / sustained protest:

“When you have a disability people can’t see, you don’t get the same level of empathy. It feels like the world has moved on.”

It’s shameful how society is gaslighting people who are experiencing chronic illness and ignoring an ongoing public health crisis.

Long Covid Is Real -- And It's Changing an Entire Generation

Long Covid is affecting hundreds of thousands of kids in America, and many doctors and schools refuse to recognize their illness.

Hi, I'm the ProPublica reporter who's been tracking an unusual stat: U.S. citizens grabbed by immigration agents.

I did it because the government isn’t.

This is what I found.

White words on a black background read:

50+
Immigration agents have the authority to detain whom they reasonably suspect are in the country illegally. We found more than 50 Americans who were held after agents questioned their citizenship. They were almost all Latino.

~130
Agents also can arrest citizens who allegedly interfered with or assaulted officers. We compiled cases of about 130 Americans, including a dozen elected officials, accused of assaulting or impeding officers.

~20
Among the citizens detained are nearly 20 children, including two with cancer.

Everyone, I’m months behind on this car payment and behind on daycare.

My car might be taken soon and I don’t want that to happen.

I was raped in July, lost an ectopic pregnancy, lost my job and got Covid for the 7th time.

My car payment is $360 and daycare is $210.

PLEASE help if you can.

an unfortunate reality is that most people will not follow all of the proper safety measures today.

so, at the very least, please:

- DO bring water
- DO disable biometrics (FaceID, TouchID, etc) on your phone
- DO NOT take pictures of other people
- DO NOT sit down
- DO NOT talk to cops

I’m going to need to move by the end of October and have no real prospects or savings. I hate to ask but I have no idea what I’m even going to be able to do short-term until I have some resources saved up. Please, if you’re able, could you help with a donation?

While I have food now, I’m broke with no income and I am going to be hard pressed to come up with any money to put towards rent or anything else. I’ve just been treading water for a year.

Please, if anyone can help my payment links are in my bio. Uber credit also helps💕💸💸💕
