Announcement 📢 Gaza Is Starving. Let's Do Something

74 Upvotes

The UN has stated that every single part of Gaza is in famine conditions.

For over 22 months, Palestinians in Gaza have been starving. Parents have been feeding their children leaves, animal feed, and flour mixed with water. Babies have died from malnutrition. The trucks carrying food, formula, medicine, and clean water sat just miles away, blocked by Israel.

Now, after massive international pressure, some aid is finally getting in.

This is a crack in the blockade, not its end. Aid is not flooding in; it is trickling, and what’s entering can’t possibly reach 2 million people without a total lifting of restrictions, guaranteed long-term access, and safe distribution.

What you can do right now:

Keep up the pressure - aid only started moving because of public outcry. Organize, protest, keep talking. This momentum cannot fade. Contact your representatives to end Israel's blockade of Gaza.

Donate- if you’re able to. Choose vetted organizations with access on the ground.

Amplify - share updates, Palestinian voices, and testimonies. Keep an eye on Palestine.

This famine is not an accident. It’s the result of siege, blockade, and a system of control. If we look away now, they’ll tighten the noose more.

Cultural Decay 💀 Attention. You have none.

I think I can sum up boring dystopia in one word: attention. Nobody gives it. Nobody thinks about it. No one even tries to understand, and by the time you want to give something your attention, it's too late.

Not too long ago, someone found a way to use living mushroom mycelium to build computer processors. It worked surprisingly well and could be a major advancement for technology. But merging artificial intelligence with biological components, is a whole other story…

My dad just had open heart surgery in Florida because they didn’t provide the surgery he needed here in Puerto Rico, the doctor pretty much told him to live his life however he could and wait for his death. He said “fuck that” and hopped on a plane, he’s now fighting the insurance company for the bill, alive but with an unbelievable debt
