Sadly, there has been a drop in support to the campaigns listed on lifeline4gaza.com. Palestinians in #Gaza are facing a harsh winter amidst a genocide without any aid besides what they can raise in their survival campaigns. Please share to help uplift their appeals.
Another way in which you can support lifeline4gaza.com is by printing the flyers available on the website and passing them around in your community. This project that supports several survival campaigns for Palestinians in #Gaza depends on all of us to keep moving. Please do what you can to help.

It's hard to express what it meant to watch Maurice, Natalia, Celeste, and Rhea tell their stories—in their own voices—this morning.
The segment revealed a brutal reality: homelessness at this scale isn't about personal failure. It's the result of policy choices and systems built to exploit people.

those of us laid off from Teen Vogue were really fortunate to complete our fundraising goal — the laid-off staffers at VIBE deserve the same support, as Black media outlets and journalists continue to be targeted and discriminated against in “austerity” measures
It was announced on October 16, 2025 that VIBE was "joining forces" with Rolling Stone. As a result, the majority of VIBE employees were laid off. If you have the means to give, this team could use the support! www.gofundme.com/f/support-vi...

Alice leaves behind a body of work that will continue to shape movements for decades. But more importantly, she leaves behind communities and relationships she helped build and nurture—relations that will carry her clarity, her defiance, and her tenderness forward.

One way I have found to mourn someone is to set up a monthly sustaining donation to a mutual aid effort they cared about. If you can join me in honoring Alice Wong, @sfdirewolf.bsky.social with a sustaining donation today, please do. Thank you Alice, and I will not let the bastards grind me down.

‘The Everlasting’ hits the bullseye of historically-inflected critique of empire that’s also inextricable from a commitment to futurity—very much in the José Esteban Muñoz sense!—and resistance.

Being able to see the stars at night is actually an important part of being human.
Lots of folks captioning aurora photos like "for a few minutes we didn't think about politics"
guess I'm built different, every time I'm out trying to see night sky stuff I frequently think about how much light pollution is entirely preventable with just a tiny bit of regulation

Crystal is one of the best people, hands down. My blood type probably rules me out as a donor for them, but I registered as an interested living donor in case a paired donation would be an option. You can do the same!
Did I go to the bar and make a Lisa Frank-themed social media ask for an organ? Yes.
benefits to donating:
- temporary break from work and responsibilities as you convalesce
- badass scar
- you grow your own organ back, that’s kinda cool
- good karma
- you save my life
(please share)
