can we show some broader support for all these lovely young people? living conditions in sudan are already horrific right now, and the persecution these folks face on /top/ of the worst displacement crisis in modern history isn't something those of us in the global north can look away from

No one should starve for simply being who they are 🌈

Hunger and sickness should never be the price of being LGBTQ+💔

Your kindness can be the difference between despair and hope ✨

Rejected by many, but not forgotten by us🕊️

Feed a soul, heal a heart, save a life💖

We once had a beautiful, warm home a refuge from danger, cold, and rain. I’d return from work tired, and Lina would open the door; her hug and the scent of our home erased all fatigue. Now it’s all gone, Lina. They left us nothing to hold onto. Can I ever get my home back?

I’m sharing a Palestinian account every day and today is Mahmoud. Mahmoud was a computer engineer doing web development before this. He’s lost his job and home (and many coworkers) and is in a tent with his family including his children Zeina, 6 and Zane, 2. His wife Malak is 7 months pregnant.

Notes from Poland @notesfrompoland.bsky.social · 3d

Polish members of the Gaza aid flotilla have returned home after being deported by Israel.

One of them, a member of parliament, has accused Israel of "torturing" them during captivity. He criticised the Polish government for "turning a blind eye" to "genocide" in Gaza.
