Bahaa and his family are living in a small tent on the beach of Khan Younis. They fled with nothing but their clothes, their son and their phones. We have set them up for winter, but they need food - if you have a small amount to spare, then please donate here: tinyurl.com/yu7nkzuz

read this and then if you feel helpless or sad or determined or anything, go find one of the many, many fundraisers by Gazans and help them. Just do one thing, help one person. Help more if you can, but whatever you do is something!

I had someone try to sell me rare books that had been stored in a garage that had recently been part of major floods. Kept asking for prices that were not 'this is already pulped, please throw out.'

I’m making up my own title for this one, “Woman sits down to read when suddenly her cat desperately needs to go outside even though she just let him in literally 1 minute ago.” artvee.com/dl/woman-sit...
