In a corner of Gaza, my family and I are drowning in destruction, with the echoes of suffering surrounding us. I sat beside my modest tent, hastily erected after losing my home in the latest bombing. The faces of my family tell stories of patience and resilience, with lines of time etched upon them, as if they were records of unforgettable events. 🇵🇸⏳🍉
I once lived in a small home, filled with the laughter and voices of my children. Today, I have become a witness to the agony of displacement. The bombing forced me to flee with my children after a shell struck our home, leaving behind years of memories and simple belongings I never imagined would become unreachable. 🏚️💨
Every morning, I leave my tent and go to work, using a clay oven to provide food for my children. Meanwhile, my youngest son heads to the charity kitchens that offer aid, waiting for long hours under Gaza’s scorching sun. Despite the exhaustion that weighs down his frail body, he carries the food mixed with his tears and returns with a fake smile, hiding behind it the burdens of his struggles. 🍞🥀
At night, when everyone else is asleep, I remain seated at the entrance of my tent, gazing at the dark sky, reminiscing about days gone by… about my home that was once filled with warmth. Yet, I still find remnants of hope in my heart—a hope that one day peace will return, and my children and I will live in a new home, filled with joy. 🌙🏡✨
In moments of solitude, I find peace in prayer and supplication. I plead to God to protect Gaza and its people,to wipe away the dust of sorrow from our hearts. I always repeat🇵🇸🍉🌿
“We are here to remind the world that we are stronger than war, and we will rebuild our lives anew, no matter the cost!” 🙏
My name is Naser, and war has taken everything from me—my mother, my sister, my home, and the life I once knew. In an instant, my world was shattered, leaving behind nothing but memories and the weight of loss.
But even in the darkest moments, I refuse to give up. Because amidst the pain, I still have something worth fighting for—my three younger brothers.
🔹 One dreams of becoming a doctor, to heal others so they don’t have to endure the pain we’ve faced. 🔹 Another aspires to be an engineer, hoping to one day rebuild what war has destroyed. 🔹 And the youngest? He doesn’t have big dreams yet—he just wants to be a kid again, to wake up in a home that feels safe, to play without fear.
But how do you rebuild a life when there’s nothing left to start with?
🏡 We Need a Home. We Need Education. We Need Hope. Right now, we are not just fighting for survival—we are fighting for the chance to live, to grow, to dream again. We are fighting for a future where my brothers can become the doctor, the engineer, the child who gets to have a childhood.
💙 This is where you come in. I’m not asking for much—just a chance. A chance to rebuild, to give my brothers a future beyond war.
Your support, whether through a donation or simply sharing our story, can make all the difference. Even the smallest act of kindness can create ripples of change.
Hey everyone, my name is Abdelmajed. I don’t usually talk much about myself, but today, I want to share a little piece of my story.
I was born and raised in Gaza, a place that has always been my home 🏡. I grew up surrounded by my family, my friends, and the streets that I knew like the back of my hand. Life wasn’t always easy, but we had love, laughter, and dreams. I used to think that no matter what happened, home would always be here. But life has a way of changing things in ways we never expect.
Over the past months, everything I once knew has disappeared. The streets that were once filled with children playing are now silent. The houses that held so many memories are now just rubble. And the people I loved—some of them are gone forever. 💔
“Firefox sucks” “firefox is clunky” “firefox doesn’t work” with all due respect what the fuck are you talking about
No i’m serious what do you mean by “Clunky”? it is a fucking web browser. what does it need to be svelt for?
Is the bookmarks bar too big? turn it off. You don’t like the base theme? Find a new one, there’s plenty. I had nine inch nails for my browser theme in high school.
Or, let’s be real, it’s not anything wrong with firefox as a browser, you just don’t like admitting that you got duped by google into feeding their spy machine. Guess what, you’re human, you make mistakes, and google has a giant team of lawyers and marketers and engineers whose sole purpose in life is to hoodwink you into feeding their Moloch. You can admit you were wrong at any time and nobody will judge you for it.
But dear god stop making excuses.
I’m sorry?

I’m tabs georg adn should not be counted.
I used to be like you. Then I discovered this amazing little plugin for Firefox called “OneTab”. It changed my life; it can change yours, too.
Why do you need that many tabs though?
A mix of bad information management, FOMO, optimism, and ADHD.
My tabs come from one of two places:
I find something I want to read but don’t have time now, or
shelving a project (for the day, a week, a year, whatever) and I have a bunch of open tabs related to it.
Really, I should have a system for capturing all of this that doesn’t involve hundreds of tab. Something that captures the information and files it in a way that is well indexed and searchable.
And be honest with myself about what I am actually going to get around to reading.
Instead, I shove everything in groups in OneTab, and ctrl-F to find the link or group I need when the need comes up.
So, for example, I have a laptop with which the audio drivers do not work. I have about fifty tabs of stack exchange and superuser posts from other people with the same issue, and once a month or so I resurrect that tab group to try to debug it.
Or I have a friend with a 3D printer who will print a box organizer for Wyrmspan for me, but I need to actually pick which organizer I want from a couple dozen options first. That is another tab group, waiting for me to have the mental bandwidth to finish narrowing down the options.
Probably related, I have 1156 drafts saved on tumblr.
Why not just use bookmarks?
I feel like that’s something you need to talk about with your therapist.
My name is Hashem from Gaza. I am 32 years old and my wife, Samar, is 27 years old. We have a child born in the eighth month of pregnancy. His mother was premature because of my wife’s fear of war. My large family consists of 8 members: my father, mother, four male brothers and 2 females. My father died in the war due to a lack of medicine in hospitals as a result of the fierce war on Gaza.
My story began when we were displaced from our home in northern Gaza in mid-October 2023 after a letter threatening eviction, and then the house was targeted and destroyed. Between this Exodus and the current fifth Exodus there are many stories and sufferings.
We now live in plastic tents, which are thermal ovens, which are not suitable for living and do not provide the minimum necessities of life, in addition to the spread of epidemics and diseases, which puts our lives in danger.
Through this campaign, we are trying to collect enough money to meet our needs and get us out of the Gaza Strip safely. We ask you to stand by us and protect us from this severe danger.
