February started with false hopes of a ceasefire.
It is now February 15 and the largest medical facility in South Gaza, which sheltered ~2,500 people and had been under siege for two weeks, has been attacked. It is now completely out of function.
We are 21 days away from marking 5 months of ongoing genocide.
Here are several posts with numerous donation links & other ways to help. I’ll also include the tag I use for those posts, where you’ll find individual gofundme’s listed as well. There is also Operation Olive Branch, which has an excel sheet of numerous families in Gaza & how to donate to them + how to contact them. If you can afford it, please consider donating and please, please remember to scroll down to donate to families at the bottom of the list. If you cannot give, please simply share as many resources as you find.
Heartfelt Gratitude Of Loving Me
In which they receive a gift from you...
He had just woken up from another nap when he heard your footsteps coming closer. Ah yes, one of the best things to have when you wake up; your (s/o) by your side.
He lazily hugs you with an arm on your waist when you sit near him. You stroke his head, resulting in him purring a little. (Lions do purr, believe me or not!)
He smells the air for a few moments, because along with your scent there is another. And it smells like tender, delicious meat.
He turns his head to you as you take out something from a paper bag; the source of that scent.
Aaaaaand.... It’s a meat sandwich!
“Is it for me?” He smugly asks while eyeing you.
You nod, of course it’s for him! Who else would make something that contains his favorite food? And you tell him that this is a small token of appreciation for loving you.
He laughs and pats your head then he takes a bite out of it. ...It’s well cooked too!
“So, do you like it?” You ask.
Instead, he replies with a kiss since his mouth is full.
When he backs off, you can see him smiling at you. He seems to like your gift! 😊

He was sitting on a bench to rest after a tiring day when you approached him with a paper bag with something special in it.
Wait a minute, the bag on your hand smells divine! Could it be that you brought him what he thinks it is?!
You smile and kiss him on the cheek while putting the bag on his lap, and being the hungry boy he is, he breaks the kiss when he notices the bag on his lap.
He literally tears the bag apart to notice a box. Lo and behold; it’s a box full of doughnuts!
As he gobbles them he smiles at you with mouth full of them, wondering how did he get so lucky to be loved by you.
When he is done eating the doughnuts, he jumps onto you and starts to kiss your face as you playfully laugh and ruffle his hair.
You are certain that he will return to favor by bringing you your favorite food some time later~

He was sitting on his desk studying when you came to him with a surprise; a huge slice of apple pie!
He was surprised to say the least, especially after getting an earful from Vil.
The next thing you knew after putting the plate on his desk was him just tackling you.
He hugged you tightly as to not let you go, obviously overjoyed.
You hugged him back, not as tight, and kissed him on the forehead.
You can definitely say he absolutely loved your little treat. 🤭

He was scrolling through his phone in his room, in his little world when you came to him with two bowls. He had a frown on his face though...
You sighed, wondering what could make him to sad, and left them to bring something else.
He turned his gaze to you when you brought in a kettle with hot water in it.
Then his eyes caught a familiar sight of the package; two packs of spicy ramen.
“I was thinking of trying these with you...” You said with a giggle.
“It’s okay baby~” He put his phone down with a smile and kissed you.
You calmly put the ramens in your bowls and put the water, carefully as to not burn your hands, while Cater put the spices and prepared the chopsticks.
As you ate them together, you kissed him on the corner of his lips, making his cheeks flush deeper in response. This seems like it cheered him up.
As he is done with his bowl, he grabs your chin and kisses you on the lips.
★ Cater will definitely remember that.

It was after you were done with your classes when he found you making your way to Diasomnia. So he decided to watch you for a while...
As you enter the hallway by pushing the door open, the candles suddenly lit up. He was there, waiting for you with a smirk...
Needless to say, you are surprised. But after you collect yourself, you walk up to him. He runs to you and tackles you down, knocking the bag and its contents in the process...
He notices the said contents, that being two glasses of tomato juice with sandwiches, spilling out and messing up the floor...
“I wanted to surprise you, but I think you did it first.” You said, a little upset... but then he lifts you up.
“It is not a problem for me at all, my dear~” He smiles as he brings you to the kitchen.
While being in there, he takes out a carafe full of tomato juice from the fridge. Your eyes widen.
“Did you have this much juice already?!” You yell, clearly SHOOK, to which he replies, “Why yes, I had. Why wouldn’t I?”
You look down in disappointment while he gives you a glass and smooches you on the lips. 🥰
“You needn’t have to give me anything, you are the biggest gift to me.” He says, caressing your cheek.
You can’t seem to decide whether you want to kiss him or kick him in the nuts... But hey, he seems happy!

He was sitting in cafeteria, unusually alone, and eating his lunch when you approached him with a paper bag... He looked so sad. :(
You sit beside him with your plate and he immediately hugs you tightly and rests his head on your shoulder.
“Kalim, are you alright?” You ask him as you are worried, but he doesn’t answer. He just stays still like that.
“Jamil’s sick today, so he can’t be here... But hey, at least you’re here now!” He says with a smile on his face.
You slightly frown and kiss his cheek as you take out your surprise from the paper bag. His eyes catch the familiar sight of a brown fuzz as it becomes more clear; it’s coconut juice in a cup that resembles a coconut!
“Is that for me?!” He yells, getting the attention of some students. He snatches the cup and immediately opens it. You give him the straw that comes with it.
“Well, Cater and I were visiting a cafe the other day and I wanted to get something for you as well.” You pat his head. “I know Jamil’s not here to bring you coconut juice, but I did.. You looked like you needed it so- Wait, are you crying?!”
He was, indeed, crying... He puts the cup to the side and throws his arms around your neck.
“(Y/N)!!!!! THANK YOU SO MUUUUUUUCH!!!” He says while his tears wet your chest. You rub his back and kiss him on the top of his head.
A few days later, you hear a knock on your door. When you open it, you see Kalim standing there with the huge smile on his face. He grabs your face and kisses you on the lips before you can register what’s going on.
Before you know it, he brings you outside and you see a huge pile of gifts, all of them being your favorite ones... Your jaw nearly drops when he asks you this, “Did you like it (Y/N)? 😁”
You just stand there, trying to comprehend everything.

If you like my writing, would you be kind enough to reblog it as well? I want more people to see it! 🥺✨
cats being capable of understanding accidents and even giving you a little head bonk to let you know you're still cool makes it infinitely funnier that they don't understand when you're trying to help them
cats when you step on their tail: i'll admit that was rather ouchie, but given the lifetime of goodwill and trust between us, one must conclude this booboo is but a fluke.
cats when you try to get their claws unstuck from the couch covering: this nefarious bitch has never had a single honorable intention in their dishonest and shameful life, this must be one of their sinister plots or perhaps even an attempt on my life,
Meir Baruchin, a 62-year-old Israeli history teacher and anti-war activist, revealed how he was arrested in October and imprisoned in solitary confinement as a "high-risk detainee" in November for "intent to commit an act of treason" and "intent to disrupt public order" after he posted a photo of Palestinians killed by the Israeli army on 7 October in opposition to the war on Gaza.

Please support Aya and her family by sharing and donating!
Remember the 6 year old girl who was surrounded by Israeli tanks and the red crescent couldn't reach her? Her name is Hind Hamadeh. Here you can hear the phone call her 15 year old sister, Layan Hamadeh, made with the medics. She was killed exactly a moment later including all people in the car, except for 6 year old Hind who was stuck in the car with the dead bodies of her family, Israeli tanks and IDF surrounding her, shooting, preventing anybody to reach her.
That was last night (29.1.24). Today, still nothing. The fate of Hind remains unknown.
palestine red crescent ambulance team went to rescue her yesterday evening, but they have not returned as of now. We lost contact with them about 18 hours ago, and we still remain unaware of their fate and whether they succeeded in evacuating her or not.
Please, share Hind's story as much as you can on any platform. We need to know what happened to her. Put yourself in her place, how terrified she must be. Don't scroll past this.
This is Hind.
I was high off my ass last night and had this dream where I was in this dense ass forest and sitting there was a tall woman. She was so tall I couldn’t see her face but she was wearing gold and I was like “uh…hi?” And she said “I made you, do you know that?” And I nodded and she was like “I hear your thoughts. Why do you hate my creation? Why do you try to destroy yourself? I made you perfect as you are. Please don’t break my heart”. Then she started crying and it flooded and I woke up with fucking heart palpitations like what does it Mean™️????
Happy International Women's day y'all
