Rabbi David Mivasair has a GoFundMe to help provide basis necessities for the Palestinians of Gaza. If it is within your means, this is the link:

Rabbi Mivasair writes:

I want to add that the need is not only for money. There is a huge need for people there to simply have someone NOT there who expresses care toward them, who listens to them, who witnesses with compassion and empathy. I think of the people who scrawled on the walls of barracks in Nazi concentration camps "if only someone on the outside knew what they are doing to us here". I want to be the people who let them know that we do care, we are listening, we are trying to help, and they can tell us what is going on in their lives.


Please consider signing this petition which calls for a ceasefire and arms embargo, started by Rabbi Brant Rosen of Tzedek Chicago.

Excerpt:

We know that in order to achieve a permanent ceasefire in Gaza, the U.S. must stop arming Israel’s war and occupation against Palestinians. That’s why we are calling for an immediate embargo on US arms to Israel. Join us in calling on presidential candidate Kamala Harris to distance herself from Biden’s disastrous policy of arming Israel’s ongoing genocide and occupation in Palestine.

Not another bomb!

OMG I love Gianmarco! I was thinking of sharing this video here but wasn't sure if it would have been on topic.

I really like the two plate solution bit. The first part about kink shaming is pretty good, but the reality is that you could use any hypothetical situation that mirrors what’s happening in Palestine and it will always drive home the point that Israel is treated differently than anything else would be. Using furries is kind of a non-sequitur, and doesn’t really add anything.

It's just a funnier image. Gotta keep it light.

Nah, I get it. I’m just nitpicking because I was thinking of sending this to a couple friends, but then there’s a random furry kink shaming joke thrown in (in 2024), when the rest of the material is otherwise pretty tight.
