@daliamohisen has been sharing with us her family's ordeal in Gaza for months now.
She has a Gofundme setup to help them escape, and it's almost full! Only 2166 more to go! Can you help, and share this?

This may be selfish, but i would really like to be able to think that i made a difference for at least one family. And then i could make a difference for another one. And another one. All this despite my country's inaction, which is a deep shame.
Unsurprising that police tip rewards are in fact a scam that require jumping through all manner of hoops to collect. All the more reason to not snitch.
Fundraising for a laptop because ours almost caught fire and I'm stuck home, boost appreciated please
Hey friends,

Bills are paid, but we're still fundraising for a laptop since we don't have one anymore.
If you want + can help financially, here is our GoFundMe where everything is explained:
A single boost or even 1€ would be very helpful, thank you so much! Take care.
Something we hadn't expected but should have, as Assad's blood-soaked house of cards collapses in on itself, is that the fuckers who have built personal brands promoting and whitewashing this genocidal regime for a decade-plus, pushing denialist narratives cooked up in Damascus and Moscow, will try and pivot and pretend like they were with the Syrian people all along.
Do not forget or forgive these spineless, mercenary, lying human turds.
So a crazy thing happened. In a crime thriller film called Les chambres rouges (Red Rooms, 2023) there is a scene where the hacker protagonist is attempting to purchase a snuff film in online auction. The auction happens via IRC or IRC-like chatting environment and to my surprise there's actually me @rolle and my wife @mustikkasoppa who are one of the bidders.
1) The nickname of my wife is mistakenly written as "mustikasoppa" (with one k) but if I recall correctly she has used a mistakenly written nickname in the past
2) We are both operators and on the same IRC channel as we've been for the past 17 years
This is not a coincidence. One nickname can be made up by accident but not two with these features and definitely not in a French movie. My wife's nick "mustikkasoppa" is Finnish and means "blueberry soup".
Our IRC logs are more or less public because of open source and statistics so I presume the scene has been made with chatgpt which has scraped our nicks from the Internet so that they ended up in the movie. We still chat via IRC every day together.
The era of AI... Do your background check, folks. I'm glad this wasn't a dramatized documentary film but a complete fiction. However my wife and I are real. Mixed feelings.
Help Jane, a trans refugee from Texas flee the country. Her mental health condition limits her from working (PTSD), hence would need our help in fleeing the country. She's estranged from her family and are thus without support.
Goal achieved: 1% of 2500$

Programmer and IT girl. Pseudo-vegan for the environment (-avocados +oysters). Very uncomfortable with astrology. Please don't call me "dude", "bro", "man", etc. Radical egalitarian anarchist, hierarchies and hate are incompatible with a free and equal life . For real though, I'm not gonna tell you to vote or post about political spectacle that is outside our control and in-actionable. Aiming to have a similar amount of internal contradictions as my environment like Ashby's Law of Requisite variety. I am probably stoned on some variety and dosage of cannabinoids if I am awake if you hate stoners just dni. I am also a trans woman so I *checks notes* meme about femininity and feminization sometimes. After dark account at: @thufieplus but read my bio there before sending a follow request even if we are already mutuals here. Oh and just to be clear because I think I see other white people on here trying to fake not being white under a bunch of other text, I'm just a disoriented white girl trying her best.
