Help Mahmoud and His Son Rebuild Their Lives in Gaza My name is Mahmoud, and I live in northern Gaza with my young son, Muhammad.   Our lives have been devastated by the war. I lost my wife and daughters, my mother, all my sisters, and my only brother and his wife. My father passed away in 2021. Today, my son and I are the only surviving members of our family.   Our home was destroyed, and we are trying to rebuild our lives under extremely difficult circumstances. As a father, my greatest concern is providing my son with food, basic necessities, and a safe and stable place to live.   I am asking for your kindness and support to help us meet our daily needs and, if possible, secure suitable housing or contribute toward rebuilding our destroyed home.   Every contribution, no matter how small, can make a meaningful difference in our lives. Sharing our campaign with others would also mean a great deal to us.   I hope that with your support, my son and I can find a little stability, security, and hope for the future.   Thank you sincerely for standing with us.   Mahmoud and his son Muhammad Northern Gaza, Palestine   Support our campaign: https://spot.fund/HopeForMahmoud @mutualaid @mutualaid@fedigroups.social @mutualaidspace@mutualaidspace.org @disability @disability@fedigroups.social @wrzky @wrzky@kolektiva.social #disability #DisabilityCrowdfund #disabilitymutualaid #EmergencyCrowdfund #fedihelp #fediverse #healthcare #mentalhealth #mutualaid #mutualaidrequest #mutualaidspace #politics #poverty #genocide #press #anarchism #solidarity #disaster #disastercapitalism #internationalism #GazaMutualAid #Gaza #palestine #FediforGaza

@wrzky@kolektiva.social 🚨 LESS THAN 3 DAYS LEFT! PLEASE SUPPORT MUTUALAIDSPACE.ORG! 🚨 $126 IS STILL URGENTLY NEEDED to secure one year of VPS hosting for mutualaidspace.org and wrzky.com before my shared hosting renews on 30 October. I’m running out of time. I can’t simply pay on the last day. I urgently need to get this funded NOW so I can begin the migration without further delays. Both sites still need to be migrated and tested before the renewal deadline, and without enough time to complete that process, mutualaidspace.org may have to go offline. 🔗 https://ko-fi.com/wrzky/goal 🔗 Other ways to support: https://wrzky.com/psl To everyone who has already contributed or amplified my request, tysm 🙂‍↕️ If there’s any amount within your capacity to redistribute, please consider supporting mutualaidspace.org. This project is very dear to me, and I want to keep it online and accessible to the people who rely on mutual aid networks. PLEASE BOOST AND SHARE THIS FAR AND WIDE, even if contributing financially isn’t possible. I need this request to reach people who can support it before time runs out.Thank you, thank you. 🙂‍↕️💜 #MutualAid #MutualAidRequest #mutualaidspace #MutualAidBoost #DisabilityCrowdfund #disability #activism #fedihelp #EmergencyCrowdfund #DisabilityJustice #neurodivergence #Internationalism #writer #press #antifa #DisabledWriters #poverty #MentalHealth #Healthcare #solidarity #anarchism #politics #neurodivergence #ChronicIllness #SocialMedia #fediverse@mutualaidspace@mutualaidspace.org @mutualaid@fedigroups.social @disability @disability@fedigroups.social @mutualaid @wrzky@flipboard.social @disability @QuyetPawz@tech.lgbt @ellespeaks@mastodon.social @edendestroyer@social.chinwag.org @frugalcoffee@kolektiva.social @povertyandinequality@newsmast.community @activism@newsmast.community @neurodivergent@channel.org @disabledvoices@newsmast.community

thought would at least copy this over from the new account, just in case. Hashtags and viewpoints to see if we can find anyone aligned with us.

"Despair connects those who find each other in exile and appreciate a mutual grounded understanding of how bad things have been and how bad they can get. There is solidarity and comfort to be found among those who do not see despair as an ugly thing." New piece by Estelle Ellison, AKA abolish_time https://abolishtime.medium.com/the-anarchism-of-despair-c35054fd4766 #anarchism #abolish_time

Hello everyone, you can submit your mutual aid request here for amplification on the Fediverse and the general worldwide web: https://mutualaidspace.org/submit When you submit through the form, the post will be federated as @comrade. It will automatically tag @mutualaid and @mutualaid@fedigroups.social, alongside human profiles including my personal account @wrzky@kolektiva.social, my blog @wrzky, and the project account @mutualaidspace. It will also automatically add hashtags for wider circulation and indexed search: #mutualaid #mutualaidspace #mutualaidrequest #poverty #healthcare #mentalhealth #disability #disabilitymutualaid #disabilitycrowdfund #fedihelp #fediverse #politics #emergencycrowdfund Functionally, this is similar to tagging me, my blog, or my mutual aid project in your own mutual aid request post. The main difference is that the submission form allows you to anonymise yourself and have the request circulate through @comrade instead of your own social media account. The form is also useful if you do not have a Fediverse profile, or if you simply do not have many followers there. Your request does not depend entirely on the size of your own social network to reach people, because mutualaidspace.org has its own amplification infrastructure. The email address entered into the form is used for administrative communications about your submission, including automatic or manual removal notifications. It is not published unless you separately include it in your public appeal, does not subscribe you to a newsletter, and is not retained as a general contact record after it is no longer needed for your submission and its administrative handling. A Fediverse profile is already a social media profile where you can separate yourself from your IRL identity. But when asking the general public on the worldwide web for solidarity and material support, mutual aid seekers are often among the people in the most vulnerable position online. They may still go out of their way to reveal who they are, their circumstances, and other personal information because asking strangers for support often comes with pressure to prove that the need is real. The form does not remove that reality, but it provides a semblance of a barrier between the mutual aid seeker, their own social media profile on the Fediverse, and general netizens. The request can still travel through the Fediverse and the wider web without necessarily making the mutual aid seeker’s own social media identity the account being circulated alongside it. It functions mainly as an amplifier, so please do not use the form as the only place where you put your mutual aid request. You can either paste the link to your own mutual aid request post into the form or write your mutual aid request manually. The point is to help the request travel further while giving the person asking for support a little more control over how directly their social media identity is attached to that circulation.

I suppose an #introduction post is long overdue. My name is PJ van Mill (pjvm for short; 'they'). I'm working as a doctorand/PhD-student at Maastricht University, in mathematical operations research. I am interested in lots of other things. Two big ones for me are psychology, where I mostly engage with niches that are critical of mainstream psych, and leftist political analysis, where currently most of what I read is from an anarchist perspective. I'm also into some areas of law, namely copyright law and Dutch law on associations and other legal persons. I try to promote digital autonomy and I like simple and well-designed software. I love classical music; I sing in two classical choirs in Maastricht and I like to do classical improvisation on keyboard instruments. I do some volunteer work for my choirs; for one of them I am currently a board member. I also make sheet music sometimes. I have a website and a gemini capsule, for which I try to write stuff (I have a lot of stuff in my head that I have yet to get out into text) and where you can find some sheet music as well. What else... well, I am some kind of queer, but it's all a bit vague, uncertain and hard to explain or label. One aspect that has more or less crystallised is that I really don't like it when people make gendered assumptions about me, and I would hesitantly label myself as agender. I'm also autistic; currently not pursuing a formal psychiatric diagnosis. Lastly, I suppose quite an important thing for me is that I grew up christian and am now agnostic. I'm not very active on here; I read a lot of other people's posts but rarely make my own. I kind of want to change that, spend less time reading and more time interacting. #mathematics #Maastricht #ZuidLimburg #psychology #anarchism #law #foss #classicalMusic #personalWebsite #gemini #geminiProtocol #queer #agender #actuallyAutistic #agnosticism

UNCTAD says Gaza's per-capita income has fallen 83 percent to 58 cents a day, the worst economic collapse on record, while reconstruction needs climb to $71.5 billion. Below this piece sits this week's mutual aid roundup: rent, medication, evacuation costs, campaigns that have sat underfunded for days the people behind them can't afford to lose. Give what you can move today. Share what you can't fund, because reach costs nothing, and none of this week's list can wait on anyone else's timeline.

"With the myth of the State out of the way, the real mutuality and reciprocity of society and the individual became clear. Sacrifice might be demanded of the individual, but never compromise: for though only the society could give security and stability, only the individual, the person, had the power of moral choice - the power of change, the essential function of life." Ursula Le Guin, The Dispossessed #Politics #Bookstodon #Anarchism
