What people think why i became a bookbinder: Oh she wants to explore her artistic horizon with those pretty leather bound books of hers. She even gives them out as gifts to her friends. It most likely helps her with anxiety or maybe she just wanted a more special costume made notebook.
Why I actually became a bookbinder: I just illegally downloaded and printed out several of my favourite fanfics and books and started binding them into books cuz I love reading them but looking at screens for too long gives me headaches.

My long time friend Asma launched a fundraiser to evacuate her family from Gaza.
Asma has been trying to get her uncles, aunts, and remaining family members evacuated from Gaza. Last month, she managed to collect enough money to get her grandmother out of Gaza. After exhausting all other options, she has started a gofundme in the hopes that she can raise enough money to get everyone else out safely.
They survived their house being bombed and being buried under the rubble, but one of her aunt has several injuries including clavicle fracture and a spinal injury that makes it hard for her to move or walk. One of her cousins needs jaw surgery. In the same bombing, her other aunt's entire family was martyred. Since then they have been displaced many times as their health conditions have continued to worsen.
Please try to donate and/or share this post to give them a chance to heal and recover before it is too late. Thank you.

You have to recognize your capacity for harm. You cannot omit the harm you've done to others to remain "good." Anybody can be a bigot. Anyone can be an abuser. Anyone can harm anyone at any time even those who have been harmed themselves. The world is not made up of victims and villains only, this is life, not a Saturday morning cartoon and you are a human being who can or maybe even has hurt others and you HAVE to acknowledge that to learn to be better.

Fundraiser masterpost
This is a masterpost for the evacuation fundraisers I've vetted so far, a few other fundraisers I find trustworthy but have not been able to vet (inability to communicate with the organizer), and a few semi-completed fundraisers or fundraisers for a different purpose (like house rebuilding, or aid distribution). The numbers next to the names have no significance beyond ease of navigation for me for when I check their progress in the future. You should look at the disclaimers instead and focus on those. Occasionally I will update these with new info, including new fundraisers, and the amount of cash that's been raised. Check in regularly on the original post when you see it being reblogged. In all likelihood once its reached you it's already outdated. Also please don't overlook the Sustainable Aid options near the bottom! The brain drain is already creating problems but having another way of keeping or creating new knowledge and key members of a functioning society is important.
