Hi everyone,

I’ve just launched the Gaza Verified Emergency Appeal to get our remaining 8 families who are stuck in the danger zone in the North to relative safety in the South.

gaza-verified.org/emergency/

Based on conversations @joynewaccJoy and I have had with them to ascertain what they need (transport, land, tents), we have set the campaign goal at $15,000.

To kick things off, I’ve made a personal donation of $1,000.

These families are living in terror under nightly bombings by Israel. Please, if you can, help them survive Israel’s ongoing genocide. And please share this as widely as you can.

Thank you!

💕

PS. The donations are being collected by our not-for-profit, Small Technology Foundation and the entire sum, minus Stripe’s fees, will be transferred to the individual fundraisers of the families. We have suspended our own fundraising for Small Technology Foundation for the duration of the emergency appeal (small-tech.org/fund-us/).

PS. If you keep the campaign page open, you will see the progress meter update and donations coming in in real time.

@joynewaccJoy Hi all,

Here’s today’s Gaza Verified Emergency Appeal Impact Report for Day 5:

Today, the $455.50 we had in the USD pot in Stripe that we were waiting for finally got transferred to our bank account.

To add to that, we got a $500 donation via bank transfer.

This morning, I withdrew €951.63 from the Stripe donation pot, clearing it. That got converted to $1,108.09.

Since the amount wasn’t enough for the two payments I wanted to make, I pushed the campaign a bit and you all responded like the absolute gems you are and I managed to withdraw another €794.51 from the pot. From this amount, I took the €200 we’d lent to yesterday’s payments from our own funds, bringing the total to €594.51. This got converted to $691.15.

So the total we had in the USD pot at the end of this was: $455.50 + $500 + $1,108.09 + $691.15 = $2,754.74.

From this, I also deducted the USD amount ($108.41) we had temporarily lent from our own funds yesterday so we could make the payments.

This left us with $2,646.33 to distribute today to:

@ahmedosama: $600 for land, in addition to the $600 for a tent we had sent earlier.
@mohshbairMohammed from Gaza 🍉: $2,000 for the remainder of transportation, land, and tent so they can evacuate South.

And, with that, we have paid out all the amounts that everyone in our 16 families had told us they needed from the start of the campaign on Saturday.

We currently have $46.33 left in our USD bank account.

I just checked Stripe and with new donations that have come in since my last withdrawal, we have €891.47 in there.

And the state of the campaign in general right now is that we have raised $34,233 out of our revised goal of $35,000 in the last five days and we have distributed $32370.42 to our 16 families to help them escape the bombs in the North to relative safety in the South.

This feels like a milestone.

We added four new families to Gaza Verified today and at least three of them are either trapped in the North or have family that is. I’m asking them for their needs now.

I’m leaving the goal at $35,000 for the moment but, as always, the more we have in the pot, the better we can respond to the needs of our families, so please keep sharing and helping out if you can.

Once we have the latest list of needs from our new families (and perhaps additional ones from our current ones), Joy and I will come up with a plan for evolving the campaign and the site. I am thinking we might archive the current week and start on a new week, again with singular focus on our families that need the most help in surviving Israel’s genocide in the here and now.

Words cannot express how much I love you all for stepping up and showing your love and solidarity for our families in Gaza and for welcoming them so warmly and with such humanity to the fediverse.

Thank you.

You give me hope.

💕

(The donation sites won’t let me put Gaza Verified or something like that in there, it needs to be a name.)Screenshot of today’s payment distribution spreadsheet showing that we have paid all of the requested amounts to all of the 16 families. It also, sadly, shows that we still haven’t been able to contact Ahmed Abu Ouda (and we are very worried).

We shape the world we live in. We are not powerless, yet our elected officials feign "having to" use X even though it's abundantly obvious it's a negative force. Why do they work as content creators that drive traffic and profits to x while holding public office? Don't they work for us?

I have noted from time to time that my broadband service is provided by a community broadband initiative called Broadband for the Rural North (B4RN); Full disclosure: early on I was on the management committee.

If you're interested in how B4RN delivered world class broadband to a rural community over a decade ago, there is now a massive on-line book of history & implementation tips for you to have a look at.

Headline: we did it ourselves!

Excellent reporting from Heated and Atmos. It looks like some of the biggest investors in the anti-trans movement are fossil fuel billionaires who are trying to use trans issues to ensure that Republicans pass policies favorable to their industry. heated.world/p/fossil-fue...

대림동서 또 '혐중' 외쳤지만‥수백 명이 '맞불' (영상) imnews.imbc.com/replay/2025/... "'맞불' 집회 효과는 이미 10여 년 전 일본에서 입증된 바 있습니다. 당시 일본에서는 재일 한국인을 겨냥한 '혐한' 시위가 사회적 문제였는데, 그러자 일본 시민들이 "혐오, 차별주의자가 활개 쳐서는 안 된다"며 맞불집회에 참여하기 시작했고, 점차 숫자가 늘면서 '혐오 발언 규제법' 통과라는 결과로 이어졌습니다."

Mussels are popular in Korea as well, but nobody ever thought of pairing them with fries. When I was young, mussel pods were often served as a complimentary dish at most seaside restaurants, free with any other order. Still, I’ve never seen any Korean place serving mussels with fries. Surprisingly, though, mussels and Belgian fries go very well together.

#馮斯瑜 被判15年酷刑,僅僅因為她是 的學生、與老師一起研究維吾爾文化。對一個族群,還有什麼比這更殘酷的懲罰?研究維吾爾文化者,和維吾爾人同刑。

以下內容摘自 @hrichina中国人权-Human Rights in China 報導:

2012年,馮斯瑜自杭州外國語學校畢業後,獲得包括芝加哥大學、加州大學伯克利分校、西北大學在內的17所國際頂尖院校錄取通知。她最終選擇在馬薩諸塞州阿默斯特學院完成歷史學學士學位,2016年赴倫敦大學亞非學院繼續深造。

在追求學術卓越的同時,馮斯瑜始終保持社會關懷精神,2013年利用暑期赴江西玉山縣支教,教授當地兒童詩歌與音樂,為他們講解顧城詩作和《歸園田居》等經典文學。離別時,還為孩子們購買了《夏洛特的網》、《探索地球》等啓蒙讀物。

馮斯瑜對維吾爾文化研究展現出非凡的學術熱忱,專程前往威斯康星大學暑期項目跟隨古爾尼薩·納扎羅娃教授(Gulnisa Nazarova)學維吾爾語,最終達到流利應用水平。2017年,她憑借本科榮譽論文《從伊斯坦布爾到喀什:艾哈邁德-凱末爾對中國突厥斯坦的教育使命,1885-1917年》榮獲阿默斯特學院Alfred F. Havighurst歷史獎,該獎項專門表彰卓越的人文學術研究成果。同年,她前往新疆大學民俗研究中心工作,致力於維吾爾女性民俗文化的深度田野調研,並計劃進入哈佛大學跟隨馬克·埃利奧特(Mark Elliott)攻讀歷史系博士學位。

這一切學術夢想,卻因中共的迫害戛然而止。

根據《The Intercept》獲得的烏魯木齊警方內部情報顯示,2017年10月,警方以馮斯瑜的OnePlus手機上裝有"外國軟件"而對其進行調查。但荒謬的是,警方情報同時指出,這個軟件是該智能手機自帶的預裝程序,並未有證據表明馮斯瑜曾使用過,但這名年輕學者依然於2018年被捕,隨後消失得無影無蹤。據信馮斯瑜於2018年被判處15年有期徒刑,目前可能已經從新疆監獄轉移到浙江本省監獄。

然而,人類學家魯恩·斯滕貝格(Rune Steenberg)認為,馮斯瑜被捕的真實原因更可能與其學術工作相關。2017年2月,馮斯瑜前往新疆大學民俗研究中心,與國際知名維吾爾民族志學者熱依拉·達吾提(Rahile Dawut)合作。達吾提是該中心創始人,長期致力於維吾爾文化研究,包括民間故事、宗教文化和口頭文學等。然而,這位傑出學者於2017年12月失蹤,2018年被秘密判處無期徒刑。馮斯瑜作為達吾提的合作夥伴和維吾爾文化研究者,很可能因此受害,成為當局打壓維吾爾文化研究的又一實證。對馮斯瑜手機軟件的調查,不過是為政治迫害披上的荒謬外衣….
