Crips for eSIMs for Gaza can no longer send eSIMs!!! Palestinians are still surviving genocide, and we all need to help keep them connected. So their voices can be heard. 315/500 by Saturday—to cover 1 week of topups for 200 people supported by the UK volunteers: bit.ly/esimsUK
A mint green graphic decorated with a large dandelion seed and dozens of little orange circles splattered across. Heading: Keep Gaza connected this spring! Text: The Crips for eSIMs UK team keeps 200+ eSIMs topped up every day. Just £5 helps someone in Gaza—a doctor, student, journalist, or any person who has the right to the internet—stay connected to the world for a month. In the bottom left is the Crips for eSIMs for Gaza logo (an orange SIM card with the micro-SIM decorated with a green kuffiyeh pattern), with an illustrated bumblebee perched on top.

FINAL 12 HOURS! I’m sharing birds I saw when I visited my best friend, Ahmed, last year. Ahmed fled Gaza not for safety, but to get the skills needed to heal children traumatized by genocide. But he needs OUR help with living costs until he gets his scholarship. 447/500: tinyurl.com/HelpAhmedF
A banner that is light green. In the background is a painted texture, with a black ink drawing of a laughing dove peering through a gap in a wall or fence. The title is dark green and says, "Help survivor Ahmed start his degree." In the bottom corner are some green paint strokes, over which the text reads, "Give: tinyurl.com/HelpAhmedF. Accountability: tiny.cc/HelpAhmed.”

We're seeing a drop off in newborn donations in Minneapolis. Birth workers are seeing small/early babies due to stress/food insecurity—ICE has not stopped—families still in desperate need of support. If you're able, here is a wishlist compiled by folks doing mutual aid www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/...
Operation Metro Love Thy Neighbor
Hello Friends of Operation Metro Love Thy Neighbor! Many of our neighbors in Minneapolis are being targeted based on the color of their skin, their accent, or their country of origin. From a healthcare standpoint, this is leading to very scary outcomes, as patients are terrified to leave home and are foregoing necessary care in an effort to stay safe. For moms and babies, medical professionals scramble to meet these needs and to ensure patient safety. As neighbors and community members, we want to ensure these moms and babies have their needs met in terms of supplies, personal care items, and infant and toddler items. While it's a far cry from a baby shower, we are doing our best to ensure that our neighboring mamas have what they need in times of massive distress. All items purchased on this list will be delivered to me and then immediately sent out into the community for maximum impact. On behalf of all the mama and baby teams, we so appreciate your love and generosity.Black image with white text and white line drawing of a parent holding a baby. Text reads: "Mama + Baby donations needed. All items with an asterisk must be unused. Other items may be gently used. These items will go to immediate homes and be appreciated. [heart emoji] Thank you! ITEMS NEEDED: diapers (size 0-6)*, baby wipes*, pacifiers*, teething items*, free and clear detergent, baby shampoo, baby-safe lotion, infant clothing (all sizes), infant hats, baby blankets, burp cloths, swaddlers, hands-free baby carriers, breastfeeding guards*, feeding pillows, maternity pillows, belly bands, nipple cream*, pimps, infant safe toys, pack + play, epsom salt."

a call to healthcare workers from “Health Fascism and the Anti-State State” in December: www.deathpanel.net/transcripts/...
Transcript Death Panel episode “Health Fascism and the Anti-State State” (December 22 2025):

“Second: we fight by recruiting defectors from inside the house. This is a call to healthcare workers: betray your training when your training demands cruelty. If it means someone gets what they need to live—betray your bosses, your licensing board, your EMR, your scope of practice. Care is not your credential, it’s your calling, your skills, your knowledge, your access, your obligation to your community. And sometimes that obligation will mean disobedience.

If we are to build the world we need, we need you on our side, not on the side of your administrator. We need you willing to take risks, not just for your reputation, but for the material survival of those around you. The struggle is already here and you can either enforce the harm or interrupt it. We need insurgent care. And we needed it yesterday. If you have access pass it on. If you have knowledge, share it, weaponize it. If you have creativity, run with it.”Transcript Death Panel episode “Health Fascism and the Anti-State State” (December 22 2025):

“This is where the real transformation begins. Not just in asking the system to care, but also in building the world we wished we lived in. A world where care is not determined by billing or zip code, or citizenship, or employment status, or formulary, or diagnosis codes. A world where no one is surplus. Where illness is not a source of shame or debt or punishment—but simply a part of life, and a part of being and feeling cared for.”

Prices fluctuate daily but right now tents are about $250, tarps are $44, blankets $36, and tracksuits around $12. Donate, share, stand in solidarity with Palestinians in Gaza. They need you now!
