Six relatively easy ways to support Palestine and the Palestinians in Gaza:

1. Donate to personal GoFundMes, and share them, to support with winter clothes, incredibly expensive food, and exit visas. If you don't know where to start, go to https://gazafunds.com/, you'll get a random GFM to donate to. ANY AMOUNT WELCOME.

2. eSIMs are the only way for Palestinians in Gaza to keep in contact.
Donate eSIM directly: http://gazaesims.com with tutorials. Min. 3 or 5 GB.
Or via Crips for eSIM: https://chuffed.org/project/crips-for-esims-for-gaza or Geeks Keeping Gaza Connected: https://www.gofundme.com/f/keeping-gaza-connected ANY AMOUNT WELCOME.

3. Join the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions movement. Check your local branche: https://bdsmovement.net/get-involved/what-to-boycott Use the Boycat app!

4. Keep talking about Palestine! Put pressure on politicians and unions. Share information from https://decolonizepalestine.com/

5. Check your locale pro-Palestine groups and see if there's a way for you to join them in actions.

6. There are Palestinian led organisations like Workshops 4 Gaza, the Sameer Project, Palestine Medical Relief Project, and many more who can also use your support.

#PleaseBoost! It's exciting to be starting up a new regional #Mastodon for British Columbia when there is so much change and growth in the #OpenSocialWeb #Fediverse!

We're not ready to open up the gates… still setting up the banking stuff among other things.

But if you're in BC and are interested in making your home on this instance please send me or @PhotographyElf a DM and we'll start making a (private) list so that we can let you know when we're ready! (Hoping Jan 1!)

Fantastic article on the longevity of Aboriginal oral tradition. For context: Stonehenge is only 5,000 years old.
