my muse as of late
still kind of figuring out how i want to draw bee.. is it obvious i just finished till all are one
I feel like ive seen quite a few gfms getting passed around and ive observed that a lot of them have stories of such exceptional people who have achieved so much, or were going to before the genocide cut it off. And i really commend them for it, i really do.
But it breaks my heart that palestinians reaching out to us feel the need to have to prove that they are they are good people who are worth the support, like theyre only worth being supported if they had a good gpa or were exceptional in some way.
They shouldnt have to prove that theyre beneficial to the economy somehow to be worth the support. They shouldnt have to be exceptional to deserve help. Our governments are putting them through this, both in the west and around the world too. They shouldnt have to prove anything. We owe them this
the second i enter school premises i will immediately turn into a sludgy pile of nothing but meat and bone (singular bone)
a man walking by me on the street calls me a faggot so i point my bill gates 5g microchip gaydar at him and discover he experimented with a man in college and can reclaim it so i determine i am no longer upset
ive been drawing and posting alot
woah!
I am so sorry to bother you with this stupid question, but Bisan has asked for a complete stop in economic activity. Can I still donate to help Palestinians or is it better to avoid any transactions for the week ? Thank you so much for what you're doing
hello anon. don't apologise, you're a breath of fresh air after the recent visitors in my inbox. I think a slightly more accurate description of Bisan’s ask is to stop or minimise all economic activity not in direct support of Palestine. Now more than ever, I would encourage people to donate to escape funds for Palestinians, to direct aid organisations like CareforGaza and the PCRF, and to buy e-sims as they’re running low.
Below I’ve compiled a list of resources below but this is definitely just a small sample size of what you can do to help during this strike. This post here is an extremely comprehensive resource that I’d recommend you have a look at.
Care for Gaza:non-profit charity that distributes money, food and other resources directly to families in Gaza.They maintain a regular presence on Twitter and Instagram. You can donate to them via Paypal here.
PCRF / Palestine Children's Relief Fund: non-profit organisation that distributes essential food and resources to families in Gaza. Most recently, they delivered 30 tons of vital medicine, and 82,000 pounds of flour.
Medical Aid For Palestinians: deploys medical teams to treat Palestinians suffering under Israel's malicious bombardments.
Donate e-sims to Palestine: massive post with tutorials and relevant links, with discount codes included in the post and in the replies.
Help a Family Evacuate Gaza (GoGetFunding)
Save Sanaa and her Family (Gofundme)
Save Amjad Saher and his family (Gofundme)
Help a family of 13 escape Gaza (Gofundme)
Help a Palestinian children's book illustrator save her family of 12 (Gofundme)
there is something horrifically grim to it, but illustrations for gaza and palestinians tend to catch more mass attention that actual photos of people. this made me feel incredibly helpless for a long while, seeing both how people would rather look at a neat drawing of red black green and white than look a human in the eyes, and how online platforms would rather push a viral drawing while suppressing those begging for help at the same time.
a way to cope with this feeling has been taking advantage of it to directly guide people to helping palestinians.
if art gets better traction, then there’s an incredible amount of good that can be done by creating art that immediately links to fundraisers. creating art of the many images of those who are asking for help.
within hours of posting my drawing, there has been jumps in the thousands for bashar from gaza’s fundraiser. it’s a small effort in the grand scheme of things. it’s not a fix it. but it’s something good. please take care of each other and do what you can. i think this could help a lot of people if a lot of people did it.
here is bashar. i’ve drawn him, spoken to him, and known him now for a few months. any shares help, any art helps. draw who you see, draw what you see. thanks all
I held off on watching Tommy's "a tribute to dreamSMP" cause I knew I would cry
I watched it
and I cried, but I just have to say how much I LOVE LOVE the dreamSMP, its something that has impacted me SO much and pulled me out of a very dark place in my life. Watching streams and videos from Tommy feels so comforting and like a breath of fresh air because I can tell he actually loves doing what he does and puts so much effort into it, aswell as Ranboo, Karl and Wilbur
I love this silly roleplay server and cannot express how much it actually means to me
an update on the freedom theatre: they are calling for the release of all prisoners, and have set up petitions for people to sign in the us and uk. it's stated in the petition letters that while these should be spread through creative communities to get artists to sign, every bit of support is appreciated and others are encouraged to sign.

I wanna get into writeblr (writblr? idfk) so here's an introduction
Hi my name is Mew I'm an aspiring author working to get my story kingdoms published in April 2024.
Kingdoms is planned to be a trilogy with possible spinoffs as well depending on my interest and if I can make stories about other characters.
Book 1 of Kingdoms is basically about how this demon, who was once living a peaceful life for a couple thousand years on the fictional planet of Ayuzuma suddenly gets attacked at his family reunion, and he goes off trying to figure out what sparked the attack. His search for answers mostly has to be forgotten in the wake of a war waged by Takahiro and Katherina, two well-known criminals in the land of Ayuzuma. Satan has to scramble to prevent Ayuzuma from being taken over before anything gets worse.
On the side I'm also working on a story in the vein of Percy Jackson, it's a five book series called Keiko Kuromiya, book 1 being The Cut-Faced Woman. The mc, Keiko Kuromiya is a irish-japanese girl who while learned the language and the alphabet wasn't that connected to her Japanese side. She's always known that her parents would move to Japan one day so her father could appease his parents but she didn't expect it'd be during spring break in the middle of her sophomore year. She meets a new friend but also a woman with a cut-faced, Kuchisake-Onna. While the better thing to do is to not tell her she's pretty or ugly and just avoid her, Keiko is curious and wants to investigate, but she'll learn there's more to her friend and Kuchisake-Onna.
Feel free to ask any questions about either of these!
