using a limited color palette while being a noob is shit. this drawing looked like ao oni in a white wig for like an hour.
Look, I know a good number of you are from the US and things aren't amazing there either, but my country is literally on the brink of collapse. So I'd love it if we could talk about that for a minute.
If you can't do anything else, please just read and reblog.
A second COVID wave has taken out the healthcare system. There are no more hospital beds. There's an oxygen shortage. There's a critical vaccine shortage. The Central Government has thrown its hands up and is passing the baton to the State Governments to do what they can.
There are over 16 million covid cases. A record 330,000 new cases reported yesterday - comparable to the US at its peak. 187,000 dead as of today.
There is no plan.
Mass cremations are taking place. The cremation grounds are running day and night and they are short on wood. People are watching their loved ones die while waiting for a hospital bed, and then they're unable to give them the proper burial rights.
Hospitals are overwhelmed. Patients are being confined, two to a bed. They're the lucky ones.
We are on the verge of people dying in the streets.
This is the second-most populous country in the world. The largest democracy. A country that encapsulates over 15,000 years of recorded human history and has endured everything from famine to invasion to colonisation.
We might be at the end. This might be the thing that does us in.
People are dying.
People are dying.
People are dying and there is no plan.
More good news? Variants are popping up. A double mutation strain has shown up. It is resistant to current vaccines. This will not go away. This is the devastation they warned of when the anti-maskers were out protesting the minor inconvenience of covering their face in public.
My country is on the verge of an emergency state. Our government has failed us. This is as dire a situation as it ever could be.
Look. I don't do much with my life. I write fics, some of you have read them and that's pretty much it. I spend my days with my head in the clouds because that's where I like to be.
But two days ago, my grandmother tested positive, had to be taken to hospital and the ambulance caught fire.
She barely made it to the urgent care she needs.
So, here I am, using whatever meager platform I have to cobble this request together. Because I have to do something.
If you can, donate.
Or spread the word.
Help. Please.

Hi, i am Abood Al-Qudra, a Palestinian living in Gaza, i am 24 years old, studying Bachelor of Business Administration, and the owner of the brand (Zahrat Al-Khaleej)💔😔
I started working when I was 15 years old due to my family's poor financial situation. My dream and ambition was to achieve my goal at an early age in order to support the family. I worked for a very simple daily wage due to my young age, but after a short period and after the employer noticed my diligence, he promoted me. After that, 1 began my journey towards success and established my own project and brand that includes 22 employees.🥹💔
A few months after the opening, on October 7, 2023, this fierce war broke out and burned all my dreams and ambitions, I lost my own project because of this war that we have been living for more than 330 days, I lost my home and my family's home and I lost many of my family members. Until my friend Mohammed, who lives in Belgium, convinced me to create this link in the hope of compensating for some of my financial losses and helping my family because I am responsible due to my father's old age.😓👇💔
I would like to thank in advance everyone who appreciated and supported me, even a little🙏❤️🍉🥹
I will attach to you some of the destruction that occurred in my workplace, home and place of residence, which caused me and my family to be displaced in a very narrow tent with the extreme heat in the summer, the lack of preparation for the winter, the difficulty of living, and the lack of medicine, food and clean drinking water. This is the reason for these difficult circumstances that led to some family members contracting chronic diseases, and this unfortunately had a negative impact on me because I am the only one responsible for the family.💔😔
Work place now👇😓
My home👇🏠😓
Forced departure👇😔
Please consider donating, even a small amount like 10 or 15 euros, as every contribution makes a difference. If you can't donate, please share my story to help me reach my goal. Your support means the world to me.🙏❤️
post trolley problem stress disorder like someone said on twt
The misuse of the "insult to life itself" quote from Miyazaki on AI burns my yams so bad bc the original context is being disgusted with how a characters movements are dehumanizing to disabled people specifically bc of his empathy for a disabled friend and it's such a sadly rare sentiment, this cognizance of how we casually inflict indignity upon disabled people and how he finds it disgusting, I hate seeing it obfuscated
back to my Jing Beiyuan obsession <3
I actually have had these laying around for awhile and idk any way that I tried to finish them didn't feel right to I instead did some experimenting with value and stuff, making it moody i guess. and rambling as usual. still thinking about making a zine tho...
Hello 👋, I hope you're doing well.. My name is Mahmoud, and I'm a 17-year-old from Gaza. The ongoing war has devastated my city, destroyed my school, and made daily life incredibly challenging. Despite these hardships, I'm determined to continue my education and build a better future. I've been given a chance to study abroad, but I need help to cover the costs of leaving Gaza, as well as living expenses and other essentials abroad once the crossing opens.. If you can, please consider donating or sharing, your kindness can truly make a difference, and thanks for your time. 🙏❤ https://gofund.me/bd3ccf0b
Thank you for sharing this with me Mahmoud. Please donate to his gofundme if you can!
