My name is Mohammed, and I am a math teacher from Gaza. My family and I have lost everything. We were forced to flee our home, and now we live in a tent, struggling to survive. But the pain that haunts me every day is not just our lossβit is the suffering of my precious niece, Asel. π’
Asel is only a young child, but she has already endured horrors that no child should ever have to face. She lost her parents and siblings in an Israeli airstrike. π₯ The explosion took them from us in an instant, leaving Asel alone, broken, and traumatized. She is only a child, but she carries the weight of unbearable grief and fear every day. ππ

Asel is like my daughter now. She holds onto me with the hope that I can protect her, that I can give her a future away from the bombs and violence that surround us. Every night, when she falls asleep in our makeshift shelter, I wonder if she will ever know the warmth and safety of a real home again. ποΈπ
The war in Gaza is destroying everything. It is tearing apart families, killing innocent children, and leaving countless others in despair. We are desperate to escape, to find safety in Egypt when the Rafah crossing opens again. But we cannot do it alone. We need your help. π
We are reaching out for your support so that we can leave Gaza and start anew. Asel deserves to grow up in a place where she is safe, where she can heal from the trauma she has experienced, and where she can dream of a future filled with hope, not fear. π She deserves to go to school, to play, to smile without the weight of war on her shoulders. But we cannot give her that future without your help. β¨π
Please, help us save Aselβs life. Help us get to safety before itβs too late. Every dollar you donate will bring us one step closer to a new beginning, where Asel can find peace, security, and a chance to rebuild her shattered life. πββοΈπ¨
If you cannot donate, please share our story. Spread the word so others can help. Every share counts. Aselβs future is in your hands. π«Ά
Thank you for your kindness, your generosity, and your compassion. We are forever grateful for your support in this time of unimaginable need. πππ

I am Nismah from Gaza. I am
living a real tragedy. I got sick during the war due to the lack of food and medicine, pollution, and the many diseases and epidemics. I suffered from the disease for more than 5 months in Deir al-Balah camp. I was living with my elderly mother, my father who was injured in his foot, my brother Ahmed who has Down syndrome, and my young nieces. There is no milk or food for the little ones who live with us. We have no source of income. Our house was bombed and we were displaced several times. I was transferred to Egypt due to internal bleeding in the colon. I have a chronic immune disease. I am now alone here. There is no one with me, no companion. I need many needs for me and my family, for my elderly mother, my brother Ahmed, and my mother in Gaza. Please help me. Any small donation will make a difference. Your prayers for me. Thank you.

You do not need your Twitter.
Twitter is not the boost you think it is anymore.
I have seen at least 6 people I follow on BlueSky saying they have looked into their numbers and compared to Twitter? BSky gives them over double the exposure and follow through for outside links (probably because Twitter kills your tweet if you have links).
Twitter is testing a feature to allow other users to click a button attached to your posts to put your art into their Grok ai and make ai art with it without your permission automatically.
It is marking non-ai art as being made with Grok (probably to promote it).
You do not need Twitter.
Twitter needs you.
Starve the fuckin thing.

Hey you, do you enjoy Turk Vincent? Do I have a fun little bit of fandom history for you! Do you know these fanarts?
These were all done by the same artist! Their name is Yoneko and they did many, many, many artworks of Vincent starting in the early 2000s but a lot of their most popular works were done between 2013-2017ish.
Many of their Turk Vincent artworks are reposted very often to the point where a good amount of their art is the first thing that comes up when you search "turk vincent" online! But when you see them they're reposted to sites like Pinterest with no credit given or shown anywhere.
Below the keep reading is a collection of a bunch of their most reposted Vincent Valentine arts, as early as 2006, collected from their twitter, pixiv, as well as their old webpages (here[this is the large archive of their work] and here) that I was able to find. Some are a bit spicy so this is your warning.
They are still semi-active on their twitter account and their pixiv account so go check them out their work is obviously still fantastic.
They recently did some Vincent art on their twitter as well!
caption (roughly translated, I do not know japanese): wip I'm drawing Turks Vincent for the first time in about 700 million years, and I was surprised to find that my hands perfectly remembered how to draw hair, etc. I've been drawing for over 10 years, so I guess that's what I've learned.
It's a beautiful day so have some Terra to celebrate. π

how public transportation companies feel after making a psa about "ending harassment in public places" while simultaneously not doing anything to help you when you get harassed on their premises
took me about 2 weeks to finish this but I'm super happy with it
it is my first time making a PMV/Animatic so some of the scenes are a little confusing or maybe out of sync? I did my best (cause Krita was kicking my ass the entire time)
I unfortunately couldn't do subtitles (yet again Krita hates me) but oh well did my best enjoy!
I think that's everything I want to say but to sum it up Krita sucks ass, but I will still continue to use it because I make poor life decisions
(Also, don't repost please!)
