please give anything you are able for my friend Omar and his family from Gaza. they lost their home to the zionist army's bombing and had to relocate to a school-turned-shelter that was also threatened by the occupation forces, and had to relocate again, now to just a tent. they have been living out of a tent this whole winter. please help and share
$3,064/$30,000
This campaign was started by @/atute_insp on tiktok and her team Mutual Aim to collect money for the DRC, Sudan, and Tigray. The donations will be divided between the three causes. If you would like do donate but don't have the funds to donate to multiple campaigns, this is a great way to help both the Congo, Sudan, and Tigray.
tomorrow 5/8 i must pay $374.47 of weekly rent. anything helps a lot. please spread.
The image you see is not from a war movie. It's a real X-ray of a Palestinian child. A sniper's bullet pierced her skull. This was not an accident. It was a calculated shot — to the head. How many children must bleed before the world opens its eyes?
I see this, and I tremble. Because I, too, am a mother. My own child is injured. He cries every night from pain. He needs urgent medical care — but we are trapped under siege, under fear, under silence.
How long before my son becomes another X-ray? Another hashtag? Another number?
If you're reading this, you have power — power to share, power to donate, power to care.
Help me get my son out. Help save him before it’s too late. Gaza’s children are not targets. They are lives. They are futures. Please don’t look away
✅️My campaign is vetted by el-shab-hussein& Nabulsi's, my number verified on the list is ( #355)✅️ 👇
So do you think anybody is going acknowledge that Hind Rajab should have been celebrating her 7th birthday today with her family? Do you think anybody is going to acknowledge that?
friend got me into a gacha game bc it released co-op. if i was not doing so poorly mentally i do not think i would be playing it as much as i have been
the met gala is tonight, and i know a lot of us are excited for it. and why not, it's a fun event! but while we're here, please spare some thought for the people of palestine as well. they don't have a platform nearly as big as the met gala does, but they need it more desperately and they need it urgently.
i don't know if any celebrity at the gala is going to mention palestine or speak out for them. but we don't need to wait for a celebrity to show support or tell us what to do. we have power too. every single one of us here has a voice, and the power to uplift others using that voice. we don't need one person to donate thousands. but even if a hundred people donated $5 each that's $500 put towards helping a family survive. and that means more to gazans than i can say.
if you can afford it, please donate to anyone from @gazavetters's spreadsheet (here). if you're uncertain or cannot choose, then please consider:
my friend ibrahim @aburakhiaibrahim (vet | paypal | gfm)
the isnad foundation @isnaddfoundation which provides gazan students with a safe space to study and continue their education (vet | chuffed)
my friend mahmoud @ma7moudgaza2 who is the founder of isnad (paypal | gfm)
if you cannot donate, please reblog so that the post can reach someone who can. thank you.

Mirtilo is a very troubled girl. She left her home behind to search for her missing parents. That same morning, moments later, her cousin Garoa pays her beloved relatives a visit to find them missing almost without a trace! No one is around and there's some evil entity out there. Come along this whimsical, colorful adventure with the two cousins seeking answers at their own pace.
game has original soundtrack composed by me and linear narrative that tackles themes related to racism and abuse.
reed of the lists and warnings. the demo goes up to the end of stage 3. time of completion varies, but it’s roughly bit less than an hour
many many thanks to my co-writer who'd like to remain undisclosed, and @alconteh who helped me animate a scene near the end of Garoa’s scenario. please support Al's work and attend to their twitch streams if you can 💚

Sometimes you need to read something twice to get it. You might need to watch a movie three times to understand it. You might have to have that album on repeat for a week until the lyrics make any sense. You're allowed to engage with it and can keep engaging with it until it means something to you. People will see a painting at a museum and laugh about not getting what the big deal is but like you can come back, you can see it at another time, and maybe that next time it'll be different for you. I'm of the belief the "media literacy crisis" would solve itself if more people just sat down and did it again. Watched, read, played, listened, etc like I don't think people are getting more ignorant necessarily I just think we're not glorifying personally replaying things nearly as much as we should be.
gabriel figure which i finished a year later! it is made of air-hardening clay, covered with primer, painted with acrylic paints and varnished
for the clear stand for those blue things on his head i used a 3d pen and clear plastic
