Cut Through The Noise

A four-page comic for a poem called "Cut Through the Noise". The colours are taken from the Palestine flag.

"There's a lot of noise right now
Screams dehumanizing poor souls
Groans from those in willful ignorance"

Against a red background, a white-coloured Muslim woman wearing a hijab and a dress clutches her face and looks up with horrified eyes. Surrounding her are spiky bubble outlines and shadows of upside-down angular snakes that have the head of a human crossing each other. The snake on the left is rolling its eyes and thinking of scribbles. The snake on the right is furiously yelling. The spiky speech bubbles next to it feature blood in the first one, a puddle of blood next to two Xs in the second one, and a pair of eyes above a knife dripping with blood.
"People digging deeper and deeper holes
And it's overwhelming, it really is
I do not blame you
Sometimes you feel that your voice is too small
I feel that way too"

Against a red background is a shadow of a deep hole with the Muslim woman at the bottom, hugging her knees. Above, an IDF soldier looks down, holding a rifle. The text of the poem goes down the hole.
"But despite that, I urge you to keep going
And demand for what's right
Even it sounds like a whimper
You're still joining in the fight"

Three panels with a red background in the panels and a black background for the page. In the first panel, a green-coloured arm comes out from the screen and into the panel, offering her hand to the Muslim woman who is surprised. In the second panel, the green-coloured woman is revealed to be a resistance fighter wearing the keffiyeh as she grabs the edge of the panel and etends her hand outside the panel. The third panel is a close-up shot of the Muslim woman grabbing the resistance fighter's arm.
"And soon the rest of us will join
We can stand together here
We can cut through the white noise
And make our message clear"

Above the page is black cracking into the red background. Below the text is the resistance fighter looking determined as she grips the hand of the Muslim woman, now also coloured green, who looks very glad to see her. Behind them is a shouting crowd protesting for Palestine. Some of them hold signs saying "CEASEFIRE NOW" and "From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free".

Cut Through The Noise

Even as the strike ends, the Palestinian genocide has not.

Now more than ever, there are so many conflicting voices. People with their own self-serving, hateful motivations speak over us, and sometimes our own voices can turn against us. We may feel like our voice isn't enough or we aren't doing enough.

This is why it's so important to learn to shut down that noise. No matter how much people scream that what we're doing is useless or a waste of time, keep talking. Keep talking about Palestine. Keep talking about Palestine for as long as this goes on, both online and in real life. If Israel won't end their genocide, we won't end our protest.

Below is a list of what you can do and the poem transcript.

IMPORTANT. I AM BEGGING YOU READ.

i don’t normally do this but it’s come to my attention that i’m now in dire need of help and it has failed me anywhere else, and tonight, it has reached another scary conclusion.

all i ask is that you lend me an ear, just for one moment. i won’t take up much of your time.

hi, i go by the nickname ghostie, and i am 19. i live in an abusive household with my mother. my father does not live with us, and nor do i want him to as my relationship with him is strained at best due to his past gaslighting, emotional abuse, and neglect. i do not talk to my father unless it is needed and even then, it always ends with me in tears and another piece of trauma, so i try to stay away. i have tried to search and find a home for myself where i could, but the system has failed me when i needed it most, and my mother has prevented me, throughout my life, from doing things that might’ve gotten me out sooner.

if any of you have genuinely enjoyed my works and are willing, or are able, i do have a ko-fi, and a paypal and for any amount of you donate, since i am half a writing and half a music blog, i can try to write something for you or make you a playlist in return, and we can work out the details here through private messages. please understand, might take a while as i am currently walking on eggshells shells so i do not have harm come to me or any of the items i need in my daily life.

it’s not by any means an obligation for you to donate, it’s only if you can and are willing, but every amount helps, any amount brings me closer to escaping and finding a place where i do not have to sleep with my pocket knife under my pillow for my protection, my taser hidden in my shoes as a last option, or recite self defense practices in my head with every step in my own home.

if you cannot donate, all i ask is that you reblog or share however you can, as that will get this seen and i can possibly, hopefully, see a light at the end of my tunnel.

thank you for reading, for your time, and your kindness.

i love you all.

pairing: shouta aizawa x f!reader summary: You’re not expecting your day to fall to pieces at 8:21 a.m., but life hasn’t really been going your way lately. A string of lackluster dates, followed by two dead vibrators (with missing cords!), and the only outlet left for your mounting sexual frustration—the smut blog you diligently update—has been discovered by the one person you never wanted to find it: fellow teacher Shouta Aizawa. Who might just be the inspiration behind most of the fantasies you post about. content warnings: coworkers-to-lovers, mutual pining, idiots in love, forced proximity, there was only bed trope, explicit smut, phone sex, bondage, impact play, degradation, use of slut and whore, D/s, subspace, aftercare

Bisan's recent post. I think it's important for you to read it. Tonight 03.12.23, journalists in gaza share their last messages. There are no words to describe the horrors unfolding in gaza right now.

Bisan's Recent Post. I Think It's Important For You To Read It. Tonight 03.12.23, Journalists In Gaza

I no longer have any hope of survival like I had at the beginning of this genocide, and I am certain that I will die in the next few weeks or maybe days. I have been sick with severe viral infection for days and cannot move from the mattress!

I suffer from nightmares that are so closely resemble reality that I no longer differentiate between reality and dream.

I live in a world other than the one I claimed to be building! I am a community activist who lived on the fantasy that the world was free and just, and I sought to bring rights not only to my people, but to many men and women in third world countries!

I was shocked that I was not from the third world! Indeed, we are the most humane and moral! Yes, because the world approves, supports, and finances the genocide we are being subjected to, legislates it, and gives reasons for for 58 days! While we are a people who have been living on occupied land for 75 years and are still searching for our rights and communicating our voice to the world!

My message to the world: You are not innocent of what is happening to us, you as governments or peoples that support Israel’s annihilation of my people. We will not forgive you, we will not forgive you, humanity will not forgive you, we will not forget, even if we die, the history will never forget .

A Message to friends: Thank you and the supporters around the world. You have been compassionate and very strong. We ask you not to lose hope, even if the world seems completely unfair and your efforts have not yet resulted in a ceasefire.

Hello, I am Amira, not a robot, and I only need two minutes of your time.

Can you support my campaign? I’m not asking for a financial donation, but I need you to adopt the campaign and spread it consistently. I want you to embrace it with all your heart. Imagine yourself in my place, watching my mother so ill, and I can’t help her. She moves between camps and shelters, barely able to walk from exhaustion. I am unable to provide her medicine. We are living in a dark, freezing place, and the sounds of bombing terrorize us.

I am asking you to share my story and ask the world: Can you help us provide treatment for my mother and buy blankets to relieve the cold? Just 5 euros can make a big difference for us.

Please carry this campaign in your heart and give it everything you’ve got. Your help means there is still hope, and that goodness still exists. Please don’t hesitate, we need you.

Help

Playing truth or dare with your friends has them asking you who you have a crush on not knowing your eyes immediately drifted to deku’s. Having had a crush on him for years it’d be pointless to say it now, especially since he’s so popular. He’s the #1 hero, he could have anyone, why would he want his stupid childhood friend? So instead you drink, your cheeks burning hot because you can feel his eyes on you. Everyone boos and shouts complaints at your silence but you just giggle and say “it’s gonna take a few more shots for me to spill that kind of secret” and certainly a few shots later Izuku had you under him while his cock fucks into your gushing hole from behind while he watches your reactions in the bathroom mirror. He’s got his hand on your jaw so you can keep looking at yourself while he asks you, “who is it hm? Katsuki? Kirishima? Just tell me who you’re thinkin’ about right now” and you’re all teary eyed pussy throbbing from your second orgasm while you whine, “it’s you! It’s you! Always been..love you ‘zuku” and he has to slow his hips down just to make sure he doesn’t bust too quick because he feels the way his balls squeeze at the confession of your love and the way his cock twitches inside of you at the sound of his name falling from your drooling mouth. Ah fuck his heart is squeezing in his chest because the girl of his dreams just said she loved him.
