Palestinian girls and women are forced to use tents as pads. People boost. Donate if you can
every single time israel fires on people picking up food or humanitarian aid it truly cuts me to the core. obviously it's equally horrible to fire on civilians escaping the invasion or to bomb hospitals or refugee camps or people just living in their own homes. but there's something so brutal about hitting people right when they have gathered for life-saving aid. by firing on them there the IOF have set up an impossible dilemma where starving people have to choose between death by bullet or death by hunger. they have left no room for palestinians to choose life. i do not know how my government or any other government can just sit by and watch while innocent people continue to be gunned down for the crime of existing in israel's eyeline.
today's vetted campaigns. please please continue to share and donate. i know lots of my posts are like this now, but we can't lose energy. these families need us.

i know link-heavy posts like this can seem like a lot, but if you can pick even just one of these fundraisers to donate to or promote today, it makes a difference
i genuinely hate how people have to sit and write a post that stands out while boosting a fundraiser because most people won't bat an eye at the misery and inhumane conditions Palestinians are living in.
i see people making art and telling others to use it because fundraisers with art are generally reblogged more often. i see people using colored text in order to make the post more eye catching.
palestinians on instagram are using popular audios and stitch trending reels at the beginning to make the world pay attention to them. imagine having to make something look entertaining in order to survive.
they are living under constant threat of israeli airstrikes, bombing, scarcity of food and disease. many have lost a lot in the past few months.
palestinians on tumblr are posting their pictures and the horrible conditions in which they are living. they travel long distances for internet connection only to be called a scammer by some privileged ass who cannot locate gaza on a map.
here are some verified gfms. please share the linked posts. it's the bare minimum we can do from the comforts of our home.

don't loose hope, there is love in life, there is community. people are coming together to protest all over the world, people are finding solidarity with each other even among the horror, people want to help. over the course of hours i saw hundreds come together from all over the world online to buy e-sim cards for the gaza reporters (they've succeeded in getting internet access to key online press reporters and are working to connect more), i've seen stories of people coming together in their grief and joy. despite the darkness there really is love. and i do believe that it is fundamental to the human condition.

Taken from twitter. If you were curious here are some of the inspirations I used when creating Paralysis (Aka my Antasma based exe)Β
The first bit of inspiration comes from an exe made by twitter user JeyoJaJa (Not sure if they have a tumblr or not) named Freakazoid. While I havenβt kept up with their lore. I love the design and the style used for it. So when making the image of paralysis. I wanted him to have the same sort of creepy vibe. If I succeeded at that. Itβs up to you to decide. But I think I did an alright design with the first version.
The second bit of inspiration comes from a DC villain known as Doctor destiny. Basically he gained possession of an artifact known as the Dreamstone. allowing him to manipulate dreams and, as revealed in the sandman graphic novel. During an encounter with the justice league he was left unable to dream and became all outstretched. While I havenβt read the sandman series. I loved the irony of a dream manipulator not being able to sleep himself. So I basically lifted that and doctor destiny's motivation of wanting to dream again for Paralysis. The third bit of inspiration comes from well...Sleep Paralysis. I mean come on, the guy is named paralysis after all (that and I wanted to name him after a sleeping condition) and sleep paralysis just happened to fit the best. IT also vaguely inspired the state his victims are left in during an encounter and frankly. Paralysis basically being a sleep paralysis demon just fits in my humble opinion. This may seem odd but Paralysis is also based on our ability to scare the shit out of ourselves for lack of better words. As an example, have you ever mistaken a bundle of clothes for a person lying on your floor? Or though something was gonna jump out and scare you fnaf style. Thatβs the kind of horror I wanted to invoke with Paralysis. How his method of fearmongering relies on the victims minds wandering and conjuring up their own demons. I though itβd be a unique for an exe to do that. Mix that with me adoring Antasma growing up and thus, Paralysis was born.
For some other factoids. While I havenβt written down a fully fleshed out origin for Paralysis. I was thinking of basing paralysis on some kind of sleep based god/entity. Such as the slavic godess Moranna or some other deity. Iβve also considered making Paralysis a human at one point that got warped. But those are just ideas with nothing concrete as of now. But regardless, I hope you enjoyed this ramble. Make sure to check in for more art, lore and other things. Have a wonderful day or night.

PLEASE reblog this video about the Kelloggs boycott
the basic TLDR is that if enough people stop buying Kelloggs cereal, we have an ACTUAL chance at bankrupting this company. You don't even have to boycott their other products, like Pringles. We're just working on the cereals right now. There are an incredible amount of alternatives to Kelloggs, so you wouldn't even have to change your shopping that much. Brands like General Mills, Post, and store brands are still perfectly fine.
The MOST IMPORTANT part of this is that the boycott must last for a longer portion of time, say 6 months to a year, in order to have any actual effect on Kelloggs.
Kelloggs has made comments about how the working class should be eating cereal for dinner. Literally dystopian. If we were to damage this company with our boycotts, it would send a serious message to other corporations. This is such a simple way to show that we DO have power, and that the rich AREN'T invincible.
eat the rich not Kelloggs cereal
if anyone wants to add captions/a transcript, it would be greatly appreciated!!
