Seeing footage of the aftermath of the flour massacre in Gaza is so painful
"Where is my daughter? Tell her I don't want flour anymore"
"My brother was shot holding a bag of flour. He kept holding on to it so they kept shooting him"
"Why does flour have to be stained with blood?"
Over 100 have been killed. Every single one of them hungry. Every single one of them has someone waiting for them to come back with the bag of flour.
Israel is using starvation as a weapon of war against innocent civilians. Israel ambushes starving Palestinians and shoots them. Israel is not fighting a war to defend itself. This is another episode of Israel's ongoing genocide in Gaza.
btw if u don't wanna be a girl u can just not be a girl. if u don't wanna be a boy u can just not be a boy. likewise for being a woman or a man or any gender that has ever existed.
there's no test you need to pass or license u need to hold to trans your gender - you can just decide one day that u feel like doing something different. if ur waiting for permission, i'm giving u permission. go be happy.
the flour massacre is ongoing. it is everyday. it was not an isolated event. it was not even the first time israel shot at and killed palestinians going for aid (they do it whenever they allow aid through). in fact, they did the exact same thing yesterday morning. just because smaller-scale murders go under the radar for lack of shock factor doesn’t mean they’re not happening continuously.
RIP. Aaron Bushnell I hope I can help spread your message like wildfire
Aaron Bushnell it's trending. His name is trending. His screams of Free Palestine weren't in vain. Because Tumblr can try and censore palestinian blogs, and keep palestine from trending, but we will always find a way to bring revolution to the world.
Fucking Free Palestine
Fuck yeah, these stores are also psting warnings on products letting customers know the contents have shrunk but the prices have remained the same.
These corporations have had record profits in the last few years. Inflation is not the cause of rising prices,its greed
The reason the establishment is so terrified of Aaron Bushnell's protest, is because they understand a point many of you seem to have missed
Aaron wasn't sending a message to the government (we know they don't care)
No, I think Aaron's message was meant for other service people like him. Because if the military refuses to participate in the genocide, it's over
And if you thought YOU were moved by Aaron's actions...
imagine how Aaron's unit is feeling right now
Mutinies have started for less
The exact moment every protest turns into a revolution, is when the army refuses to defend the establishment any longer.
And THAT was the message Aaron was sending out. How many units now are ready to reject orders? How low does their morale have to sink before they say 'enough!' How long until they stop pointing guns at the protestors outside, and run over and join them instead?
This is dangerous territory for a government that is hellbent on ignoring every crisis it creates
it honestly both moves me and breaks my heart that it seems to be the people who’re living paycheck to paycheck who’re going out of their way to donate periodically, whereas rich people are basically lauded for doing as little as liking posts that kind of insinuate… kind of hint… kind of wink at supporting Palestine. here’s a PSA that the wealthier you are, the more responsible you are for consistent donations—and not just a one-and-done to ease your conscience. yes, you do have a responsibility to donate if you have the means. no, hyperindividualism can’t save you with this one. you should be feeling indignant that your rich friends would rather drop thousands on products but barely anything on Palestinian aid. you should be heckling them to do more. this is everybody’s fight—whether they like it or not.
i still cannot get it out of my head that a police officer pointed a gun and screamed "get on the ground" repeatedly when faced with a young man burning alive. its been like 12h since i saw the video and it keeps coming back to me. you literally could not ever make this up
if someone wrote this scene as a political metaphor ppl would roll their eyes, as if as if as if. and it just happened. the arm of the state that holds a gun knows nothing but killing even when faced with death itself
Made these to be printed as posters and stickers for anyone who wants ❤
🇵🇸 From BDS:
More than 300 Palestinian sports teams are calling to ban Israel from the Olympics over its genocide against Palestinians in Gaza. [...] In Gaza, Israel has killed Palestinian Olympic Football coach Hani Al Masdar, destroyed the Palestinian Olympic Committee offices, and turned sports facilities into shameful mass detention and torture centers. We can’t sit back as the IOC allows Israel to use the Olympics to sportswash its genocide in Gaza and its apartheid regime against Palestinians everywhere. Support the call from Palestinian teams. Join the campaign to #BanIsrael from the Olympics and peacefully disrupt the road to the Paris 2024 games.
Global days of action planned for March 15-17:
Ahead of the IOC executive board meeting in Lausanne Switzerland (March 19-21), take the call from Palestinian teams to your National Olympic Committee, International Sports Federations and Recognized Sports Federations. Organize protests, sit-ins, peaceful disruptions, or awareness raising events on Israeli attacks on Palestinian sports.
For more concrete information on how you can participate in the campaign, see the link above. You should also check in with your local BDS-affiliated organization(s) to see if they have anything planned for these dates (if they don't, consider bringing it up to them)
If you're not familiar with any BDS-affiliated organizations in your country (or state/city), then take a look at BDS's "Join a Campaign'"page.
There's also a petition you can sign.
in light of israel's looming invasion on rafah, south africa implored the icj to call for the protection of palestinians with new preliminary orders. the icj denied this request, insisting that its january orders would be sufficient enough in ensuring the safety of people residing in rafah.
we have all seen how israel responded to the icj verdict earlier this month. they have all but intensified their attacks on palestinians, their favorite of whom seem to be children. this will end in a bloodbath. palestinians, already malnourished and living in literal tents, will be bombarded, they will be shot, they will be slaughtered. and when i say palestinians, a lot of them are actual toddlers. the videos coming out of this are proof enough.
at this point, it has been made amply clear that palestinians will never experience safety in their own homeland. a lot of the families in gaza are trying to raise funds to get out of it, because there's nowhere left to go.
there is nowhere left to go. if these people don't get the funds necessary to escape, they will die.
it's vital that you go to operation olive branch's spreadsheet, choose a family that resonates with you, and donate as much as you can to their gofundme. every last dollar counts. one dollar could be the difference between life and death for a family. please don't fall victim to the bystander effect. your contribution counts, however little it may be. and whether you're able to donate or not, spread this to as many people as you can. each second we stay silent is a second an entire family is brutally massacred.
They are already selling data to midjourney, and it's very likely your work is already being used to train their models because you have to OPT OUT of this, not opt in. Very scummy of them to roll this out unannounced.
go to settings > to the right, under "Blogs," pick the blog you want to change the settings of > scroll down to visibility settings > turn on "Prevent third-party sharing for [blog url]" > do this for each individual blog you have
Don't take this lying down! Fuck Tumblr feeding AI our posts. Opt-out now! Leave them nothing to work with.
On mobile it's under visibility settings. On browser it's under blog settings. I opted out on browser and I had to do it for each side blog individually. I'm assuming it's the same on mobile.

Aaron Bushnell's final social media post before his self-immolation.
If you're going to do something similar you have to make sure the store knows you're targeting Israeli products specifically
to all the people going "taylor swift is just a singer, how is she supposed to end the genocide in palestine?" you're right, she cannot. but, she can influence the right people to do something. she posts one link telling people to register to vote and over 35,000 people registered. ticketmaster fucks over her fans during presale for her tour and it ends up being a subject of discussion in the us house senate. when people created ai fakes of her, the white house tweeted about it. last night, in about 10 minutes over 400,000 people liked her tweet announcing her new album. think about how many people she could reach if she tweeted about a ceasefire, specifically the "right" people ie the people with power. think about how much money she could raise if she posted a donation link on IG. she's already a republican talking point, she could leverage the fact that politicians constantly have her name in their mouth and call for a ceasefire. she has reach, she has a voice, she has influence, she has an audience, and she is not using it.
Some good news
Things I'd love for the Internet to leave in 2023:
• misusing the word "delusional" or saying "delulu"
• public freakout videos that are just someone displaying psychotic symptoms
• "I'm in your walls" and other paranoia triggering "jokes"
• schizoposting
• misusing the word "psychotic"
• baiting and triggering people online who are openly psychotic or displaying psychotic symptoms
• excluding schizo-spec and psychotic people from any neurodiversity/mental illness awareness
Let's just all try to be better to schizo-spec and psychotic people. And hold others accountable as well.

holocaust memorial day is coming up and this is only a reminder that if there's one thing western countries will do, is that they will watch hundreds and millions of people die will not intervene and then decades later say that this is "a horrific event" and "to remember the holocaust is a way to never repeat it". how about the people in Gaza? over 25,000 people have died due to Israel's constant bombing and attacks and not one western country has intervened. western media has skewed the narrative, often calling Gaza as hamas-run or they'll mention the fact that girls and women have no source of hygiene products but won't say why that's happened, (because Israel has banned any and all medical supplies coming into the Gaza strip (which is a WAR CRIME btw)) it's sickening how ironic it all is, when they say they'll never forget the holocaust when one is quite literally unfolded under they're eyes
