letter to theo by vincent van gogh
as you may know, israel has begun its ground operation in rafah. they dropped leaflets last night ordering people to evacuate, and bombing in east rafah has already begun.
The border is about to become unreachable.
Rafah is trapped.
We have literal hours until no-one, all the GoFundMe's you've scrolled past, all the people desperately begging on TikTok, will be able to escape.
Give now. Give whatever you can.
I am fundraising for the Odeh family, which is only 3k away from meeting its goal.
you will not get another chance.
AI disturbance overlays for those who don't have Ibis paint premium. found them on tiktok
I have come up with a better metaphor than “you can’t pour from an empty cup” for burnout. You can’t boil an empty kettle. Pouring from an empty cup just gets you nowhere. Trying to boil an empty kettle can ruin the kettle, the stove, and burn down your house if you keep trying it.
Am I the only one who noticed this? I think Mao Mao also fits in on the aroace part, what other characters fit in?

Ryoko Kui saying that Mithrun is living happily doing his hobby post-canon is so important to me
Like I have a whole fic to write about this, but I adore Kui’s redemption arcs, so to speak. And that’s not even the right word, imo, like the point isn’t that Mithrun had to redeem himself (despite what he himself might have thought); the point is that he deserves to be happy just like anyone else. That he accepts himself and starts to heal and can achieve a fulfilling life.

watch for this as you scroll social media this evening:
israel today dropped a bomb on a refugee camp located in rafah, which, as a reminder, had been sold as a safe zone.
remember that this camp is made of tents, not buildings. this strike was dropped directly on families in the dead of night, with no shelter to protect them. many people have become trapped by the burning tents. we don't have a death toll yet, but it's likely more than 50.
the images coming out from this attack are among the most graphic we have seen out of gaza. do not look them up unprepared.
