Herbawi Textile Factory In Hebron. The Last Remaining Keffiyeh Factory In Palestine. By Pirates And Plants

If any of you, especially USamericans, have any money to spare, I recommend donating to the From Our Hearts to Cuba campaign, dedicated to getting pacemakers past the blockade. 50 pacemakers have already been installed in patients, they are 75% of the way to the current goal of $250,000. They are part of the broader, global struggle to break the blockade as well, and they outline some of the ways USamericans can help in their website. Cuba already has an exemplary cadre of doctors and a great system, all that they're missing is the essential equipment the US starves them of.

GUMROAD IS BANNING NSFW CONTENT IN THE NEXT 24 HOURS

I haven't seen anyone talk about this yet, so I might as well.

They've updated their content policy to comply with payment processor Stripe and Paypal's censorhip. They gave 24 hours. On March 16th 2024, Gumroad TOS will no longer allows sales of any written or drawn nsfw content.

This is going to hurt for so many creators. Giving that little time leaves people's source of income wildly unstable, especially with such a huge overhaul of what content is allowed.

I hate this. I hate what censorship is turning the internet into. I hate that nsfw content creators keeo getting pushed to the fringes, that they need to digitally migrate so often, because nowhere can be trusted to allow their art for long.

I don't know what to do next, there isn't some sort of "here's what you can do to help!" People just deserve to know.

PSA: Since you can’t switch though different accounts/email logins (that’s a feature people would actually want) I’m going to start using my other/main art account @afroflowerr where I’m hosting the art-raising, fund-gathering for the AlBalawi family/@bisanalbalawi18 for!

I’m logging out of this account, so I won’t see messages or replies as quickly!

I made the game ‘Watermelon Match’ within 48 hours after hearing about the Global Strike for Ceasefire for Palestine on December 11th, 2023. My pixel art and game design may be lacking, but I hope that this is a small reminder to keep going for the people in Palestine and Gaza. 🍉
