Via my game dev Twitter @bloomzeye that I forgot to share here 😅: “Here’s a lil’ peek of what’s in my ✨early access✨ blog post on Buy Me a Coffee, about my newest character design for the Devtober game jam, Leafette!”
[Image Description: On the left is a pen sketch of a character with a leaf for a head, wearing circle earrings. On the right is a pixel art drawing of the same character with a brown leaf for a head, wearing red earrings and a green sweater. END ID]
Because of the looming invasion and brutal bombing throughout the most densely populated area in Gaza, Rafah, many refugees are looking to evacuate to Khan Younis!
The bombing is random and even the areas not included in the evacuation notices are bombarded. Many refugees are asking Hussam for funds to help them evacuate to Khan Younis to help keep their families safe.
The above is a screenshot of a facebook post from someone in Rafah. A tent can be as much as $700 and the transportation costs anywhere between $250-$400 per family. This cost is primarily for gas alone!!
Please donate so that people may be able to evacuate while also being able to afford basic necessities.
Even if you're unable to donate, please share this post and the fundraiser even outside of tumblr and on other platforms! This is incredibly urgent!!
Donate to our GoFundMe which goes directly to Hussam, who manages camps in Rafah, with NO middleman in between!

The United States Senate rejected the resolution Bernie Sanders proposed that would have stopped US funding to Israel until a report was done on investigating whether Israel was committing human rights violations against Gaza with a vote of 72 against and 11 in favour
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.
Because of the dire situation and famine in North Gaza, our friend Hussam from Rafah decided to keep helping by directing 20% of all donation (starting March 11) to Mahmoud AbuSalama and his team in the North who were able to buy all what you see in his video above. So far, he received $5000 since Ramadan started.
Both Hussam and Mahmoud are so grateful and humbled by your continuous support which is helping so many families in the North and the South. Let's keep up the pace everybody!
Please note that Ramadan target of $50k started the first day of Ramadan on March 11 and the first $100k was donated and spent throughout the couple months before Ramadan.

If I had I nickel for every time I saw a lil calf with a heart of her forehead collecting flowers for her mama, I’d have two nickels!!!
Last year in May, I made a small pixel art game about a lil cow with a heart on her forehead who collects flowers for her mama 🐄💐💖 I love hearts and I really wanted to draw a cow character that day
[Image Description: A pixel art graphic of a green grass and flowers background. The title at the top reads "strawberry's flowers" with the words "on itch.io!" underneath. The title is in red text with a white outline, dark red dots inside and green stems at the top of each letter to mimic a strawberry. On the left of the title is an animation of a small cow wearing a blue dress. The cow has dark eyes, tiny horns, brown fur with pinkish-white spots, and a spot on her forehead in the shape of a heart. On the right of the title is a group of flowers. At the bottom of the image is a red play button. End ID]
A heart shaped friend 🐮 she is picking flowers for her mums flower shop!! (i will be posting more about her and her family!)
Hello,
My name is Mohammed from Gaza. Due to the war in Gaza, I lost my mother, father, and brothers. My children and I were injured. I appeal to you to protect my children and take them out of Gaza and help me complete my treatment abroad because my leg is at risk of amputation due to the lack of necessary treatment 😭. My wife is suffering from uterine cancer and hasn't received a chemotherapy session since the beginning of the events in Gaza. I humbly request a donation of €5 or more for my innocent children. My campaign has been documented and my data verified. I am not a robot or a scammer, and you can verify my story by requesting any information you need. Please donate and share my story.
My wife, children, and I are waiting for your donations.
Thank you very much. 🙏🙏
Mohammed has been verified by @el-shab-hussein and @90-ghost, and I encourage people to match my donation! His GFM is under 300 donations!

Inside the frame is a white-colored character with no features or details, that has a circle head floating above a dome-shaped body. On the right to the character is a white oval with two lines pointing down out from it, representing a table. On the table is a white apple with two vertical eyes, facing the character. The words “eat?” is animating in and out of the camera, every other frame. END Image description]
