Today Marks Day 111 Of The Genocide In Gaza.

I don't really have the motivation for a full Valentine's piece so have this

Part two of the art dump

This time we're delving into some OC art as well. The big dragon lady is called Lizzie, she belongs to my friend who doesn't have any socials but if you have any messages for her I'll ferry them through :) . The fellow to the right is an enderman OC I have called Speaker.

@anactualdump my friend @stale-cornflakes suggested I tag you, enjoy the meme. They got me to read through a bit of bsq (which I've learned is the abbreviation for before status quo) and at some point I got this idea. The tree is a censor for the horse btw, for our (sadly not Pol's) safety :)

More art under the cut:

I apologize for the blurry photo here :(

In case you lost it - a link to the eSIM donation guide. Even if you feel sick and powerless, you can at least do this. And even if you really, really can't donate, you can always at least share this and remind others.

What is very strange is that all the American media are talking about breaking into the house of Mark, the owner of the famous squirrel, searching his house and killing his squirrel... I am against this matter and I condemn it just as the American media condemned it, but where is the American media? And its condemnation of what Israel did to the Palestinian people? ..the landowner

There is no harm in sympathizing with this issue and against what the government did to the squirrel, as it is an animal that deserves mercy. I personally love animals very much. Some love them too.

But what the Israeli occupation has been doing for a year and two months, killing, airstrikes and besieging the people of Gaza, has not caught their attention. It is strange that there are still those who support Israel. How come their hearts are not moved when it comes to children and people? Help my family here 👈

I thank the free peoples who support the Palestinian cause. There are many forms of support. Each of you has great love in our hearts, and the American people in particular.

Please continue to support us, we need it most.

To support my family here 🍉👈

there is something horrifically grim to it, but illustrations for gaza and palestinians tend to catch more mass attention that actual photos of people. this made me feel incredibly helpless for a long while, seeing both how people would rather look at a neat drawing of red black green and white than look a human in the eyes, and how online platforms would rather push a viral drawing while suppressing those begging for help at the same time.

a way to cope with this feeling has been taking advantage of it to directly guide people to helping palestinians.

if art gets better traction, then there’s an incredible amount of good that can be done by creating art that immediately links to fundraisers. creating art of the many images of those who are asking for help.

within hours of posting my drawing, there has been jumps in the thousands for bashar from gaza’s fundraiser. it’s a small effort in the grand scheme of things. it’s not a fix it. but it’s something good. please take care of each other and do what you can. i think this could help a lot of people if a lot of people did it.

here is bashar. i’ve drawn him, spoken to him, and known him now for a few months. any shares help, any art helps. draw who you see, draw what you see. thanks all

Donate to Escaping Gaza To Pursue My Dream In Medicine, organized by Darina Bishop

If you would like to confirm the validity of this campaign, you can message… Darina Bishop needs your support for Escaping Gaza To Pursue My

‼️Please Read. After a discussion with my Cousin we decided to start up a pilot Soup kitchen in Al Hitana Omdurman serving lentil stew fortified with peanut butter to double the available calories in the stew as well as bread.

The kitchen has been running for 3 days now and has served on average 80 people a day, representing 80 households so potentially we’ve been helping 400 people a day.

Over 90% of those who have shown up to the kitchen over the past 3 days have been women and Children and for some it will be the only meal they get that day.

From tomorrow we’d like to scale up to making two 65 litre pots of stew a day which is 160 servings (households).

Currently we’ve purchased enough supplies to run the kitchen at full capacity for two weeks but we’d like to make this a permanent thing and that needs external support.

If you would like to support this project and help this kitchen to continue working, then please donate to this gofundme which will be providing the funding support

This list is not exhaustive. There are bodies under the rubble, missing from the death count, there are stories of atrocities gone unreported. Let that sink in, that this is not even the full extent of what has occurred since the truce agreement expired. The children of Gaza have gone back to living in fear, constantly hearing the sounds of warplanes over their heads. The people of Gaza have gone back to expecting to die.

It is far from time to lose steam. This is not over just because the bombing stopped for a week. The genocide continues and has been ramped up. Do not stop talking about Palestine. Do not stop bearing witness to what is happening. Do not stop demanding that it ends.

The Israeli occupation has killed more than 154 Palestinians since the ceasefire began, violating all agreements and commitments. The bodies of the martyrs pile up, homes are destroyed over their inhabitants, and massacres continue relentlessly. Yet, the media remains silent, as if our lives are unworthy of being told, as if our blood is nothing more than numbers lost in the flood of news

But what if a single Israeli were killed? Headlines would ignite, condemnations would pour in, and the world would mourn the loss. Meanwhile, we are slaughtered daily, entire families are erased, our homes are mercilessly bombed, and the skies rain fire upon our children and mothers

We ask for nothing but the right to live, yet it is stolen from us with brutal force. Under this suffocating siege, soaring prices, and the blockade of crossings, we are in desperate need of your support

Stand with us in this time of hardship. Every contribution can save a life, and every voice can help the world hear our suffering. Do not leave us alone in the face of this injustice

RAFAH, Gaza Strip (AP) — More than half a million people in Gaza — a quarter of the population — are starving, according to a report Thursday by the U.N. and other agencies that highlights the humanitarian crisis caused by Israel’s bombardment and siege on the territory in response to Hamas’ Oct. 7 attack. The extent of the population’s hunger eclipsed even the near-famines in Afghanistan and Yemen of recent years, according to figures in the report. The report warned that the risk of famine is “increasing each day,” blaming the hunger on insufficient aid entering Gaza. “It doesn’t get any worse,’’ said Arif Husain, chief economist for the U.N.’s World Food Program. “I have never seen something at the scale that is happening in Gaza. And at this speed.” ... At the start of the war, Israel stopped all deliveries of food, water, medicine and fuel into the territory. After U.S. pressure, it allowed a trickle of aid in through Egypt. But U.N. agencies say only 10% of Gaza’s food needs has been entering for weeks. (Dec. 21, 2023 | Source)
