A Compilation of Palestinians to Donate To

As you all are aware, this blog explicitly stands with Palestine during the yet ongoing genocide done by Israel. Because I've made my stance clear, several Palestinians on Tumblr have reached out to me to help spread their campaigns and get them aid. I've tracked down verifications for as many as i could, and will list them all here with links and update this list should another be sent in.

I cannot stress this enough. As of writing this, the siege on Gaza has been happening for almost a year. Most non-profit organizations at this point have incredibly limited reach in the area (if they still have any at all), and thus the most surefire way of helping is via sending money directly to those impacted. If you for whatever reason doubt the legitimacy of a campaign listed here, I humbly request you keep it to yourself. I cannot decide for you what you do with your money, but I can ask of you that you have respect for people struggling and be considerate.

As a kid that came from a 'She loves me, she loves me so much it hurts. I just wish she was a better Mother so loving her back didn't feel so hard' relationship with my own mom I latched on to Kurt and Rouge so, so hard as a kid. I felt their pain, their conflict, but every time I saw Raven... I couldn't help but love her, couldn't help seeing my mom in her. It doesn't help that Mystique is actually her favorite right behind Storm. It's my own inside 'joke', my mom will always love me just like Raven will always love Kurt and Anna but she was never the mother they needed her to be, especially when they needed her the most. Maybe I won't always feel like her little Nightcrawler, but for now, I don't mind it so much, I have my own Rouge after all (even comes with their own Gambit) and he's the best big brother in the world.

I think the ideas that

“Raven is a bad parent”

And

“Raven loves their children”

Can and should co exist. I will never sit here and say Mystique is a good parent, but I think acting like they don’t love their children is just being willfully ignorant of their characterization since the 80s.

I see a lot of people try to claim Raven doesn’t care about their kids. I actually think they care a LOT, it just, doesn’t deter their actions. And they’re not a good parent, don’t get me wrong, but that doesn’t mean they don’t love Kurt and Rogue and I think trying to claim they don’t actually does away with a lot of Raven’s character nuance.

A lot of the tragedy and depth of their relationships come from the fact that Raven DOES love their children, but it’s not enough. And Kurt and Anna Marie know that, and that’s part of the tragedy of it too.

I’m not a Mystique defender, but I am a Raven Darkhölme characterization realist. A lot of people flatten their character to add more sympathy to Kurt’s story especially, which feels kinda iffy to me. But that’s for another post.

From a storytelling perspective, it adds so much more depth and tragedy to all characters involved to not make the relationship so shallow and one sided as “Oh Mystique doesn’t love them”, and even to juxtapose Raven’s relationship to them with Irene’s is a whole other thing I may talk about one day. But like, you do the story injustice to flatten it down to just “Oh Mystique sucks”

Tl;dr - Raven Darkhölme is a shitty parent but they do love their kids. And that’s the whole tragedy of the thing

I love everything about this but I absolutely adore the detail of the faded tattoo ink and how the scars shift to match the skin loosing elasticity 💙💙💙 it's truly beautiful. I love when artists draw younger characters getting to their older years and still show love for them in their designs. Again beautiful.

Zosan through the ages

some notes:

Sanji’s chest scar is from when Zoro stabbed him through the heart making good on a certain promise (dont worry he got better)

everyone got the Mugiwara Jolly Roger as a tattoo after Luffy became king of the pirates. Not everyone got them on the shoulder but Zoro and Sanji like to mirror each other.

Sanji grew out his beard and started braiding it as a tribute to Zeff after the old fart finally passed away. Zoro is of the opinion that he could’ve found literally any other way to pay tribute.

Zoro’s arm got chopped off when he finally lost his title as world’s greatest swordsperson to a determined young upstart (she and Zoro have since become good friends). Now he just has to use two sword style at most, like a normal person.

By the time he’s 70 Sanji’s voice sounds like straight gravel from all the smoking, to the point where he’s actually a bit hard to understand when he’s talking fast.

Once he no longer had to defend his title Zoro fully indulged in retirement and being *very* well fed, though Sanji is keeping an eye on his salt intake, and the alcohol cabinet is nigh Zoro proof.

I had to power through drawing the young and trim version of them to get to the REAL PRIZE, OLD MEN AWOOOOGA

@the-heaminator I both love and hate to inform you that Azul, is in fact, a 17 year old boy. He is from a Disney gacha game called 'Twisted Wonderland' and he's one of the best designed characters in the game, my opinion only ofc, and the artist drew him really cool and slightly scary which is perfect for Azul 's evil sea witch vibes here (he's meant to imulate Ursula). Do with this newfound knowledge as you will. Bye-bye!

(this won't help him to get his fins back at all)

Hey @kingstrawberry you're absolutely fucking right! Yama is Tsuki's soulmate platonic or otherwise, he will literally die without that dude. Tsuki can't do shit when it comes to normal human interaction without being an ass or awkward. He literally needs Yama around and fate knew that when they wrote this neverending love story. The romance is the side character roles meanwhile the whole story focuses on Yama trying to get them through the paces without tragedy befalling all of them.

Two lovers have reincarnated throughout history, destined to find each other and fall in love all over again. There’s also this third guy that reincarnates alongside them… we don’t really know what he does.

This absolute baby right here is my fave. It's more for a sentimental reason than any other but that's okay I love them a lot!

After Cubchoo it would be Leafeon, Sobble, Alolan Vulpix, and Frillish's male variant. There's obviously a whole lot more that I love but for now those are my top babies

The Yaelokre picrew got taken down literally right after my partner made an oc 😭 my poor boy didn't save his character but I made him one the night before so we're trying to piece together how it looked using mine as a reference. Here's the picrew I made for my partners and I

I hope the picrew gets put back up at some point but for now I'm gonna be drawing my version of these lil guys!

This is exactly how I picture him and as someone that is in love with both cuphead and twist this was truly beautiful to witness 💙💙💙

So remember how I bought a motion activated night light for the toilet? Well the cats seem to have discovered it. So I went to for a late night piss and was greeted to an ominous sight

[kaicat-love]

Average sketchbook of someone with no set art style and no motivation to finish art pieces after basic sketches

Well at least my brain is happy with literally only Sanji sketches all over the place

[kaicat-love]

Sanji is that employee that can deal with any asshole old man or dumbass teen boy but the minute a Karen or spoiled girl walks in "Robin, Robin I need help. She said I tried to poison her cause she's allergic to peanuts but she ordered peanut butter ice cream! Help😭" And here comes work Mama Robin to the rescue of her little emo duckling because someone has to look out for this child. She pulls the "Anyways you are now loitering and if you do not leave I will call the authorities or handle you myself. Have a nice day 😊"

the sanji and robin dynamic to me is just, a woman in her late 20s and a teenager that work at baskin robins together and became work besties

[kaicat-love]

They're only sketches but I think he came out cute in both I hope you like him!

Also my MerMay Sanji sketch for the day (I know the fish looks ugly af but it's just a sketch no one come for me!)

Right now i'm inside your brain, I'm telling you to draw Chubby!Sanji fanarts- and i'm convincing you.

Yk it doesn't even has to be a fanart, u could write a 500 words fic and imma still read it 😭🙏

Y'all I'm not even lying when I say they posted literally right after I posted this!!! I just finished reading and they didn't say anything in the notes so I hope they're fine 💙

It's so strange and funny how the ao3 curse has affected my thought process. I was sitting here genuinely panicking because an ao3 author I've been reading from stopped posting three days ago and they're a daily poster. So my brain immediately jumped to "Oh gods I hope wherever hit them isn't too terrible! I hope it's just a cold and not a burned down house or dead relative!" Gods only on AO3 would you assume the worst immediately because someone missed their weeklies/dailies.
