Here's my guide to how I draw fat masc bodies! (please keep in mind that this is not an in depth tutorial. I only put the information that explains how my brain interprets it)

It has been 11 months of genocide. 334 days of airstrikes and ground invasions. 481,801 minutes of innocent lives martyred one after another.

I don’t know how the world can still keep spinning as this happens right in front of our faces, or why we are letting this go on for so long, but with every passing day, it seems people become used to it, even when the victims come to us themselves asking for help.

Many of us don’t know how to handle such a huge responsibility. We may feel we are not equipped to do so. That is why you get overwhelmed when you are confronted with the victims and our complicity in it and make a decision to ignore. You become defeatist.

But you can’t do that. You have to resist because this is exactly what the settler colony wants you to feel. They do want to look away. They want you to carry on with your life (your normal) while they commit the most atrocities on the most vulnerable.

Deutschland (Germany) is a country that shows no shame in their support of the settler colony. It is up to the point where they would discriminate against the Palestinians. Even to those who stand up for them. Ava Moayeri, a German-Iranian activist, has been sent to court for chanting “From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free” last month!

If she goes through this, imagine the Palestinians who want nothing more but to build a better future for themselves. My friend, Bilal Salah (@bilal-salah0), is no exception. He is 22 years old and lives in Deutschland for work, but he has faced so many difficulties. He has been on the verge of deportation, making him lose access to his job and housing. His former employer has extorted €4,800 and he is still unemployed, so he can not financially support his family back in Ghazzah. This fundraiser is all he has.

So please help him achieve €110,000 by September 20th! We are supposed to raise it today (Sept 15th), but we have failed to do so. Let's make sure this doesn't happen again! We can't let him down!

As of writing this, €105,980 has been raised! There is only €4,020 left to go! If we do the math, we need at least 804 people to contribute a minimum of €5 to succeed!

Please donate and share. Bilal’s family has narrowly survived the airstrike at the al-Masawi Camp. This fundraiser will help them purchase basic necessities until Rafah Crossing reopens and they can evacuate!

Verification: #132 in the Spreadsheet.

What is Ghazal’s fault for not living

her childhood safely? How long will our children suffer???? ❤️‍🩹💔😭Ghazal was one year and four months old before the war, and now she is two years and three months old. Ghazal did not live through any stage of her childhood. She did not hear the bombing, the sounds of missiles, and saw the destruction and blood. How long, O world??? 💔❤️‍🩹💔 Ghazal now suffers from speech impairment because of the fear she experienced that affected her speech. She needs intensive treatment in order for her to speak.

Ghazal now lives in a torn tent, burning from extreme heat and cold at night, and I fear that winter will come upon us while we are in this torn tent. There is nothing. We have clothes for the winter because we left our house and did not take anything.

Everything in the house was destroyed.

I wish to return to Gaza to smell the dirt and dust of Gaza 😭😭🇵🇸 I do not know the meaning of sleep.

I am afraid that a snake or rodents will come upon them and they will get hurt.

I cry all night 😭💔 over what happened to us all. This torment, and no one moves or stays still.

Rather, the world is silent over all these massacres, destruction, and humiliation that we live through for food, water, shelter, and clean clothes. I hope every day that this dark nightmare to which we are exposed will end❤️‍🩹💔🇵🇸

. I hope and please 🙏🙏 to help me and my children to get out of this nightmare that has been going on for a long time and we are tormented and hurt by it. Share and donate, even if it is a little, to give us a glimmer of hope that we will emerge to safety. ❤🙏🙏

Elements of real science I'd love to see in more fictional magic systems

Categories are defined by people, not by nature, and way looser around the edges than everyone thinks. "We like to divide spell-casting into rituals, runic magic, instantaneous spells, and curses or blessings, but the 'curse or blessing' category has more to do with how long a spell LASTS than how it's SET, and the line between ritual and inscribed runes gets really blurry in places..."

Models of 'how this works' that get taught to little kids which are fully debunked later as 'over-simplified and actually totally inaccurate, but a good way to learn, this is better', only to be replaced two years of study after that because, 'actually that was also a lie for the sake of learning, learn this one instead'. "Yes, we teach kids that planes stack in layers and sometimes holes form between them, and I know last year we covered the Humperdink Theory Of Planar Interweaving where those so-called holes are areas of enmeshment with the fibers of multiple planes at once, but today we're finally going to talk about the Planar Mosaic Model."

Frenzies of curiosity each time something unexpected happens, as wizards try to figure out, if this is a divergence from the pattern they THOUGHT they knew, then what is the bigger pattern? IE, "We've seen the Power of Friendship be insufficient to slaying this balrog for years! Why were these particular adventurers finally able to do it now?"

Basically, magic not as an objective force of the universe, but a hodgepodge thing humans made up to try and talk about and interface with the truth of the actual universe.

"Yes, we've been studying the lore and secrets of the universe for a thousand years. Things still just happen sometimes! That's why it's magic!"

yeah im “transitioning” *dissolves into tiny pieces as i click to the next slide*

Overcorrecting

Actual canon:

Furthermore:

I get wanting to distance yourself from old inaccurate fanon but recently it feels like the fandom is just being contrarian and overcorrecting so much they create a new fanon, just in the opposite direction

It's with a heavy but hopeful heart that I watch Palestinian families fundraiser on here, slowly accumulating the precious little money to go around that they need to survive. However, not everyone is so lucky. A lot of Palestinians that have not had that kind of luck, that did not get early verification, that did not get massive platforms behind them from large bloggers, have approached me in my inbox, asking me kindly to do what I can for them. It kills me that I have so little to give myself, but I've seen this platform collectively raise enough to change someone's life. I've made a list of Palestinian fundraisers that are extremely low on funds, in the hope that drawing attention to people who have not been lucky at all can help turn that luck around. I know most of us can't possibly give enough to get all of these families safe in one go. But please, reblog this list. Pick one or two fundraisers, give what you can, and then keep track of it. Slowly, collectively, we can make a difference in these people's lives. Share and donate as much as you can. https://docs.google.com/document/d/178EGDFKkHlh3y4TMVX82kqgITHsqtoMdNccI2f_94Os/edit?usp=sharing

when artist consistently draws the same pattern of things for a long time like... Puppies or something.. and then gets interested in skeletons and starts consistently drawing skeletons....

Thats when a lot of people start to really be mean or show entitlement it's clear they view artists as "art dispenser" and not and actual person with a consciousness that flows like a river. It's like they think the art machine is broken and it used to give me puppy art but it's broken now and I get skeleton art so someone should fix it ?

People go through phases of things they like sometimes people really are into something for years and then they're into something else for years and then they go back to the old thing for a week and then they do something else again

Artists aren't brands they aren't corporations you aren't consuming them ... They're human people and they're trying to connect or get thoughts out or any number of reasons to create and share things and a lot of artists aren't even interested in making money off it..

btw… important PSA: cutting off the mold on the surface of food does nothing. you can only see the spores on the surface, but mold itself has spread and grown roots into the food. by the time you can actually *see* the spores, that piece of food is completely full of it. youre still eating mold. 

many of which are poisonous and have been shown to cause cancer. youre not even supposed to sniff it, because that can get spores into your lungs. like if you look up the health and safety guidelines for mold they barely stop short of telling you to put on a hazmat suit. 

like produce is okay as long as you cut around it at least an inch, but cooked foods? you gonna die. stop eating mold people
