Some quick tips to spotting accounts that are pretending to be a Palestinian needing mutual aid. Please keep in mind that not all of them are scam accounts, and that some may legitimate blogs who just aren’t too knowledgeable on how tumblr works. This guide is based around what I go by when checking certain blogs and usually it’s a quick giveaway the blog is a scam.
Please read this post too from my other blog before you tell people don’t donate to gfms:
1. You was sent the ask as someone who regularly shares Palestine related content such as regular news updates of posts by other Palestinians who are regularly giving updates. You may also get these asks from sharing a popular post that is from the Palestine tag. If you post often about Palestine, you will always start getting these asks. These askers don’t care if you state don’t send the asks. They will anyway. Unfortunately minors also get sent asks.
2. The ask has odd formatting such as having odd quotation marks in it or unusual formatting that may indicate it’s been edited and copied from somewhere else. Often the ask is the same thing as the post itself minus a link to a donation site. These asks rarely change so searching it should pull up if it’s been sent to other bloggers and sometimes the asks are edited only to add new phrases to them in time.
3. The account is almost always a few days old or a week old or long depending on how often they have sent asks. Usually some may even be an hour old and reusing a familiar pfp/ask.
4. The blog has a few Palestine related posts or posts from random tags reblogged to pad out length and then no more. They will have no original posts besides the pinned post while occasionally answering asks that they may have received but otherwise nothing else and no further updates given either.
5. They may have a Linktree link that is called “GoFundMe” as if indicating they have a GoFundMe there. However, they don’t. When clicked on, the Linktree actually goes to a PayPal account whose name may not even match the one their supposed name is. They’ll say it’s a friend, but it’s just the same person not someone else. You’ll see this same name across multiple accounts after a while usually giving away it’s not legitimate even under a different theme.
6. The text used by the blogs are often real stories stolen from legitimate fundraisers and searching parts of it in your preferred search engine should pull up the sources. These sources make no mention of a tumblr account either or don’t have the PayPal account associated with them in the info. Scammers often impersonate a real person in need and will ignore you if you show them the source they copied from.
7. Legitimate Palestinians often link to their own GoFundMe posts that their friends have set up or post links to other social platforms they are found on. They will regularly post updates when possible, post sources to support them when necessary, and also generally have some method of verifying their legitimacy. They may often share links to support others as well or give links to charities that have been shown as reliable. They will have more original posts than just a single pinned one and regularly speak to other tumblr accounts beyond just an ask. Please don’t bother them with asks about possible scam accounts. There are many guides out there that can do that for you if you search. You may find verified fundraisers too.
8. Scammers don’t know anything about Palestine and will often have trouble once you ask them anything beyond the mutual aid post. They don’t know the languages decently and you can tell it pretty easily if you’re one who uses it regularly. Whatever the scammers use is often just copied off the site they got the post from. Sometimes the text is just reused from past scams such as asking for insulin that doesn’t last long.
9. These scammers can and will use names stolen off real Palestinians to look more legitimate and trustworthy. They change names constantly once one of their PayPal accounts is shut down.
10. If you do see a GoFundMe link on a blog, don’t immediately assume it’s a scam just because it’s a relatively new account. Check the post notes to see if anyone’s verified the account yet or wait a bit as it takes time. You likely can search around to see if anyone’s posted anything where the blog has been vetted by others. You may also see if the GoFundMe is referred to on other socials or on lists that compile verified and vetted fundraisers.
Please don’t let these scams deter you from sending support where it needs to go. Even if you can’t donate personally, there are other ways to help. If you are sending money, please make sure that it’s going to where it’s needed and the place it’s sent has been verified accordingly. If you find a blog is a scammer, and have been able to prove it, please make sure to alert anyone sharing the post and report the account.

Help a Black trans dyke follow her blue-collar dreams!

(id in alt text)
yo! for those who don't know me, my name is Beryl (she/they/it/xe pronouns), and i am a disabled afrolatine trans woman living in the south with my husband, who is also disabled. we moved down south to escape homelessness and an abuser, and while we are fortunate to be living in much more affordable housing than we were in before, we still have rent and other bills to pay even though my husband is too sick to work and has been crowdfunding online for our survival for years. i have always wanted to become an electrician, and have an opportunity to apply to my local electrician's union as an apprentice, where i will be paid and trained and have a guaranteed job once my training+apprenticeship are complete! the only downside is, the application costs money we dont have right now, and i also have to pay to get copies of documents i need for my application, and to get my license back (i have been without one for nearly 3 years after losing it and being unable to get my license renewed). i am going to need a total of $90 to cover the application fee itself, all the costs associated with getting my driver's license back, and getting the last document i need for my application mailed to me. having this taken care of would be beyond huge for me, as i would be able to apply for and begin earning money for myself instead of having to rely on donations, and it would take a MASSIVE strain off of my husband, who has worked himself sick trying to help us stay afloat, both through crowdfunding online and in the past working at regular jobs even though he was in no state health wise to do so. i have venmo and cashapp, and my husband has paypal if folks prefer that to chip in (if you send thru paypal leave a plug emoji so my husband knows its for me!) thank you so much.
(please do not tag this post unless it is for an accessibility reason!)

Image description start. Two images.
The first is a digital painting of Mickey Mouse as a ghost, with 11 out of 365 listed in the upper corner. This background is green, with a lighter green border. Mickey is drawn as a blue ghost with simple red eyes, wearing darker blue overalls, and white shoes. He has notches in each ear, and a long tail. He sits with one leg folded on the ground and the other bent in front of him, looking over to pet a small formless sheet ghost with a small smile.
The second image is a simple license reading *
"public domain", with a circle with a zero inside.
Image description end.]

Shadows Of Our Past, Present, and (possible) Future — Series
Join the Discord Server! :)
My Hero Academia — Female!OC Fan Fiction on AO3
Part One (Completed — 93k words):
The one where Shota Aizawa stumbles upon a back alley full of stray cats and ends up adopting a child
“Fine, then a cat? We both know how much you love those little furry…things.” At this, Shota paused the game and turned to the pushy blonde next to him. “I actually have considered that.” “And?” “And: also, no. It makes no sense.” Hizashi looked almost scandalized. “Makes no sense?” “I made a pro and contra list.” “Of course you did.”
When underground hero Shota Aizawa, twenty-two years old, is out on patrol one Friday evening, he doesn't expect that a single meow from a cat would lead him to find a homeless girl called Yoru. From then on, Yoru and Shota grow up together, make mistakes together, and try to overcome every obstacle life throws at them.
>> Read on AO3 <<
Part Two (Ongoing, regular updates — growing long fic — 528k words so far — READ PART 1 FIRST, PLEASE AND THANK YOU):
The one where Yoru Aizawa tries to navigate through life at U.A.
Two days after her fifteenth birthday, Yoru decides to drop the bomb on him. “I want to go to U.A.” “You want to go to U.A.” Her Dad puts the book he's been reading down on the glass balcony table. “Yes, I want to go to U.A.” She slumps down on the outdoor couch next to him, grabbing the discarded book. “What are you reading?” ‘A Book of Five Rings by Miyamoto Musashi — The classic guide to strategy ’. She raises an eyebrow. “Reading that for fun, huh?” “Why do you want to go to U.A.? You never cared much about heroes. Besides Edgeshot, that is.” Yoru smirks up at him. “What, jealous?” “As if.” “You know, even if they sold Eraserhead posters, I wouldn’t hang them up. It would be super weird.” “Good to know where your loyalties lie.” He rolls his eyes. “Back to the topic at hand, why do you want to go to U.A.? Because Shinso wants to go?” “No.” Pause. “Okay, that may be part of it. But I’m serious. I’ve been thinking about it for a while now, and I really want to go.” “That might be so, but you still neglected to tell me why you want to attend there.” Yoru plays with her hair, noting how it’s time for another hair cut when she finds some split ends. “I wanna be a hero.” Her Dad blinks. “A hero?” “Yes. Well, I want to help people and do some good with that shitty quirk of mine.”
When Yoru tells her Dad that she wants to attend U.A., she expects it to be a difficult path. She didn't expect all the awkwardness, blossoming friendships, confusing feelings, and near-death experiences, though.
>> Read on AO3 <<
Please heed the warnings/tags (TWs in the author's notes of chapters where they apply to).
Also: because someone asked this before - you can read it as a reader insert if you want. I don't mind at all. Feel free to imagine yourself as part of the story. Just know that Yoru (the OC) will have descriptions of her visual appearance.
This story is a mix of:
Slice of life
Hurt/Comfort
Angst/Fluff
Humor
Dadzawa
SLOW BURN Romance — Enemies to Lovers (Bakugo x Yoru)
SLOW BURN Romance — EraserMic (but it's a subtle slow burn)
Growing up, coming of age (hopefully lol)
Teenage awkwardness
Mixed media (pictures, music, chat screenshots (later on in Part 2), etc. — chat screenshots will always have the written text below, to make it accessible for visually impaired folks or people who use screen readers)
and more...
Author: NoBecksPleaseNo on AO3
Please don't copy or plagiarize the work, the character, the premise, etc. Also, no cross-posting anywhere, please and thank you.
Disclaimer: Yoru's image is AI generated and then edited/adjusted by the author. The other character images in the header are from Pinterest (besides the one of Present Mic/Midnight, that one's from the light novels) — unfortunately without a source. If you're the artist, and you're not okay with me using them, please message me and I will remove them. If you're the artist and are okay with me using them, please tell me, so I can credit you.
Besides the OC characters, I don't own any already existing characters from the My Hero Academia Universe — that honor belongs to Kohei Horikoshi.

You just tagged a post with "#sound off, folks <3" and the comma didn't break the tag! How did you DO that? What are the arcane secrets of your wizardry?
right?? I was here ten years before finally seeing some tip post get passed around, or asking someone else, I really don't remember which.
it's a specific type of comma that doesn't break the tags - you can copy and paste it [ ‚ ] or Alt+0130 on Windows produces it at any time.
it's a little fiddly for regular use but I LIKE talking in tags and I like my arcane commas and I'm very happy now to pass this secret onto you!

[ID, partly from ALT text: A four panel comic showing Mickey Mouse and Winnie-the-Pooh outside Pooh's. Panel 1: Winnie the Pooh is outside his house, trying to hang a banner. Steamboat Willie approaches, asking "Hey there Pooh bear, what are you up to?" Panel 2: Pooh bear is lifted by Willie to help him hang his banner. "My friend Tigger is visiting today, I haven't seen him in ever so long, so I'm having him a party", says Pooh Panel 3: Willie holds Pooh on eye level and says "I wonder when my friends will make it here I hope they hurry". Panel 4: Tigger bounces into frame right though the banner that says "Welcome Home" that Pooh has been hanging. Tigger says happily, "Wow Pooh, a finnish line just for me!" Pooh responds with an "Oh bother". Mickey watches Tigger jump through the banner with an awed expression. End ID.]

Welcome to the Tired Captain Club!

[blog in chronological order]
Hey everybody! This is an ask blog for Captain Anya from the Roleswap AU by @omagpies (not the mod, still my boss)
Sister blog to @ask-nurse-curly
Everything in character is tagged #captainsays Everything by a mod is #modsays
The blog operates on a queue, but sometimes some things will be shuffled.
[roleswap au masterpost with all the art]
{The Cockpit Playlist}
Anya has a lot of responsibilities on this ship, a lot of decisions to be made. But her phone just keeps buzzing and was not immune to the tantalizing call of a text message, even if she didn't recognize the number. She just needs a distraction! Haha! A distraction.
General info and rules under the cut!
(Did I just copy, paste, and edit these rules? Absolutely!)
The setting is pre-crash Tulpar
The crew is as follows: Captain Anya, Co-Pilot Swansea, Mechanic Daisuke, Nurse Curly, Medical Intern Jimmy
You are communicating with Anya via her phone. Which for some reason has reception
Asks = text messages; submissions = airdropping files across the vastness of space
Regular text posts (not responses) are something between Anya's thoughts and phone notes
In ask responses, text put (in brackets like these) = Anya's asides. Sometimes tags will provide helpful context from mod :)
You cannot manifest in the Tulpar/interact with her world or other characters. Literally you all are just guys in her phone :)
You can try impersonating people Anya knows (crew mates, parents, friends etc), but she is liable to realise that you aren’t them :)
At the same time, you are absolutely welcome to bring in OCs; if your OC shares some kind of backstory with Curly, we can either improv it or workshop a little. (I should have dms on for this blog)
You can try telling Anya that she is fictional but she will not believe you. Any media pertaining to canon mouthwashing+roleswap's 'canon' (playthroughs, art from the masterpost etc) will appear as corrupted and illegible
All information Anya reveals is compliant to the Roleswap AU, but the ask blog itself is not
* UPDATE: as of Feb 16th 2024, the plot is diverging from canon roleswap :)
Anya is a Russian woman; mod, however, is a silly little english speaker. If Anya says something weird, assume that Curly's english ways are rubbing off on her. Also her mind has a billion thoughts to sort through.
Bullying/ribbing is fine, sexual jokes are fine (she isn't easily flustered), but mod reserves the right to play it by ear and not respond IC to something they find uncomfortable
Sometimes Anya will signal that you are crossing a boundary. Anya’s boundaries don’t equal mod’s boundaries, so if you want to keep pushing go ahead :)
Have fun and be yourself!!!

Some advice for writers
I would like to offer some advice to my fellow writers. Caution: this post is a bit on the longer side.
If you have any type of series on the internet, please have a master post for that series, or at least some form of organization. No, I am not going to go endlessly scrolling through your blog or website to find the first chapter/page.
Please have links to chapters if you are writing a digital novel/novella. It makes it easier for the reader to get through the story. This is assuming you're not using a website dedicated to literature.
Tag your work with what genre it is. I see a lot of stories and chapters on the internet that don't do that or only tag one genre. I would like to know what genre your story is as I have preferences for what I read.
When writing a synopsis or a pitch, please establish the stakes. Tell me what the conflict is and why I should read. What are the consequences if the protagonist fails? Also don't describe what your story is. I'll find that out as I read.
Plan your story out before you write it. You are not that 1 in a million who's going to be able to write a story as you go along. PLAN OUT YOUR STORY BEFORE YOU START IT. Here's my advice: Establish your plot and ending, write the plot, write your characters, then write an outline for the story. Make sure you're happy with it, iron out any last minute details, then write a rough draft.
Have multiple drafts and don't post the first thing that comes out of your head. Don't worry if you mess up during the rough drafts, you can fix it later. How many drafts you have is up to you, just don't get carried away with them as you'll never finish the story.
The protagonist must succeed. It doesn't matter what they succeed in, they must succeed in something. There's no two ways about it. The protagonist can be anyone, be it a hero or villain. protagonist versus antagonist is not good versus evil, it's a clash of egos and ideals. It doesn't matter who they come from.
Write an evil villain and a strong hero. Let your villain be evil and let your hero be heroic. This is storytelling 101, but so many stories these days try to make everyone morally gray and indistinguishable from each other. You can have sympathetic villains and questionable heroes, just make it clear where the lines between good and evil are drawn.
Stop trying to be relatable and POST SOMETHING. I don't care about how many WIPs you haven't finished or about how your cat keeps interrupting you. Post your story. If you're more concerned about being relatable than actually writing, you're not a writer.
If you're expecting overnight success, you are in for a very rude awakening. No, you will not have overnight success. AND NO, you are not that 1 in a million. It takes time, effort, and dedication for your work to get noticed. I should know: have you heard of ULTRAMagic Alternate? I didn't think so.
If you are writing to make money and become famous, get out. I'm serious, leave. If you just want to make money, go get a regular job. You are legitimately getting in the way of actual writers who actually have a story to tell.
Having beta readers is ideal for improving your story. Find people interested in the genres you're writing and see what they think. You can always go back and fix the story if there is something wrong with it.
This one is for readers: If an author asks you to be a beta reader, they are NOT asking you to edit their story (although you can if you want to). You don't have to be an author, the writer is looking for your perspective as an average Joe off the street. Tell them what you think of the work, even if you have no knowledge of writing.
DO NOT USE AI IMAGES. The instant I see an AI image attached to your post I'm immediately scrolling past it. Either learn how to draw or hire a real artist.
DO NOT USE AI WRITING. I will ignore your entire existence if I catch you copy and pasting stuff from an AI chat bot. I'm okay with asking a chat bot for assistance as long as what is written on the page came from your head and human hands, however. Also newsflash, if AI becomes truly sentient, you are stealing ideas and work from another individual. Let that sink in.

[ID: Three pride flags. The first has seven stripes of: Very dark blue, royal blue, blue-purple, white, pale red, red, and dark red. The second has five stripes as a simplified version of the first: Very dark blue, blue-purple, white, pale red, and dark red. The last has five stripes of: Very dark blue, purple-blue, light purple, pearly off-white, and pale red. End ID.] [Plain text: Inclusive mean lesbian flags". End Plain Text.]
INCLUSIVE MEAN LESBIAN FLAGS
The mean lesbian stereotype has been one that the lesbian community has reclaimed for years now. However, over time, the original mean lesbian flag and stereotype reclamation began to be used by TERFs, biphobes, exclusionists, racists, and other.. not great people.
So as a fuck you to all the queerphobes who want to eradicate all queer people, as a fuck you to the people who paint all lesbians as cruel, irredeemable monsters, and as a fuck you to all of the people who make lesbian spaces unsafe for any lesbians who aren't cis ablebodied white women, here's three variants of an inclusive mean lesbian flag.
The former two are based off of the common seven and five stripe formats for lesbian flags, and the latter one is based off of the format of the aurora lesbian flag made by @/ferretwlw.
I'm reclaiming this stereotype for lesbians who are mean to queerphobes, for lesbians who are mean to those who stand in the way of queer solidarity, for lesbians who are mean to the racist, transphobic, and ableist people that divide the queer community, and for lesbians who are angry and tired of being stereotyped, policed, and ostracized for their sexuality.
Because fuck lesbophobes and political lesbians, fuck transphobes, fuck exclusionists, fuck queerphobes in general, fuck racists, fuck ableists, and fuck bigots in general.
#(I saw your tags so ty for making note you're looking for an ID! Always nice to know the OP will appreciate it)#(my regular copy and pasted tags:#Please copy and paste into the original post for accessability#no credit needed!

𝖇𝖔𝖞𝖓𝖊𝖝𝖙𝖉𝖔𝖔𝖗 𝖉𝖗𝖆𝖇𝖇𝖑𝖊𝖘 - 𝖎.
ʚɞ pairing: han dongmin (taesan) x fem!reader ʚɞ word count: 0.4k ʚɞ genre: fluff ʚɞ tags: nonidol!au ʚɞ synopsis: If Taesan wasn't so terrified, he would realize it's not hard to strike up a conversation with the cute girl in the coffee shop.
How the hell is he supposed to approach you? Riwoo joked that it shouldn’t be this hard to say hello when you run into each other every day at the same cafe. You take residence at the same table and open a new book every time you get comfortable, the routine clockwork that Taesan has kept in his memory since the first time he saw you.
Taesan takes a deep breath, recognizing his hands are shaking and he can’t walk up to you in this condition. He hasn’t even tried coming over to you yet, and he’s already on the verge of a panic attack. Why’s it so hard to relax?
You’ve always smiled at him and opened the door to the coffee shop for him when he’s walked in behind you. Sure, it could be considered common courtesy to any regular person, but Taesan felt his heart flutter all the same at every little moment you shared up to this point.
He just has to take the next step, and another. Then another, until he is standing in front of you with two coffees in his hands and a huge amount of false confidence. You look up from your book and smile, teeth exposed and cheeks a light shade of pink. “Hi. Dongmin, right?”
His nerves light up. Anxiety and happiness mix underneath the surface of his returned smile. She remembers your name. Don’t freak out right now.
“Yeah.” He says your name back, the letters a perfect symphony on his tongue. “I didn’t know what coffee you preferred, but I thought you can’t go wrong with a chai latte, right?”
You smirk and take the hot cup from his hands. “My favorite.”
His heart skips a beat at your response, happy his best guess turned out to be a success. He sits in the free chair at your table and tries to get comfortable, still trying to shake off the excess nerves.
You dog-ear the page of your book and focus your attention on him, eyes alight with curiosity.
Taesan looks over the cover. Your copy of Eliza Clark’s Boy Parts is clearly loved, past pages flagged with sticky tabs. “Good read so far?”
You grin. “You could say that.”
“If I said it’s on my TBR list would you think that I’m trying too hard to impress you?”
You giggle and take a sip of your latte. “I’d say you’re cuter than I thought.” Taesan chuckles at your response.
After another ten minutes of small talk and light flirting, the remainder of Taesan’s fears and worries dissipate. If he had known how easy it was to approach you before, he would have done it weeks ago. And all he regrets now is not doing it sooner.

hey! stupid question (asking anonymously out of shame really), what does the PT thing mean? i know its for screen readers but im having trouble parsing the meaning of the tag- post title? just curious
No such thing as a stupid question, anon. In fact, that's a very good question, and I'm glad you asked. PT means Plain Text! In short, it's for any text that's been rewritten (or copy + pasted) into regular text, because the original text was large, small, bolded, colored, italicized, or otherwise had something to it that might make it hard to read (especially for screen readers). Plain Text can help with both screen readers and other visual tools/needs/difficulties (for example, I sometimes have trouble reading colored text, and small text tends to strain my eyes, so I appreciate Plain Text in those instances). Thank you for asking!

[Image description start. A version of the yes/no meme format, with a cartoon character first lifting a hand in disgust, then pointing happily.
The no section reads, the system is broken and must be fixed.
The yes section reads the system is working exactly as intended and must be destroyed.
Image description end.]

#I'm on my phone so I can't copy and paste my regular tags#But please copy and paste this image description into the original post#In plain text like it is here and not in bold or italics or color#Image descriptions are for blind and visually impaired people the way subtitles are for#People who are deaf or hard of hearing#Having it in the body of the Post itself rather than just all text is much more accessible than only being alt-text#Because Tumblr is extremely glitchy and changes things all the time and not everybody who needs an image description can use alt text#Thank you no credit is needed for the image description if you add it to the original post#I will then reblog the original post as well

I am dealing with multiple family emergencies today and my health is very poor. I am really at the end of my rope and cannot do much to support any campaigns today. I will get back to regular posting as soon as I can, but I am on the brink of a breakdown and I just cannot do more right now.
If you are a tumblr user outside Gaza, please reblog all of the posts we have shared in the last 24 hours, they are all emergencies that need attention. Please donate and, if you are able, make your own posts for them. You can copy and paste the text and the links we have used, and use tags like ours. What matters is getting these campaigns circulation ASAP so they can get more support.
If you make a post for one of these campaigns, please tag it as #northgazaupdates and I will reblog it as soon as possible
Thank you

𝙇𝙖𝙨𝙩 𝘽𝙧𝙚𝙖𝙩𝙝 𝙤𝙛 𝘽𝙧𝙖𝙫𝙚𝙧𝙮 — 𝙎𝙚𝙧𝙥𝙚𝙣𝙩𝙞𝙣𝙚 𝘿𝙚𝙨𝙞𝙜𝙣 (🌶️ 𝒱𝑒𝓇𝓈𝒾♡𝓃 𝒜𝓋𝒶𝒾𝓁𝒶𝒷𝓁𝑒)
You heard of Mermaid AU's, now we have snake daddeh (or crusty uncle for my regulars). I have a thing for the snake men in my life, and what a year of the snake it is! I have a personal AU where Gyutaro is just a snake man, and he's so much meaner in it. Dude is stronger too (but slower now). If you want it, there's not much difference in the actual story, but I will definitely make content (Snake Gyutaro is more Dead Dovish since he is low-key a horrible man)
MDNI Spice Content MDNI
(Lore Drops for the AU)
This Rasshu X Gyutaro ship is more toxic than the normal variant (Spurred on by blackmail and captive situations, hence 💀🕊️ )
Gyutaro doesn't eat much because of his snake habits, but when he does eat, it's a macabre chore for Rasshu
