March of "The Faithful"

Hello artists. Writers, illustrators, singers, anyone who creates anything. Your job is really, really important right now and will continue to be instrumental.

I beg you, create. Write about what you're seeing, hearing, and feeling. Paint about your life story and your dreams. Dare to imagine a good world and bring it to life any way you can. Create art that is joyful, that celebrates your unique place in this world and the people you value.

Fascism relies on a killing of joy and hope. We must combat this in any and every way possible. Go draw that funny little stick figure and show it to a friend, give them a giggle to keep going. Do not ever underestimate the power of creation.

Tonight’s livestream was about being together and having support, and it was comforting to be there with a friend drawing and chatting.

I saw someone say art won’t fix things or save us, but I disagree. I think art is everything. And it will always be my way through tough feelings and tougher times.

Colorful Revolution

Howzit y’all? Over the Memorial Day weekend and with world events being what they are I’ve had another poem kind of just bubbling beneath the surface inside my mind mansion. With all the social media I’ve been consuming and resources I’ve been picking up, I felt inspired by the sight of the Palestinian flag being flown at protests and rallies worldwide. As anyone that’s a writer will know, once…

As discussions of a potential ceasefire in Gaza gain momentum, our fears of the Israeli occupation's escalating aggression grow stronger. They continue to target innocent civilians mercilessly, seeking to claim as many lives as possible. Since this morning alone, airstrikes have taken the lives of hundreds, leaving behind countless casualties and grief.

Reports suggest that the border crossing might open soon, and this could be our only chance to escape the daily hell we endure. We urgently need your support now more than ever.

We appeal to you to stand by us and donate to save our lives, the lives of our children, and our loved ones. Every contribution, no matter how small, can make a significant difference.

Please help us by sharing this message and supporting us during these critical moments. Thank you for always standing with us.
