I know I said I was gonna join ArtFight this year, but with irl stuff, an upcoming auction, and jury duty at the end of the month, I may not make it out of spectator mode. So smad rn. 🫠

Bisan is calling for another global strike!

I saw some posts just outlining Jan 21st, and wanted to clarify that Bisan has called for a full seven days of action.

What a global strike would look like is:

calling in sick to work

purchasing bare essentials ahead of the week so you can observe the general boycott of goods / buying as little as you genuinely can

putting in a concerted effort to elevate Palestinian voices and make it clear that this strike is in support of a permanent ceasefire!

For those who will have to purchase necessary goods during this time, please observe the brands that the BDS movement is asking us to boycott!

♢♢♢

Right now is also a good time to mention some better uses for your money during this week.

Available e-sims in Gaza are running low!!

Mirna El Helbawi and her team are working round the clock to continue to connect Palestinians as Israel does its best to cut them off from the rest of the world.

You can learn how to purchase and send e-sims here, and below you’ll find a list of what is currently needed (the areas in brackets indicate what region you should select to buy e-sims in).

--

CareforGaza is an organisation that does verifiably good work, distributing supplies directly to Palestinian families.

They have a Gofundme set up at the moment, but because of Gofundme’s poor track record regarding refusing to transfer funds to Palestinians, I’d recommend continuing to donate directly to their PayPal here.

Good luck to all of you. Don't turn away from Palestine!

✧.* resolution *.✧

I decided this year I wouldn't make resolutions in December for the very start of the year. I said I'd let the year settle in first and see what it needed.

In terms of my inner critic, I've already failed. I had to ask for extra time on my thesis due to some pretty bad personal problems. I've gained a bunch of weight over the past year or so. I haven't made any art or done any other college work yet.

I feel pretty defeated. The weight thing especially gets me down, surprise surprise, afab body and all. I'm pretty short so it shows up quickly on me.

Here's the thing. Weight gain is fine and natural. It's just that, personally speaking, the last time I was this weight was the worst decade of my life. I was depressed, anxious, and my world was falling apart. I still have hormonal and mental health issues from it. So whether because of that or not, I don't like how this weight feels on my body. Whatever about the look, the feeling is bad. I feel physically weak and easily tired.

However, I'm also conscious that the aforementioned anxiety and hormone problems have kept me indoors a lot. I was resorting to emotional eating very often. That, combined with an overall pretty sedentary lifestyle, is why I'm here. Not a moral failing. It's just how it works.

So my resolution isn't to go and lose a bunch of weight and get a """""beach body""""". My resolution is to participate in the world more, and participate in my emotions too. That does include horrific, all-encompassing, oh-god-I'm-going-to-pass-out-in-Tesco fear.

But hey. In a deeply practical but not at all dismissive way, if there's something up with me that I would pass out in a Tesco, I probably need to know that. Sitting in my room festering and watching the world go by won't solve anything. I might lose weight, I might not. I might go on progesterone and see if that helps. Ultimately, I just want to be in the world again. Biking and running and strolling and staying out for hours and hours. Feeling strong and healthy and safe in a real way, not through little artifical controls. Then whatever is just a protective layer can fall away, and whatever is left, I can work on accepting.

Guess what! I have party number three in three days tomorrow and then I get home around 10 pm for party number FOUR.

Why do I keep saying yes to things?!

“Woah. You look like shit."

Granted, that’s probably not the first thing Danny should be saying to the guy that just bit the curb, but in his defense; he’s not running on 100% right now either.

The man -- tall, towering, and broader than Danny is tall -- whips around on his heel, black frayed cape flaring out impressively. Danny would've whistled in appreciation, but he takes the time instead to wipe the back of his hand across his mouth, smearing the blood running from his nose across his cheek.

"Sorry." He blinks widely, not even flinching as the man with the horns zeroes in on him. "That was rude of me. I have a really bad brain-to-mouth filter; Sam says its what always gets me into trouble."

And she's not wrong either, per say. His smart mouth is what landed him in this situation -- with blood blossom extract running through his veins and cannibalizing the ectoplasm in his bloodstream. Thanks Vlad.

The man grunts at him; a short, curt "hm" that shouldn't make Danny smile, but he does because he's somewhat delirious and probably concussed. The man keeps some kind of distance, sinking towards the shadows of Gotham's alleyway like he dares to melt right into it.

If it's supposed to scare Danny, it doesn't work. Danny's never been afraid of the dark; he's always been able to hide himself in it. He blinks slowly at the mass of shadows.

"You look hurt." The shadows says, blurring together around the edges. Danny squints, and licks his lips to get the blood dripping down his chin off. Ugh, he hates the taste of blood.

"I am." He says, "My godfather poisoned me. M'dying." The agony of the blood blossom eating him from the inside out looped back around to numbing a while ago, so all he feels is half-awake and dazed.

"Hey," Danny stumbles forward towards the man, a bloodied hand reaching out to him. "You-- you're a hero, right? You're not attacking me; which is more than I can say for most costumed people I've met." Maybe it's a poor bar to judge someone at, but he's already established that Danny's not in his right mind.

The man makes no change in expression, but Danny realizes blearily that it's hard to tell with the shadows on his face. He stays still long enough for Danny to latch onto the cape -- stretchy, but almost soft under his fingers.

He looks up blearily into the whites of the man's eyes. "Can you help me? I don't-- I don't wanna die." Again. He doesn't wanna die again. He blinks slow and lizard-like. "I mean- I'll probably get to see mom and dad again, but I told them I'd at least try and make it to adulthood."

There's a clatter down the street, and Danny's ghost sense chills up his spine and leaves a bitter, ashy taste in his mouth. He immediately knows who it belongs to even before the deceptively gentle; "Daniel?" echoes down the way.

"Daniel? Quit your games, badger, Gotham is dangerous for children."

Danny's mouth pulls back, and blood spills against his tongue. "Please." He rasps, and grabs onto the shadow's cape with both hands. "Please. He's going to kill me. Please--"

"Daniel? Is that you?"

His lips part, dragging in air to plead with the darkness again. He doesn't need to, the whites of his eyes narrow, and the cape whirls around him before Danny can blink. Soon swaddled in shadows, the Night lifts him up, and steals him away.
