suggestions for new artists

- have two blogs, one where you only post your art and another fandom blog where you reblog not only your art to but also reblog and interact with others

- tags only matter for SEO and fandom, so there is no reason to tag #art and #pixel art for example

- tag posts to be searchable for your own blog, keep the same tagging system too so people can easily sort your posts

- use the queue feature to post things at optimal times

- reblog yourself (and tag #srb or #self-bost accordingly for people who block it)

- one to two pieces of art per post

- Tumblr loves sketches and throw away art, just post it on its own instead of doing a sketch dump

- have a pinned post telling people what tags can be searched in your blog to find your art, your fandoms, your OCS, and anything else that might be relevant

This is Iman and Toulin, Muhammad and Mona’s two daughters. This family is trapped in Gaza and their campaign is incredibly low on funds. They only have €600 out of their €30,000 goal.

Their campaign is number #111 on this list of verified fundraisers. Please donate if you can, their campaign has been moving incredibly slowly and these people urgently need our help. I encourage you to share this post as much as possible to help Mona and her children find safety. Thank you 🩷

Happpy Disability Pride month!! Help your (not so local) nonbinary enigma survive!

I need help! Desperately! In a myriad of ways!!

One way to help me right now would be to help with groceries. I have mobily issues, and the rollator pictured above broke! The wheel came clean off 🙃

I don't actually know when I'll finally be called in for an assessment at wheelchair services, and I cannot afford to buy one on my own (can't work, can't have a bank account, can't open a credit card, etc)

Here's how you can help for now

Send me grocery money please 🥺🥺

Would you let a face like this survive on bread and water alone 🥺😔😔

Asking for 100£ (about 130 usd) to aid in my next grocery trip (although I have many household items I need as well)

Donate today to save a refugee 🤧

Hey, so I’d like to say thank you to all who are accepting us Reddit refugees. As someone who’s always wanted to get into Tumblr, I guess I never officially did, until the Reddit blackout. I mean I created an account a while back to lurk at awesome and lovely fanart but this recent controversy made me flee here.

Been kinda sad, disappointed, but not surprised that Reddit is heading towards the direction thanks to spez.

So, I’d like to say thank you once more for accepting us :)

Oh and I absolutely love how you’re all just unapologetically outspoken on your burning and fierce hatred of capitalism lol please never stop the momentum

Vault of Knowledge got me really sad while seeing spirit’s memories but these two in particular just made me so so sad.

And others in that place, I really loved their backstories and how they all became friends even after losing important people.

They found light within each other and I think it’s so beautiful.

Found family trope never disappoints

Twitter/X is down in Brazil for who knows how long, due to Elon’s shenanigans. So please support us Brazilian refugee artists here by giving them visibility.

Reblogs are appreciated, especially if includes some of your favorite Brazilian artists, or your own profile ✨

Fundraiser for VETTED CHARITY - #13 on Operation Olive Branch Mutual Aid

100% of sales on my beadwork go towards Al Nasser Charitable, a Palestinian-run charity on the ground in South Gaza. Vegetable prices are very high there, so they’ve started a campaign to help people in displacement camps!

EDIT: “Donate” QR code doesn’t work RN:

I swear this QR code led to a link Ibrahim, the charity’s president, sent me directly. But it seems that PayPal has deemed a charity operating under a genocide "ineligible" for donations.

I don’t know how or when this happened, or if there's any way to appeal it, but this is vile on PayPal's part. If you still want to donate directly, Ibrahim has a PayPal you can give directly to:

A JOURNEY OF SURVIVAL: MY LIFE AS LGBTIQ REFUGEE IN EAST AFRICA🌈

Hello, my name is AshleymilesPhil, 21years old and I’m a queer refugee originally from Uganda. This is my story, but it’s also the story of hundreds of LGBTIQ refugees who have been persecuted, abandoned, and left fighting for their lives simply because of who we are.

Growing up in Uganda, being queer was not just dangerous—it was life-threatening. Uganda’s laws and society are brutally unforgiving to anyone who dares to live openly as LGBTIQ. In constant fear of violence, I had to flee, leaving behind my home, my life, and everything I knew.

My journey first took me to Kakuma refugee camp in Kenya, a place I hoped would offer refuge. But the reality in Kakuma was anything but safe. LGBTIQ refugees there are regularly targeted for physical violence, harassment, and discrimination. We were left vulnerable, isolated, and without support. The camp, rather than being a sanctuary, became a place of daily survival.

Eventually, I found myself in Gorom camp in South Sudan, hoping for something better, but the challenges only deepened. South Sudan’s laws are even more hostile toward the LGBTIQ community. Starvation, lack of medical care, and persecution are daily realities here. Many of us in the camp are living with HIV/AIDS and can’t access proper medication. The physical and emotional toll is overwhelming, but we continue to fight for our right to live, love, and simply exist.

Our lives in these camps are on the line every single day. We are not just struggling with a lack of food, water, and healthcare; we are fighting for our very existence against systems that dehumanize us.

We need help and support .The world needs to know what we are going through. My fellow LGBTIQ refugees and I are in desperate need of support to survive these unimaginable conditions. We are asking for your kindness, your solidarity, and if possible, your support. Even a small contribution can make a difference in our fight for survival.

Consider donating to our Gofundme fundraiser

Thank you for reading, sharing, and supporting us in our time of need. Your compassion can bring hope where it’s needed most.

Your support can save lives, provide food for the starving, and offer crucial medical care for those living with HIV/AIDS. We need the world to stand with us against the persecution and injustice we face every day.
