[ID: a sketch of two children, Murphy and Simon, at an old mac computer. Murphy has short hair and round sunglasses and is labeled as being 12 years old. Simon has shorter hair and square glasses and is labeled as 8 years old. Murphy says, "Delete the pool ladder." End ID.] The best part about Evidence of the Unknown being released is now I can share all the silly doodles about these characters. Anyway. Fun fact, Murphy is the cousin of my other OC Simon. Here they are playing the Sims in a normal way.

Hello sorry for tagging. I am very sick, my asthma is at its maximum level, my nose freezes, I have no medicine or food. I am in bad shape financially, I am a black disabled, who uses multiple medications, I pay for my food and lodging

Unfortunately I do not have all the resources to keep me safe, that is why I need your help, whatever you can contribute to me will be of great help.

Okay kids, are you ready for a lesson in SPOTTING ONLINE SCAMS????

*please don't message this person or harass them-- i do recommend that you report and block them, however.

right now it's incredibly important to give time, attention, and money to online fundraisers. but it's also incredibly important not to let scammers take advantage of that and steal money that could actually save lives right now.

firstly-- if we go to this person's blog, and navigate to "archive--"

this person's blog has only existed for a few days, only has a handful of generic posts (many reblogged multiple times,) and made their first reblog the same day that they posted their "fundraiser" post. this is a MASSIVE red flag.

please also note that neither their ask nor post actually mention palestine or gaza at all, but it's still tagged with "free palestine" and "gaza."

though this one should obviously be taken with a grain of salt, it is also worth noting the poor grammar here, because this can be (but isn't always!!!) another red flag. Note also that all the details are really vague and don't quite make sense... user describes "enduring cold" and their "nose freezing" though it's the middle of the summer. This user says that they're "sick," but doesn't really offer any further details about this. This user says that they need money for "resources," but don't elaborate on what exactly they need. They vaguely elude to a need for lodging, caretakers, and medicine, but don't actually give us any details-- despite this they have a "$1200" goal. What is this specific goal of $1200 for? Is that the cost of their medication? Overdue medical bills? Cost for rent this month?... They also apologize in their ask for "tagging" me... but they didn't tag me. They sent me an ask.

Another red flag is that their link labeled "Fundraiser link" leads directly to a Paypal donation page rather than a gofundme or anything else. If someone chooses to collect aid through paypal, venmo, etc. instead of through a gofundme, that's not a huge issue in and of itself... but it is fishy that it's mislabeled like this.

And if we GOOGLE this user's tumblr name or paypal name, we can find results like this:

This also led me to find them on @/kyra45's blog on their list of current scam accounts.

Despite all this, they have close to 100 reblogs from well-meaning people trying to signal boost and ask for donations on their behalf.

With the current situation in Palestine and the amount of actual, legitimate fundraisers and donations being circulated right now, for Palestine, Sudan, the Congo, or otherwise, it is more important than ever to be aware of people who are trying to take advantage of the situation for their own personal gain. Whenever possible, please take the time to do some due diligence when you receive messages like this and check to see if a fundraiser is legitimate! It always sucks for someone to be the victim of a scam and lose money to someone playing pretend on the internet... but it sucks even more when that money could have gone to people in actual, acute, dire need.

Here's some more information about spotting scams on tumblr! Shoutout to tumblr user kyra45 for compiling this, and for all the other hard work they do-- thanks.

Here's an actual, vetted, and legitimate campaign that could use your support. After receiving this ask, I went and donated. If you have the means to do so, it would be amazing if you did so, too.

DAY 71: shy

[beegswaz]

was complaining to my friends abt how little we actually know about vine so i started blasting my own headcanons at her

which ill talk about under the text for those who just wanna look at my vine design

i like to think vine has a workout routine, and she spars with katana sometimes (he was originally against this, but vine was VERY insistent she wouldnt get injured. and she was right!!!)

shuri and sling will watch them spar if its early enough in the day (vine and katana both have their own issues that leads them to spar at night, usually sling will watch if he cant get to sleep that night)

sorry its formatted poorly this was a quick comic

rounding back to vine and katana having issues and using sparring as a sorta coping mechanism, i like to think katana has paranoia (he denies it, its not paranoia if they (the cult) are really after him!) so he finds it particularly hard to sleep some nights, whereas if vine feels too many emotions or too strong of an emotion, her arm starts rapidly sprouting flowers and branches (which hurts like hell to remove, by the way), so before she gets to that point she goes and fights with katana to release any extra energy she has

theyre both tired by the end and sleep decently well, so they havent ever stopped sparring

anyways vine could probably hold her own in a physical fight with scythe or banhammer if she had to

seal the deal by dragging em down with ya

man

[raptorwithamarker]

sigh. the demons got me. luckily i dont have enough time to draw so heres this.

bdubs is a rainwing i know so original. his tragic backstory is hes cool and chillin in the jungle. I'm sure he sells terrariums or grows fruit or makes paintings. Despite the lack of color I can assure you he flashes red a lot, and any other colors layer like dappled light. I made the wings similar to a bats, and similar to nightwings in that aspect. The coloring is really nebulous of course, but I want to emphasize the dappling and darker sections next time. Time constraints and all that.

quick af btw >> you can hate dutch van der linde without calling him an evil snake who eats people..,,,, genuine serious if you think hes a cannibal GET OUT OF HERE

[volfoss]

actually yeah im making a quick poll on this. for anyone who has been around long enough to remember when i made my massive clamp readathon situation (in which i read every single one of the works they put out) be everyones problem. hi. im doing it again but much worse now. reading about 400 volumes (and more if i can find more) of tezuka osamu's work. i am just curious on the general consensus of if i should upload thoughts as i read each one (ie: one post being like i finished kimba/jungle kingdom, heres my thoughts) or just have a MASSIVE post of hey. read them all heres my thoughts (as i did with clamp. which is when i found out tumblr had a max text limit)

[scalproie]

and the worst thing is that vergil DOES sucks. genuinely

[dhmis-autism]

i hope that.... all my fav fellow dhmis posters KNOW theyre my faves... u know.....

[vagueiish]
