positing hamas as some kind of evil boogeyman when hundreds (at least 300) of dead civilians are found in a mass grave around nasser hospital after the idf ran through khan younis……………🥴🥴🥴🥴
People liking your personal OCs is still such a crazy feeling, I've been doing this for years and ppl asking about them still fills my entire heart with warmth and idk how to handle it
You enjoy this fictional guy I made up for fun?? Whose only content is random artwork or writing made by me and a handful of other artists at most? They have no show/book/game with a large fandom, it's just one person with an art blog?? I love u
no matter how terrible my day is. i can always end my day in bed imagining fictional characters making out sloppy style and fucking raw. and that's beautiful. there's some good in this world mister frodo and it's worth fighting for
The student protests for Palestine have been an amazing show of solidarity and support and seeing thr way that so many young people are willing to stand up for their values is admirable when so many others stay silent. But this is all to say that we are entering a pattern of glorifying these white “martyrs” from the global west to put all of this effort and resources and media coverage into instead of the actual cause they are fighting for.
I saw the same thing happen with Aaron Bushnell, when his self immolation was being talked about more than the actual genocide in Gaza (which went against everything he said he was self immolating for in the first place).
And again this happened with the prisoner from the US who worked 136 hours just to be able to donate his $17 check to Palestine aid efforts. In response to this, people wanted to help him and ended up raising over $100,000 in a gofundme for him. This feels almost satirical, as every gofundme to help Gazans evacuate Palestine and get to safety has a goal of less than $100,000 and most of them are not even close to reaching it.
And now, there are more and more posts on how to get aid to the college student encampments, and the “urgency” of getting enough bail funds for the students who have been arrested during them. Talking about Palestine itself and getting resources to Palestine has almost been put on the back burner in favour of making all Palestine related news about college students in the United States.
It think it is valuable to recognise the selflessness and importance of these protests, and getting these students resources but what is MORE important, and what these people are truly fighting for, and protesting, and make a statement about is PALESTINE. We have unsurprisingly reached the point where there are people who care much more about the white people fighting for the cause from the comfort of living in the global west than they care about the Palestinians undergoing a genocide in Gaza. It’s become almost blatant racism, the way people begin to drop everything the second a white/usamerican person does something in regards to helping Palestine, but will not put the same effort into a Palestinian IN Gaza who is telling their story or asking for help. I respect anyone who has done absolutely anything to help Palestine, but I hope people are starting to see the pattern of how the media gravitates towards the “white saviour/perfect martyr” instead of the first hand accounts coming from those in Gaza.
Anyway FIND A GOFUNDME AND DONATE TO HELP FAMILIES IN GAZA ESCAPE GENOCIDE
Karlach expected to feel his lips on her cheeks again, but he went for her arm instead, kissing up the spiderwebs of her burn scars to the vents in her shoulders. He mouthed the rubber and suckled the steam as if they were ambrosia, and Karlach watched her flames burst blue beneath his lips. The last place she ever thought anyone would want to touch her was there, her skin stuccoed with Zariel’s engineering, but Cyrus lavished her.
All of her— moving up to her collarbone to kiss across her chest, pausing at the hollow of her throat before veering downward. The azure glow of the engine working overtime beneath Karlach’s sternum cast the grey of his eyes like sapphires as he kissed the edges of her halter. He followed it along the swell of her breast—Karlach breathing in sharp—to the strap, but instead of moving up to her shoulder again, he brought his face to her underarm. Mouth sucking at the hollow of her armpit, nose buried deep in the hair, Cyrus’ eyes slid closed.
Touching their tadpoles together, Karlach felt herself on Cyrus’ tongue, sweat and musk swimming with the bliss in his head, not a single other thought floating there.
“So this is devotion,” Karlach murmured, as off-hand as she could manage, but then Cyrus made a pleased purring sound that rumbled against her skin, and she had to pant a couple of times to get her engine to cool down. “A woman could get used to this…”
actually your characters should be pure wish fulfillment and your writing should be entirely self indulgent and it should all be very, incredibly, undeniably horny.
No one is discrediting the student protests. I myself am a student who is partaking in largely student-coordinated protests, drives, campaigns… but I also understand that we are largely missing the point if coverage of these protests overshadows what they are actually protesting for—the atrocities committed on Palestinians every single day. As the western buzz around this genocide gets more and more coverage, the coverage of the genocide itself sharply declines. It’s true and I see it every single day. Things are not being reported with the precision and diligence with which they should be.
