Making this post for the AlBalawi Family @yasminalbalawiigaza @bisanalbalawi18 who I have been dm’ing and emailing for a couple of weeks now!

They have been vetted by 90-ghost here and here.

They have started a NEW GFM with a smaller goal for immediate survival funds, but I have not seen it shared here. They also received the additional displacement orders 💔, which they shared about in their original GFM here.

PLEASE consider the conversion rate/fees! For example: I sent $5/USD, it converted to like, $3/USD. And that’s not even considering any instant transfer fees.

And they are also a part of Gaza Champions on IG. Their new GFM was set up by their Champion pen-pal who is helping them with fund transferring.

I have been working on creating a raffle art-raising on my non-game dev side of things, but I have fallen sick 😖, and can’t move as fast. But I’m still working on it! I’ll share it once it’s done.

@‘ing people for reach!

I rly hate the Satanic Panic & the moral panic surrounding violence in video games in the 90s, coz it's now impossible to talk about the social implications of violent video games in a realistic sense.

No, violence in video games does not create serial killers in the way most people imagine it would.

However, it's very important to notice how after 9/11, a lot of violent video games pivoted their content from silly gratuitous cartoon gore to more realistic military shooters set in the Levant from a US American lens. It's also important to notice the connection of these games & their toxic online multi-player voice chats to Gamer Gate in 2014.

It's obviously not as black & white as it was presented in the 80s & 90s, I dont think everyone who played early Call of Duty games is a white supremacist who wants to join the military to kill people in the middle east, but I think it's dangerous to pretend like video games or any media can't have an impact on the way people think about violence.

I think what makes all the difference here is how that violence is portrayed, what the message behind it is, what the motives are behind the people who crafted that message, who the victims of that violence are, how they are portrayed & the greater cultural context that surrounds it.

it's hard work being ur own ocs #1 fan, but it's honest work. (some kaz fits for fun)

Hey guys, important update from Mona. They have arrived in central Ghazzah and are able to continue their initiatives and activism after setting up camp. Since the last drive, she managed to accumulate enough funds to pack & distribute a whole heap of vegetables to the displaced people in Khan Younis! You guys have helped feed nearly 80 families if not more! Don't forget to donate! Every dollar counts! P*ypal.

G*f*ndme to distribute basic necessities in Ghazzah.

G*f*ndme for Mona & her family to evacuate.

Instagram to keep track of progress.

(If you live in India or Pakistan and want to donate, contact her through the means listed on her account).

Don't forget! None of this is possible without Mona and her family's diligence and work. If you would like to send her a thank you note or well wishes, please include it in the replies to this post, in your tags, or in the comments! She always appreciates them ♡
