If you’re a Leftist, if you support Palestine, it’s absolutely fundemental that you read this. I actually encourage that everyone should read this:
“The Palestinian People have consistently made it crystal clear that our enemy is the colonialist and racist ideology of Zionism, not Jews.”
“I have zero interest in memorising or apologising for centuries old tropes created by Europeans, or giving semantics more heft than they warrant, chiefly when millions of us confront real, tangible oppression[…]”
Words by Mohammed El-Kurd.

I made the game ‘Watermelon Match’ within 48 hours after hearing about the Global Strike for Ceasefire for Palestine on December 11th, 2023. My pixel art and game design may be lacking, but I hope that this is a small reminder to keep going for the people in Palestine and Gaza. 🍉

finishing touches 🧶
Abdalhadi Alijla - "What can I tell my 76-year-old mother and my 10-year-old niece? "The ICJ does not see ordering a ceasefire as necessary for your survival." Gazans' eyes and ears were eagerly awaiting the word "stop" or "ceasefire”."
Abla Abdelhadi: "Please keep in mind our Palestinian people in Gaza don't feel like celebrating incremental legal "wins". They're allowed to express outrage, disappointment & whatever they want. They're still under Israel's bombs, nothing for them to celebrate!"
Remi Kanazi: "The ICJ isn't the authority here. Palestinians are. It is they who have experienced the genocide. It is they who have faced the gruesome crimes detailed in those halls. It is they who continue to bury the dead, search for food & hope to dodge the next bomb dropped. Ceasefire now."
honestly i just think we all need to slow down
Hello world, we're here begging for your help as LGBT refugees in kakuma refugee camp located in the turkana west of kenya, we have been in Kenya for four years of suffering up to now, all bad things happened to us and others lost lives. It's so unfortunate that right now Kenya doesn't want us anymore 💔, recently we had a dialogue with officials and they openly informed us that we're no longer accepted in Kenya and as am talking we're remaining 7 LGBT refugees in kakuma camp, unfortunately we haven't gotten any means of resources to help us relocate 💔 and any time soon they promised to check door to door, so we're all in fear of what may happen next! We need to raise 175,000ksh equivalent to 1,150USD.
For any kind of help here is our donation link, https://www.gofundme.com/f/lgbt-refugees-in-kakuma?utm_campaign=p_cp+share-sheet&utm_medium=copy_link_all&utm_source=customer
I got a lot of new followers today, hi! A lot of you probably just found me from Tumblr staff featuring me on the @artistalley blog.
I've seen a few people comment that they dislike these featured posts because they're "ads" so I just want to address that for a second
Tumblr does not get any kind of revenue from me through featuring me. I didn't pay them for that. I know a lot of people are disgruntled with Tumblr staff for various reasons but I think the artist alley blog is a great way to spotlight merch artists. It's helping me right now
I am a queer indie fashion designer whose clothing store is my entire livelihood. Sharing and purchasing my work directly supports a QPOC (me). You can dislike "advertising" as much as you want but I hope you know that a lot of individual small businesses are run by people like me and are very small-scale operations (I run my store solo) that rely on self-promotion and features to earn a living. It's incredibly different from big corporate advertising.
