Angel opened a gofundme about a month ago, so if possible please consider donating to help fund her future projects :)

[image description: a comic starring a dragon furry who has somewhat transparent skin and a large eye.

dragon, talking to someone offscreen: How long have I lived here? For forever, I was born here. Well, I say "born," but I was more, like... duplicated? cloned?

dragon: You know how some lizards can shed their tails? In some cases the tail goes and grows a body.

An example of this is shown, with the formed body having transparent skin, showing veins or nerves that stem from the shed tail.

A months-long Al Jazeera investigation has found that military-related goods originating from at least 51 countries and self-governing territories continued entering Israel after the ICJ’s warning of a plausible risk of genocide in Gaza. Based primarily on an analysis of Israeli Tax Authority (ITA) import data between 2022 and 2025, and supported by customs records and freedom of information requests, the investigation traced military supply chains linked to countries across Europe, Asia, North America and South America. All named countries are signatories to the Genocide Convention. In some cases, the military-related goods originated from countries that had formally imposed arms embargoes on Israel or had partially suspended arms supplies to the country. In fact, according to the ITA data, arms imports increased after the ICJ ruling, with the largest share falling under the category of munitions. The five largest countries of origin for military-related goods entering Israel - the United States, India, Romania, Taiwan and the Czech Republic - all recorded increased shipments during the war.

Patrick Wilken, a researcher at Amnesty International, said the scale of Israel’s military campaign made such international support indispensable. “There is no way that Israel alone could have sustained the intensity of its massive bombardment across the Gaza Strip,” he said. “Israel has relied on a global supply chain of arms, munitions and support services, primarily supplied by the United States but supported by many other states.” As the war continued, weapons-related imports to Israel increased. The data appears to bear that out.

Neve Gordon, an Israeli professor of international law and human rights at Queen Mary University of London, told Al Jazeera that “country after country has contributed to the evisceration of the international legal order by feigning blindness and refusing to abide by their legal obligations". “This is myopic. The very states that helped build this legal order, and invoke it constantly, are now playing a central role in its dismantlement.”

This part of my heart is now breaking. Amal, who's been on a poor diet because she can't afford better food, is unable to breastfeed baby Mina any longer, and is unable to afford enough formula to compensate, and now both mother and baby are weak and malnourished.

Amal is suffocating from the stress of having to provide for her daughters. Her husband Motasem is doing everything he can (recently, he was almost caught in a bombing while trying to get food) but they're both overwhelmed. I wish there was anything I can do for them.

I'm begging you to donate if you can and share if you can't. I want, more than anything in this world, for these kids to grow up healthy and for their parents to be able to rest.

my wife wanted to know if I had art she could use for her karaoke playlist, so I drew her fav 🥰
