The father of Warhammer 40k art direction and the man that has inspired me as an artist, down to inspiring my current artstyle (and I am sure will continue to inspire me, even in death). 40k just wouldn't be 40k had it not been for the foundation of grimdark sci-fi that he laid.

Farewell, you absolute legend.

This one hurt, her work had such a profound effect on my life, thoughts, and politics.

May her memory be a blessing

My daughters spend their days standing in long lines for water and bread instead of living their childhood 🥺 My husband was also injured while trying to bring food for us during the famine.

I created this fundraiser with a broken heart, only hoping to protect my daughters and give them a chance to live with dignity, safety, and hope again 🙏

Any donation, no matter how small, can help us survive. And if you cannot donate, sharing our story may help us reach someone who can, but please try to support us with a donation because my campaign is still new and my little girls desperately need your help 🌿

The occupation has announced that it will annihilate Gaza City – and they have been murdering the journalists who are bringing the truth to us...

People do not want to leave Gaza City, as they are starving, weakened, and know that once they leave they will never return – and they do not have a safe passage to the 'safe zones'.

People will be bombed and sniped either way... 123 people were killed within 24 hours, the death tolls are only increasing, the bombardments are ramping up – so global pressure and support must ramp up..

Very little food is being sold at exhorbant prices. The trickle of aid getting in is not enough – the airdrops that western and regional countries boast about are humiliating, they have killed people, and are filled with sand and mould...

Aid seekers have been shot, trampled, tear gassed... did you know that 1,600+ aid seekers have been killed in Gaza? They came with empty bullets, and got bullets instead... people have been kidnapped at these sites and held in detention... this isn't aid – its slaughter.

The trucks that are getting in get looted, and fave heavy constraints from the occupation. Our donations are helping people get food, and they are helping people not have to risk their lives...

Without a doubt, your donations are crucial, and a lack of donations can sent people to their deaths...

If you can afford to buy a cup of coffee, you can afford to help Mohammed Youssef ( @mokahaed ) and his family... he has five children – and they have been subjected to genocide and torture that no child should ever have to face... ever.

They are verified, number 88 on the @/gazavetters list ... and also verified here.

The last donation was 44 minutes ago as I write this.

"After our homes were completely destroyed, displacement number 14 has now been made from Al-Tuffah neighborhood in northern Gaza. My family of 27 and I do not own anything due to the sudden flight from the area. We do not even have the most basic necessities of life. No food, no clothing, no drink. I was not even able to bring a tent due to the urgent evacuation request from the area."

Could you imagine ?? please donate if you can...

I am Jaafar from Gaza. I am currently in northern Gaza, and we have not yet been displaced to the south. Things are very difficult here — the cost of moving to the south is $1,000, and a single tent also costs $1,000, if we can even find a place in southern Gaza. The south is overcrowded, and renting a plot of land costs $1,000 per month, or even more depending on the area. 🙂😢

I started a donation campaign in the middle of the war and received good support, but due to personal circumstances, I recently created a new link, and unfortunately, I have only received a small amount of donations so far. 😓💔 I appeal to you to help me with my new campaign and donate whatever you can 🥺😭. Every amount you give will save the lives of my family and me and may help us cover the cost of moving to southern Gaza! 😓 Thank you, and I pray that God blesses you and provides for you 🧡🫂

Christopher Wiggins at The Advocate:

Barney Frank, the trailblazing Massachusetts congressman whose razor-sharp political instincts and unapologetic visibility helped reshape both American liberalism and LGBTQ+ representation in public life, has died at 86, according to The Boston Globe. Frank died Tuesday night after recently entering hospice care at his home in Ogunquit, Maine, where he had been battling congestive heart failure, the Globe reported. For more than three decades in Congress, Frank stood at the center of some of the country’s defining political battles, from the AIDS crisis and gay rights movement to the fallout of the 2008 financial collapse. Equal parts policy architect and cable news combatant, he became one of the Democratic Party’s most recognizable liberals while also emerging as one of the most consequential out gay politicians in American history.

"Former Member of Congress Barney Frank’s legacy stretches beyond the landmark Dodd-Frank Act to include many laws to advance prevention, detection, and treatment of HIV/AIDS. We remember Barney as a trailblazer who was the first Member of Congress to come out as gay, and who moved many pieces of civil rights legislation forward," PFLAG National President Brian K. Bond said in a statement to The Advocate. "Sadly, his legacy is also marred by his own actions and failures on behalf of transgender people." Born Barnett Frank in Bayonne, New Jersey, on March 31, 1940, he graduated from Harvard College before later earning a law degree from Harvard Law School. He entered Massachusetts politics in the 1970s, serving in the state House before winning election to Congress in 1980.

In 1987, at a time when few national politicians were openly gay, and the AIDS epidemic was devastating LGBTQ+ communities, Frank publicly came out, becoming the first member of Congress to voluntarily do so while in office. The decision transformed him into a symbol of a rapidly changing political era and helped push LGBTQ+ visibility deeper into mainstream American life.

Frank also became one of Congress’s most persistent advocates for federal LGBTQ+ civil rights protections. For years, he championed the Employment Non-Discrimination Act, known as ENDA, legislation intended to ban workplace discrimination based on sexual orientation and, later, gender identity. The effort consumed much of Frank’s congressional career but repeatedly stalled amid Republican opposition and divisions within the LGBTQ+ movement. In one of the movement’s most contentious internal fights, Frank drew criticism from transgender advocates in 2007 after supporting a version of ENDA that protected sexual orientation but excluded gender identity protections. Frank argued at the time that a broader bill lacked enough support to pass Congress. Many LGBTQ+ activists viewed the compromise as a painful betrayal, while supporters defended it as a pragmatic attempt to secure at least partial federal protections in an openly hostile political environment.

[...] Frank retired from Congress in 2013 after 32 years in office. He married his longtime partner, Jim Ready, in 2012, becoming the first sitting member of Congress to enter a same-sex marriage, a year before the U.S. Supreme Court struck down key parts of the Defense of Marriage Act.

Former Congressman Barney Frank (D-MA) died at 86. Frank was the first out gay Congressperson who did so voluntarily, and helped champion several LGBTQ+ rights bills and the Dodd-Frank Act. He was the first sitting member of Congress to enter into a same-sex marriage.

However, Frank has been criticized by pro-trans advocates over being too willing to parrot GOP anti-trans attacks, as evidence in a CNN appearance weeks before his death.

My name is Maram, I am 25 years old from Gaza. I dreamed of a peaceful life, spending my life with my husband and my three children... but the war turned this dream into an impossible one 💔😭. We lived through this genocide with all its painful details and we are still suffering from it😭. We were so happy when the ceasefire was announced, and we returned to our homes in northern Gaza after being displaced for a year and a half in a tent in the south of the Gaza Strip. After repairing a small room in our destroyed house, we began to live there and start over. Unfortunately, the war came back, and it was even stronger than before 💔. Now, we have no shelter or source of income. We have used up all our savings during the war. I know I created my campaign very late, but that's because I have no other means to help my family 🙏. I am completely confident and hopeful that someone here will help us as much as they can and save my family in these tough circumstances 😔.

I know how painful and frustrating it is to start over from scratch, but I hope to get any amount for my family 🥺🙏.

✅️Vetted by @gazavetters, my number verified on the list is ( #585 )✅️

Winter is painful for those without shelter 😥 #Gaza is experiencing a humanitarian catastrophe amidst the world's indifference 😭

This is what our children are living through 😭😭

Not only did we drown, but the wind destroyed our tents. Now my children and I are homeless😭😭😭

Words have lost their meaning... and cries for help have no echo... #Gaza has drowned.

I appeal to your humanity, please donate for my children😭😭😭

I’m a 38-year-old mother living in northern Gaza with my husband and our 8 children 👩‍👧‍👦. Before the war, we had a peaceful life — full of love, family, and hope 🌸. But everything was taken from us in an instant 💣. Our home was destroyed, and now we are displaced, living in the open without food, shelter, or medicine ❄️🍞💊.

I had a fundraiser to help us survive, but sadly, it stopped working and I can no longer access it 😞. I’ve now launched a *new campaign* in hopes of finding kind people who can support us 🙏. Even though a ceasefire has begun, *nothing has changed* for families like mine — we are still struggling every day just to stay alive 💔.

*Please, if you can donate or share*, it would mean the world to us. Your support could help us find shelter and keep my children safe and warm tonight 🛌💖.

My name is Mahmoud. I live in Gaza with my family, and we are going through a very difficult financial situation. I tried to create a donation link for my family, but I couldn't find someone to help organize and manage the campaign 🥺💔So my friend Ahmed decided to support me by sharing his own family’s donation link, and we agreed to split the donations between our two families.

Right now, we have almost no food, and the cost of living has become unbearable due to the siege, soaring prices, and the closure of all crossings.Everything has doubled in price in an unimaginable way 🥲🥺

We might be forced to flee to southern Gaza after the announcement of a full invasion of Gaza City 💔

The bombing and destruction never stop — not for a single moment. There is no longer any real life in Gaza. We are just struggling to survive, trying to secure the bare minimum: water and food.

Winter is coming, and we have no winter clothing after our home was destroyed and we were displaced multiple times 😭🥲Please, we urgently need financial help to buy food and store some in case the situation worsens.

This is our donation link.

Please remember: donations are shared between two families. So, for the sake of God, help us, my friend. Save our children, my younger siblings, my parents, and even my older siblings — we are all homeless and hungry 🥺🥲💔

I am a father of two children 👨‍👧‍👦 from Gaza 🇵🇸, currently living through extremely difficult humanitarian conditions after losing my home due to the war 💔, and I am now displaced far from my original place of residence.

Life here is filled with daily challenges 😔, especially when it comes to providing basic needs such as food 🍞, water 💧, and care for my children.

My children are everything I have in this life ❤️, and I am doing my best to provide them with the minimum level of safety and food, but the current situation is very hard, and sometimes I cannot even provide them with a proper meal during the day 🍽️.

I also want to be able to provide my children with their school needs 🎒, such as supplies, stationery ✏️, and basic materials that help them continue their education despite the difficult conditions 📚.

I am only writing this because I have reached a point where I can no longer manage on my own 😞. Therefore, I am asking for help from anyone who is able to support, even with a small amount 💵, as it may help feed my children or ease part of our suffering.

Every contribution, no matter how small, makes a big difference in our lives 🌱. And if you are unable to help financially, sharing this post 📢 could reach someone who can, and that would also be a great support for us.

I still believe there are kind hearts 🤍 that can help in times of need.

Thank you to everyone who read this post 🙏, and thank you to everyone who helps or shares the message.🥹👨‍👩‍👧‍👦

They should also say: “married Jane Fonda for a while.”

Before the war, we lived a simple, peaceful life in Gaza. My wife and I were raising our six children—four boys, one girl, and our baby daughter who had not yet turned one. Our home was small, but it was full of laughter, warmth, and love. 🏡❤️

Then, in a single moment, everything was gone.

Airstrikes destroyed our home. The walls that once protected my children turned into rubble. I still remember the sound… the fear in their eyes… the way they held onto me as we ran for our lives. I couldn’t take anything with me—only my family. 😢💥

Now, we live in a fragile tent in a refugee camp. ⛺

The cold does not wait. The wind enters from every side. At night, my children cannot sleep—not because of noise, but because of hunger. My baby daughter cries in my arms, and I have nothing to give her. No milk. No warmth. Only empty hands and a broken heart. 🥶👶💔

As a father, this is the deepest pain—to see your children suffer and feel helpless.

Every day is a battle. I search for food. I try to keep our tent standing. I try to protect my children from sickness, fear, and despair. I am doing everything I can… but it is not enough. 😔

I need your help.

I want to be honest with you: during my last fundraising campaign, I was scammed. At a time when we had nothing, we lost even more. It broke me—but I refused to give up on my children. ⚠️💔

Now, I have created a new campaign with the help of a trusted friend, so your support can safely reach my family. I am asking you from my heart—please give us another chance. 🤝

Your help can save my children. 🙏

Even a small donation can mean: 🍞 Food for my hungry children

🍼 Milk for my baby daughter

💊 Medicine when we are sick

🧣 Blankets to survive the cold nights

Please, my friends… do not turn away.

If you cannot donate, please share my story. Your share could reach someone who can help save my family. 📢

From a father who is trying not to lose everything

Thank you for standing with us. ❤️
