Mr. Dandelion

We have lost our home and my advocacy bureau , leaving us with nothing but the clothes on our backs. In search of safety, we have become refugees, fleeing to another city where we now face immense challenges. 🥹

My fundraising campaign vetted @mohammedalanqer

The war has torn apart our lives, and we are struggling to find stability in this new place. Basic necessities like food, clean water, and shelter are scarce. The trauma of the conflict weighs heavily on us, but we are determined to rebuild our lives and create a safer future for our children.🥲🥲

🍉🍉🍉

We need your support to get back on our feet. Your generous donations will go towards:

• Emergency Shelter: Helping us secure a safe place to live.

• Food and Water: Providing us with essential nutrition and clean water.

• Medical Care: Access to healthcare for our family, especially our children who have been deeply affected by the trauma.

• Education: Ensuring our children can continue their education and have a chance at a better future.

• Rebuilding Livelihoods: Helping us restart our business or find new means of income to become self-sufficient again.

Every Contribution Counts:

No amount is too small. Every dollar brings us one step closer to stability and a chance to rebuild our lives. Your support means the world to us during this dark time.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for your kindness and generosity. Your support not only helps us materially but also gives us hope that better days are ahead.

Please share our story with your friends, family, and community. Together, we can overcome this hardship and start anew.

With heartfelt gratitude,

Abd Alhadi Abu ras and Family

Thank You 🙏♥️

**A Young Man’s Plea for Help:**

My name is Khaled,alanqar and I am 24 years old, living in Gaza. I work as an aluminum technician, a profession I’ve been passionate about for years. My workshop, which I built with my own hands, was my primary source of income and a symbol of my hard work and dedication.

However, the recent war in Gaza has turned my life upside down. My home was destroyed, and along with it, my workshop—the very foundation of my livelihood. In a matter of moments, everything I had worked so hard for was reduced to rubble.

My workshop and my home before it was destroyed due to the war

This my workshop and my home after it was destroyed due to the war..💔😭💔

**Why I Need Your Help:**

I am reaching out to you today because I need your help to rebuild my life. The funds raised will go towards:

- **Rebuilding my workshop:** So I can get back to work and support myself and my family.

- **Finding a safe place to live:** To restore some sense of stability and security.

- **Basic necessities:** Food, clothing, and essential items to survive this difficult time.

**Every Donation Counts:**

No donation is too small. Every dollar you contribute will bring me one step closer to rebuilding my life and regaining the ability to provide for myself and my loved ones.

**Please Share My Story:**

Even if you are unable to donate, sharing my story with others can make a world of difference. Your kindness and generosity are greatly appreciated.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

A small comic about Palestine I created to appeal to more passive family and friends

Anyways if you have the money I urge you to donate to Ibraheem Hadi, a Palestinian who contacted me and whom I promised to highlight in relation to this comic:

The Animation Guild has been in negotiations with the AMPT (studios) to get better protections against AI, better pay, fewer layoffs, and generally more respect as an industry. To raise awareness, Animation Workers Ignited (not officially affiliated with TAG but a community-run account made to build support and organize) have been releasing animated PSAs starring Adam Conover (Adam Ruins Everything) as a fast-talking, suited-up organizer and Alex Hirsch (Gravity Falls) as a green-shirted, scared audience stand-in.

Sometime last night, Alex Hirsch and the director of the shorts shared exchange in the comments of their most recent PSA on twitter:

Which led to:

And finally, the art that kicked this whole thing off:

So, because this is the animation industry, everyone immediately jumped onto the new ship and started drawing fanart for it, ranging from silly doodles to full art pieces

AWI themselves are fully supportive of this and see it as a great way to spread awareness and get people to engage with the union. Even the Canadian Animation Guild posted about it. We are genuinely helping their cause by posting yaoi art. This is a good thing. Great, even.

🔹If someone else's fiction is causing you emotional or psychological harm, or distress, you can put it down and not read/watch it.

🔹Your emotional well-being is not the responsibility of fiction writers.

🔹Someone else's fiction is not about your personal trauma.

🔹When reading or watching fiction, you always have the power. You can always stop. You are never reading fiction without your own consent.

🔹Fiction writers are not responsible for other people's mental health.

🔹The content of a piece of fiction does not reflect on the morality of its author.

🔹Just because someone writes about bad things happening, doesn't mean they want those things to happen.

-discomfort is not the same as harm and acclimating yourself via fiction to strongly unpleasant emotions such as sorrow, indignation, and disgust will make you stronger and healthier

thanks to @hannahdra-ws for quote, its very cursed indeed.

People on tumblr: Voting upholds a fascist system so we should all just sit around and daydream about being communist revolutionaries instead.

People on Tumblr: If you as an American leftist really wanted the world to be a better place you’d just let your entire country collapse, and if you try to argue that maybe we shouldn’t let millions of marginalized people die just because the government is shitty then you’re secretly a fascist.
