What Am I To Do With My Life?

Hey artists, C. Spike Trotman, founder of Iron Circus Comics, just posted an invaluable thread on depicting different types of black hair. I’d do the thing where you screencap the whole thread and post it but it’s just too long (which is great because it’s a whole lot of useful information!) Give her a follow while you’re there.

Nobody.

Not even the people you think are the "bad people," whoever they may be to you.

There is no exception to this.

Nobody deserves to be crushed under a system that claims it is supposed to be for the people. Nobody deserves to be left to fend for themselves because we're afraid that the dogs might tear us apart too.

Even if it's a mutual or someone you know, if they start talking like this it is most definitely a scam. Try contacting the person on a different social media if you know them on any other platforms.

I've seen this scam going around so I blocked them immediately, but following on this they'll usually tell you to talk to a person from "tumblr support" on discord. Do NOT go to the discord they provide and do not otherwise engage.

Posting the message below so you know what to look for

Every day, I stand by their side, trying to heal their pain and give them hope — but now my presence depends on your support.

I don’t want to abandon them… these souls who have already lost so much.

But without your help, I have no choice.

Help me stay strong… help me keep standing… so that I can continue to save lives, to be a light in their darkest moments, and to remind them that humanity still cares.

Update on Anas and family

Thank you everyone sincerely for all the support and reposts, we’ve managed to boost his campaign quite a bit and he’s incredibly thankful as well.

Sadly, he needs to collect money for a new tent. He’s been sleeping outside and this has only worsened the effects of his skin condition, which he needs to take medicine for.

So if you see this, please repost, and if you can, please donate, every bit helps more than you could know. Every $5 is relief, is a chance at a future, so if you can spare, please donate.

Tagging for reach, sorry to bother, send an ask if you don’t wish to be tagged again.

My name is Abedmajed, and I live in Gaza with what remains of my once large and loving family.

In a single missile strike, we lost over 25 members of our family. They were not just names. They were mothers, daughters, sons, grandparents — people we shared meals with, laughed with, and built dreams with.

The missile hit our family home — the heart of everything we knew.

Among those killed were: 🕊️ My mother 🕊️ My sister 🕊️ My older brother His wife and their three daughters 🕊️ My uncle, his wife, and all their sons and grandchildren

We were left with nothing but rubble and grief. Yet somehow, my brother and I survived. And now, we carry the responsibility of rebuilding what was taken — not just for ourselves, but for our father, our surviving siblings, and the memory of those we lost.

💔 Why We’re Fundraising

This campaign is not just about survival. It’s about rebuilding a future — A family home, a shared life, a place where our father can rest safely, Where the next generation of our family can grow up knowing peace instead of trauma.

💬 The funds raised will help us:

🏗️ Rebuild our family home — which was completely destroyed 🛠️ Provide basic support for our father and siblings 🏡 Create safe, livable conditions for a family shattered by loss

🔒 How the Funds Are Managed

Due to the collapse of Gaza’s financial system, all donations are processed through my brother, who has a U.S. registered Stripe account. Funds are securely transferred to Gaza and distributed in cash here on the ground. We are transparent and ready to provide proof of every step.

🌱 Why Your Support Matters

We are not asking for charity. We’re asking for a chance to stand again, To rebuild something we can pass on to the children who survived.

Your support gives us the strength not just to remember the ones we lost — but to honor them by continuing.
