There is currently a strike for Palestine taking place from February 18th, 2024, to February 25th, 2024. During this time, I will only be posting about Palestine on this account and doing what I can to spread awareness. If you are able, I highly recommend participating in the strike in whatever way you are able - something is always better than nothing. Staying home from work and/or school, not buying anything that isn't strictly necessary, using your social media platforms only to boost posts about Palestine, etc., are all ways to help the efforts!

Below are various links for ways you can help Palestine, including educational resources, petitions, fundraisers, etc. If you have any to add on, please do, these are just the ones I've found so far.

The second image shows the two figures again, reaching out to each other. Their reaching arms have been merged together into a wiggly, distorted shape, with explosive shapes behind it and on it. A red call icon is off to one side of them, and above them is a screen showing two realistically-drawn but staticy hands reaching out to each other but not quite touching. "when the connection is bad / we struggle through static and silence / to reach each other again"

The third image shows two shooting stars, each one a gradient of many different colors, twined around each other. "despite our distance, our lives are entwined"

The fourth panel shows a sun, with a pink line running behind it and connecting it to another sun towards the bottom of the panel, partially hidden behind colorful clouds. "i send him a midday sky / and he replies with a sunrise / i love the world / because he is in it"
