Vetted family fundraiser masterpost 1

Version date: May 7th 2024.

This is a masterpost for the evacuation fundraisers I've vetted so far. The numbers next to the names have no significance beyond ease of navigation for me for when I check their progress in the future. You should look at the disclaimers instead and focus on those. Occasionally I will update these with new info, including new fundraisers, and the amount of cash that's been raised. Check in regularly on the original post when you see it being reblogged. In all likelihood once its reached you it's already outdated. This post is part of this masterpost series compiling fundraisers for Ghazzah and Sudan. I focus on Ghazzah as I am Palestinian and am more equipped to do verifications as I'm more familiar with my own country and its politics and dialect, but if I know a fundraiser for a Sudanese family is legit I will include it here.

lmao the way Nesta is perceived and treated by other characters especially in the later books really is reflective of that classic older sister experience that people always harp on over tik tok

the way other older sisters talk about her also further proves that point and it lowk cracks me up because how are you invalidating your own statements and simultaneously proving them

#pro nesta #nesta archeron

It kinda baffles me how people just want Feyre to hate Nesta forever and never feel like Nesta’s made up for her childhood. Like a good relationship with her sister MAKES her happy??? It just feels like more projection and wanting Feyre to be the forever victims who everyone always owes

I just saw a post by @looseleaflettuce where your anon makes a super important comment:

It was only after I read this that I realized. Amarantha is a harassers (and a female portrayed as villain) Iantha is a harassers (and a female portrayed as villain).

Why are only women harassers but men (Rhysand and Cassian) aren't portrayed as such too?

Not only did Rhysand harass Feyre in the first book, he also drugged and manipulated her the entire time (and has clear signs of being Gaslighting).

Cassian I don't think I need to say anything. The guy is toxic as fuck, you can see it in ACOSF.

When women are not harassing, they are hypersexualized.

Morrigan, Nesta (my god all the time), even Feyre sometimes.

nxncydrew

it's because the lashback to 2010s internet era feminism made it popular to be edgy and have examples of female abusers because "it's so deep and real to acknowledge that women can hurt men!!!" (ex: fifty shades of grey) w/o doing actual introspective on how patriarchy sets up a mediocrity framework that allows men to get away with abuse in the first place. even in fiction, women can only be Abusers if they are insanely overpowered positions (like evil fae court lady idk) or age gap/wealth gap — meanwhile cassian is literally just some guy to nesta at first and is STILL an immediate threat to her. it's annoying because it allows authors to get praise for showing "situations that aren't as seen" when it's not actually about acknowledging ways in which women can benefit from other power structures (ex: wealth, race, cishood, etc.) it's about seeming more progressive and Against the Popular Wave (read: feminism aka Woman Good) and therefore Unique/Revolutionary. and we all know how authors like sjm love being not like the other girls.

edit: you know what? let's talk about nessian re: being edgy by trying to show that Women Can be Bad Too ™. i am severely uncomfortable with sjm trying to do a classism inequality storyline with nessian by acting like nesta has power over cassian because she's wellbred as a human and he's not a royal fae or whatever. it's pathetic and she's actually out of her mind when she tries to argue that it's actually possible for nesta to do anything in this dynamic that's a breach of power. nesta has NO power here — but sjm uses cassian's traumatic backstory to be like See Evil Rich Women hurt him so that's why it's Good that he tames nesta and teaches her to be a good obedient woman!

sadlybluespirited

Edit to add : there's also something incredibly concerning with how SJM constructs Cassian's character (who by description closely resembles a MOC) to be aggressive and sexually dominating specifically towards Nesta (someone he's overtly sexually attracted to). I'd argue that racially ambiguous male love interests who are written like Cassian and Rhysand get away with being written in this way because of racial stereotypes and fantasies going unchecked. I've seen the way people speak about how much Nesta should've been happy about being locked up with Cassian because to some, it's idyllic for him to be like that. And I wouldn't have such complaints about it if SJM had explored his personality beyond that, investigated why he feels he can only give his body to Nesta that way. Why he feels slighted by her and inferior to her despite the obvious power imbalance in their relationship (he has a rank of command, can leave the HoW whenever he wants and she has none of that). It has to be questioned why it's "sexy" and appealing that Cassian is written like this and allowed to be behave this way but Tamlin's sexual behaviour (who by description resembles a white man) is seen as uncomfortable. If not uncomfortable, we can recognize the toxicity of it in acomaf. We're not subverting anything by writing male love interests like this. We're just reinforcing things.

I feel like the best evidence that I can put forward of how a lot of SJM fans have lost the ability to comprehend is the reaction to SJM’s Mother in law bit on call her daddy.

she mentions how her MIL asked if the sex scenes were inspired by Sarah and her husband Josh, to which Sarah is naturally uncomfortable. It’s a weird question, yes, but I imagine that she was just reading it and realized most authors write from life experience and thus.. still a weird question but I doubt it was in a “I think of my son sexually way”

But somehow fans ran with it as “Sarah’s mother in law likes to imagine her son when she’s reading the scenes”

This is why I don’t trust them when they talk about what’s clearly implied in the book and what’s not 😭

i’m not going to talk about this too much hopefully but in the literacy meltdown we are experiencing as a nation (as a world, and only worsening with the rapid propagation of machines designed to do our thinking for us), it feels insidious and dystopian to watch the most prominent figure in book publishing go on a podcast (one of the largest in the world) and lament about how literature is boring, intellectualism is out, and bend over backwards to convince the audience that she’s actually a cool-girl (i have a labubu! me and margot (robbie, but we’re on a first name basis) are sooo similar, hand me a spicy marg!), while also answering as few direct questions as possible about her literature.

there were opportunities to address controversy within her books and she skirted them all with half answers (why make feyre’s pregnancy so horrific and strip her of all her bodily autonomy? sjm talked about her own pregnancy for 10+ mins, but never closed the loop on this. yes, it was the author’s own experience. WHY write it this way? to not shrink back from reality, to hold up a mirror so other women might feel represented? both good reasons. if the doctor who brutalized sarah is an asshole, why did his fictional counterpart face no repercussions? — why do the women routinely lose their powers and the men do not? sacrifice is important. okay, agreed! why are only the women making these sacrifices time and time again?)

i know it’s foolish to look to someone like sjm of alllll people for a scrap of intellectualism in this bleak landscape, but i will never stop believing that power begets responsibility. if she’s going to be the face of publishing (which is a pedestal she has earned through massive sales and engagement, because her writing resonates with her devoted readers), can she at the very least show some semblance of respect for the institution? i’m so tired of the booktok girlypop anti-intellectual feminism i can’t take it anymore

underrated insane part of that interview was her saying she didn’t see the point of her required poetry class in college. that’s right, the fantasy writer didn’t think learning poetry would improve her writing skills!

wingsdippedingold

I feel like this is somehow related to Tamlin 🤔

#tamlin acotar #pro tamlin #he deserves it after that interview #anti sjm #anti acotar #sjm critical

caught snippets of SJM’s CHD interview

learning how rich she is now and more importantly was before she sold the books makes her portrayal of poverty and Feyre make WAYYY more sense (not that I ever thought she wasn’t rich)

#anti sjm #sjm critical #anti sarah j maas #anti feyre #anti acotar #anti rhysand

I don't know if it's just me but I really don't get the fascination and why people simp so hard for Azriel. At best he feels like an incel and at worst he seems a more than willing enabler of Rhysand and Cassian abuse of Fayre and Nesta. And when it comes to how he treats Elain, he only views her as a mere sex object, not an actual person with her own wants and needs. But then again neither does the author writing her.

imo it’s because he’s pretty blank, he has bad buy vibes and is more redeemable than the other bat bros; we also know the least about him. He’s probably the easiest to insert whatever traits you want onto and he’s also not yet coupled up with someone in the series

Every day I remain in this fandom the concept of leaving becomes more and more appealing, for the salveging of my mental health alone.

I also hope you are doing good and are having a good day 🩷

me too 😭

I stopped posting on tumblr cause it go so draining but it’s still all over my tik tok

My days off to an odd start but thank you! I hope you’re doing well as well! 😋

SJM could be an intelligent author and use literary devices beautifully, BUT that does not mean that she doesn’t have a glaring POC and LGBTQ blindspot despite regularly including characters of those identities into her stories.

Being able to craft a great narrative and write complex characters and having personal ignorance or biases are not mutually exclusive.

This is one of my BIGGEST gripes when it comes to theorizing about SJM’s books and how she’s actually going to creative a masterful narrative and wrap up all her plot points, because maybe she will but that also half the time excuses the way she has written the CoN and Illyria thus far, because maybe she will give them the grace they’re due, but her track record for it makes me less hopeful.

I have yet to find a character that is explicitly poc in the text (art after the fact doesn’t count) not hit with a weird trope besides Tarquin.

Furthermore, if the human brain looks for patterns and connections they will find it, even if they’re not actually there. I’m not sure how many of the connections in Sarah’s writing are connections, and how many are just a product of her having all of her previous books subconsciously in her mind.

The ACOTAR fandom has a huge issue when it comes to how we talk about misogyny and female characters, and honestly, it’s time to clear up some major misconceptions. There’s been a growing claim that Nesta stans call any criticism misogynistic when, in reality, the issue is not about people simply disliking her. It’s about how female characters are criticized versus how male characters are excused, forgiven, or even praised for the same things.

So let’s break this down:

People are absolutely allowed to dislike Nesta, Elain, Feyre, or any female character without it being misogyny. Not every criticism is inherently sexist, but the way it’s framed and applied matters.

Not liking Nesta because her personality doesn’t appeal to you → Not misogynistic

Calling her an irredeemable abuser while ignoring that male characters have done worse → That’s misogyny

Thinking Elain’s storyline is underdeveloped → Not misogynistic

Acting like Elain has no value in the story because she doesn’t fight → That’s misogyny

Criticizing Feyre for her choices as High Lady → Not misogynistic

Expecting Feyre to be perfect while excusing Rhys’s mistakes → That’s misogyny

The problem isn’t that people dislike Nesta, Feyre, or Elain.

The problem is that the fandom constantly moves the goalposts when it comes to female characters and refuses to apply the same logic to the men.

The problem is not that people dislike Nesta, Feyre, or Elain.

The problem is that they are judged in ways that male characters are not.

And that is misogyny.

It doesn’t mean that every single criticism of them is inherently sexist, but when patterns emerge where female characters are held to higher standards, villainized for things men are forgiven for, or boxed into one-dimensional archetypes, that’s when the issue becomes clear.

No one is saying you have to love every female character.

But if you only have vitriol for the women while excusing the men, maybe it’s time to ask why.

You wanna know how I know that Tamlin hatred makes 0 sense?

Someone made a tik tok about what cars the ACOTAR characters would drive and everyone got a normal car. Tamlin got a cyber truck with “no explanation needed”

TAMLIN???? CYBER TRUCK??? Y’all will really just push any negative stereotype onto him as if he’s the quintessential evil man.

HI 🙋‍♀️ I have come to the conclusion that every HL of the NC was a bad person.

As the history goes, at first Hewn City was the main city but then a HL made Velaris in secret. But in order to keep Velaris a secret the image of the CoN had to remain constant. So did some people just have to continue to live in Hewn City to maintain the image. Or was the NC just never visited by other courts? Furthermore, why was Hewn City so bad in the first place that it needed a shinier place, considering that’s where all the efforts of ruling was put. Was it just a product of bad rulership? This means he never tried to fix an systemic issue with the HC, but just jumped ship and build his personal utopia.

Later a different HL basically kicked all his adversaries and opposers into the CoN. That kinda implies that the CoN was only for bad people (because that’s totally not how tyranny starts), but people also had to already be living there anyway to maintain the image of the CoN. So as bad as simply making it a political prison is, it’s even worse.

What’s also interesting is that Rhysand usually says “we” when talking about the actions of his predecessors, for example ending the human enslavement.

Hewn City has always been the “official” city of the NC and is where the official seat of the HL is. Yet all the HLs preferred Velaris because it was specifically built to be their little perfect city because none of them actually gaf about fixing the CoN.

Adding that history of neglect for over 5,000 years to the current treatment of the CoN makes it so much worse and really puts into perspective how the IC actually isn’t progressive at all

banging my head on a desk every time I find an Instagram page that’s going on a self-victimized tirade about how they’re being persecuted and accused of using AI, when it’s abundantly clear to anyone who’s spent time looking at ai image generation models and their outputs that it IS Ai generated in some way. Like if you’re familiar with bing ai image generation, then you can spot its art style from a mile away.

And people falling for the speedpaints is so annoying when it literally cuts out half of the process that gets it from messy sketch to an outline. If you just zoom in on details half of them blend together or make no sense. Please use your brains 😭😭

I’m not even saying this from an artist perspective???

It’s just fucking annoying because WHY are you lying so hard. No you’re not just a lil ol’ artist making art because you enjoy it, you’re actively lying because you know it’s wrong. It is YOUR FAULT that you didn’t do a good enough job of covering up your ai usage. Like at least some accounts have the (minuscule) decency to write that they use ai, because at least they don’t try to cover it up

And half the time they can actually do art too????
