M0th-b0nes - Hi :)

Representative Rashida Tlaib (the only Palestinian member of the US Congress) holds up a sign saying "WAR CRIMINAL" and "GUILTY OF GENOCIDE" as Benjamin Netanyahu addresses Congress.

i've picked up on the fact that nobody reads these anymore so i'll try and keep it short. for more info, you can read more about her situation here & here.

my friend reema @reemagaza has been campaigning since march, that's almost 9 months. only now is she losing hope and feeling like she can't ask for our help anymore. her sister has just received surgery and is in great pain, her family has lost everything due to the genocide. these remaining funds are needed to support them.

there’s something so insane about people who used to love putting “free Palestine” in their bio now deciding they have pearls in need of clutching. how did you think Palestine was going to be freed? did you think that if we all wrote “free Palestine” in our blog titles the world would just say oh you know what, our bad? did you think if Palestinians protested really, really peacefully, that Netanyahu would be moved? did you think that essays about decolonization published in the neoliberal academy would do the trick?

or did you simply expect Palestinians to wait? to wait and watch every day as their loved ones are killed because they step out of line? as the journalists and medics are shot around them? as Israel commits war crimes against them and the world does nothing? raining white phosphorous down on an open-air prison where the exits are controlled, closed, bombed out? as the Sabra and Shatila massacres are forgotten and repeated and forgotten and repeated and forgotten and repeated in an endless cycle?

when you wrote “free Palestine” in your bio, what did you think it meant?

I wish we could teach each other how to love the way we can teach animals that aren’t supposed to be able to feel it.

@/kittiearie on tiktok wrote this caption on her video: "When the sundown sisters' feminism is being upset Margot Robbie wasn't nominated for an Oscar but silent on how women and girls in Palestine don't have access to pads, tampons, contraceptive pills and other hygeine products while mothers are having their children without anesthetics."

some of white western feminist advocacy boils down to viewing issues (problematically so) as one-dimensional. their praxis never includes reflexivity, accountability, and intersectionality; while they ensure that their OWN reproductive health rights are never threatened, they vastly ignore so many people suffering in the world just because it doesn't directly impact them -looking at their priorities is just always so shameless and despicable.

If you ever have trouble cutting pills:

There are scissors for pill cutting.

Pill cutters (the boxes with the blade in the top) were just crumbling my pills.

With the scissors, I cut all of my little 7mm / ¼inch pills in half, and half of those in half again.

In under ten minutes.

That includes the learning curve, getting the light angles right, and putting them back in the bottle.

Mine are Auvon brand, for those interested.

I’ve never been great at drawing super realistic art, and I think it’s because it never really held my interest. I just love stylized characters which is why I’ve been drawing them obsessively for over 20 years! Because of that, I’ve got a lot of ideas about how you can approach stylized anatomy - here’s a snippet of a longer video I made on this topic ✨
