Queer and disabled, autistic as fuck. That idiot VOCALOID user who has wayy too many VOCALOIDs for their own good she/they/he If your tumblr has no content please don't be surprised if I block you. Been getting a insane amount of bot followers lately. If you are a real person and I block you for this please let me know on my twitter that I made a mistake.
Since the genocide began, 18 year old Haya Orouq (pictured on the right) has been working ceaselessly to get her family evacuated to safety.
Her mother, Amal (left), has lupus and is a kidney failure patient. The hospital she got her treatments at was just bombed and she no longer has access to the life saving medicine she needs.
Her younger sister, Lama (pictured with her mother Amal above), just turned 11 during the genocide. She is so young and has lost everything -- her safety, her school, her friends, and her home. Now she could lose her mother as well. 💔
Her father, Saleh (pictured with Haya above) and older brother Ehab, who is only 21, lost everything as well. They have been forced to move from place to place since their home was destroyed, and have had many close calls and terrifying sleepless nights with the sound of bombing all around them.
Follow Haya here on Tumblr @haya-orouq19 to learn more about her family's story. It is up to us to lift Palestinian voices and stories so that these atrocities and these lovely, brave, kind people are never forgotten or abandoned in the horrors committed against them. Free Palestine from the river to the sea, now and always! ♥️🖤💚🤍
a lot of ppl in the notes of the previous post are mentioning museums hoarding stolen cultural objects which is important beyond measure but museums shutting down due to lack of funding will not result in repatriation of cultural materials, they would most likely be auctioned off to private ultra-wealthy collectors to recoup some of their debt and we'd never find these objects again let alone be able to repatriate them. i understand the desire to say 'fuck museums let them die' for this reason but it won't have the result you think it will, and it will also mean that all of their ethically sourced and donated materials (which for most museums are the vast majority of their collections) will no longer be cared for by experts but again, sold off to private collectors who can do whatever they want with them or deteriorate in storehouses indefinitely. this would be catastrophic for public history and collective knowledge-sharing across the globe across cultures, and museums in post-colonial and run by/for racialized or otherwise oppressed ethnic groups will fall first because they receive FAR less funding than the large western institutions. just repeating phrases and sentiments you've seen online as a form of performative activism without knowing anything about what you're talking about does more harm than good and doesn't make you look smart or clever just foolish it's so deeply annoying and frustrating
