🇵🇸 From BDS:

This year’s Israeli Apartheid Week will be the most important since IAW was launched 20 years ago! With the ongoing Nakba at its height, Israel is carrying out the world’s first ever live-streamed genocide against 2.3 million Palestinians in Gaza while it continues to entrench its 75-year-old settler-colonial apartheid regime against all Indigenous Palestinians. Over the past few months, people around the world have carried out inspiring actions building people power to end state, corporate and institutional complicity in Israel’s #GazaGenocide and contribute to the Palestinian struggle for freedom, justice, and equality. With the failure of the international system, under US and Western hegemony, on full display, we will organize IAW throughout the month of March to bring justice from below. Save the date - March 1st - March 30th; an entire month of action and BDS mobilizations to end complicity in genocide, build grassroots power towards liberation and the dismantling of Israel’s settler-colonial apartheid regime. Let’s make this year’s IAW our most impactful ever!

In anticipation of the upcoming Israeli Apartheid Week, BDS has called for an escalation of our boycott campaigns.

To find out how you can join a specific BDS campaign, or how you can contribute towards IAW, you can use the search function on their website to find a BDS-affiliated organization in your country.

If you and your organization have an event planned for Israeli Apartheid Week (IAW), you can register them with BDS here.

🇵🇸 For individuals unaffiliated with an org, you can still support and participate in IAW by:

Boycotting all products from Israel and from companies profiting off the occupation of Palestine. Here are the official BDS targets. For a more extensive list of products, check in with one of the BDS affiliated organizations in your country (they might tell you, for instance, what processed food items at your local grocery store should be avoided).

Share information about BDS on social media, with friends and family, and with your local community.

For BDS targeted brands, refrain from making or sharing any content that helps that company's outreach and branding. No more memes mentioning the brand, no pictures showing their logo, no more free advertising. Boycotting here isn't just about the loss you as a costumer can inflict on the company by not purchasing their product, it's also about damaging the brand's reputation, and limiting their customer outreach.

I highly encourage you to join a BDS-affiliated org, but if for whatever reason you can't, then these are concrete and actionable steps you can take.

Again, for more information about BDS and Israeli Apartheid Week, you check in with the official BDS website.

I was stuck for inspiration and my friend @paperrebellion (Instagram) hit me with this palette challenge. I rather like the results and I’d like to revisit and push the concept some more.

Last day of @trephaweek! Some cuddling and a reprise of the “Will you come with me?” scene from season 2, because the prompt was “love language” and I see theirs as being touch and trust. I got to play with a bunch of new clip studio brushes too, which is always fun. 

(narrator: it was not fun. she screamed a lot.)

Day 6 of @trephaweek, prompt: Legacy. Trevor contemplates the enormity of not being the last Belmont anymore.

Reference from Getty, because babies are weird and funny looking.

I love these two dorks way too much.

Two days late, whoopsie! Day 3 of @trephaweek, prompt scars/trust.

This was my favorite prompt so I definitely want to come back and make a proper artwork once I’ve got more time. 

#trephaweek #trephaweek2022 #trepha #Castlevania #trevor x sypha #fanart

[rabidpotato]

For @trephaweek day 2, prompt: AU

My original idea was “modern zombie apocalypse AU,” and then three quarters of the way through fixing up the sketch my gremlin brain went “but what if shitty B-movie poster” so now I guess it’s also an acting AU! If your eyes are bleeding then that means I got the godawful poster vibe right.
