Hey everyone, please consider buying the 2024 itch.io Palestinian Relief Bundle- it's 373 games, game-making assets, tabletop roleplaying games, zines, and comics for a minimum of just 8 USD! They have a goal of 100,000 USD, and as of the time I'm writing this post, they have 8 more days to reach it.
i finished his reference. the rest of his groups references are coming up later on. some useless info about him below the cut
some things are subject to change i guess
one fun fact. he has a service animal (or something along those lines???)
his design as a whole was supposed to have void sea (mostly through the color gold/yellow), ancient, and echo motifs so i tried to make the ribbons resemble an echos limbs(?) but the patterns felt too complex, so i removed them. i think the ribbons without the exact patterns are good enough anyway
I bring you, sluggies. Everyone from Survivor to Watcher and Enot. After hours of work on both the designs and then the sprites, I'm so glad that they're done !! Hope ya all like em, and happy sluggin :]
Mahmoud Abu Salama is doing an amazing thing in North Gaza! He is starting a project to help Deaf Palestinian women use their pastry making skills while also distributing food to families in need. This is helping both the women make a bit of a living and feed the hungry in the North.
By donating, we’re helping Mahmoud hire more women who take pride in helping both themselves and their communities! So please feel free to donate if you have a few dollars to spare, or spread the link if you're unable! Any little bit helps!

Difficult question time for aspec people and people who struggle with intimacy
-
Pick the one that troubles you the most.
"But ace people can have sex !/ Aro people can be in relationships !" I know but there was not enough space to specify 'repulsed' or 'people who do struggle with relationships of any type'.
I didn't add "I'm worried people won't accept me" or something similar because I'm asking about problems you have with yourself.
The thing that abled people who advocate for the disabled community don’t get is that there are times when disabilities/accommodations clash. Horribly.
Like I spent years having to come up with a solution to get therapy dogs into a series of residence halls. Why years? Because we had to decide who got to stay and who got to leave: the people who needed therapy dogs or the people with severe allergies to animals. Who got the alternative housing?
Things like fidget toys might seem great for some disabled people but having them in the room could be distracting/overstimulating for others. The same goes with stimming. It can’t be helped but neither can the anxiety that another person in the room feels as they watch/hear it. Additionally, something like a weighted blanket might immediately calm one kid down and send the other one into a panic attack due to the claustrophobia it causes. (*Points to myself*)
Every Metro bus in New York City has a series of seats at the front that can be lifted up to accommodate people in wheelchairs but if I’m in one of those spots then someone with a cane/walker has to journey even further to sit down.
The flashing lights of a fire alarm are there to help deaf/hearing impaired but if they’re not properly timed, they can also cause a person to have a seizure.
The worst part about all of these is that there is rarely a concrete solution that makes everyone happy/safe. And I’m not here to offer any because I don’t know them. I’m just here to remind you all that as you’re taking your education/health classes, as you’re reading your textbooks, as you’re preparing to go be an advocate, just remember that there is rarely ever such a thing as a one-size-fits-all solution to advocacy and that something you do that can help one disabled person might actually hinder another.
Wanted to reblog this with my revised sliver designs. Because theyre way cooler than this one. Even if its just a simple body/shape revision i prefer them a million times more now—ignore that one weird ass arm in the second one dw about it
