platforming palestinian joy is just as important as sharing the suffering they're enduring during this genocide. despite continued displacement and bombardment, you cannot steal their joy and spirit. happy birthday to this sweet baby 🖤🇵🇸 may they grow up to see a free palestine
edit: @saffronlesbian made a video description for this post!!
[vd: a screen recording of a tweet from the 20th of April 2024 with 2.5 million views, from Ruhi @/ruhi_hi. the caption reads, "This video of this little Palestinian angel celebrating his bday in a refugee camp" followed by three emoji of a smiling face with teary eyes. the video clip is 11 seconds long and shows a one-year-old baby seated on the sandy ground, smiling hugely and clapping his hands while people sing to him from offscreen and a large cake is placed in front of him. stuck into the top of the cake is a decoration that reads "happy birthday" in english. the video has the tiktok handle @/ibrahim.jamal99 visible in it. /end vd.]
TWO HOURS AGO: an incredible photo taken by a ut austin student capturing something deeply poetic in my opinion, a line of state troopers eagerly waiting to arrest student protesters standing just behind a sign that reads "what starts here changes the world. its starts with you and what you do each day."
You can donate to the Palestine Children's Relief Fund for as little as $1.00.
There is a fee you can choose to apply to cover processing.
Which if you choose to do leaves you with a total of ~$1.35 (USD) depending on the type of card you have.
PCRF has a score of 97% on Charity Navigator.
Adults and children alike are currently dying in Palestine due to starvation. (World Health Organization Link)
The Gaza Strip is one of two places in the entire world that is categorized as Phase 5 (the highest phase) on the Integrated Food Security Phase Classification scale.
So even if you think it isn't enough, remember that donating even as little as $1.35 helps! It's $1.35 they wouldn't have had otherwise. So donate if you can. 🇵🇸
Ramses Recommends Special Expiring Kickstarter Edition: Slasher U
So, this is definitely going to be different from a usual RR, in that I'm recommending a kickstarter campaign with only 10 days to spare.
Slasher U started as a few OCs of artist Janie Lee ( @junkmixart ), who you might know for her "counselor Jason" comic.
I eagerly encourage any and all Spooky Month and Hatchetfield (especially NPMD) fans who finds this to back the project. We're on the cusp of the second to last stretch goal (61.4k of 62k), with a final stretch goal at 75k.
With an immediate sense of intrigue and healthy variety to both the slashers and corral of victims, there's definitely some element of this my average follower will love!
Webby and Miss Holloway are effectively just married by virtue of being two immortal beings who can remember eachother and they're very mushy about it.
Miss Holloway is a monster fucker for this. She loves her eldritch spider wife.
