Quick reminder today:

Always observe Shut the Fuck Up Friday

Two-panel screenshot from the Simpsons - on the top panel is a bus annoyedly saying "Don't make me tap the sign."

The bottom panel is the bus driver tapping a sign that reads "Do not post anything on social media that can be interpreted as an actionable threat."

Lots of families are seeing their donations go down since the ceasefire which is understandable but also they’ve lost everything and are hoping to rebuild or at least give their kids a stable home through the winter- if you can help ❤️

I’m sharing a Palestinian account every day and today is Basma. Basma was a makeup artist and did eyelash extensions before the war. She lost her home and the tower she worked in was recently destroyed. She has 4 children Tulin, 9, Malak, 7, Kamal, 5 and baby Maryam who is just 9 months old.

A fanart of two female light novel/anime characters- Sorawo and Toriko from Otherside Picnic.

One woman has short, black hair, a white shirt, and a red hoodie looking into the distance with an exhausted expression and loose body language being held by the other woman with long blonde hair, a white dress shirt with a blue ribbon, and a close eye solemn expression in a pond surrounded with grass under a blue, cloudy sky.

A portrait illustration of a woman, Michelle from the indie game, Sorry We’re Closed. She has long neon blue hair placed into curled sidetails. She is wearing a white t-shirt with a blue border with the words “Fish Fight” written in orange on the front, with a fuzzy, neon pink jacket on her. She is wearing green star earrings and a solid purple-black collar necklace as an accessory.

Two female video game characters (Kat and Raven from Gravity Rush)- one girl with blonde hair with brown skin, and other other with black and red long died hair and lighter skin- are embracing each other sitting on a bed in front of a green curtain, situated inside a giant sewer pipe.

The blonde girl is on the left of the girl with black and red hair, blushing and smiling as she is about to be kissed by the other on the cheek in their hug.

Art of my OC, Aimee, standing and posing with a peace sign wearing her high school uniform in a kogyaru/kogal style. Chibi heads of Aimee with different expressions (winking kiss face, crying, and smiling) are on the left of her.

Every time I see some kickstarter for an indie pilot where they want 20+ minutes for like, 10k USD, I want to manifest into the person's room and be like, "Hey kid, let's talk about budgets." #indieanimation

Black and white doodle of me getting down on one knee like a dad to talk to a young artist sitting at a computer. The screen says, "10k; 1 hour pilot."

If I had explain American history in one sentence, I could do worse than "John Brown was hung for treason, but Robert E. Lee was not."

lol not even if you waterboarded me.

When that pendulum swings, it's gonna be unbearable.

"I didn't realize how wrong it was until I saw/did if for myself" is among the most unbearable varieties of "Just Say You Don't Believe Marginalized People, But With Extra Steps."

[Image ID]: A picture of Hatsune Miku, as she appears in Love Attribute by Pinoccio P. She has grey skin, grey-green hair in heart-shaped braids, and one visible eye with a heart-shaped iris. She is wearing a white and green nurse costume. She is kneeling, bright turquoise blood running down her face, wide-eyed and fixated on the viewer. Several pale hands emerge from off screen, grabbing at her. The background is a dark purple with abstract drawings of hearts. [/End ID]

I’m sharing a Palestinian account every day and today is Fadi. Fadi is 19 years old and wants to go to school to be a software engineer. Instead of studying he has just been trying to survive after his family has been displaced many times. He has a new fundraiser to help him accomplish his goal.

The story below isn’t getting the attention it deserves because it’s happening to brown folk over there. But we’ve quickly forgotten how social media shaped political action in t& not the other way around. The Arab Spring, BLM on Twitter, G. Floyd on TikTok. 1/2

Nepal became the third South Asia country to have its government toppled by protesters in recent years. Generation Z youth led the movement, which was triggered and shaped by social media.

She is wearing a short green apron over a light yellow shirt and brown shorts, along with brown gloves and boots. She is holding a watering can with a rose motif on the side.
