TIME-SENSITIVE PALESTINIAN FUNDRAISERS! PLEASE PAY ATTENTION!!!

Siraj (@siraj2024)

-> Siraj is a father of 3 young children and his family has been trying to rebuild their home since June. They have been forced to live in unsafe conditions in tents they have described as "a convection oven," and in the past week Siraj has narrowly escaped two of Israel's massacres that martyred hundreds of people. Despite his relentless efforts, his campaign has been moving slowly. His short term goal is $10k CAD, his final goal is $82k CAD, and he's currently at ~$7k CAD.

Wafaa (@wafans-blog)

-> Wafaa is a grandmother to a large family with very young children. She evacuated to Egypt 5 months ago and hasn't been able to see her family that whole time. Since then, she has been tirelessly campaigning for her family on instagram, tiktok, and tumblr. She has been shadowbanned and had her blog terminated multiple times. Her total goal is €60K and she needs to get there as soon as possible.

Shahed (@shahednhall)

-> Shahed is a 21-year-old university student and photographer. She is the sole provider for her family, including her father (a heart patient) and 5 younger siblings (the youngest of whom is an infant). Her sisters have severe hepatitis and urgently need medical care that is no longer available in Gaza and need to evacuate as soon as they get the chance.

THEY NEED TO MEET THEIR GOAL VERY SOON - DON'T DELAY!!!

DONATE AND SHARE! SAVE MONEY, PRESSURE YOUR FAMILY AND FRIENDS WITH DISPOSABLE INCOME! THERE ARE PEOPLE GOING INTO DEBT TO HELP PALESTINIANS GET TO SAFETY. IF THEY CAN DO IT SO CAN YOU. IF WE WORK TOGETHER AND WORK HARD WE CAN MAKE A REAL DIFFERENCE.

STEP UP.

Get over it. When you’re a Goddess, your presence is loud and you’ll be seen whether you like it or not. So why not own it? Stop shrinking and start basking in the spotlight. Don’t let being seen drain you, let it strengthen you. Envision yourself as a flower and envision the spotlight as the Sun, that is here to bring life, vitality, recognition, praise, prosperity, creativity, abundance and nourishment into your life.

Sometimes it's easy to forget that we spend most of our time stumbling around the dark. Suddenly, a light gets turned on and there's a fair share of blame to go around.

Pride Month

For Pride Month in June, Interact-IF is bringing back one of its beloved events, spotlighting queer (LGBTQ+) authors and their interactive fiction projects (here’s the 2021 series).

Throughout June, we hope to celebrate the massive queer representation these stories and games help provide, as well as the awesome IFs created by and for the queer community.

We will feature a masterlist of interaction fiction written by queer authors, and select a couple to interview about their experiences and creative process! The interview will be done fully via a text Q&A format.

Prep:

If you wish to be featured (whether in the masterlist or the extended interview, which will be done fully through a text Q&A format), do fill out this google form. Or, if you prefer, you could drop me, @allieebobo a message or an email at allieebobo@gmail.com with the following information: 

Name

Background/About you

Game(s)/Projects

A link to the game(s)/IF/intro post

A short blurb/description of the game(s)

Genre/Tags

(Optional) If your writing or experience has been shaped by your identity in any way, feel free to share more here as well :) 

Contact information (or how you’d like me to reply/contact you)

Do drop me a DM if you have any questions! Note that interactive fiction includes those written in ren’py and twine as well, not just Choicescript.

Interact-IF mods will contact selected authors by email/DM by the end of the month with a full set of questions that you can type out replies to, and send back to me via email. I’ll try to feature everyone who’s interested, but will discuss further if for whatever reason I am unable to feature everyone who reached out. 

P.S. If you know any authors who you’d wish to see featured, feel free to share this post with them or @ them when reblogging :)

Hello 🖐

I am Abdulrahman from Gaza.

I need your help to verify my account so that I can collect donations and save my family from danger.

https://gofund.me/bc721399

[Verified by 90-ghost | €20 of €20,000 goal]

Hello! We are happy to help, though we don't verify accounts - none of us are Palestinian, and only trusted Palestinians can do that. We are primarily an art account and we are not able to verify anything ourselves. This fundraiser has already been verified by 90-ghost though.

Everyone, please please please share and donate to Abdulrahman's fundraiser! He has lost his home and his job, and he and his family need to evacuate. They have only ONE donation so far, but we can change that!!!
