Thank you to @sleepnoises for making the original poll & for giving us the idea to to this :)

Sorry if we couldn’t get your favorite on here, we were limited to only 12 options (11 if you don’t include the “other” option).

[agentravensong]

just updated my pinned post for the first time in at least 2 years 👍

[agentravensong]

The student protests for Palestine have been an amazing show of solidarity and support and seeing the way that so many young people are willing to stand up for their values is admirable when so many others stay silent. But this is all to say that we are entering a pattern of glorifying these white “martyrs” from the global west to put all of this effort and resources and media coverage into instead of the actual cause they are fighting for.

I saw the same thing happen with Aaron Bushnell, when his self immolation was being talked about more than the actual genocide in Gaza (which went against everything he said he was self immolating for in the first place).

And again this happened with the prisoner from the US who worked 136 hours just to be able to donate his $17 check to Palestine aid efforts. In response to this, people wanted to help him and ended up raising over $100,000 in a gofundme for him. This feels almost satirical, as every gofundme to help Gazans evacuate Palestine and get to safety has a goal of less than $100,000 and most of them are not even close to reaching it.

And now, there are more and more posts on how to get aid to the college student encampments, and the “urgency” of getting enough bail funds for the students who have been arrested during them. Talking about Palestine itself and getting resources to Palestine has almost been put on the back burner in favour of making all Palestine related news about college students in the United States.

It think it is valuable to recognise the selflessness and importance of these protests, and getting these students resources but what is MORE important, and what these people are truly fighting for, and protesting, and make a statement about is PALESTINE. We have unsurprisingly reached the point where there are people who care much more about the white people fighting for the cause from the comfort of living in the global west than they care about the Palestinians undergoing a genocide in Gaza. It’s become almost blatant racism, the way people begin to drop everything the second a white/usamerican person does something in regards to helping Palestine, but will not put the same effort into a Palestinian IN Gaza who is telling their story or asking for help. I respect anyone who has done absolutely anything to help Palestine, but I hope people are starting to see the pattern of how the media gravitates towards the “white saviour/perfect martyr” instead of the first hand accounts coming from those in Gaza.

Anyway FIND A GOFUNDME AND DONATE TO HELP FAMILIES IN GAZA ESCAPE GENOCIDE

you know, if i wasn't currently fully in the ghost trick hole, the hype and discussion around the rediscovery of the source of image_depths might have given me enough motivation to finally make a video out of water theory. alas.

[agentravensong]

speaking of ghost trick, actually, i have a sideblog for it now! mostly because there's only, like, a couple people following me whom i know wouldn't be impacted by ghost trick spoilers, and i need a place to talk about and share stuff relating to this game where spoilers are expected at all times.

that being said, if there is anyone else following me who is actually also a ghost trick fan and therefore won't have their chance at a fresh experience of this wonderful, excellently told mystery story ruined by having (more) spoilers for it on their dash...

it's @kismet-cat :)

was 100% not prepared to be called out by name at the end of tonight's secret sleepover society stream of ghost trick re: my prediction that it's gonna take them two more streams to finish. now i really hope i'll end up being right, lol

Fundraiser masterpost

Latest update: 21/04/2024.

This is a masterpost for the evacuation fundraisers I've vetted so far, a few other fundraisers I find trustworthy but have not been able to vet (inability to communicate with the organizer), and a few semi-completed fundraisers or fundraisers for a different purpose (like house rebuilding, or aid distribution). The numbers next to the names have no significance beyond ease of navigation for me for when I check their progress in the future. You should look at the disclaimers instead and focus on those. Occasionally I will update these with new info, including new fundraisers, and the amount of cash that's been raised. Check in regularly on the original post when you see it being reblogged. In all likelihood once its reached you it's already outdated. Also please don't overlook the Sustainable Aid options near the bottom! The brain drain is already creating problems but having another way of keeping or creating new knowledge and key members of a functioning society is important.

Have u heard about the flotillas departing now/soon for palestine

yes!!! i think everyone should learn about the freedom flotilla, which is setting sail for gaza very soon and needs to have eyes and ears on it, as israel has a long history of attacking, raiding and occaisonally killing humanitarian workers on aid ships to gaza, as they did in 2010 with the first freedom flotilla (because that's how long Gaza has been under siege)

here's an interview with journalist and lawyer dylan saba, who is setting sail on it and is a good person to follow to learn more about it:

and this is their website:

remember to follow and check #freedomflotilla on twitter in the coming days.

[agentravensong]

the stuff going on at columbia campus rn is genuinely incredible

[agentravensong]

very funny to see one of my screenshots of my pdf copy of ragad with my highlights show up in someone else’s ragad post. that’s how you know you’ve made your mark in a tumblr fandom i guess :)

[agentravensong]

Besan reached out to me to help share her fundraiser. She is urgently raising money to evacuate her parents and siblings from Gaza to Egypt. She has only made €3,290 out of her €25,000 goal so far! Please donate and share, and if you can’t donate, please still share!

From Besan’s GFM:

Hello, my name is Besan.

I am from Gaza, currently in Germany since November 21th.

As much as it pains me to resort to fundraising, it is the only option left for me to save my family's life.

I feel useless.I want them to stay alive. ‏

My family, consisting of my mother, father, sisters and brothers, have been forced to evacuate five times so far, moving to what was supposed to be safer places, but there is no safe place anymore. When the war started, they were evacuated hoping they could return once it ended and continue their lives as usual, without knowing it would last this long, After 5 months of this war, we learned that the house we built just 8 months ago suffered severe damage ‏

So please, if you decide to help, know that I will be immensely grateful and deeply thankful. Every amount, no matter how small or large, is valuable and greatly appreciated, and I will be grateful to you for the rest of my life.

Purpose of Fundraising Campaign I am initiating this fundraising campaign to evacuate my family through the Rafah/Egypt crossing, which currently requires $7000 per person. This is our only chance to survive. I humbly seek your assistance now more than ever.

- Conclusion: Asking for help is not easy, but we are left with no choice. Your support could mean the difference between life and death for my family. We are deeply grateful for any assistance you can provide. Thank you for your kindness and generosity in our time of need
