Only on the darkest arctic nights can you encounter this Primordial Pokémon. It manifests as aurora and ice, gently towering over the pole's frigid denizens... ✨❄️🧊 (There are 12 kinds of Pokémon in this #art! Can you find 'em all? Some are well hidden... Have fun, open your mind, & don't give away answers! 💕) Image on Bluesky~

THIS JUST HAPPENED

(around 7.25pm, Nov 23, Palestine time) *the first tweet is referring to the original date set for ceasefire which was then changed to friday 7am

please please PLEASE do not stop speaking just because of a temporary ceasefire. please. some of you will have holidays but please take a few minutes out of your day to voice out. and if you can, perhaps do not celebrate and instead protest and keep emailing reps and posting about a complete ceasefire. please.

while some of us will be breathing a sigh of relief over the temporary ceasefire, people will STILL be dying. people ARE still dying. up until the very last minute. they’ve intensified their attacked. there is no “pause” for them.

please. your festivals come every year but these people… these children… once they’re gone, they’re gone. there will be no next year for them.

please keep speaking up. we’re not done yet. please.

HERE’S HOW YOU CAN HELP

m’not sure about donations still because the ceasefire doesn’t mean money will get to gaza right away BUT!!! care for gaza, the e-sims, hirbawi, and palaction are all donations you can make even with a blockade.

other than that, please sign all the petitions, join the campaigns and contact your reps using the various options provided. AND PLEASE remember to boycott companies listed by BDS

Again, watching politicians pretend like this isn’t genocide is horrifying.

Do not stop talking about what is happening in Palestine.
