Do you think since we already have Egyptian Mythology (Golden Cheese), Greek Mythology (probably Eternal Sugar), and other Asian mythologies (Burning Spice, Mystic Flower, etc), that Silent Salt and his kingdom will be based on Norse Mythology?

//HOLY SHIT I DIDNT THINK ABOUT THAT THAT'D BE SO COOL I HOPE IT IS.

I can't say for sure though. I have a feeling it'd be from Europe though, since Silent Salt where's the typical knight clothing seen in medieval Europe.

STOP BEING SELF CONSCIOUS ABOUT YOUR CREATIONS STOP SECOND GUESSING WHAT YOU REALLY WANNA DO STOP DEBATING IT'S WORTH. LET YOUR ART SERVE YOU INSTEAD OF THE OTHER WAY AROUND

There's this really cool thing that a handful of diaspora Palestinians have committed a lot of time and effort to called vetting (maybe you've heard of it?) in which they speak directly with a fundraiser holder face-to-face or over phone/video call to verify all portions of a fundraiser. There are so many posts [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] that talk about the details of this process to verify that a fundraiser organizer, recipient, and the details are correct by verifying legal documents like proof of residence, photo ID, fluency in Palestinian-Dialect Arabic, family tree constructions, etc.

These vetters have been posting about Palestinian/Gaza/Arab culture/Islam/etc. for a really long time, [1] [2] [3] (these are Wayback machine links to the tumblr accounts of 90-ghost, el-shab-hussein, & nabulsi before you start crying "but, you can post backdate on tumblr!") [4] (moayesh's Instagram because his tumblr is fairly new) meaning that they didn't just pop up after Oct 2023 to start posing as a qualified individual. They are real diaspora Palestinians with stories to tell and culture to share.

GFM also has strict requirements for withdrawing money, needing evidence of a bank account from a country they service and a solid way to transfer funds from that bank account to the recipient's bank account. If the funds are withheld from the intended recipient, that can be reported to and resolved by GFM.

If you're too overwhelmed by trying to distinguish between scams and real fundraisers, then whatever. That's your problem, not everyone else's. You don't need to publicly announce to everyone that you're too busy/tired/incompetent/ignorant to properly investigate fundraisers, so everyone else should stop supporting them as well. There are plenty of vetters and scam-busting blogs dedicated to helping people distinguish between real and fake.

Donating to established nonprofit aid organizations is absolutely a good deed and is much more straightforward, but it's not the only way to help. Especially with the repeated aid blockages, sometimes Ghazan families need a more direct flow of money to pay for the ridiculously inflated cost necessities (I recently received a video from Farah wherein she states that a bottle of dish soap cost $50. $50!!!!) as well as save up for evacuation costs once the Egyptian border crossing opens. (Thousands of dollars!)

With a few minor parts removed, here is a copy/pasted text that was originally in a reblog but now in its own post since the original account is gone. Links that didn’t work anymore have been left out. I figured it’d be useful for anyone who needs it.

//Hey! I'm talking a small hiatus because I'm finally getting my top surgery! No asks/posts for about a week or so untill I feel better; but I've queued a bunch of wonderful art of other Pokémon artists on the meantime.

Adoption Sundays are still up, but no guarantee there will be one this week or the next (probably next!)

See ya!!

[weekly-eons]

Out of curiosity, are folks allowed to take inspiration from your eons designs to make characters? It’s totally okay if not, the designs of some of these are beautiful!!

Hi! Thanks for asking! I am glad you like my silly designs ^^ I don't have any problems of people taking inspiration! Just don't copy the design and call it your own.

Let's take for example the Angel themed eons. I am okey with anyone making their own angel eon! What I am not okey with is just copy the design and making small changes.

Just be creative! Of course, you can take design elements or use colours I use, I don't own any concept or colour combo's. Just don't make a carbon copy.

Hey. You. If you're a second language English speaker. You should make more of your ocs your own nationality. They don't all need to have inexplicably English names. They don't all need to somehow conform to American cultural conventions. They should speak your first language also. Holds your shoulders and looks you deeply in the eyes. Okay? Okay.
