Let's look at the Hamas/"Israel" deal

So, the settler "Israeli" government made a deal with Hamas for a temporary ceasefire. It went into effect at 10a today local time, so,

What does it say?

Hamas agreed to release 50 non-military civilian hostages in their custody, in exchange for a 4 day temporary cessation of combat, the release of 150 Palestinians in "Israeli" custody, and the allowance of 200 trucks carrying fuel, food, and aid into Gaza through the Rafah crossing. Additionally, the cessation will extend for 1 day for every additional 10 hostages released by Hamas.

What this deal is not is a ceasefire.

This is a temporary pause in conflict. Netanyahu has said, the fighting will continue after the pause ends. The Occupation forces will not end the conflict, only pause the fighting for 4 days, per the agreement. Bombs will still fall, hospitals and school will still be targeted, children will still die. Gazans have a 4 day break, but they will continue to be butchered in the streets and in their homes by US-made and supplied weapons and war machines.

What can we do?

Do not look away.

Continue to protest, blockade, boycott, call, write, scream, yell. And do not look away. The "Israeli" government agreed to this deal because of US diplomatic pressure. So we must continue pressing them to go further, and to end the genocide of Palestinians, in both Gaza and the occupied West Bank territories.

Keep pushing. Keep watching. Keep fighting. Free Palestine.

If you're having trouble keeping up with what's going on in Palestine because of US news coverage of university protests, here are some articles you can read and a video you can watch:

While CNN & all the other mainstream media try to paint the university protests as "pro terrorism" (which they're not, they're literally anti-war protests.) Palestinians are being slaughtered by the minute.

Please don't stop speaking about Palestine.

Hey so...Can we talk about how cool Halloween is just. Visually. Just look at how cool it all looks

As of now, Florida and Kansas have passed bills that align with KOSA.

So many people have held back on speaking out against KOSA or signing petitions because "it probably won't pass." But we have proof that it very well can and will.

So what can we do right now?

The same thing we've been doing: bring awareness and protest.

Here are a few websites you can visit to sign petitions:

https://www.badinternetbills.com/

https://www.stopkosa.com/

You can also call your state reps. This post explains how you can do that.

Good luck, everyone! Don't give up yet.

Aww, what a lovely smile it has

So, I decided to draw strangled Red tonight, primarily using the Lasso tool, for a relatively quick doodle i'm suprised with out well it turned out. But you can let me know how I did in the comments.

hello brothers and sisters

you’re probably well aware of what kosa is after this point, but if you don’t, it’s a bill that is going to be reviewed by the senate this monday(february 26th, 2024) to see if it’ll pass and move onto the house.

if it passes, queer people and queer topics will be heavily censored online, as well as topics such as Palestine.

don’t panic quite yet though, as there IS still time to help prevent it passing in the senate, and also if it DOES pass in senate, it will have to also pass the house(which is a clusterfuck right now).

you can help stop it passing by emailing/calling your senate AND house representative and telling them WHY you oppose this bill. it’s important you call both of them

if you don’t know who your senate/house representatives are:

senate: https://www.congress.gov/members/find-your-member

house: https://ziplook.house.gov/htbin/findrep_house?ZIP=

if you don’t know what to say, use these two scripts

USE THIS IF YOUR SENATOR/REPRESENTATIVE IS REPUBLICAN:

USE THIS IF YOUR SENATOR/REPRESENTATIVE IS DEMOCRAT:

and finally, make sure not to panic and keep yourself informed. the bill still has to pass house before it can be signed by biden(who really wants the bill to pass, so if you’re calling a republican with your script, maybe include that). this can take weeks or months, or it even can die in house if we are able to make it stall long enough

we also need to make a very big stink about kosa and make it trend wherever we possibly can(tumblr, twitter, tiktok, etc), and make sure people KNOW our hatred for the bill. use the hashtag #stopkosa so it can hopefully trend

i’d heavily encourage you to reblog this so the word can be spread, but know you are NOT a bad person if you don’t reblog it. i too have ocd and understand

good luck men

eSims for Gaza is facing constant eSim shortages.

They get over a thousand requests for connection a day, but their email inbox is regularly sitting at 300-500 eSims. With the bombardment of Rafah and continual internet blackouts, the need for more eSims is particularly urgent.

Even if you have already sent an eSim or donated to an eSim donation drive, there is more you can do. The team is calling for people to campaign in their communities to help spread the word about eSims and encourage donations.

You can help by printing out posters and putting them up in local businesses, on telephone poles and notice boards, or wherever people are likely to see them.

[ID: Poster headed “eSIMs for Gaza” with an illustration of a red poppy, a QR code, and a link to tinyurl.com/gaza-esims; copy reads “Sending eSIMs is an immediate, concrete way to help Gazans on the ground. Scan below to learn how you can get involved.” End ID]
