Around when do you think applications are going out for the zine (not rushing, I’m just wondering)

Hi, thank you so much for your interest! and worry not, the other mods and I are getting everything set up before the applications are open. The application itself is pretty much ready, but there were other details we needed to hammer out before much else could happen. Today I started setting up the sideblog for it, which is where I will post the application, and also hold all the vital info one might need before signing up, like timeline etc. I really want it to be well equipped before its live!

I think maybe it’ll be ready in a few days? Hopefully I can get a lot done tomorrow

techincally this song is about a mom leaving her baby. Hoever i think it could work for John Dory or Floyd Thinking about branch

"never love an anchor " by the crane wives

OUGHHH never love an anchor is so good i love the crane wives

this song def fits jd or floyd; my immediate thought goes to jd, esp with my brozone parent oc, tulip- she'd just left, and branch hatches, and suddenly jd is grappling with the fact that he has to be responsible for this literal baby in a way he hadn't been before with the other three 🥺

[killy-deactivated20241228]

I was just talking to Ahmed @90-ghost (alongside Av, who might be reading this, idk if they’d like to be part of this post tho). He has given me permission to write a post about our conversation.

This whole thing has gotten Ahmed to the point where he admits he’s started to hate tumblr after 12 years of being on here. He has over 3k messages in his inbox and can’t handle it right now, his brother and other family members are still in Gaza and he himself doesn’t have the money to help them out. I’ve noticed that donations have slowed among palestinian fundraisers in general, before this whole debacle that a few individuals on this site started. this is anecdotal, but I know Ahmed gets like $30-$50 per week in donations at this point, and that barely makes a dent in his and his family’s needs. Remember that people in Gaza need to pay massively inflated prices for what basic necessities are available right now. I think things are looking pretty dire to the people who would like to flee Gaza but don’t have the money. It already was dire that Egyptian government, working in lockstep with Israel and the west, charges $5k+ to Ghazzawis. Hala Agency, Ibrahim Al-Argani, and the other scumbags running the Egyptian state are all demons and they’ve lined their pockets throughout this genocide. But I digress—it was dire already and now the enthusiastic aid that helped people like Ahmed seems to have run dry.

All that is to say: Ahmed can’t continue to verify peoples’ documents or promote their fundraisers at this stage. He’s privately talked to hundreds of Ghazzawis and looked at their IDs, and he was the only person doing it for a while (a very small handful of other Palestinian users on here were doing it, but they’ve also gotten overwhelmed and stopped). When he was in Gaza, Ahmed was displaced multiple times, left sleeping in tents or on the streets while in active physical danger, starving, forced to drink unsafe water, and often sick. It’s not an exaggeration to say that his body and mind have been pushed to the limit. When he told me he’s depressed all day after doing this work while attracting a ton of negativity, I told him he’s allowed to stop for the sake of his own health, because frankly he needs to focus on his physical recovery. There’s nothing selfish about that, it’s not sustainable for him to be doing this, particularly not when he’s still under the immense stress of his brother and other relatives remaining in Gaza and relying on him for help.

Since I know people will ask: I currently don’t know of anyone on tumblr who still vets fundraisers. Everyone I know of who did has had to stop. I don’t know about the inner workings of Operation Olive Branch, but they seem to be one of a few collectives with enough members to distribute this work. It IS work, and those of us who have tried to do it have done so with a low failure rate (el-shab-hussein and nabulsi’s spreadsheet had over 200 entries and they misidentified a scam as legitimate ONCE). I hope everyone will be more considerate towards the people at collectives like OOB.

This has always been a matter of personal discretion. The vetting process some users tried to implement on here is meant to help people who want to help and accept the risk of offering aid to strangers. If you don’t trust bloggers who’ve been proudly Palestinian on this site for years, that’s up to you—genuinely, it’s fair to think “I don’t know this person and I don’t know what standards they’re operating on.” In the future, anyone who has such concerns should consider asking good-faith questions to the people involved and to converse with them like adults before jumping to accusations, conspiratorial posts, etc.

[aces-and-angels]

there are resources beyond those on tumblr for people to find campaigns to contribute to-- here's a list of several grassroot orgs i've come across. i'm sure there's more out there. what y'all do with this information is up to you

el-shab-hussein + nabulsi's google sheet

operation olive branch

about us: Operation Olive Branch is a volunteer-powered grassroots collective committed to the collective liberation of ALL peoples. We connect with and amplify families and mutuals and orgs in an effort to support their critical needs, which include but are not limited to their mutual aid requests. This global solidarity initiative is steered by a diverse core council of advocates from occupied Turtle Island which include Palestinian activists, the Jewish grandchild of a holocaust survivor, and everyone else in between.

gazafunds

about us: Gaza Funds is a project that connects people to crowdfunding campaigns for individuals and families from Gaza. We are a global team of (mostly) Arab and Palestinian engineers, students, writers, and academics working to help get exposure and traction to fundraisers created for people in Gaza, Palestine. We are not an organization or a charity. We do not create fundraisers and we do not collect money on behalf of them. Our work on this project is completely voluntary. We created this site as a way to give others quick access to these fundraisers for informational purposes only.

operation poppy flower (now also linked in oob's sheet)

mission statement: Our goal is to fulfill as many fundraising campaign goals as possible through crowdfunding. Please do not underestimate the power of crowdfunding: small amounts of money donated by large amounts of people. Collectively, we can all play a SIGNIFICANT role in securing the safety of our beloved brothers and sisters in Gaza.

operation watermelon

about me: Hello there! I'm the person behind Operation Watermelon. My family hails from Rameh and Nazareth, and like many Palestinians, we're spread out across the globe. Born and raised in the United States by my migrant parents, I've always felt a strong connection to my roots and a need to contribute to the cause back home.Combining my skills in 3D printing, design, and e-commerce seemed like the right way to make a difference. So, here we are. Operation Watermelon is my way of merging my passion with purpose, creating items that not only tell a story but also contribute to a cause close to my heart.It's about doing what we can, with what we have, wherever we are in the world. Thanks for being part of this journey.

Clay Headcanons

Part 2 ~

💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚

While he didn’t like the title of the “Fun Boy”. Clay was a genuinely funny person, he would say the most random things at the most random times.

Clay: if you step on someone’s foot they open up their mouths, just like trash cans

Clay: I hate it when older people say “you’re too young to be tired” like okay John Dory you’re too old to be alive but here we are!

Clay: What a fucking year this week has been

(You get my point)

He would often prank his brothers though, which didn't help his "fun boy" case, but it was his way of retaliating and getting revenge. He also got in less trouble if he pranked someone rather than if he just screamed at someone, plus yelling only encourages siblings to torment you more, pranking scares them off a bit.

He would bring out the “Fun Boy” routine to cheer up his younger brothers when they were upset. He’d occasionally do it for Bruce if he really needed it, but he wouldn’t do it for JD. After the Great Escape, he’d do it to cheer up Viva.

He loved math in school and he was known as the “nerd” before he was famously known as the “Fun Boy”

When he was especially young when Floyd was born, he was sooooooo jealous of all the attention Floyd was getting, he was convinced that Floyd came to steal his family from him. Over time he learnt to love Floyd and eventually Branch, but the jealousy never entirely left the back of his mind.

Clay choreographed all of the Brozone dances. He actually enjoyed creating them, he got to be in charge of what his brothers had to do and it gave him a sense of responsibility.

Even though he fought a lot with his brothers and even though he was mad at them most of the time, Clay still loved them and would do anything for them. Branch and Floyd want him to play a game with them? Sure! They need to experience a proper childhood, of course, he'd play with them! Bruce is having a midnight snack in the kitchen? Clay is there too and they are having the best conversations! JD needs a little help catching up with his schoolwork because he's had to miss so many days? Clay would help explain what he had to miss. Someone insulted his brothers? Clay would stand up for them.

💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚

Less angsty today

I'm trying to really understand Clay as a character (in my opinion), I'm trying to piece together why I personally think he acts certain ways, I guess?

Anyway, I love my boy Clay 🫶
