"Sailing to Gaza is not heroic.

It is duty - an escalated pledge for direct action on land. [...]

International Law stated that any oppressed people has the right to resist subjugation with any available means, including armed struggle (UN General Assembly 45/130 1990).

Under this framework, I urge us Ewhaians to see the part we play in this globalised system.

Palestinians have done their part; what's left is us, temporarily spared by the capitalist imperialist war machine.

The right to resist should be performed in whole - by the oppressed and those standing in solidarity with them."

got really into drawing themed food at some point. here's something for my favorite ambition

commentary below the cut (spoilers)

the cake is a medovik, a type of honey cake. the reference here should be obvious. this one also has seven layers

flavorwise the honey and sour cream is completemented by blackberry jam, totally not symbolic of the blood of your loved one

the purple shards are edible sugar glass. they represent knifegate and the mirror you repair. there's also edible petals because that's the clue you pursue at the very start of the ambition

the knife is a sky/ravenglass knife but like. normal and for cake. i toned down the color to be closer to rl obsidian

the plate is silver. i couldn't be bothered adding engravings to it. it'd be something floral
