Thanks to art fight I finally finished my lmk/jttw oc :3 meet Chūntào! Lore down here 》》
Chūntào (or just tào) is one of the 7 fairies/peach attendants from actual myth! Her and their sisters were created from different parts of the first peach tree of immortality
After Wukong was appointed guardian of the orchard the two became close friends- until he did All That and was trapped under the mountain. Tào waited the 500 years and once she learned he was freed, used the blossom she was made from to create a recreation perfect enough to fool heaven. Once done they ran away to join the journey to the west (haha see I said the title)
I'm not altogether knowledgeable on how to bea mod but I want to help in some way. Is there anything I can do?
Hello! First off, thank you so much for your interest and for reaching out to us! Both our mod and contributor applications are currently closed, but there are still other ways you can help, both with this charity and with the situation in general!
The first is by submitting fanart and fic requests (once those forms are open) here with us (@twst-charity) by sending a screenshot/receipt of a donation made to one of three charities (Palestine Children’s Relief Fund, Medical Aid for Palestine, or Anera).
A very quick, easy, and free way to help is also by visiting this site and clicking the big, red, help button. If you’ve ever wanted to hit a big red button, now is the time to do so. This generates a donation to UNRWA to help Palestine.
Please help deliver support to Palestinian families; all you have to do is to click once a day for free, every day!
Unfortunately, as many have heard by now, even these charities have been struggling to deliver resources to the people of Palestine due to blockades and frozen accounts, etc. Anera seems to continue to be successful in still getting resources where they are most needed, but the situation is constantly changing. We will be continuing to help raise donations in hopes that, as soon as there is an opportunity to do so, those charities will have the means and funds to make a difference.
However! There are still other ways to help Palestine and show your support. The first – and most important - is spreading awareness. Learn what is going on now and has been for the past 75 years. Be aware of propaganda and misinformation, whether purposeful or accidental. Archive tweets and posts and videos so that they cannot be scrubbed from the internet by those hoping to erase evidence of the genocide in Gaza. The importance of spreading the truth cannot be underestimated, especially with Netanyahu and the IOF increasing propaganda. Popular tags to do this include: #CeaseFireInGaza #CeasefireNOW and #FreePalestine!
Signing petitions and contacting representatives is also a good way to show your stance. Unfortunately, this does have some risk, due to organizations like c4n4ry mlssl@n (censored for safety) doxxing people who support Palestine.
Boycotting is another method that has been showing signs of success! The boycotting effort is being directed by the Palestinian BDS National Committee (BNC), which is the Palestinian leaderships of the global Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) Movement. Frankly, far too many brands and celebrities have shown support for Palestine for the average person to avoid all of them. So, a certain few have been picked to have the most impact.
Boycott: Starbucks, McDonalds, Disney+ (which means no TWST microtransactions, y’all!), Domino’s Pizza, Papa John’s, Pizza Hut, Burger King, AXA, Puma, Carrefour, hp, Siemens, Ahava, sodastream, and Israeli businesses. (Note from Mod Ryuu: This does NOT mean a general boycott on all Jewish businesses! Don’t be that person. You’re not helping.)
If you want to proudly show your support of Palestine IRL – and are safe to do so – a popular method is by wearing a Kaffiyeh, the iconic scarf of Palestine. You can order an authentic Kaffiyeh from Hirbawi at kufiya.org or from Kufiyas Australia at kufiyas.org.au If you’re not in a position where that’s possible, there are two other popular methods. The first is simply by wearing the colors of Palestine: Red, Green, White, and Black. The second ties into those colors and the history of colonialism in Palestine, where once it was illegal to fly the Palestine flag. Instead, people used the watermelon as a symbol to represent the flag. If you need a subtle means of showing support, the watermelon is the way to go.

Other threads (largely from the bird app) with information on how to help and what is happening:
THINGS NOT TO DO:
-Break the boycott, including doing things like ordering a bunch of food and then ditching without paying. You are only making life harder for the minimum wage employees doing their best, not the billionaires behind them.
-Do not spam the tags with posts not related to Palestine, etc. Keep your fandoms in their fandom spaces and so on. Unless, of course, you are doing a charity drive or something similar through your fandom.
-Be antisemitic. DO NOT harass or accuse Jewish people of being responsible for this genocide. Jewish people across the world have been protesting in defense of the Palestinian people even before this latest war began. More than 2/3 of people in Israel disagree with Netanyahu and the IOF based on recent polling.
Thank you so much to everyone who has waited for this event to officially begin, and hello to all newcomers! To support Palestine, her refugees, and those who support Palestinian freedom and oppose genocide, we are hosting a fundraiser - donations to certain pro-Palestine charities in exchange for Twisted Wonderland fics and fanart!
If you would like to donate and receive a commission of your choosing, please check out our donation form! Commissions do scale with donation size, so if you can donate a larger sum, you will receive more! However, if you donate a million $1 donations to try and receive a million fics, you will be limited in how many you receive.
Additionally, the list of charities will occasionally be updated as the situation changes.
Please, reblog and share as much as you can, and continue speaking out for the freedom and peace of Palestine.
From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free!

Pretend it hasn't been like 6 months since I've posted here <3 also! Look under here for more specific hcs :] I considered doing these for other lmk characters one like and I'll do it (eventually) 😎
Wukong
-His eyes were gold when he was born, but after his time in the heavenly brazer they stayed red (this is jttw canon but isn't included in lmk 😔)
- I draw his eyebrows way shorter and w the same curl shape as his tightening headband- plus more spread out white patches from lbd
- The teal liner is purely for fun, it matches his outfit but! The smokey eye look is actually a little reference to the monkey king reborn movie, it's my fav part of that design
Macaque
- His eyes are a lot more narrow and sharp than Wukong's! The "liner" is purple the aesthetic is important to him ✋️
- The biggest part is definitely the scar I cannot TELL u how long that took me,,,the scar goes up into his hairline and warps the skin past the deepest points of trauma
- He didn't lose the eye entirely but the surface was likely ripped/damaged beyond the point of return so I do hc he's completely blind out of that side (minus perception of light/shadow)
Hi there!!)))I really like your work and I would like to ask you for something. I do not know if you will like this request, but I would really like to see Nezha in your version. But only he will be in ordinary human clothes. Thank you if you do, if not, then it's okay)
