Debunking misinformation around Palestine.

Please spread this truth!

[teardew]

some beginner resources on learning about the israel occupation & supporting palestine

decolonizepalestine is a website run by two palestinians living in ramallah dedicated to debunking myths about the israeli occupation & the palestinian struggle against settler colonialism

visualizing palestine 101 is a data-led resource of infographics and audiovisuals for learning about the history and ongoing israeli colonial occupation of palestine

zionism from the standpoint of its victims an article by edward said, a palestinian-american professor widely known as the author of orientalism, one of the most influential scholarly books of the 20th century

israel and palestine: roots of conflict a lecture by norman finkelstein, a jewish-american political scientist who specializes in israel-palestine and the holocaust

bds movement is the official palestinian led movement calling to boycott, divest, and sanction israel with nonviolent financial pressure (not to be confused with bds guide: a zionist parody site and others like it)

i hope these are helpful ! i tried to list the most comprehensive and introductory resources for people who learn things better visually or by auditory respectively, or need both (like me)

please take the time to go through these resources and/or spread them to help with the palestinian struggle against media erasure and modern day colonialism

Hey btw if you don’t know how to program, you should check out [novelty], which is a free Visual Novel creation software. Absolutely no programming required, and it’s super easy to use, I played with it some when I was a teen but the only reason I didn’t do much with it is cuz I made my story complicated and had like 5000 different branching routes that kept spawning new routes and made myself confused LMAO

But yeah, it’s a WYSIWYG with a really straight-forward GUI, if I remember correctly.

It even comes with some free backgrounds and characters and stuff, and this is what it looks like:

Did I mention it’s super duper free? It hasn’t been updated since 2010, but it has basically all you’d need to make a simple visual novel.

Just make sure your DirectX runtime is updated, cuz it can act buggy if it’s outdated, but this program is so old that I doubt it’d even be an issue lol

holy shit

[becausedragonage]

This is so cool? Can you imagine fanfic in this format?

[scripturient-manipulator]

YO

[shoothisisanemptyblog-deactivat]

@becausedragonage @ashidoodle can I recommend Choice Script? It’s like a choose your own adventure coding program. The finished product looks like this, where every option sends you down a different path:

They are literally books you can play. You can even insert your own character’s name and pronouns and that would make writing reader inserts so much easier And as a writer who can not art, writing and making dating sims and games is more convenient.

The coding is also super simple and easy to learn and all it requires other than the program files is a text editor. And just like that you can start typing up like you would your own fanfics or stories. Plus it’s very versatile so you can make your game/book as simple or as complicated as you want, and even implement stats and inventory systems.

AND CHOICE SCRIPT IS ALSO SUPER DUPER FREE. THE COMPANY EVEN PUBLISHES YOUR FINISHED GAME FOR YOU AND GIVES YOU ROYALTIES IF YOU CHOOSE TO SELL IT. THE PROGRAM STILL GETS UPDATED AND  THE COMPANY PUBLISHES BOOKS EVERY MONTH INCLUDING THE FANMADE ONES. THERE’S ALSO A FORUM FOR PEOPLE TO POST WIPS AND TALK ABOUT CHOICE SCRIPT AND GET HELP.

[thewritinghole]

For any burgeoning digital storytellers/narrative game devs out there! :)

[clotworthyskeffington]

Also twine/twine2 if you’re feeling up to a bit of coding and adding extra mechanics to a text based game. How to Kill a Vampire at a McDonald’s is a great example of a game using that engine.

Used to be a platform for hosting twine games via Twitter but I think it shut down a year or two back…

Trans Fashion tips

These are actually non basic clothing tips that can definitely help you

[breadbank-deactivated20240125]

CC:

[So, when you want to put together outfits that feel more androgynous, it’s important to consider not just what you’re wearing, but how you’re wearing it. Depending on the way you place pieces of clothing on your body will determine whether they’re masculinizing or feminizing and how that works with the rest of you.

A hat worn against the back of your head is far more feminizing because it frames and circles your face, where as a hat worn across the brow jars your features more, thus making you feel more masculine. 

A shirt that is not tucked into your pants may give you a more feminine shape because it softens your silhouette, where as one that is, sharpens it. 

It’s also important to consider that large glasses will feminize your face, whereas small glasses will masculinize it.

When piecing these things together it can really make a difference about how your outfit is read

But keep in mind that your appearance has nothing to do with your gender identity, these are just some tips]

Eco Lifestyle Timber Flooring Expanded - 6 New or Edited Flooring Options

Highly requested (and something I missed which I usually do after a pack release) was recolouring the Eco Lifestyle flooring. I didn’t do just that, I thought it was a missed opportunity not having the Upcycled timber walls as a flooring too, so I made it so in both original colour, and my recoloured version. I also took the hexagon timber and made a smaller version which I think will be great for smaller rooms like bathrooms. These are also in the original colour options plus the regular and small in my recolours. There is no such thing as too many flooring options.

FOR THE CULTURE.

[soolagna-meow]

I put this worksheet together a bit back when I had the privilege of teaching some cool young people. Everyone has their own unique way of learning facial anatomy, but for me I found that the Reilly abstraction and those rhythm lines crystallized everything for me! If you’re having difficulty understanding this stuff, I hope this helps out.

Awesome reference! I often link Loomis method so this is a cool, different perspective!
