claim your star

*this is not to shame anybody. if you used to use chatgpt in the past but have stopped, kudos to you, this post still includes you. if you are still using chatgpt, then I guess I can’t stop you — but if you ever decide to stop using it in the future, you may then claim your star too

Children in America who are raised around paternalism and patriarchy don't stand a chance.

CBS should be avoided and boycotted. They bent the knee to fascism. They refused to air a segment that was critical of Trump and exposed blatant illegal and unconstitutional MAGA policies. #CECOT

All as MAGA is dying. Their choice to serve Trump has consequences. Never forget.

Sorry for posting twice, i just, this little hippo is so important to so many people. His caregiverFather Pae is heartbroken(i drew Father Pae petting kaki in my save kaki art). Father Pae has been raising Kaki since he was a baby and is like a father to him. You need to build trust with animals by having a consistent care giver for them. Kaki will have his whole life uprooted to a zoo that will drug him for photo opps in a concrete enclosure.

Pygmy hippos are so precious. I cant let him be moved without a fight. You can hear Father Pae trying not to cry in videos talking about sweet little Kaki. It’s so heatbreaking.

Hello, I drew this art to raise awareness of Kaki the hippo. He lives in a lovely zoo called Ubon no were he has loving caregivers and an environment made to enrich his life. He has mud,trees, water to swim in, lots of space to run and play. His caregivers are heartbroken. Father Pae has been caring for Kaki since he was born and is like a father figure for Kaki.

The zoo they are moving him drugs the animals for photo opps ans his enclosure will be concrete. Concrete will crack a hippos feet and the transit to move him is 12 hours and that is dangerous for a pygmy hippo. Jonah, wo is Moo Deng’s mother, had a brother who died from complications feom an injury he got from transit. We cannot let this happen to Kaki. Please help him by signing the petition! There are only 2,000 pygmy hippos left so every hippo life is precious. We need to care for his emotional and pysical well being. Please help him.

Stop the transfer of Kaki the pygmy hippo

I made the art in the first image to raise awareness of Kaki the pygmy hippo.

Kaki currently lives in a lovely zoo called Ubon where he has loving caregivers and an environment made to enrich his life. He has mud,trees, water to swim in, lots of space to run and play and caregivers to love and play with him. The zoo they are moving him drugs the animals for photo opps ans his enclosure will be concrete. Concrete will crack a hippos feet and the transit to move him is 12 hours and that is dangerous for a pygmy hippo. Jonah, wo is Moo Deng’s mother, had a brother who died from complications feom an injury he got from transit. We cannot let this happen to Kaki. Please help him by signing the petition! There are only 2,000 pygmy hippos left so every hippo life is precious. We need to care for his emotional and pysical well being. Please help him.

Generative AI is made by the theft of billions of pieces of art without permission or pay from artists, many of whom are disabled with art being their only income. Generative AI is destroying water and harming the environment.

If you claim to “need” generative AI to brainstorm then you aren’t a real artist. Why do you “need” a machine to be creative for you? It is lazy. I wouldn’t trust a person who uses AI like that to do good artwork anyway.

Boycott any and all companies that use any form of generative AI.

My entry from Clipstudio’s current contest. The subject was “smile” and I know I smile a lot when I play tabletop games with my friends so I illustrated that.

I officially inform you that we have run out of flour and no food is available. Within two days, the flour may run out completely in the Gaza Strip.

We do not have flour and it is expensive because the occupation prevents its entry.

Donate to save our lives from famine.

mahrahpalestine

I am not exaggerating when I tell you that interacting with us makes us patient, or perhaps it satisfies some of our hunger, even though I do not feel comfortable when I feel that I have sent or written some words that reflect peace of conscience on anyone in the world towards us because I am convinced that no one has done their best to support us as we try to do our best in our patience, But do not hesitate to offer help or donation.✌

yekkes

Please help Marah and boost!

W.I.P to prove im still alive lol

reminders for today:

if you or someone you know might need it in the next few years, purchase plan b. the shelf life of plan b is 4 years, and we might not be able to access it as easily as we can now in the days ahead.

if you are larger/plus size: go online and purchase ella instead of plan b. plan b is less effective if you aren’t under 160 pounds.

if you can, purchase books that project 2025 is looking to ban.

mass deportations are starting. if you see ice vehicles or agents, yell ice raid and la migra as loud as you can.

if someone asks who you voted for, keep your mouth shut. they’re fishing for traitors.

if anyone, anyone at all asks about your neighbors or their legal status in the us, you know nothing. don’t be the reason that their family is separated.

if anyone asks about your religion or lack thereof, keep it vague. this administration will look for any excuse to persecute you.

your friends are trans or queer? for the next four years they’re not. don’t expose anyone’s status as a trans or queer person to anyone else, even if you think you can trust them.

did someone you know get an abortion? no, they didn’t. they were never pregnant.

in short, don’t be a snitch, and keep to yourself these next four years. we’ll make it through this even if it seems hopeless at times.

this is all i can think of at the moment, but i’ll be adding on to this as the day continues.

we can survive this. we’ve survived before, and we’ll survive again.
