FREE PALESTINE / END THE GENOCIDE ON GAZA

FREE PALESTINE / END THE GENOCIDE ON GAZA

This piece was made to show support for Palestinians. This mountain gazelle was created with the colors of the flag and the meaningful patterning of the keffiyeh. 

Remember that you are not helpless and you are not useless during this time. Especially as a white American or white British citizen right now, you hold a significant amount of power. If you back down and cave in to this helplessness and uselessness that you feel, then these politicians who allow the genocide of Palestine have won.

Even keeping a steady flow of posts talking about Palestine is enough. Do not quiet down. Do not fail the people of Palestine more than they already have been.

From the river to sea, Palestine will be free. 🇵🇸❤️

can't count on one hand how many times ive cried this week because of everything that is happening in armenia. im so happy seeing people on tumblr talking about it.

turks and azeris buy the weapons they use to kill us FROM ISRAEL. if you are for "free palestine" you should be for "free armenia" and "free artsakh" as well. there is no supporting one and not the other.

there is no. supporting one. and not the other.

free hayastan, ազատ Հայաստան.

Only Zionists would celebrate the genocide of over 8000 Palestinians, calling it a win, then turn around and call Palestinians "barbaric"

Only Zionists would kill a Palestinian child every 10 minutes in Gaza, then turn around and call Palestinians "baby killers"

Only Zionists would bomb 12 hospitals in three weeks, then turn around and call the patients inside these hospitals "war criminals"

Only Zionist rabbis would give the green light to bomb more hospitals under Jewish law, then turn around and call Palestinians "religious fanatics"

Only Zionists would use weapons that violate international law on residential areas, then turn around and call the residents of these areas "terrorists"

More of my defiance Leo, she’s a cutie pie💙

These are some concept sketches of her, thought I’d share them so I could also talk a bit about her character!

For Leo I took most of my inspo from 2012, especially from the head canon that 2012 Leo is transfem, which is why my Leo uses mainly she/they

I really wanted her to have grandma vibes, partly cause I think that’s funny, and also because I wanted to lean into her being soft and not very confident. She still is the leader, but she doesn’t really control her siblings

Also, she is tiny!!! She’s the shortest of her siblings but the oldest (or second oldest, I can’t decide whether it’s gonna be her or Raph who’s oldest), though I’m not really sure how old she is yet

She likes reading, knitting, tea, probably baking, she literally is just a grandma

She’s closest with Mikey, he looks up to her a lot, the beads around her waist were made by him. In her final design, I’m going to add more to symbolize how close their relationship is. Leo looks up to Raph, she’s the one Leo goes to if she needs advice, and to show this Leo is wearing fishnets on one arm and the hoops in her mask came from Raph. Her and Donnie, who I haven’t shown yet but hopefully will soon, have a very strained relationship. The heart pin on her scarf is for Donnie and she wears one of Donnie’s old masks on her arm.

I’m gonna be sharing so much of these guys now, as well as my other iterations, hope you like them :)

idk i just keep thinking about how like. seven thousand people were murdered. if seven thousand people were murdered in america there would be massive outpourings of public grief but because the people murdered were far away and belonged to a country the us doesnt support theyre just statistics and numbers to like everyone around me and theyre just going about their days. i have literally never heard seen this level mass murder on a short condensed time scale like this in my lifetime and no one is reacting. i feel like im going insane
