📍Resolution: HR 6126

What's new(ish) in the settler-colonial state of the US is that a series of bills have been passed in the House (the Baby Senate as I like to say) and are on their way to the Senate that make it harder to voice support for Palestinians while also making sure your direct taxes aid the genocide in Gaza.

These bills affirm the US's stance on the settler-colonial Zionist Entity and the implicit ties that the government has with Israel and really — just goes to show you how Israel is just one big base for American Imperialism.

Anyways, there's still time to call your senate and tell them that you don't want these bills that only further spiral the US into fascism so even if you think it might not do much — it's important that we document our dissent in official sources. And while you're at it — call your congressperson and tell them that if they voted for this you're not voting for them next election. If they voted against the bills, still call your congresspeople and tell them you support their decision to vote against these bills.

Here are the bills:

📍Resolution: HR 6126

Resolution Name: Israel Security Supplemental Appropriations Act Description: Gives $14.3 Billion To Israel From The IRS (Taxes You Pay). Like straight up. Just takes it from an IRS project, which used our tax dollars to begin with, to give to Israel "defense." Link to check summary: https://www.govtrack.us/congress/bills/118/hr6126

📍Resolution: HR 798

Resolution Name: "Condemning the support of Hamas, Hezbollah, and other terrorist organizations at institutions of higher education, which may lead to the creation of a hostile environment for Jewish students, faculty, and staff." Description: Will Penalize Students On American College Campuses For Supporting Palestine. This includes "Free Palestine" Protests as according to Rep Owens who introduced the bill (Click). Link to check who voted: https://www.govtrack.us/congress/votes/118-2023/h578

📍Resolution: HR 3266

Resolution Name: "Tolerance in Palestinian Education Act" Description: They will be examining Palestinian education materials to see if it promotes "hate" or "violence" (aka are they teaching their children to become murderers??). Will inevitably require Revision Of Text Books In Palestinian Schools To Portray The Occupation In A Positive Light. Link to summary: https://www.govtrack.us/congress/bills/118/hr3266

📍Resolution: HR 340

Resolution Name: "The Hamas International Financing Prevent Action" Description: Claims to stop financial support for "terrorist" organizations but considering that Gaza's government is run by Hamas, then this would mean Gaza will receive absolutely no aid and donating to people in Gaza could get you in legal trouble. Link to summary: https://www.govtrack.us/congress/bills/118/hr340

There's a button for most of these bills that allows you to contact your representative directly. Please do take the time to contact them — while many of this isn't especially new to Palestinians, the difference is now that we have a larger power in numbers than we did in the past. Please make sure to advocate for you Palestinian comrades in the US whenever possible! Help us Free Palestine one step at a time!

never want to hear "but hamas!!1" again. palestinians released from israeli prisons recount routine torture, brutality, abuse, deliberate mistreatment & neglect, and murder. a 14 year old child that was released from israeli prison has half of his skull missing. for every "prisoner" israel releases because of the truce they kidnap more. the iof steals organs from murdered palestinians. they withhold the bodies of the dead from their families. they have robbed the very homes of the people they've spent over 50 days bombing.

and hamas? testimonies from israeli hostages have been consistent from the start: they are not harmed, mistreated, or tortured. food and medical attention was provided as their captors were able to provide it (the lack of food is directly a consequence of the blockade on gaza). they are returned from 50+ days of being held hostage - a harrowing, traumatizing ordeal, obviously - but they've returned in good form, flying in the face of (and frankly upstaging) every piece of israeli, american, and western propaganda churned out.

A pen drawing of Dante from the game 8:11. He is holding a flute in a playing position with a tilted head. He has a choppy mid-length haircut similar to Leon's. Instead of his usual surgical mask, he is wearing a tassel-like covering. The rest of the outfit is his camo fish-tailed parka, gloves, beanie, and combat boots. There is a black rectangle behind him and text to the upper left reading "Pied Piper".
A pen drawing of Leon from the game 8:11. He looks uncomfortably off to the right of the frame with a hand behind his neck. There is a small bead of sweat on his face. He is wearing a white headdress with 3 beads hanging off, as well as his usual priest attire. The collar has 3 stripes going down a short distance. He has a sparse beard minus a moustache.
A pen drawing of Dante from the game 8:11 focusing on his face. He is wearing a beanie and a medical mask. His eyes are focused a little above the viewer.
A pen sketch of Accardi from the game 8:11 focusing on his face. He is looking off to the right of the frame with a gentle smile. A section of his fringe covers his right eye. He has slight stubble.
A pen sketch of Vittorino from the game 8:11. He has a content expression with closed eyes and a smile. His hair is in a middle part, with two sections of hair around his nape flaring out in a wing-type manner. He has a sparse beard minus a moustache. There is a small bird sitting on the top of his head with the text "coo. coo." written next to it. He is wearing his priest uniform and white scarf. There is a caption below this image quoting a meme: "unbothered. moisturized. happy. in my lane. focused
 flourishing."
A pen doodle of Ryker and Gabriel from the game 8:11. They are drawn simplistically. Ryker is wearing a newsboy style hat with a cross decoration on the left side, and a black turtleneck. They have a scar running across their nose, and another on their left cheek. Gabriel has short side parted hair. He has a beard that is half shaven on the left side. He is wearing a suit uniform with epaulettes. His tie is on backwards so that the smaller part is on top.

Watching my friend play 8:11 at 4 in the morning is truly an experience. I'm hoping to stylize them more in the future

There is more art but I'll space it out a little

A digital painting of my beetle character. They are floating in front of a dark purple background that gets lighter towards their hand. At the lightest point, they are holding a needle with red thread that is wrapped around their mask legs, starting at their left antenna. Their mask is an orange-yellow with brown wood-like vertical markings. There are three light green eyes: two slitted ones and one smaller one on the forehead. They have some short white hair poking out from their nape, flared out. They are wearing a yellow scarf that wraps around the front, the end is folded in such a way to mimic the ends of insect feet. They have a blue vest that ends in a tailcoat, and a white shirt with blue-trimmed sleeves underneath. Their dark blue pants have a white trim that sprouts into a floral pattern around the bottom hem. Their shoes are a blue-green with a black floral trim.

Here is the fabled beetlesona (well... technically just an oc)(or is it?), this is just concept art because I'm still messing around with the vest and colours. Hope you enjoy them

Yes, it's estimated that only about ~1000 Christian Palestinians are still alive in Gaza. This article was released beginning of November though so the number may be lower.

there is something horrifically grim to it, but illustrations for gaza and palestinians tend to catch more mass attention that actual photos of people. this made me feel incredibly helpless for a long while, seeing both how people would rather look at a neat drawing of red black green and white than look a human in the eyes, and how online platforms would rather push a viral drawing while suppressing those begging for help at the same time.

a way to cope with this feeling has been taking advantage of it to directly guide people to helping palestinians.

if art gets better traction, then there’s an incredible amount of good that can be done by creating art that immediately links to fundraisers. creating art of the many images of those who are asking for help.

within hours of posting my drawing, there has been jumps in the thousands for bashar from gaza’s fundraiser. it’s a small effort in the grand scheme of things. it’s not a fix it. but it’s something good. please take care of each other and do what you can. i think this could help a lot of people if a lot of people did it.

here is bashar. i’ve drawn him, spoken to him, and known him now for a few months. any shares help, any art helps. draw who you see, draw what you see. thanks all

Part two of the art dump

This time we're delving into some OC art as well. The big dragon lady is called Lizzie, she belongs to my friend who doesn't have any socials but if you have any messages for her I'll ferry them through :) . The fellow to the right is an enderman OC I have called Speaker.

A digital doodle of a large bipedal dragon with her arms crossed. She is craning her long neck down and grimacing at a fast food worker who is about 1/3 of her size. She is quoting the meme "He asked for no pickles". To the right is a deer-like humanoid tentatively reaching out, saying "Lizzie, it's okay" but the -y is cut off.

A series of doodles depicting a wingless anthro dragon. In the first, she is sitting in a pose similar to the "draw me like one of your French girls" meme. The second depicts her sitting down with her legs curled up, head resting on her knees. The one below features a more traditional quadrupedal dragon silhouette with wings, it is a side angle. Along the top are doodles labelled "Simple" and "Simpler!" with a minimalistic rendition of the same dragon.
Simplified versions of Lizzie and Speaker. They are drawn at a 3/4 angle, but the eyes are stylized to both be visible at once.
Drawing of a wingless dragon (Lizzie) cradling an egg. She is looking in a defensive way off to the side of the canvas.
A gijinka of Lizzie. She has spiky hair with dyed tips that's combed away from the face. There is a dual nose piercing on her nostrils. She wears a shirt with a simple dragon face on it. The dragon looks similar to her original form.
Gijinkas of Lizzie and Speaker. Lizzie is wearing a top with a sweetheart neckline and a short necklace. Her arms are crossed. Speaker is wearing a simple tunic. He is looking at her with a smile. There are two depictions of zoomed in aspects: a close up of Lizzie's nose piercings, and Speaker's eyeliner.
A parody of the "how hungry" horse meme with Polaroid and UI from the Unethical Spite Archive by mama boy

@anactualdump my friend @stale-cornflakes suggested I tag you, enjoy the meme. They got me to read through a bit of bsq (which I've learned is the abbreviation for before status quo) and at some point I got this idea. The tree is a censor for the horse btw, for our (sadly not Pol's) safety :)

More art under the cut:

A parody of the "why dis ___ look so mad" meme with Vittorino, Juliek, and Accardi from the game 8:11. The text is altered to feature a cross and prayer emote instead of the ninja one.

I apologize for the blurry photo here :(

A pen drawing of Beetle and Ryker from the game 8:11. Ryker is holding goûter (a traditional French snack), this one consists of bread with a piece of chocolate in the middle. They eat with a blissful expression, saying "mmm... finally some good food." There are sparkles around them. Beetle is side-eyeing them.
A very simplified Beetle. He is depicted with round puppy eyes.
Beetle looking away from Ryker, they now have a more neutral expression. They are asking "did you-" but are cut off by Beetle saying "no."
