We are proud to announce a campaign that will unite those who want to help.

Pokemon for Palestine is an effort between numerous content creators to fundraise for the Palestine Children's Relief Fund! With a goal of $1,000 USD to fundraise over the next two months!

A graphic with vines, leaves, and olives sits at the top and bottom of the graphic, with the Olive Pokemon Smoliv nestled within the vines.

Text on Screen Reads:
Pokémon for Palestine

What’s going on?

Gaza has been experiencing a genocide at the hands of Israel for many decades, however an escalation on Oct. 7th 2023 put the lives of all Palestinians in danger.
Gaza is about to experience its third winter without sufficient shelter, bringing cold and rainy weather. This also means a harsh winter without medical supplies and aid for the children of Palestine.

When we write or draw porn or erotica, we get banned from having a bank account and our livelihoods get seized even if we give it away for free.

When billionaires steal what we've written or drawn to churn out a slop-approximate of porn, they're allowed to charge for it.

Oh good, ChatGPT is getting "erotica for verified adults" later this year

We made ChatGPT pretty restrictive to make sure we were being careful with mental health issues. We realize this made it less useful/enjoyable to many users who had no mental health problems, but given the seriousness of the issue we wanted to get this right.

Now that we have been able to mitigate the serious mental health issues and have new tools, we are going to be able to safely relax the restrictions in most cases.

In a few weeks, we plan to put out a new version of ChatGPT that allows people to have a personality that behaves more like what people liked about 4o (we hope it will be better!). If you want your ChatGPT to respond in a very human-like way, or use a ton of emoji, or act like a friend, ChatGPT should do it (but only if you want it, not because we are usage-maxxing).

In December, as we roll out age-gating more fully and as part of our “treat adult users like adults” principle, we will allow even more, like erotica for verified adults.

An image of vtuber HoloAnarchy washing a translucent blue water bottle with a bottle brush in front of a sink filled with soapy water. She has red hair partially up in a bun, blue eyes with bags under them and pale skin. She is wearing a shirt reminiscent of The Nightmare Before Christmas. There is text in a typewriter font saying "It's Wash Your Water Bottle Wednesday"

Yes your taxes should support disabled people.

They should support homeless people.

They should support those living in poverty, children and the elderly.

This is literally the purpose of taxes, and I would far rather support those who need it than continue to enrich the elite.

We hit my $2400 reward tier for #PokemonForPalestine where I drop “legally distinct” merch, so here it is: my merchsona!

This computer mouse engaged in 100 rounds of online discourse and 100 scuffed streams, and came to life!

Check out the merch drop here:

Politichu turned into a legally distinct anime character that is absolutely a computer mouse and not a Pichu.

Hello, I’m Dolly/Heather ✨ a disabled BIPOC lesbian artist! I am open for work over on my vgen + via email. Links here: linktr.ee/demifaeri

Fan art of Yunara from League of Legends. She is walking towards and reaching out to a Lantern.

There’s a person in the center of the canvas, they are on their knees, holding their head in their hands. Their hair is obscuring their face. They have sharp objects coming out of their back and small wings that look as if they were torn off. Feather are falling around them.

Art for an art trade. Two Characters sit together atop a blanket having a picnic. The character on the right is feeding the character on the left a strawberry.

Art for a Draw this in your style challenge. The character is a woman sitting atop a giant green present box. She’s in holiday themed clothing. She has an open mouthed smile on her face as she is looking down towards the viewer. The moon is up high; it is the middle of the night.

We’re both disabled (my wife is also trans) and struggling to stay afloat. I work full time and do side gigs, but we’re still behind. We need $400 for energy, water, and our car note. Any help means the world.

My wife and I are really struggling right now. We’re both disabled, and she’s also trans. I work full-time and do side gigs like Uber Eats to try to make ends meet, but my paycheck barely covers rent. Everything else like utilities, the car note, and essentials has been falling behind.

Right now, we’re $400 short for our energy bill, water bill, and car note. I’m doing everything I can to catch up, but every month feels like a fight just to stay afloat. We’ve sold what we can, taken extra shifts, and cut back on everything possible.

We don’t have family or a support system to turn to, so any help truly makes a huge difference. Even the smallest bit helps us survive another day, keep the lights on, and stay on the road so I can keep working.

If you’re able to help, thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Your kindness means more than words can say.

My commission came back and I LOVE IT SO MUCH!

Please check out @chilopodapods.bsky.social for amazing Pokemon portraits or D&D portraits!

The image is art of the vtuber Gun_Paladin (Brie) with the Pokemon Armarouge.

Brie wears a maroon skirt, a black sleeveless mockneck top, gold bracelets, and a pair of goggles atop their head. Their hair is short with white to purple ombre. Brie's arm is extended as if directing an attack for Armarouge.

Armarouge, the Fire Warrior Pokemon, is in the foreground, looking forward and ready to attack. He is red, with gold and black armor. His paldrons are bulky, to move and form a cannon when ready to attack. Armarouge has a fire ponytail coming from the back of his helmet. His irises are red with a a yellow fiery pupil.

Miss Major has passed. One of the best of that generation of trans women of colour who started our fight.

The Transfeminine Review @thetransfemininereview.com · 1d

"You make the best of it all and hope you can help make it a little better for the gurl after you."

- Miss Major, 2023 💔

One of the things I hear with some younger trans people I know is they feel, "I'm gonna get this surgery, and I'm gonna learn that way of speaking, and I'm gonna be done." You're never done. If you're a straight, cisgender person, you're never done. Things are always happening that have the potential to change you. So all I am today is not who I'm gonna be tomorrow, because of the things that happened to me today and later tonight. People forget that. "Oh, after I transition, I'm gonna be through." Well, good luck with that. 'Cause if you're through, then it's time to leave, you know, and I don't wanna go anywhere yet.
I'm in my seventies. Why didn't I stop? Number one is community. My gurls. I've had moments of thinking about stopping, but I didn't. I made sure I would step back, reju- venate myself, and then got back out there, and that's how you make a way. Our stories are not all the same, but the destination is: to get some place where we have some peace and harmony, and we can be at ease with ourselves and the people around us. You make the best of it all and hope you can help make it a little better for the gurl after you.

The entire incident is infuriating and terrifying. She’s a Latina woman who was working a service job. On her way home late at night, with her headphones in, she was detained for an hour by masked federal agents who wouldn’t give her their names.

Maria Greeley, 44, had just finished working a double shift at the Beach Bar on Ohio Street
earlier this month when she said she was surrounded by three federal agents who grabbed her, forced her hands behind her back and zip tied her.
Headphones in, Greeley had been focused on getting home to her two dogs for a walk.
Instead, she said she was detained by masked agents who did not answer when she asked for names. They questioned her for an hour, she said.

NEW: There’s a disaster unfolding in Alaska right now. And no major network is covering it.

The remnants of Typhoon Halong battered western Alaska overnight. Homes, with people in them, have literally been swept into the Bering Strait.

At least 20 are missing. No comment from any federal agency.

“Israeli” ceasefires only ever apply to the other party. They’ll continue to kill whomever they want, whenever they want until they are stopped. They see themselves as occupying an altogether different moral plane than their enemies, like any colonizer.

BREAKING: Three Palestinians were killed after Israeli quadcopter drones opened fire on residents inspecting their homes in the Shujaiyya neighborhood, east of Gaza City.

If you are chronically ill, just remember:

🔸️ You deserve to be clean, fed, and loved.
🔸️ You are doing the best you can when your body is against you.
🔸️ Regardless of what you think, you are worth it.
