So, I'm making a video game based on Palestinian folklore. It's called Thursday of the Dead, and you can talk to a Palestinian ghouleh. It will have branching narrative, and art all made by a human (me). I need exactly $100 to launch it on Steam when it's finished.

Lauryn Hill just shared a moving tribute to the late D’Angelo:
People need reflection. I regret not having more time with you. Your undeniable beauty and talent were not of this world, and a presence not of this world needs protection in a world that covets light and the anointing of God. You sir, moved us, stirred us, inspired and even intimidated others to action with your genius. Thank you for being a beacon of light to a generation and beyond who had no remembrance of the legacy that preceded us. Thank you for charting the course and for making space during a time when no similar space really existed. You imaged a unity of strength and sensitivity in Black manhood to a generation that only saw itself as having to be one or the other. It is my earnest prayer that you are in peace, far away from selfishness, fear and/or controlling interests. Far from possessiveness, far from greed, far from manipulation, far from exploitation, far from intentionally designed chaos and that you Brother are in peace, in bliss and in eternal light and fulfillment with our Father in heaven. I Love you and I miss you. May God grant peace and shelter to your family, true friends and genuine appreciators, Brother, King. A photo of Lauryn Hill and D’Angelo, wearing black

Seeing Ms. Rachel say exactly what needs to be said to Obama is so damn refreshing
Dear President Obama, I saw in your statement you said "Israeli families" & "the people of Gaza." Palestinians have families, too. This kind of language contributes to dehumanization. Dehumanization is part of what caused so many to stay silent as 20,000 children were killed in this genocide. I've sat with wonderful Palestinian families from Gaza. They look at their children just like we look at ours - with all the love & hope in the world. Love, Ms Rachel

In light of this, I’m gonna try to fill the gap.

Drop your mutual aid requests under this thread and I will repost them for as long as I can.

During a military-style raid on a building in Chicago’s South Shore, one resident heard a knock on his door. 

It wasn’t the feds —  it was a mom and her 7-year-old daughter, pleading for help.

He let them hide in his unit for the next 3 days.

People who think the idea of "give me ideas" is something genuinely creative people want have literally never experienced the absolute EUPHORIA of a brainstorming breakthrough, either solo or with a human collaborator. They don't understand what is happening when artists create, on a basic level.

David Simon, creator of ‘The Wire’, being interviewed by Ari Shapiro (NPR)
SHAPIRO: OK, so you've spent your career creating television without Al, and I could imagine today you thinking, boy, I wish I had had that tool to solve those thorny problems... SIMON: What? SHAPIRO: ...Or saying... SIMON: You imagine that? SHAPIRO: ...Boy, if that had existed, it would have screwed me over. SIMON: I don't think Al can remotely challenge what writers do at a fundamentally creative level. SHAPIRO: But if you're trying to transition from scene five to scene six, and you're stuck with that transition, you could imagine plugging that portion of the script into an Al and say, give me 10 ideas for how to transition this. SIMON: I'd rather put a gun in my mouth.

Happy Black History Month.
💘🐺🩸

With the new year starting, I wanted to make a thread for newer followers about my Patreon, and how you can support my ongoing comic, DARLIN’ AND HER OTHER NAMES.

www.olivia-stephens.com#/darlin/
www.patreon.com/oliveoilcorp
Cover for Olivia Stephens’ werewolf comic, DARLIN’ AND HER OTHER NAMES, PART 1: MARTA. The limited-color illustration depicts a greyscale foreground filled with tree stumps. The only thing left standing in the desolation is the shape of a woman, her face shrouded in black shadow with two yellow eyes peering out. She wears her long hair around her shoulders, and her dress is covered in red blood. She also wears a large overcoat and a bag strapped around her shoulder. She’s barefoot. Behind the woman are misty hilltops covered in trees. Above the woman’s head reads “DARLIN’ and her other names”. “DARLIN’” is rendered in old-timey western lettering in all caps. The insides of the letters resemble woodgrain. “And her other names” is rendered in loopy cursive. Below the woman’s feet are the volume name and author’s name rendered in the same cursive handwriting: “part 1: Marta”, and “olivia stephens”. Screenshot of available tiers from oliveoilcorp's Patreon: Choose your membership ! (Discount Tier) $1/ month Thank you! Behind-the-scenes look at process work and sketches for Darlin' and other comics in progress. 50% discount on comic PDFs !! (General Tier) $2/ month Thank you!

FREE access to comic PDFs "Director's Commentary": Serialization of Darlin' a page or two at a time, where I'll provide my own reflections, challenges and influences for each specific page/scene. The nitty gritty!
