Is it just me or does the Queen of Hearts look like @miriamanzovin.bsky.social

It's on its way to me!

עוֹשֶׂה שָׁלוֹם בִּמְרוֹמָיו הוּא יַעֲשֶׂה שָׁלוֹם עָלֵינוּ
וְעַל כָּל יִשְׂרָאֵל

May the one who creates peace on high bring peace to us and to all Israel.

The Hostage and Missing Families Forum has been supporting individuals and families since the beginning of this war and has been relentless in their goal to bring the hostages home. 19 individuals' bodies remain in Gaza. The work has not stopped. stories.bringthemhomenow.net

ERAN is an Emotional First Aid hotline that was founded in 1971. We have lost too many survivors to mental health crises since October 7th. en.eran.org.il/donate-online/

NATAL Israel Trauma and Resiliency Center has been around since 1998 and has lots of resources for survivors as well as caregivers and advocates, as well as actively helping those affected by war and terrorism: www.afnatal.org/programs

The Jewish Agency for Israel has a Fund for Victims of Terror that helps victims and families through the recovery process: www.jewishagency.org/fund-for-vic...

Lastly - Be civil and nice in the comments, should feel the need to leave one. This call to action does not negate or diminish any of the other suffering happening around the world, in Yemen, Lebanon, Syria, or anywhere else.

If you can't give directly, please share this thread - but more importantly, talk to your people. It's so easy to forget the victims of a tragedy once the media cycle has deemed it "resolved" and moved on, while the reality is that these individuals and their families need our continual support.

We all breathed a giant sigh of relief earlier this week, but I encourage you to support ongoing recovery of the hostages. They have long roads ahead, whether they came home two years ago or five days ago. There are medical concerns and psychological trauma that need to be addressed.

So anyway if you're out here on the internet staring at all this YouTube videos claiming they have the secret to "finishing" a sketchbook, you have my permission to ignore that BS.

Sketchbooks are tools.

I wonder if this is an evolution of peers in MS/HS walking up to you while you draw and asking to see your sketchbook, as if it were your perfectly polished portfolio. I tore more pages out of sketchbooks as a kid because I didn't want my peers to see my mistakes. Thankfully I grew out of that.

Aww look at his little worm feeties
