It's with a heavy but hopeful heart that I watch Palestinian families fundraiser on here, slowly accumulating the precious little money to go around that they need to survive. However, not everyone is so lucky. A lot of Palestinians that have not had that kind of luck, that did not get early verification, that did not get massive platforms behind them from large bloggers, have approached me in my inbox, asking me kindly to do what I can for them. It kills me that I have so little to give myself, but I've seen this platform collectively raise enough to change someone's life. I've made a list of Palestinian fundraisers that are extremely low on funds, in the hope that drawing attention to people who have not been lucky at all can help turn that luck around. I know most of us can't possibly give enough to get all of these families safe in one go. But please, reblog this list. Pick one or two fundraisers, give what you can, and then keep track of it. Slowly, collectively, we can make a difference in these people's lives. Share and donate as much as you can. https://docs.google.com/document/d/178EGDFKkHlh3y4TMVX82kqgITHsqtoMdNccI2f_94Os/edit?usp=sharing

Top: Nintendo has been proven to use the fan website The Spriters Resource to access sprites from their own games, instead of taking the sprites from their own archives. A sprite in Super Mario Maker (later even reused in Super Mario Maker 2) contains a pixel underneath Mario's mustache with a color that does not actually appear in Super Mario World. However, that exact color appeared in a sheet submitted to that site that was up in 2013-2015, at the time of the game's development.
Since the only way we know Nintendo used fanmade rips of their content was because they forgot to remove the pixel in this instance, it stands to reason that many more instances exist that are unknowable due to Nintendo successfully scrubbing out any traces of the original sheets.
Bottom: for everyone who is interested in sprites or is already a fan or user of The Spriters Resource, you may find it interesting to tune in to a livestream that is currently occurring whereby a new design for the site is being showcased. All feedback from the viewers is appreciated and will be considered for changes and future updates!
