On November 7, 2024, Denmark used a racist, culturally biased "parenting competency" test to remove a 2 hour old baby, Zammi, from her loving indigenous Greenlandic Inuit mother, Keira, because her native language, which uses minute facial expressions to communicate, will not be able to "[prepare] the child for the social expectations and codes that are necessary to navigate in Danish society." This test had been recommended not to be used at the federal level before this happened but certain municipalities, including the one this happened in, chose to continue to use it regardless. Not only is this blatantly racist but also violates multiple declarations and conventions that Denmark has signed that protect the rights of indigenous people.

Please sign this petition to help Keira to get her baby back.

Hey, it's really important for Keira to get 50,000 signatures on this petition before her court date in early April 2025. Please sign if you haven't already to help a mother and a people stand up to colonialism and for indigenous rights.

Hi, if you don't mind my asking, when did you get into making collages and how? I recently realized I know nothing about that artform and I can read up on it, sure, and I have, but I'd also like to hear from someone who's actively making collages soooo I'm bothering strangers on the internet, in this case, you

No I LOVE this question!!!! I started collecting magazines in high school as reference photos but never really did anything with them. In college i started collaging my sketchbook covers.

I saw a TikTok about someone who made their sketchbooks as wide as possible by glueing random shit in it and I've been doing that ever since!! As far as big collages go that's been much more recent. I love how fast making a collage goes and how much it feels like playing. Having hot glue, stickers, and gems makes it so fun.

Ummm I could ramble more but if you have specific questions about collaging send them my way!!

Oooh fun! Thanks for the tag <3

absolutely no pressure tagging @everywaythatmatters @sterlingterror @treezenith @parlerenfleurs @janeways-coffees @talysalankil @lostandbackagain and anyone else who wants to join in 🩷

See the thing is when I'm off work I do exclusively dress like a cartoon character by wearing a variation on the theme of "open button up over a tank top". So I'm feeling a little called out.

No pressure tags @alyssumlovesthecosmere @mellowthorn and anyone else who wants to! Thanks for the tag!

Thank you for the tag! (and @treezenith and @spectrum-color as well!) i don't think i've ever done a picrew tag before so this was fun!

TIME SENSITIVE: buying chicken for the children of gaza

hello everyone! thank you all for your generous support in our previous campaigns. we've been able to support the refugee camp through some truly trying times on top of the ongoing genocide - through extreme food prices and scarcity, through the winter chill, and even through losing their tents. our team on the ground has been extremely grateful for your continued support. it means the world to all of us that people have sent donations and left kind messages of support on all our campaigns.

we now call on you all to help us with a new task: feeding the kids a meal of chicken, which has reentered gaza for the first time in months! and, better yet, the price has gone down since the declaration of the ceasefire from $30 to $15!

each chicken can feed ~4 people. that means with a donation of less than $20, you can feed 4 currently displaced people in gaza!

i'm marking this as time sensitive since we are unsure how long supplies will last. it would be amazing if we were able to close this campaign by january 25th. to do this, i am pledging $100 to help us reach our goal.

we have a set goal of $1600, and anything beyond that would go to acquiring more food for the refugee camp.

the easiest way to donate is through our link, which will redirect you to our paypal page:

(alternatively, you can use paypal.me/qquwq or via simk’s P/P email: kuuhaiyu@gmail.com.)

how it works:

per ahmed’s request, simk and i are collecting money on his behalf. we will be using the same method to transfer money to him as we have been using to transfer to support to shimaa. the money that is collected will be sent via wire transfer to ahmed, and it takes 3-5 days to arrive.

once the money arrives, ahmed will take videos and photos to document the process of buying and cooking food for everyone. i will share selected videos and photos on my blog so that you all can see what we can do with our collective efforts!

a small note here: to preserve the privacy and dignity of the displaced, and to avoid issues with the tumblr staff, i will be careful with what i choose to show publicly. ahmed will also refrain from publishing his own photos on social media for this same reason. if you have any other specific requests you would like to see as proof of your donation going to good use, please DM me.

please help us reach our goal! below you'll find a continuously-updated tally of our totals. let's get this campaign to the finish line!

$784 / $1600 | 49% | $816 remaining!!
