Hello. My name is Joseph (she/him), and this is my introduction to the Tumblr art and writing community. Long time listener, first time caller, as they say.

I enjoy writing science fiction, with an emphasis on individuals living in dystopian societies. My favorite parts of writing are developing themes and exploring character relationships. On this blog, I hope to find new stories to become interested in and a community to help me grow as a writer. 

Feel free to interact with me, especially if you are a fellow disabled or nonwhite writer— I'd love to contribute to the community.

people are really fucking clueless about generative ai huh? you should absolutely not be using it for any sort of fact checking no matter how convenient. it does not operate in a way that guarantees factual information. its goal is not to deliver you the truth but deliver something coherent based on a given data set which may or may not include factual information. both the idolization of ai and fearmongering of it seem lost on what it is actually capable of doing

‼️🚨EMERGENCY UPDATE🚨‼️

🍉🍉Please do not ignore🍉🍉

After a long struggle during the war, my father's condition deteriorated rapidly and madly (a broken pelvis, blocked arteries, high blood pressure, and ulcers in his diabetic foot).

Thank God, we have arrived in the Arab Republic of Egypt to receive treatment. He is now lying in intensive care and his condition is critical.

I left my wife and children in Gaza, who are in dire need of me. The situation there is very catastrophic and the war could return at any moment.

My daughter needs weekly treatment that costs more than 500 euros.

We are here today in Egypt. I do not have anything to move around with. I hope that whoever sees this post will donate and share it widely, as I am in dire need.

(I need bread and a drink of water to live)

- This is the reality of the children of Gaza, and even the reality of my children!!

- I need you in a real and urgent way, we are people like you, your donation saves many lives

Appreciation post for all the beginner artists who work hard despite the AI ​​looming over us. You are fabulous. You are precious. Keep up the hard work, you are needed.

DRAW THOSE STICK FIGURES!!!

DO THOSE SHAPES!!!

NO MATTER THE SKILL LEVEL YOU STILL HAVE MORE DEDICATION TO THE CRAFT THAN AI BROS!!!

I've been told that Dina and Ahmed will be away for a while due to internet outages happening in northern Gaza. They have currently met 89% of their goal (€88,814/€100K as of 2/8/25), so please keep the family in your hearts and donate what you can when you can. They are very close and I'm sure it would mean so much to them to come back and see the continued support and boosting of their campaign ❤️.

too much monogamy in fandom in general

as we all know, everyone falls in love once and only once with their one true love the first time, and if they had relationships before that they weren’t real and didn’t love each other, and you can’t love more than one person at once, and your friends and family need to be pushed out of the picture to focus more on your romance, and no one has sex with people they don’t love, and if they did, they’re dirty and they have to have hated it and the sex they have with their one true love after they’re officially together has to be better sex than they ever had before, and no one ever breaks up for any reason other than death, and everyone wants to get married and have kids. aren’t you fucking tired.

I SAID AREN’T YOU FUCKING TIRED

Kinda sick and tired of black characters and other characters of color being made to look like white people with a skin tint. Give POC dark eyes!!!! Give them ethnic features!!!! Give them dark hair!!!!! GIVE THEM HAIR TEXTURE!!!!!! I promise you it's not that scary

i think a lot of it also boils down to yall being uncomfortable with how african americans talk, there’s no need to code switch in rap bc its for us by us about us, a lotttt of you have biases agaisnt black ppl who use aave / ebonics, and a common theme in seeing with the tags talking at me under my playlist addition are “being scared” about how rap sounds, a lot of u are like . baseline afraid of black people just existing, u should probably think about why hearing black people speak aave makes u uncomfortable / assume aggression / anger bc for all the excuses im seeing its just boiling down to the same thing, fear of blackness

If this story made you laugh, please don’t skip this message. We live in northern Gaza and we need help. Despite the ceasefire, things keep getting worse here. We are still hungry, cold and sick. We are paying hundreds of dollars to see doctors and get treatment because of how rough the war was on our bodies. We might lose our shelter soon because the landlord keeps increasing the rent.

In the midst of this, my sister Soso, who is only four years old, deserves to be a normal child. She wants to learn but she never got to start school. A few days ago, we brought her to kindergarten, but she spent the entire day crying and now the principal doesn’t want her back. What is this injustice? Children cry on their first day! Soso is a child with a bad life, she’s hungry and cold, she went through severe famine and bombings and witnessed massacres, how can she not cry?

Please help me make our lives better, more stable, so that Soso will feel safe enough to leave our side for a few hours. She longs for an education but she is traumatized.

Thank you for your time. Stay safe ❤️‍🩹

If I see another transmasc character portrayed as a feminine girly twink, ESPECIALLY in relation to their masculine cis man friend/partner, I’m gonna start breaking people’s bones.

i genuinely hate how people have to sit and write a post that stands out while boosting a fundraiser because most people won't bat an eye at the misery and inhumane conditions Palestinians are living in.

i see people making art and telling others to use it because fundraisers with art are generally reblogged more often. i see people using colored text in order to make the post more eye catching.

palestinians on instagram are using popular audios and stitch trending reels at the beginning to make the world pay attention to them. imagine having to make something look entertaining in order to survive.

they are living under constant threat of israeli airstrikes, bombing, scarcity of food and disease. many have lost a lot in the past few months.

palestinians on tumblr are posting their pictures and the horrible conditions in which they are living. they travel long distances for internet connection only to be called a scammer by some privileged ass who cannot locate gaza on a map.

here are some verified gfms. please share the linked posts. it's the bare minimum we can do from the comforts of our home.
