it must’ve been a heavy burden.
More than 300 Palestinian sports teams are calling to ban Israel from the Olympics over its genocide against Palestinians in Gaza. [...] In Gaza, Israel has killed Palestinian Olympic Football coach Hani Al Masdar, destroyed the Palestinian Olympic Committee offices, and turned sports facilities into shameful mass detention and torture centers. We can’t sit back as the IOC allows Israel to use the Olympics to sportswash its genocide in Gaza and its apartheid regime against Palestinians everywhere. Support the call from Palestinian teams. Join the campaign to #BanIsrael from the Olympics and peacefully disrupt the road to the Paris 2024 games.
Ahead of the IOC executive board meeting in Lausanne Switzerland (March 19-21), take the call from Palestinian teams to your National Olympic Committee, International Sports Federations and Recognized Sports Federations. Organize protests, sit-ins, peaceful disruptions, or awareness raising events on Israeli attacks on Palestinian sports.
For more concrete information on how you can participate in the campaign, see the link above. You should also check in with your local BDS-affiliated organization(s) to see if they have anything planned for these dates (if they don't, consider bringing it up to them)
If you're not familiar with any BDS-affiliated organizations in your country (or state/city), then take a look at BDS's "Join a Campaign'"page.
There's also a petition you can sign.

everytime I remember that lesbian couple that have a marble statue of the two of them embracing and sleeping on a bed together over where their graves will be because the artists didn’t believe they would be able to be married before they died, so what they couldn’t have in life they could have in death, I fucking breakdown

And a Frankenstein's monster Arthur for Halloween. Thought that maybe Professor Marko Dragic found him after the ending of Arthur's story (if you haven't finished all missions with the Professor) and thought of "giving it back" to Arthur after his help.
gaza's health ministry reports that their hospitals have declared total collapse. they were already functioning at half capacity, using vinegar for antiseptic and operating on children without anaesthesia. and now they're gone, in a population were millions are living on the streets, where there is no longer any water so diseases are running rampant, where people are wearing masks because the bombing that has already decimated 50% of gaza's infrastructure and buildings has made breathing difficult for everyone due to the dust and ash in the air, where only 14 trucks of food or water or medical aid have been allowed to enter when the estimated need is over 500. imagine how it is for the 50,000 women in gaza who were pregnant before october 7th, for all the disabled residents, for all the diabetics, for the cancer patients, for the ICU patients, for the neonatal units, for people with severe burns, for people with broken bones
no hospitals
