More totally normal zionazi behaviour.
Pretty sure heritageposts is a cracker like I'm not sure why they're calling them Palestinian.
Anyways one of the several instant reasons you can tell this person's a zionazi and not someone concerned with the Palestinian movement, moreso just a zionazi smear campaign than anything else.
Btw like Ahmed is on there. You know. The Palestinian living in Ghazzah who's survived displacement and several air strikes. And famine. And genocide. He's still there. Trying to survive the genocide. And he's being posted by that blog to be harassed. There is no depths these cunts won't sink to. There is nothing so low that it's beneath them.

ALTThere is no possible reality where this is in any way capable of being passed off as self-defense. It was never self-defense. It is, and always has been, a genocide.
Crying babies. Crying babies. This is, beyond a shadow of a doubt, meant to draw out and kill civilians while also making it far more difficult to locate and aid children who are trapped or alone.
If you have money to spare, please consider donating to some of the fundraisers on Operation Olive Branch to help people escape this genocide.
They only need 700USD more!
I get that as a species human beings qualify as animals taxonomically.
But if you think it is in any way shape or form appropriate to refer to Palestinians as 'animals other than chickens' when we are being called "human animals and must be treated as such" to justify our genocide, then I think you personally deserve death.
Ideological vegans are the scum of the earth.
Palestinians are not gonna go vegan to make you feel comfortable. Find a bridge.

"Who Is Superman? A Private Interview with Lois Lane" a fancomic about hope and connection.
I've had this story in mind for so long and I'm very excited to be able to share it at last. Thank you for reading, and happy Lunar New Year!
Aah thanks for all the love guys ;_; in case anyone's interested in more historical context I recommend these New Naratif articles on the May 1998 Riots in Indonesia, and "My Name Is..." a short comic on the history behind Chinese-Indonesian names.
[Comic description: A comic portraying Superman and Lois Lane (depicted as a Southeast Asian woman in a purple office suit and skirt). Long description follows.
Superman sets Lois down gently as she says, ‘That’s going to take some getting used to.’ The two are far from the city, in a roadside canyon with a view overlooking Metropolis. Standing in front of a fence with Metropolis and a sunset-coloured sky in the distance, Superman asks, ‘The flying?’ Pulling something from her pocket, Lois says, ‘Oh, that and everything. Let’s get to it, shall we?’
The item she pulled from her pocket turns out to be a recorder device, which clicks on as she says, ‘This is Lois Lane of the Daily Planet, interviewing the elusive Superman. The date is – nevermind, let’s cut to the chase.’ He looks somewhat surprised as Lois paces around. She says ‘Although some feel that you’ve made your intentions clear to Metropolis through your acts of heroism and good will . . . others feel that the way you’ve avoided giving an official statement has led to speculation and worry.’
She holds the recorder up to him and asks, ‘So why speak up now, Superman?’ He pauses before responding.
Superman smiles and says, ‘Well . . . because I’m ready to talk.’
Looking incredulous, Lois asks, ‘Can you explain why you feel “ready” to talk.’
Now floating a few feet off the ground, he replies, ‘I guess . . . people have always been nosy about me, even before I started flying. Lately it’s like every other day someone’s trying to figure out who I am and how I’m like this.’
He finger guns in her direction and says, ‘Why, you were the most gutsy about investigating me, Ms. Lane. Didn’t you pitch that one theory about my strength being the result of a lab accident—’ She cuts him off- blushing in embarrassment as she says, ‘Okay, listen!’
Gesturing with the recorder still in her hands, Lois says, ‘All of that was before you came out to Metropolis as an . . . I didn’t—we didn’t know you were an—’
He completes her sentence. ‘An alien?’
Her arms fall to her sides, and Lois pauses. Crossing her arms, she says, ‘I was going to say “immigrant.”’ Landing back on the ground again, Superman says, ‘Oh.’
Lois sighs and tucks the recorder back into her pocket, turning it off with a click. She says, ‘Look, we can keep this off the record. I just need to know.’
Superman crosses his arms, his shadow looming out from under him as she goes on. ‘You have a good thing going. “The boy scout strongman who upholds truth, justice, and the American way.” The “Super-Man” with an “S” on his chest to show for it. Why put all that at risk by coming out as a foreigner, not just to this country but to this planet?’
Looking pensive, Superman says, ‘I see. I’ll start with what I know, then.’
As Superman talks, Lois has parallel memories of her past. Superman narrates, ‘I was born on a planet called Krypton. I can barely remember what it was like.’ The art shows a dark-skinned infant Lois being carried in a selendang (a baby carrier made out of long cloth tied from the shoulder to the waist) by her dark-skinned Indonesian mother. An Indonesian house is in the background, and the two are under a shady tree. In the next frame, Superman says, ‘I was sent away as an infant when my parents discovered the planet was doomed for destruction.' The parallel memory shows Lois now as an older child, crying as she is carried away by her father (a Chinese Indonesian man with glasses and pale skin) as the houses around them burn and are looted. Superman continues, 'Even with no memory of Krypton, I always knew I was different. Different in a way that scared people here.’ The art shows Lois as a preteen girl, wearing a sarong (long waist length fabric) and purple jacket, holding her father's hand as her mother (wearing a kebaya and sarong) walks behind them. Two passersby, both white, glare at the three of them, and Lois looks unhappily back at them.
Superman continues, ‘I began to fear that part of me too. So I tried to hide and suppress it. Maybe if I could convince others I was like them . . . I’d believe it too.’ The art shows Lois’s closet with a kebaya (an upper garment adorned in embroidery. The front is secured with a broach and a bow) stored far in the back behind a business blazer hung on hangers. Skirts and a patterned sarong are folded neatly at the bottom of the closet. In the next frame, an adult Lois chooses to wear the blazer while looking into the closet longingly.
In the present day, Superman gestures to the S on his chest and says, ‘But I’ve had enough of denying who I am. I’m just now learning how much more I can do for others, and for myself, by being whole. I have to hope that people will see the good in that. That’s what it means to wear this symbol. It’s how I keep the memory of my people alive.’ The next frame shows him from the back, with the S visible on his cape.
Looking off to the side, Lois pauses and then asks, ‘What exactly do you want?’
He smiles and replies, ‘I want to fly, Lois.’
Lois rests a hand on the fence and says nothing for a moment. Then she leans on the fence and says as she looks over to Metropolis, ‘A lot of people aren’t going to be kind about this, you know.’ With her gaze pointed downwards, she says, ‘It won’t matter how much good you do. All they’ll see is how you don’t fit in.’
From over her shoulder, Superman looks to her and says, ‘It’s a risk I’m willing to take. I appreciate the concern.’
A wide shot shows the two are standing on a rocky area overlooking a canyon with a river and the city in the distance. Superman continues, ‘I’ve read a lot of your work, Ms. Lane. It’s admirable – the things you bring attention to in your writing.’
He smiles at her and adds, ‘If there’s anyone I trust to tell my story, it’s you.’
Playing with a piece of hair by her ear, Lois asks, ‘And what is your story, Superman?’ She finger guns at him and asks, ‘Who are you when you’re not in the cape and tights?’
Superman scratches the back of his head with an arm and looks away bashfully. He says, ‘Oh! I don’t know if we’re ready for that yet.’
Looking away with a playful look, Lois says, ‘Ha! There I go being nosy again.’ Behind her, Superman blushes slightly and says, ‘Hmm.’
Turning to her with a hand on his chest, Superman says, ‘I . . . have this name. No one’s called me it in years. It’s the one I was given on Krypton. Can we keep it between us?’ Lois replies, ‘Oh! Sure. I mean, if you’re comfortable.’
The river flows quietly by in the background as he says, ‘My name is Kal-el.’
Lois answers, ‘Huh, it suits you. Can I call you “Kal,” Kal-el?’
Hands on his hips, Superman says, ‘Haha! I like it! It’s nice being called that.’
Looking out into the distance, Lois asks, ‘Makes you feel whole again?’ She looks wistful as he replies, ‘Yes. It really does.’
Balancing on the edge of the fence, Superman braces to fly away, saying, ‘I should get going. It was nice talking with you, Ms. Lane.’ Before he can depart, she says, ‘Wait.’
Looking up at him as he floats just off the side of the cliff, she says, ‘You’ve put a lot of trust into this city, a lot of trust in me. I’d like to trust you with something, Kal.’
From where he floats, Superman asks, ‘What is it?’
Lois says, ‘My name. One I haven’t used in a long time.’ Her words float in the orange cloudy sky as she goes on. ‘It’s well – it’s funny. A policy changed it years age so that my family could better assimilate in Indonesia, but- since we fled to America, it’s gotten me rejected whenever anyone sees it on a resumé.’
Crossing her arms, Lois adds, ‘We went through all that trouble, just to change it again.’ Off panel, Superman pauses. Lois goes on, ‘I’ve dealt with a lot less of it now that I’ve taken my step dad’s name. But . . it’s just . . .’
Superman smiles gently and says, ‘You don’t have to explain.’
Smiling up at him, Lois says, ‘My name is Lois Liando. Let’s keep that between us.’
Superman says, ‘I will. Thank you.’ As he turns to fly away he adds over his shoulder, ‘Oh! One more thing.’
She leans against the fence and watches him fly into the distance as he says, ‘I hope you get to fly someday too, Ms. Liando.’ \End description]

Thank you @a-captions-blog for the original image ID/descriptions! I just made some edits.
Corrected McDonald's bus stop ad in London
Under Wix, who acquired DeviantArt in 2017, DV has been pushing Israeli occupation propaganda and allowing Generative Ai to completely takeover the platform and be sold on it.
It’s clear that under Wix, DeviantArt DOES NOT CARE whatsoever about the art or the artists it was originally created to cater towards. It only cares for profit.
Even if you are not well-versed on the current politics surrounding the Israeli Occupation and the erasure of Palestine for some reason, everyone can agree that Wix has changed DeviantArt for the worse and the best case scenario is that they sell it to someone who actually cares for art, not profit.
I absolutely adore to death so much of the art there, but for now I will stop posting my art there and I suggest that other artists do the same. They DO NOT DESERVE YOUR ART.
Please transition towards using alternatives like Tumblr, Insta, Twitter, and Newgrounds. Newgrounds especially is the best alternative to DeviantArt. Please suggest other alternatives as well.
Oh yeah I remember seeing dA staff's official account post this absolute dogshit of a journal a little while back but had no clue about them being owned by Wix! I've been absolutely done with them ever since I saw that journal and honestly I highly advise leaving the site entirely, it's not been good for actual years.
As for alternatives, I've heard Artfol and Side7 are good art-focused sites and Bluesky is a good place to post all around, but haven't used them much if at all myself. I personally highly recommend Sheezy.art! It's an art-focused site and honestly reminds me a lot of old dA (back when it was actually good) in terms of UI and submitting art! I don't believe registrations are fully open as of yet (and i'd advise joining after the strike today anyways) but I highly recommend it, it's personally my favorite art website of the ones I've tried!
Between Paramount’s endorsement of Israel and the fat jokes from the Cinemacon trailer, the Keanu casting is just another nail in the coffin for this movie.
Wouldn't you know it, Keanu is also a Zionist. In addition to personally receiving Netanyahu in 2014, he was also trained by Aaron Cohen, former IOF soldier and current Zionist terrorist.
This movie was dead before it hit the ground. Don't watch Sonic 3 at all. Don't even pirate it. Don't give this scum any of your time or money.
