by the way this is the procedure to get out of gaza

  1. it costs 5k USD per adult and 2.5k USD per child
  2. if you want to raise this money via GOFUNDME it has to be arranged by someone who is NOT living in Palestine because GFM does not release money to Palestine. GFM also verifies every detail so it has to be accurate so you need someone who is out of Palestine and also familiar with the bureaucracy.
  3. once you raise the money one of your FIRST ORDER RELATIVES have to deposit this money IN CASH and IN PERSON at the Cairo offices of a company called hala. this person cannot be a Palestinian male under 40 because they are not allowed to be Egypt without a permit
  4. once you pay the money you have to WAIT for your names to be published by Egyptian military at the Rafah crossing and the you have 24 hours to get out

it is a very long and convoluted process that is impossible for most Palestinians who do not have contacts in other counties. Please please donate to the GFMs you see floating around because they’ve been verified and this is only the first step in an arduous journey. Once in Cairo, Palestinians aren’t allowed to work so they need money for their support also.

Hot Take(?)

My least favorite theory when it comes to Okami and Okamiden is people trying to say that Waka and Amaterasu Did It™️ to make Chibiterasu because “there’s no one else up there” or “there’s no one else she could have done it with for chibi to be like a carbon copy of her”

It’s just so stupid like there’s so many other explanations that make more sense and isn’t just weird you know?? Like if this theory was true how the hell did the other brush gods get children?? Did Waka just sleep with all of them??? How did Bakugami already have children in the first game if that’s the case?

My personal theory is that sometime after the end of Okami, due to the power imbalance of the leader of the powers of darkness being dead, all the gods created children out of some of their powers to officially stand in and take over to balance it out Yinyang style. Bakugami’s kids are special and don’t really fit this theory but I imagine they came about because of Tama and his further invention of fireworks/cherry bomb resulting in the new gods appearing. Bakugami just let them take over when the other gods formed children as there’s no need for him to make more.

I’ve seen some other theories too, like the idea Amaterasu just drew Chibiterasu into existence, which also kind of makes sense with the other brush gods as they theoretically can do the same since as brush gods they should be able to use the celestial brush. (would be kinda dumb if they couldn’t) I just don’t personally believe in these theories, they’re completely valid though :))

I just have Feelings about this theory and it makes me unreasonably annoyed every time I see it

Shout out to the people in the notes of this post talking to me about this theory and their own theories

For one, shoutout to @arcane-star for hating this theory as much as I do, love that for us

Shoutout to @mosswild for bringing up a good point in that even in Japanese mythology gods don’t need to be formed by just smexy time

And finally shoutout to @salvageableq2e for bringing me some very creative ideas for this, including the one seen in the photo and the one after this where they talk about tobi being reincarnated as Chibi and honestly that’s such a goated idea/theory

In conclusion I love that this post has turned into a discussion of other people’s theories and ideas and bonding over the hate of this god forsaken theory. It’s such a delight to talk about this and just see people’s ideas.

today's vetted fundraisers. eid just began - instead of a happy time of togetherness and celebration, families like these are having to spend the holy days amidst the cruelest of circumstances, deprived of all components of safe and healthy life. now is a more vital time than ever to support these campaigns. any contribution you can make is valuable.

june 16th:

if the list seems extra long today, take it as a signal that your help, in whatever form you can give, is urgently needed.

Verified Palestinian gofundme’s Masterlist

Rightfully so, I have gotten messages worrying if everything I post is legit (I try my best to make sure the answer is yes), but here’s a masterlist of ones that one or more people have confirmed are legit Palestinians. Most are from the blogs @el-shab-hussein, @ibtisams, @palestinecharitycommissionsassoc ,@90-ghost, @nabulsi and @palipunk

I will also be making individual posts for most of these

these are vetted, please don't hesitate to share and donate
