Reminds me of Arrietty

My current Imaginary Scenario is to pretend I'm a mouse in a sort of Beatrix Potter World and imagine all the different objects in my house and how I obtained them. You know, spool of thread side table I stole from an old lady's purse. Velvet ring box armchair I found discarded in the park after a failed marriage proposal. Pocket square bed linens I liberated from the coat of a man distracted by a pretentious argument about beer. Bottle cap dishes also liberated during that argument. Beaded curtain that used to be a Mardi Gras necklace. That sort of thing.

@staff our identities aren’t nsfw and we will not stand for them to be treated as such

Any other that comes to mind?

No Surprises.

When I was a kid, there were these old pipes that went nowhere sticking out of the ground near our house. I was convinced these were entrances to the houses of little magical creatures that lived underground. I often send them little "gifts" like dandelions for their salads.

What actually happened:

❗HOW TO SPOT A GOFUNDME SCAM❗

1. Typos in their own name

Etaf (E'taf? Ettaf?)'s campaign is filled with typos, including their own name.

2. Organizer claims to be in a country where GFM campaigns cannot be made

In Hazem's campaign, they claim to be in Gaza with the goal to go to Egypt. You CANNOT create a GoFundMe campaign in Gaza OR Egypt. You can check the list of countries supported on GFM here.

3. Organizer's location doesn't match with the story (or omitted)

Etaf claims to be in Egypt in the story. They're in Spain. When it comes to Hazem's campaign, the location of the organizer is omitted, yet they ask for Euros.

4. Beneficiary isn't mentioned in the story

Etaf's beneficiary isn't mentioned in the story. The family members are Youssef, Moataz, Moatasem, Maria, Adam and Amira.

5. Makes multiple accounts and then deactivates them

Notice how these accounts always have "Name+numbers"

6. Uses AI generated images

The mandible (i.e. lower jawbone) isn't part of the rest of the skull, but rather affixed by cartilage, muscles and ligaments, so would not just be there attached to a dry skeleton. Look at the ribcage and how it goes all the way down to the pelvis... Also the skeleton would NOT be this clean. Notice the lack of clothes as well.

Those images are used to tug at your heartstrings.

7. Incorrect information

As seen in Elham's campaign:

Wikipedia:

❗Remember, just because they have been "vetted" by @/gazavetters, doesn't make them legit!! The vetters have fallen for fake GFM before.❗

Look familiar?

Bots and scammers comb through popular tags on Tumblr and mass-send asks with gofundmes or PayPal links.

These blogs often only have three posts to them, or have only ever reblogged content from blogs that have very similar names.

Praying on your empathy, they give a massive schpiel about who they are, how they're impacted, and how they desperately need your money or for you to reblog so others send them money to "help" them.

The money goes to scam artists anywhere but Gaza.

There is very few people actually "vetting" these blogs. There is no official vetting process. Do not trust Tumblr blogs or Google documents claiming to vet these posts.

If you want to help people in Gaza, please head to places like World Central Kitchen. This is an organisation that's actually helping people in Gaza by providing food and water with their Chefs for Gaza initiative.

Cutie!! 💚

Replace the red by purple and you get Dimentio 🖤💛💜🤍

Enhance! ENHANCE! 🔍👀

Of course he would have a framed picture of his own wanted poster!

I see a trapdoor (?) on the left and a mysterious chest! A lot of things I wanna ask about but I don't wanna overwhelm the wonderful artist 💛💜

Can't wait to learn more about him!

The plain grey background was getting boring so I designed a bedroom. You'll mostly be seeing Dimentio seated at his bed, but you get to see this since I'm proud of how it came out. I very rarely draw backgrounds so I was struggling the entire time,, orz

Here's a version with Dimentio in it to make the sizing more clear. It also serves as a reminder that he is short. \o/

What? Dimentio looks different? No he doesn't, I don't know what you're talking about. I'm extremely consistent with my art and the way I draw characters. /silly

WAKE UP BABE NEW FAVORITE SHIP JUST DROPPED 🩵❤️

The Rosalina x Pauline Archive 🩵❤️

Haven't done a lot of shipping until the beginning of last year, when I found my hyper fixation: Rosalina x Pauline. Why? I don't know. But their my comfort ship. This will be a likely ever expanding collection of sketches/doodles/pieces of this ship I've posted on social media. For archiving purposes mainly. Enjoy.

Donald Trump Is Not Joking About Annexing Canada: A Fucking Timeline

December 3, 2024: Trump's quip about Canada becoming 51st state was a joke, says minister who was there (CBC News 🇨🇦) <- This is when it could have feasibly been a joke

January 7, 2025: Donald Trump is quoted in a press conference directly stating his intentions to annex Canada (New York Times, timestamp 0:45 🇺🇸) <- This is where Americans should have stopped telling Canadians it's just a joke

REPORTER 1: Are you also considering military force to annex and acquire Canada? DONALD TRUMP: No. Economic force.

February 7, 2025: Trudeau says Trump threat to annex Canada 'is a real thing' (BBC 🇬🇧) <- This is where the Commonwealth starts to take it seriously

Trudeau suggested Trump has floated the idea of taking over Canada and making it the "51st state" because he wants to access the country's critical minerals. "Mr Trump has it in mind that the easiest way to do it is absorbing our country and it is a real thing," the prime minister said.

February 9, 2025: "Trump's national security adviser: 'I don't think there's any plans to invade Canada'" (NBC News 🇺🇸) <- CANADIANS NOTICE THAT THIS IS NOT A VERY STRONG DENIAL OF POSSIBLE MILITARY FORCE

February 10, 2025: Trump Confirms He’s Serious About Wanting Canada As 51st State (Forbes 🇺🇸)

Fox News host Bret Baier asked Trump whether Trudeau was right in telling business leaders the U.S. president’s threat to absorb Canada is a “real thing,” to which Trump agreed with Trudeau and responded, “Yes it is.”

February 12, 2025: ‘Trump effect’: How US tariffs, ’51st state’ threats are shaking up Canada (Al Jazeera 🇶🇦) <- This is where the rest of the fucking world outside America starts to take it seriously

March 4, 2025: Canada Eyeing NATO Ally's Nukes To Deter Trump 'Threat': Candidate (Newsweek 🇺🇸), British nuclear weapons can protect Canada against Trump, says Trudeau party candidate (The Telegraph 🇬🇧)

“I would be working urgently with [European Nato allies] to build a closer security relationship… in a time when the United States can be a threat,” said [Canada's] ex-foreign minister and finance minister at the final Liberal leadership debate last week.

March 4, 2025: Prime Minister Trudeau: "What he wants is to see a total collapse of the Canadian economy, because that’ll make it easier to annex us” (CTV News 🇨🇦)

March 7, 2025: BC Premier David Eby: “We know the president in back rooms with Canadian officials has said he wants to redraw the border" (Global News 🇨🇦)

March 13, 2025 (TODAY): Trump threatens to acquire Canada, Greenland while next to NATO chief (Global News 🇨🇦)

“To be honest with you, Canada only works as a state...This would be the most incredible country visually,” [Trump] said. “If you look at a map, they drew an artificial line right through it, between Canada and the U.S., just a straight artificial line. Somebody did it a long time ago, many many decades ago, and it makes no sense.” -Donald Trump

And hey, just for fun, let's contrast that with another quote:

First of all, I would like to emphasize that the wall that has emerged in recent years between Russia and Ukraine, between the parts of what is essentially the same historical and spiritual space, to my mind is our great common misfortune and tragedy...I am confident that true sovereignty of Ukraine is possible only in partnership with Russia. -Vladimir Fucking Putin, the year before launching an attack on Ukraine, which everyone also said he was joking about and definitely wouldn't do (2021 essay, Kremlin official website 🇷🇺)

I know you're overwhelmed, Americans, but please stop saying this is a joke. Canadians are anticipating an invasion, possibly within the year. This is not a fucking drill.

How do I know if this tumblr fundraiser is a scam?

Look at the date the blog was created

Look at their reblogs, most will have happened within one day (usually the day they post their fundraiser), and then never again.

Search their name on tumblr, they would likely have spammed multiple blogs and some blogs tag usernames.

Usually it’s a pet or transgender related surgery fundraiser (or whatever is “trendy at the time” i.e. someone supposedly from Ukraine, someone who was brutalised by cops etc.).

Now this is not to say that these fundraisers aren’t legit, but likely they either aren’t or are taken from legit fundraising sites and reposted without the original person’s knowledge.

They ask for PayPal donations, it’s quick, simple, all it needs is a bank account linked to an email address, and there is no way to check if it’s legit or to see how much has been donated.

These scams have been going on for many years and they raise funds, delete their blog, open a new one, raise funds, and the cycle goes on.

PLEASE DO YOUR DUE DILIGENCE BEFORE REBLOGGING ONE OF THESE SCAM POSTS!

When you keep creating new accounts to get free shit. But instead of harmless free trials you milk people’s bleeding hearts for money.

Scams on Tumblr, what to watch out for.

Just a PSA. If you have someone going in your inbox asking for money, it's 99.9% a scam (yes I mean the ones claiming to be families in Gaza needing funds to escape). Do NOT answer those asks or give them money, don't expose them to more people who'd fall for it as well, don't do a THING with it.

Paypal does NOT provide service to Palestinians, there's been a campaign for it to be provided for Palestinians since OCTOBER. If someone in your inbox is asking you for money at all much less linking to a PAYPAL. It's a scam. Don't give it the time of day. I've gotten asks upon ASKS of nothing but people giving these stories and linking donation sites, a LOT of it being the same exact message like 5 times.

Examples of what to look out for :

Not every Palestinian is scamming when they ask for help. But a lot of stupid people will use your empathy for their personal profit and there's a good chance the things they're using aren't their own photos or stories, please do not fall for this. If you'd like to help please check verified accounts and donation sites, I really suggest checking the ones listed here. These people are quite literally stealing the IDENTITIES of actual Palestinian families to swindle money out of you.

I'm so tired of the scummy people on here using such a horrific and insane situation for their own monetary gain, it is the SICKEST thing someone can do. This needs to be called out more.

And I know some people will go limb for limb defending these bots and I understand since the circumstances are heartbreaking. But this is quite literally extortion. You are being extorted if you fall for this without verifying if it's real. And it's.. more often than not, not real.

I noticed these scam accounts are now resorting to tagging random people in the comments.

(Notice here how they are two different accounts with different names and yet have the same profile picture...)

You can prevent that by changing your settings!

Have you seen her pirate costume?? She is BEAUTIFUL

loving turnabout reclaimed so far, but the way they’re treating Norma DePlume is kinda pissing me off even if it’s not at all surprising lmao

she’s like actually quite pretty with great hair and makeup and she dresses nicely. but she’s fat so of course everyone treats her like she’s unsightly and ridiculous for considering herself attractive. super fucking annoying.

Come on Dim!! This is so close!! The most clever and evil Mario villain deserves this!

where is that cat with the kind and reassuring face

Dimentio with a hoodie sounds adorable!! I can imagine it's like those cat ear hoodies, but with 5 points. Like this?

Just imagine him in this during his day off! 👇🏻

Speaking of cats, the artist who made the seesaw also made cat Dimentio art!

Apparently his collar is spiky at the back??

Also, have this video!

https://x.com/zhala_kia/status/1570767143964229633

I discovered this too late unfortunately. I did manage to change his collar on time tho. Because I saw his sprites and saw the collar, but never saw screenshots of him from behind.

This makes be think that his headdress is more of a hoodie (maybe)!

And that vid did NOT waste my time. It gave me life, thank you UwU
