@OssianLore@chicgibson Respectfully, PA were not given enough notice to secure funding. I merely wanted to point out that the situation is not just about a bunch of privilaged artists whining about losing freebies.
Let's leave it at that. It's Sunday.
Enjoy the rest of your day. 👍
@OssianLore@chicgibson If you don't like my turn of phrase, fair enough. It's not hyperbole though.
"The creative community needs to get creative." Sure but at such short notice creativity only goes so far. Without A LOT of money from somewhere disabled people will suffer.
@OssianLore@chicgibson Utterly bizarre that you would acusse me of hyperbole. What part of my response to you was a wild exaggeration? For what it's worth I agree that artists are best placed to offer creative solutions. Project Ability is a different scenario though.
@OssianLore@chicgibson I have no desire to get into petty arguments about emotional blackmail. My point stands. Project Ability deserves to be protected. Throwing them into the jaws of predatory capitalists is neither wise or kind.
@OssianLore@chicgibson It's not emotional blackmail. It's simply a fact that disabled people are losing services across the city. Art is not a luxury for the privilaged few. It can transform lives. Project Ability is an important resource that deserves to be protected.
@OssianLore@chicgibson Don't know if you realise, but Project Ability is on two floors of Trongate 103? They're an amazing organisation that provides access to the arts for people with learning disabilities and mental health challenges. Disabled people need our support more than ever right now.
Samar's children have been through unbearable hell these past few days, trying to survive the harsh storm completely exposed to the elements. A decent tent costs $800 and they barely have money even for food. Please help save them, even with only a small donation and a share 🙏💔
6 days without donations to this vital campaign providing several families, including children, with food, shelter, medicine, and more
Please help if you can🙏🏻

Only *one* beautiful soul has made a donation to Eman’s family lifeline in the last 10 DAYS. We are far from collecting their next urgently-needed transfer. Help build momentum and break the stagnation today. We cannot fail them.

Tahseen’s family have yet to see the life-critical support they need. Tahseen’s father urgently needs money for diabetes medication. Please donate so they can access life-saving aid. That they’ve gone without any help is heartbreaking and obscene.

Daily reminder
If you haven't already, please share, follow, & support @ll4gaza_ofcl & encourage everyone you know to do the same. There are many survival campaigns that have received 0 donations in weeks, some even in months.

NEVER forget the martyr Khalid Nabhan!
That kind grandpa who lost his beloved Reem, the soul of the soul.
Israel killed him in his tent after they killed his grandchildren and demolished his house.
Just remember, this is a Nazi website for Nazis.
It's designed to amplify hatred and racism. Nothing else.
The purpose of a system is what it does.
Log off. You're better than this.
Go outside and be kind.
