A digital collage on a pastel pink background with colorful rainbow swirls, serving as a campaign for assistance in a refugee camp. The central text reads, "HELP", "SOPHIE AND HER FRIENDS IN THE GOROM REFUGEE CAMP", and "THANK YOU". The collage consists of four images: in the top-left, a person is holding a progress pride flag; in the top-right, two people are holding a handmade sign that says, "LGBTIQ LIVES MATTERS"; in the bottom-left, a group of people stands together in a dusty outdoor area in front of simple buildings; and in the bottom-right, a black-and-white portrait shows three people.A cute pink graphic titled "Help the trans & queer community in Gorom Refugee camp, South Sudan" shaped around a giant rainbow. There’s a quote reading, "Your love, solidarity & compassion keep us alive. They remind us that that we are not forgotten and and that we deserve dignity and safety. —Sophie" Below are two pink glitter-framed photos: one, a heart-shaped photo of a group of Black LGBTQ+ people striking fierce poses with trans flags, and a photo of a group of Black LGBTQ+ people sitting together outside with the queer progress flag and trans flags.

Sipping my coffee ☕️ and thinking about these marvellous Minoan cups! They look so modern it’s incredible to think they were made by Bronze Age potters some 3,800 years ago! Heraklion Archaeological Museum, Crete. 📷 by me #Archaeology
My photo collage shows five cylindrical Minoan cups each with a single handle and a slightly flaring rim. Each cup is decorated with a different geometric polychrome motif as follows:

Top left: on a black background, a central band delineated by an upper and lower white line contains evenly-spaced dark-orange circles. Each orange circle is outlined by a white line. Above and below the central band are swirling white vine-like lines.

Top right: on a black background, a large white spiral on the front of the cup and beside it a dark-orange oval with stylised white petals at each end which looks like a wrapped sweet!

Middle left: a central band of white and dark orange diagonal lines runs around the cup. Above and below the central band are alternating black and white diagonal shapes, the black ones look like shark fins

Bottom left: a central reddish-orange band delineated with a white line. Above the central band are swirling, spiralling white lines against a black background, and below the central band are alternating white and black diagonal lines.

Bottom right: A central band delineated with white lines contains white 's'-shaped diagonal white stripes. Above the central band a row of red dots outlined with white circles. Below the central band a single white line on the black background.

This type of Minoan pottery is known as Kamares Ware, named after the Kamares Cave on Mount Ida on the Greek island of Crete where this kind of pottery was first discovered. Kamares Ware vessels were luxury items produced by palace workshops at Phaistos and Knossos on Crete. These five cups were excavated at Phaistos and are dated 1800-1700 BC.

My dear friend Asma is raising funds to survive as a Palestinian refugee + to pay back a friend for helping them flee the Israeli bombardment in Gaza in 2024. Asma + her husband are working hard to provide for their 2 young daughters. Please consider giving if you can. ❤️🇵🇸 tiny.cc/asmacairo
A poster titled "HELP ASMA SURVIVE IN CAIRO," and the following main body text: "Asma is a dear friend of mine. Thanks to the generosity of an Irish friend, she and her family were able to flee Gaza in 2024. Her family escaped genocide, but now they are facing hardship in Cairo. She and her husband are employed, but as Palestinians, they have very limited options for work and very low pay. Donations to Asma would: 1) Help pay back her friend who sold her apartment to help Asma escape a genocide and 2) Help Asma pay for medical care and other basic needs." The cursive text at the bottom says "Can you give a coffee weekly or monthly for Asma?" followed by the URL circle in black "TINY.CC/ASMACAIRO". The photo on the top left is Kat and Asma, with Kat wearing a kufiya and glasses and Asma wearing a light hijab and a blue top. It is captioned "Asma and I were able to meet last summer!". The picture in the bottom left is of Asma's two daughters, Hind and Lana, dressed in dark school uniforms, with the girl on the right (Hind) giving two peace signs to the camera. The picture on the bottom right is Asma and her daughters at a graduation ceremony. She is hugging Hind, and Lana stands on the left holding a certificate.

I think the thinking among university leaders is that we can ride Trump out for STEM but strategically use GOP dominance to undermine and possibly end the study of culture by humanists & social scientists unless it conforms to our center-right ideological preferences.

Just to clarify: Sophie's GFM has been down for almost a month (and now that's permanent) - the link I've been boosting since then has been the Chuffed. The Chuffed is fine and hopefully will remain that way.

For reasons they refuse to explain, despite their cooperation + plenty of evidence that the organizer + benefactor are who they say they are, GoFundMe removed Sophie's fundraiser. I don't know how this happened or how she got flagged, but I hope responsible parties are proud of themselves. /S 🧵

This is too much for one person, but I am trying to keep everything seen so I'll be imperfect, I'll repeat, I'll likely make mistakes, but there is a genocide and I am throwing my body and mental health into the death machine to stop it. @archaeobes.bsky.social tiny.cc/gorom
A digital collage on a pastel pink background with colorful rainbow swirls, serving as a campaign for assistance in a refugee camp. The central text reads, "HELP", "SOPHIE AND HER FRIENDS IN THE GOROM REFUGEE CAMP", and "THANK YOU". The collage consists of four images: in the top-left, a person is holding a progress pride flag; in the top-right, two people are holding a handmade sign that says, "LGBTIQ LIVES MATTERS"; in the bottom-left, a group of people stands together in a dusty outdoor area in front of simple buildings; and in the bottom-right, a black-and-white portrait shows three people.A cute pink graphic titled "Help the trans & queer community in Gorom Refugee camp, South Sudan" shaped around a giant rainbow. There’s a quote reading, "Your love, solidarity & compassion keep us alive. They remind us that that we are not forgotten and and that we deserve dignity and safety. —Sophie" Below are two pink glitter-framed photos: one, a heart-shaped photo of a group of Black LGBTQ+ people striking fierce poses with trans flags, and a photo of a group of Black LGBTQ+ people sitting together outside with the queer progress flag and trans flags.

Thank you to Adrienne who donated $10 a couple days ago! Can you match it today? We are SO close on getting this bill closed out for Sophie, just need ~$115 USD more. (If 11 people can match Adrienne today, we can cover it!) tiny.cc/gorom @pepsffk.bsky.social
