A small yellow pepper with the top cut off to reveal the pith in the shape of an x. With a little seed in one of the gaps, it looks like a stick figure.

The link has her full post, but this excerpt says it all: “It’s the most truthful and easiest thing to say that Oct 7th in Israel was horrific and all hostages must be returned, but so is the genocide, humanitarian crisis, and starvation happening in Gaza.”
