Goodnight Everyone (:

Meet Chili (left) and Sponge! (right)

They have their own little story going on in my head rn, tbh it might become a writing project! Chili is a sand/sky hybrid, while Sponge is pure seawing ^^

Lmk if you’re interested in odd animus powers, silly friendships, and found family :3

On this day last year, my family faced a choice no one should ever have to make: stay in their home in Gaza and risk death or flee south, clinging to the slim hope of finding safety. Spoiler alert: there was no “right” answer. In Gaza, there never is. Families like mine would run from areas labeled dangerous, only to be bombed in so-called ‘humanitarian’ zones. Because in Gaza, no place is truly safe.

Each time they evacuated, they had the same gut-wrenching, desperate conversations on repeat: “Should we stay or go? Where would we even go? Do we send the women and children first, or do we all stick together?” Imagine trying to make life-and-death decisions with bombs falling around you.

One evening, a family friend offered them shelter, hoping the madness would calm down in a few days. My brothers agreed to move everyone there the next morning. But the bombs beat them to it. Just hours after that phone call, Israeli airstrikes hit our friend’s house. Thirty-five people, including children, gone. They never got a chance to move, and instead, they grieved for the lives lost.

They ran to Khan Younis, only for tragedy to follow. In November 2023, Israeli bombs hit my cousin’s house. I lost three cousins, their wives, and their children. It was chaos. Pieces of people scattered everywhere. A small child’s body lay unrecognizable until my cousin realized it was her son, Odi. His head was almost gone, but she knew him. She knew him by the shape of his teeth, his little toes. That’s the kind of loss no mother should ever face.

Since then, my family has moved over 50 times, haunted by the same questions: Where can they go next? How can they afford to survive another evacuation? Will they even manage to set up another flimsy tent?

And speaking of tents, imagine trying to live in one with your children. Picture makeshift cesspits serving as toilets, which fill up in a few weeks, forcing them to dig another. Comfort? Safety? Those words mean nothing. How do you sleep at night when your ‘home’ is a tent and your bathroom is a hole in the ground?

Talking about my family and Gaza breaks me, yet it also brings me a strange comfort. I refuse to let their stories fade. Their memories are beacons in the darkness, bittersweet reminders of joy and sorrow.

My family needs urgent help to survive this ongoing nightmare. Please, donate if you can. Share our story with your friends and family. Help us keep fighting, keep surviving.

EVERYONE PLEASE SHARE AND BOOST AS MUCH AS YOU CAN!!

This is Ahmed Ziad, an engineer from Gaza currently trapped there with his elderly parents, sisters, and brothers. His home and livelihood were destroyed by bombs, access to food and fresh water along with other necessities is extremely limited in Gaza due to the blockade and there is practically no safe shelter.

please donate and share so that we can help them get to a safe place.

I hope you and your family can get to a safe place soon 🙏

It’s rare to feel happy in northern Gaza. But the other day, my sister Soso made me smile.

It’s not a lie that sugar is expensive. 1kg is $80. Frying oil is $70. That donut was expensive to make, even without the sugar. But it’s okay. Even if it means the adults can’t eat, it’s okay. Soso was happy for a few hours. She’s only 4 years old yet her life is already so hard. She’s not growing properly due to malnutrition and trauma. Her mental health is in shambles, not at all how a child should be. Since birth, two wars have come very close to killing her, so we just want her to be happy.

Please help me make her happy every day. A few days ago, she was the happiest child in the world because she ate an apple for the first time in a year. That won’t happen again because fruits are too expensive, but I swear, she explodes with joy when we buy vegetables too. She is a child with simple dreams.

Please don’t feel hesitant to help me, my campaign has been vetted!

stop fucking using the word psychotic to describe bad behaviour and violence already god fucking damn it

The Bards!!! Each one has slightly different colors, and eye styles! More info on my choices below!! + Bard without filter (WARNING BIG MESSAGE LOL)

Snufkin: More softer colors to match the painterly style of the 1990s version, and his D shaped eyes like how he actually is in the show, and the ears because someone else did that and I thought it was cute Patch: Patch!!! He's vibrant because I can totally see SOM as a cartoon, I dulled his colors and gave him a hoodie to match more, also his cat-eyes (is that what they're called???) in the bookcovers Bard: Dulled and story-booky, more wider eyes, with the stars in them to symbolize the Earthsong :D I struggled with their coat-collar thing a LOT if you can't tell LOL (also yes I gave them hair, specifically ginger hair but the filter makes it weird) Wander: Vibrant for being a cartoon, and I made him more human-like, couldn't really decide what I wanted to do with his shirt, though.
