okay i chose the song, dramatics over

im having another crisis on choosing songs for chapters (this time just chapter 24)

i honestly thought i had it down previously, but my mind was nitpicky and went ‘erm actually this doesn’t fit the mood of the chapter! 🤓☝️”

but yeah, that’s the process of me choosing songs for chapters: the name has to fit (not my main concern however, the other two are more important to me honestly), the lyrics reflect the theme/mood of the chapter well, BUT the main main thing is the instrumental.

So yeah im a little stuck, because a song’s lyrics fit perfectly, but the instrumental is too upbeat, and one of the other options have the perfect instrumental but i haven’t dived into the lyrics so it might not match the chapter at all in that regard.

it’s a little silly, but naming chapters is so fun to me, so i don’t mind that much 🥹

Sami's Last Dream: Escaping the Hell of Gaza in Search of Safety

In Gaza, where life has become nothing more than a fight for survival, Sami and His Family are living a never-ending nightmare. Every new day brings more destruction and fear, and what once was a safe home for them has turned into rubble and painful memories.

Their house collapsed entirely before their eyes. The sound of the explosion that destroyed everything, the relentless scene of devastation, and the tears of his children that have not stopped, have all become a constant reality in Sami's life. His three children—Jud, Lin, and Misk—clung to their mother in the corner of the tent that has become their only refuge. But even this tent cannot protect them from the scorching summer heat or the bitter winter cold. ️

Sami has lost everything. The shop that was their only source of income is gone, and now he stands powerless, watching his family suffer, unable to do anything for them. The mother tries to hide her tears, fearing she might break down in front of her children, and the siblings share this pain without knowing when it will end.

Amid all this pain, Sami clings to one last dream—a dream that seems distant but is all he has left. He wants to take his family far away from this hell, to find a safe place where his children can sleep without the fear of bombings, where they can learn and grow without the scars of war. He wants to see his children smile again, to give them a chance at a life stolen from them by the war.

But even this simple dream comes with great challenges. The cost of traveling through the Rafah border crossing is exorbitant—$5,000 per adult and $3,000 per child. With seven family members, these costs are more than just numbers; they are a massive hurdle that Sami cannot overcome alone.

Additionally, there are many other expenses such as securing housing, food, and medical care after leaving Gaza, making the situation even more difficult.

Today, Sami and his family stand on the edge of despair. They need your help now more than ever. Every donation, no matter how small, can be a step towards realizing Sami's last dream—to take his family to a place far from this tragedy. A place where they can start anew, and live with dignity and safety. ✨

Help Sami achieve this dream.

Donate now and be the ray of hope that saves this family from the darkness surrounding them. Let us be the reason his children smile again, and give them the chance at the life they deserve.

Something I never got about Strangers is how some people interpreted it to be entirely about cannibalism and Isaiah? On my first listen, when I didn't know the story behind it, I always thought it was about ethel's mother, Willoughby, and the town she grew up in over anything. She feels like a disappointment, like she made it out of town but never truly left. When she asks 'am I feeling you sick' I believe it is a broader sentiment. Does her situation make her mother feel sick? Does the way she turned out make Willoughby, where ever he is, feel sick? Does her story, the haunting nature of it, make the town sick? Are they disgusted by her? Does she keep them from sleeping? Of course cannibalism is a huge part of strangers, but there's also so much more to it that's hidden beneath the surface. Isaiah is not the only aspect of ethel's story. She is more than Isaiah.
