🚨 URGENT: PLEASE 🚨

My name is Samar, and I am a wife and mother of three beautiful children living in Gaza. Life has always been difficult, but our home—our only sanctuary—gave us some shelter from the horrors of war. That sanctuary no longer exists; it was destroyed by a bomb that erased 18 years of memories. 💥

Today, we live in a tent under unbearable conditions, having lost many loved ones—family members and friends, including several of my husband’s cousins. Every loss feels like a hard slap, and the fear of losing more haunts us daily. 🪦💔

We have been displaced nine times, narrowly escaping bombings each time. Our only dream now is to find a safe place where we can live with dignity, far from the nightmare we endure every day.

---

In the tent, my children are suffering. Their skin burns under the relentless sun, and they struggle with respiratory illnesses. They have developed jaundice and gastrointestinal infections from the lack of clean water and proper food. Their innocent faces, once full of joy, are now filled with fear. It breaks my heart to see them live like this, and I am terrified they will grow up knowing nothing but war and suffering. 🔥

Living in Gaza is dangerous, and no one can leave without paying a large sum of money. The only way to escape is to cross into Egypt, which costs between $5,000 - $7,000 per person. For our family of seven, this is an impossible amount.

But with your support, we can raise the amount needed to evacuate: 👥

- Myself (Samar)

- My husband (Tareq)

- My beautiful daughters (Sham, Masa, and Wateen)

- My father-in-law (Ziad)

- My brother-in-law (Mohammed)

---

How the Funds Will Be Used: 💰

1. $120 per person for issuing passports. (Total $840)

2. $5,000–$7,000 per person to cross the border into Egypt. (Total $35,000 - $49,000)

3. $800 per person for visas and plane tickets to our destination. (Total $5,600)

4. $3,000 to cover GoFundMe’s transaction fees (2.9% + $0.30 per donation).

5. Cash Withdrawal Fees in Gaza: Due to a 20% commission for withdrawing funds, an additional $14,000 is required.

6. Any remaining amount will go toward temporary housing and food.

Some of my finished TMNT animations. I really love this generation of TMNT and I've felt very inspired by the style of it. My love for it is on par with my love for RiseTMNT if not a little bit more. I hope to do a few more turtle themed animations, but for now this is what I got! On a side note, I gotta say this version of April is definitely my favorite!

[loonarmuunar]

used to be one of the rotten ones and i liked you for that

[loonarmuunar]

my theory is dragons kidnap princesses for the same reason they hoard gold and other treasure, which is the perceived value and the bragging rights thereof. however, unlike precious metals and gems, human attractiveness is way more subjective, so you end up with dragons calculating the most valuable princess to nab and getting frustrated when their math doesn't check out...

eventually all roads lead back to me drawing spiderman fanart 😭

[loonarmuunar]

another PSA for new people in the tag:

The creator of the 2007 Flatland film, Ladd Ehlinger, is an infamously racist and misognyistic conservative. He runs a conservative talk show on youtube. He made a political add for Republicans that was so blatantly racist and misogynistic that the Republicans literally had to dissavow him for it.

He has compared taxes paying for lunches for poor school kids to literal slavery.

He thinks Black people are all violent criminals who would run around murdering White women in the street if we didn't jail them are disproportionate rate.

He thinks that if you respect a trans kid's pronouns it means you're a pedophile and should be thrown in jail for it.

If you care about minorities at all, stop making fanart for his film. Read the original book or watch any of the other adaptations not made by raging bigots who get their money and attention from youtube.

These characters are public domain. Instead of doing free advertising for a literal conservative so bigoted that Republicans are embarassed to associate with him, make up your own designs or use any of the many public domain designs available.

I guess I'll just make this a post that I make anew every two weeks or so until people get the memo.

Tell your friends what kind of person he is. Stop recommending people watch his film. It is literally worse than useless as a Flatland adaptation because he is literally incapable of actually showing us the progressive politics of the original novel because he cannot criticize the narrator's bigotry without criticizing himself.

Ladd Ehlinger is literally the exact kind of person the book was written to condemn. Stop doing free advertising for him. Make sure your friends know not to do free advertising for him. Downvote his video and tell everyone you know to do the same and to literally watch any other adaptation. Or. Read. The. Original. Book.

Gravity Falls fandom, this goes for you too. If you are interested in Flatland, do not recommend this film. Just read the original book or the 2024 translation or watch literally any other adaptation. Almost all of them are free on youtube or other sites.

Please spread this information even if you don't reblog this exact post. If you care about minorities, you will stop doing free advertising for this man, who gets his money from Youtube.

my grandfather was talking to me about a book he read on how politicians gave control to rich people and it fucked america and he was like "oh yeah this reminded me of a video I watched. It was Robert Reich. Do you know who Robert Reich is? He was clinton's secretary of labor" and I just nodded silently because I didn't know how to explain to my grandpa that yes I know who Robert Reich is. I watch his son psychologically torment improv comedians

i find it so interesting how people act like "critically examining a piece of media" is the opposite of "enjoying that piece of media." rip to you but i actually find it really enjoyable and compelling to dissect and think through the art i engage with

Likes to charge reblogs to FUCKING cast

underappreciated aspect of goncharov is its utility as a descriptor for any still-parseable fandom content whose source material you're completely unfamiliar with. you know what I'm talking about. meme about characters you've never heard of from a show you've never seen, but you're still nodding like you're so right op they would totally say that. art that goes hard but might as well be a portrait of someone's dentist for all you know. your blorbos twice removed. it's all goncharov, to me.

u ever just look at all the stuff u love and think wow i love this stuff

[loonarmuunar]

I think that it's really important for people to realize that being disabled is traumatic. genuinely. your body and brain feel like they are breaking down and wrong. you are in constant heavy stress from stuff like chronic pain. most disabled people i know have a somewhat regular emotional break down from the trauma of it all. and we are expected to just smile through it by society, to not be in the way, to not be an issue.
