@anas-basilgaza and his brother Ahmad are currently displaced in Gaza. Before the genocide, they were both hard-working at pursuing an education, with Anas enrolled in university, and Ahmad in preparatory school, but their studies have been forced to a stop. Now they live in a tent, having to make special efforts to gather water, wood and food. Still, they don't want to give up hope
They have a gofundme set up to help them evacuate Gaza and continue their education. This is extremely expensive, and their campaign is currently at €12,762/€29,000. You can help Anas and Ahmad continue their education: donate if you are able to, and, even if you can't, share their fundraiser so more people will see it. The smallest contributions can go a really long way in helping
Anas and Ahmad's campaign has been verified by 90-ghost and gazavetters (line 83)

They should make a "are you mad at me" that is taken neutrally and informationally every time and doesn't make everything worse when you ask it

“The world is so dreadful in many ways. Do let us be tender with each other.”

Also, I am just going to say it:
If your CEO is so inconsequential to the success of your company that he can be gunned down in the street like a dog and it has absolutely no impact on your company whatsoever, maybe he doesn't actually need to be paid several hundred times as much as your median employee.
Maybe you could get away with, like, ten to fifteen times and spend the extra tens of millions of dollars you save on something else.
Just thinking out loud.
