I'm Anas Basil, a recent high school graduate with dreams of pursuing a degree in e-business management and building a career. However, due to my family's financial hardships, I enrolled at Khan Younis Training College (KYTC), affiliated with UNRWA. Sadly, the war has turned the college, once a beacon of hope and education, into a shelter for displaced families, stripping it of its educational purpose.

I completed high school with a 93% average, filled with excitement about continuing my education and securing a job to support my family. But like so many others, the war has shattered those dreams.

My younger brother, Ahmad, is 14 years old and currently in the third grade of preparatory school. We’ve always called him "Doctor of the Future" because of his intelligence and natural talent in mathematics. Unfortunately, due to the ongoing war, he has been deprived of schooling for the second consecutive year. In addition to his academic abilities, Ahmad has a passion for football and used to win tournaments.

Our Life in Displacement: The war forced our family to flee to Rafah, where we lived in a tent for several months. Each day, my brother and I would wake up to fetch water, gather wood, and light a fire to prepare food. Survival became our daily task, but we never gave up hope. The conflict affected us deeply, but it did not extinguish our dreams of education and a better future.

We are seeking €29,000 to help Ahmed and me leave Gaza, continue our education. More importantly, it will allow us to support our family, who have been deeply affected by the harsh conditions and skyrocketing costs of living due to the ongoing war in Gaza.

Help Ameer and his family 🍉🙏

My name is Ameer and I am 3 years old. My father’s name is Mohammad, my mother’s name is Rana, and my little brother’s name is Taim, who is two years old.

Six months ago, I used to go to the kindergarten and play and have a lot of fun.. and learn letters and numbers.. and play the kindergarten games. My life was very sweet.. and I had a very nice room in our house with my bed and toys.

On 12/1/2023, they bombed our house and we came out injured. My father broke his leg and my mother also broke her leg. I was shot in the back. My brother Taim was shot in the face and hands. We emerged from under the rubble, thank God.

But our house was destroyed and our whole life was destroyed. My toys were broken, my room and my bed were destroyed. And the kindergarten that I used to go to was destroyed and turned into ashes.

We left our house and went to live in the tent that my father had brought us. The tent was very disgusting. It had ants, cockroaches, and insects. We started getting sick and coughing every day. The sound of the missiles from above the tent was very terrifying and scared me and my brother Taim a lot.

My mother cries every day because she does not know how to make us food, because there is no food at all, and because there are no sanitary supplies for my brother Taim when he defecates.. and she is very afraid of the sound of the Jewish missiles and says that we will all die in the tent.

I want to ask you.. I want you to help me, my father, my mother, and my brother Taim.. We want to leave the Gaza Strip so that we can continue our lives.. so that I can return to the kindergarten that I left.. and so that my future and the future of my brother Taim are not lost. Our entry into Egypt cost us 20,000 US dollars.

Please help us and donate on this page, and I will be grateful to you for the rest of my life, which I have not yet begun.. Never forget me.

AGGBHFCVHKNGGBHIJN THE SCRUNCHIE ON HIS AHOGE-

trick or treat!

[rainingsodium]

forget shipping, nothing's weirder to me than people in the gorillaz fandom trying to argue that murdoc, russel, and 2d aren't noodle's dads

they legally adopted her at 8 years old, and when you look at the early interviews they All treat her like the child she was (talking about her bedtime, trying not to swear in front of her, taking care of her, yes even murdoc).

and when they thought they lost her the band literally imploded. 2d moved to an entirely different country to try to find himself, murdoc went on a self destructive bender that ended with him secluding himself in the literal middle of the ocean (as far away from civilization as possible) and creating a cyborg replica of her, and russel threw himself off a dock (only surviving because he's a cartoon character) and literally carrying her on his back across the ocean after he found her alive.

yes The Characters don't tend to label their relationships traditionally, but they Are her parents Objectively, and it's weird to try to pretend otherwise.

A Guide to Gorillaz Art Styles: Phase 1

Nobody asked for it, but I wanna discuss some observations I’ve had over Jamie’s art style changing as I’ve researched it thoroughly in order to apply the different styles to my own work. Most people are aware of how much the art changes between phases, but naturally it evolves a lot during the phases too. One thing I think would be really interesting is to find an order in which the images were released in order to create a more solid timeline.

Early Phase 1 (1999 - 2000)

Not counting concept art, this is some of the first pieces created for Gorillaz; a lot of it is visible in Bananaz, circa 1999, some even with the older name “Gorilla” instead of “Gorillaz”. A lot of the characters are a little off-model around here, their personalities and designs not fully-formed yet. Most notable tells:

Visible in Bananaz

2D’s hair is very purple here and his skin is a little darker than later on in the phase

Russ’ skin is a bit darker and redder compared to the later more washed-out skin tone

Russ and 2D’s eyes are noticeably smaller.

Murdoc and Noodle’s hair are, for the most part, solid black or with very minimal shine

Little to no colour highlights

Mid-Phase 1 (2001)

(Group art, circa late 2000/early 2001)

(19-2000 promo art, some time after June 2001)

This is pretty much the main Phase 1 style, released alongside the self-titled album. Although naturally there’s still some experimentation, things are more consistent here as the characters are closer to their familiar looks. The images I’ve shown are actually fairly different; as the art evolution is far more fluid than just these sub-phases and you can pick out some of the notable points to place the upper image as earlier than the lower one. You’ll see this style on most magazines released in late 2000 - 2001. Most notable tells:

Far more detailed clothing; more pockets and zips and logos, etc rather than just the simple shirts and jumpers of early on in the phase

Highlights! Most notably on the faces and coats, this adds an extra dimension to the art and gives it a much prettier look

Murdoc is slightly greener. This is something of a trend

2D’s hair is still a simple gradient, but it’s looking a little bluer than purple

Late Phase 1 (2002 - 2003)

(Tomorrow Comes Today single rerelease, 2002)

(Celebrity Harvest concept art, 2003)

Since most of the hype of Gorillaz’ debut album had passed, art from this era kind of slowed down to a near-halt. This makes a lot of the changes far more noticeable as there’s less of a steady evolution here. The Celebrity Harvest-era art is probably the very peak of this, a lot of the colourless pencil art pretty much resembling Phase 2. Most notable tells:

Even more detail! You’ll see more hair lines, wrinkes, stitches and stubble here, along with more detailed fingers

Noodle’s not wearing her helmet! This is a fairly significant design change as you can see her become slightly older

Cortez (or a similar bird) starts appearing around this point, albeit only in a couple of images

Murdoc is basically fully green here

A lot of hair shine, looking a lot more reflective

2D’s hair is clearly blue in a lot of the art from this era, although there’s still a slight gradient look to it

There’s a lot of solid black shadows, Jamie clearly going for a more comic-style look

T/w suicide. Alright so: I just wanted to do a quick appreciation post for Russel. I wanna owe him his due. This motherfucker is the best Gorillaz member, and will always be the most interesting character for me. Not even gonna talk about the ghosts and demons n stuff because everyone knows that. But this man is the most loyal mother fucker ever invented. AND, his story is tragic. Bro fell in love with a girl who introduced him to the activist world. Was possibly in love with his best friend who ended up getting shot right in front of him. Punched Murdoc for sleeping with Paula in respect for 2-D. Bought Noodle a jetpack to cheer her up when she was feeling depressed because of her nightmares n shit. Bought Damon Albarn a gift for his birthday. And on top of all that, was dealing with mental issues. After Dels ascension to the afterlife it’s genuinely depressing to witness this amazing guy lose his sanity. And to make shit worse when Noodle disappeared? Which leads us to the 2010 Russel Ident. Which originally in the lore was supposed to depict Russel throwing himself into the sea in a attempt of some sort of s*icide. (Look at Russels note for ref) I’ve kinda soured on how Russel is depicted now, since I thought the mental health issues he grappled with, as dark as they were; gave an interesting look at his character and that seems to have been retired for him obsessing over food and shoes. Regardless, Russel Hobbs is the best gorillaz member. No one understands this man; and he’s needs more screen-time and appreciation from both the fans and people behind gorillaz. I’m very high. Goodnight tri state area.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!

From Kasane Teto

Alt + source of design underneath

I got the design from this video by Itsfunneh

Funneh's first fit looked like Teto, so I got inspired to make this piece.

[rainingsodium]

To be honest

I don’t get takeo’s appeal. She was a bitch the whole time. Is it really based off looks alone?

Let be real

I never seen a fan depict her correctly

[rainingsodium]

I can't deal with this Byakuya disrespect any longer.

They added TAEKO. Y'know, the girl that died in one of the third chapters of a Danganronpa game [Aka: Some of, if not THE worst chapters of the Danganronpa games] instead of BYAKUYA. One of the Survivors of the FIRST GAME, the MAIN Antagonist [aside from Junko], and the one that has a bunch of light novels bases after him, and he gets disrespected in place of this fucking wannabe?

DO YOU HAVE NO RESPECT TO THE TOGAMI NAME THAT YOU'VE BUILT UP OVER THE YEARS

Fucking unbelievable. Byakuya fans can't have shit.

.

[rainingsodium]

bfdi

[rainingsodium]

Byakuya :D

Saw another collab (with pop up shop this time?) without Byakuya AGAIN so I guess that's another thing I will have to draw in the future. But anyway. Here's the previous collab, I don't remember posting him here.

And here's the symbolism behind the flowers :)

[rainingsodium]

Where's Byakuya

being a danganronpa fan is so funny because what do you mean the next crumbs of content they give us is various characters as waiters

they’re being gay your honor
