[Images: art focusing on the Morningstar family from Hazbin Hotel, made to look like photographs or posters.

The first image shows Lilith grinning at the viewer with her pale eyes glowing against red sclerae as she narrows them with furrowed eyebrows, her hair billowing around her while she raises her hands near her face with claw-like gestures. She is wearing a deep red high-necked top with golden buttons and a jagged cut-out over her chest as well as long dark gloves. One glove leaves the fingers and palm of her hand uncovered to reveal long black nails while the other glove appears to turn a brighter red as it covers her hand, though long pink nails are attached to each finger. Lilith’s name is in all capital white text at the bottom but spelled with three Ls as “Lillith” instead of two. There is grain over the artwork and a shadow over Lilith’s face to create a dark atmosphere.

The second picture has the title of “Dampnare” in all capital gold and pink text. The background is dark green with a silhouette of a tree, leaves falling as a snake slithers and looks toward an apple. In front of the background, Lilith is posing with her hand up as if to grab the apple as she looks toward the scene with a smirk. She is dressed in a highly elaborate outfit consisting of a dark green leaf-patterned blazer with shoulder pads and fingerless gloves over a dark blue high-necked top with a cut-out over her chest and intricate gold detailing on the sides of her neck and from her chest down to her waist. A semi-transparent green skirt with a leaf pattern hangs down, revealing Lilith’s dark undergarments and thigh-high garter socks before gathering at the bottom and becoming opaque. Around Lilith’s waist hangs a boa of multiple large pink flowers matching those framing her face, which is white with purple, orange, and green tri-tone eyeshadow, dark purple lipstick, and spots like freckles painted on her forehead and cheeks in multiple colors. Dark purple flowers sit around her large red horns curving up and forward from her head, her extremely long hair wrapped partially around said horns and pulled up into an elaborately coiffed style before unspooling at the top to fall onto the floor around her to reveal eye-like designs in colorful pastel stripes within her otherwise blonde hair.

The third image has the title of “Temptation” in all capital blue text against a black background as it shows Lilith from behind. She is looking back over her shoulder with a smirk as she brings her dark hand back to pull her hair forward over her other shoulder, revealing her bare back as a dark gloved hand in a black and red suit jacket reaches in from the bottom of the image to unzip her red dress. Said dress has eye patterns matching the texture of the horns curling back from her head and the scales of the red snake curling over Lilith’s arm to look at the viewer. She has blue flowers in her hair and purple flowers near her waist as petals and green leaves fall around her. There are multiple red lipstick marks on Lilith’s back between scratches that look to still be bleeding.

The fourth image has flat colors and looks like a staged portrait as a young Charlie smiles awkwardly while posing in a pink and blue princess dress with poofy sleeves and a bell-shaped skirt, a dark green-blue sun hat atop her head with large pale orange feathers and with several flowers and foods attached to the pale orange ribbon including a sunflower, purple grapes, and two apples. She is standing in front of an archway covered in multiple flowers in varying colors and sizes as Razzle and Dazzle stand at her sides. Razzle is grinning toothily with narrowed eyes while holding both arms at the back, and Dazzle is grinning cheerily with both hands clasped in front.

The fifth picture has Lilith and Charlie at an outdoor area with large columns as they smile at the viewer, the latter looking to be a toddler as she sits upon her mother’s knee while Lilith is seated on a wooden chair with leafy decorations and orange cushioning with eye designs along the sides. Lilith has small red horns curling back from the top of her head among her long flowing hair, and she is wearing a low-cut orange and pink dress with multiple eye and tear designs on the bodice and skirt as well as a pink shawl with similar tear designs and ornate golden and red jewelry upon it. Charlie has her hair pulled back into a messy ponytail as she has on a pale pink sleeveless dress with a frilly hem, pink flats, and a pale red bow tie.

The sixth image is brightly-colored and shows Lilith in profile view as she looks ahead with a warm grin and a faint blush, several large orange and purple flowers in her arms with golden flowers directly against her chest. She has on a semi-transparent blue outfit with golden decorations and faint eye designs matching those on the red horns curling back from the top of her head and those in a circular pattern in the background that appear to be watching her.

The seventh picture has a red ribbon in the top left corner with golden capital letters proclaiming it to be a “Hell School Prom” as it depicts Charlie grinning at the viewer with Seviathan von Eldritch, who is holding her as she leans up against him with one leg kicked up behind her. Seviathan is wearing a green formal outfit consisting of a tailcoat and a top hat, the latter having fangs under the brim and eyes along the crown. Charlie is wearing a strapless red-to-white gradient dress, dark horns curving up from the top of her head.

The eighth picture shows Charlie and Vaggie grinning as they stand together in front of a blue, white, and golden castle with several eye designs, the surrounding shrubbery and the railroad tracks under the couple’s feet heavily reminiscent of Disneyland. Charlie has one hand up at the side of her face while Vaggie has one hand upon her hip as she poses with her back slightly arched and her head tilted upward, and both women have their other arms around each other. Charlie is wearing blue denim overall shorts over a black pinstripe sweater and black and white slip-on shoes while Vaggie has a large red ribbon tying her hair into a ponytail as she wears a pale pink crop top with red ribbons on her chest and elbows above frilly sleeves as well as pale yellow shorts with blue cuffs, a red and blue belt, torn pink stockings, and sneakers in blue, pink, and white.

The ninth image has the Morningstars posing together for a portrait, Charlie in the center as her parents stand tall at each side. Lilith is wearing her usual dark dress with a black tiara and curved red demonic horns, Lucifer has on his typical red and white suit(though the snake around his hat appeared more purple in his original design), and Charlie is clad in a long dark red suspender skirt and a white high-necked top with a flowery pattern and a jabot attached to her chest with a black ribbon. Lilith is smiling crookedly with a half-lidded gaze at the viewer as she raises one hand up to her chest, Lucifer is grinning toothily with half-lidded eyes as he casually holds up his cane, and Charlie is looking to the viewer with wide eyes and a small, uncomfortable smile.

The tenth and final picture has the Morningstars posing together with the von Eldritch family on a red carpet as lights flash on each side from what are presumably cameras, the backdrop black with a pattern of a stylized apple with two stars. Lucifer is grinning toothily at the viewer as he leans forward on his cane while his shorter daughter stands beside him and looks up at him with a wide grin and one open eye. Lilith is posing beside Charlie with one hand on her hip as she looks over to Lucifer with a small frown, her pale eyes with red sclerae narrowed slightly. Bethesda and Frederick von Eldritch are hugging each other and smiling at the viewer as their children stand to the side, Helsa grinning crookedly with one hand at her hip while Seviathan is grinning with narrowed eyes as he holds his hands behind his back. Lucifer is wearing his usual red and white outfit, Charlie has a black ribbon tied into a bow at the side of her short hair as she wears a pale red bow tie and an off-the-shoulder red and black dress with inverted crosses along the skirt, Lilith is clad in long black gloves and a low-cut sleeveless red dress with a snake pattern and a slit up the side of her skirt, Bethesda has on long black gloves with green fingers and a low-cut black dress with a green mouth opening at her waist, Frederick is wearing a primarily black and grey suit with green mouths opening at his shoulder and in the sides of his top hat, Helsa is clad in a bright pink buttoned dress with a neon green skirt underneath and matching green fur at her collar and sleeve cuffs, and Seviathan is dressed in the same suit with a tailcoat from the prom picture but with a green trilby instead of a top hat.

Newsflash!!! If your doctor says your baby has "gonads" that need removal or that there is a genital "deformity" these words are code for intersex baby. REFUSE UROLOGY SURGERY FOR YOUR INFANT UNLESS THEY CAN PROVE IT WILL EFFECT YOUR BABY IN THE NEXT YEAR. sometimes urethras are blocked or there's legitimate impact to functionality. Otherwise almost always surgery can wait till your child is old enough to understand what is happening. As someone who went through pediatric urology- you don't want them operating unless it's 100% necessary. The procedures are gruesome and traumatic (and often not anesthetized) most people use it as a first resort when surgery should ALWAYS be a last resort especially for minors.

"For good" meaning that you had a reasonable expectation that you wouldn't be moving back in with your parents later. For example:

If you moved to college but still returned to your parents' home in between terms, that would NOT count as "for good."

If you moved out expecting it to be "for good" but later had to move back in due to extenuating circumstances (e.g. you lost your job or your housing), count the FIRST time you originally moved out "for good."

Hello,

For those who don’t know me, my name is Alaa. I’m a husband and a father from Gaza, and I’m so grateful to be raising two beautiful children, Maram, our lovely 6-year-old daughter, and Ayman, our energetic 3-year-old boy. We are also eagerly anticipating the arrival of our third child, a baby girl, who is due in just a couple of months. My wife is seven months pregnant, and while we’re filled with excitement, we’re also feeling the weight of the challenges ahead.

One of the things we’ve been discussing is what to name our new daughter. We wanted something that feels similar to Maram, but we’re still undecided. There are so many lovely names that could be perfect for her, and we’d really appreciate any suggestions or advice.

That said, choosing a name is the least of our worries right now. The reality of preparing for our baby’s arrival in the middle of a war is overwhelming. We have no baby clothes, no mattress, and with the current war, basic necessities like diapers and baby formula have become unaffordable for us.

I’m thrilled and thankful that we’re expecting a new addition to our family, but as a father, the fear and worry about how we’ll care for her, along with our two other children, are constant. We are displaced from our home, I’ve lost my job, and our savings have run out. Every day, I wonder how I will protect and provide for my family in these impossible circumstances.

This is why I’m reaching out to you. We want to give our daughter the best start we can, but we can’t do it alone. If you’re able, please consider donating to our GoFundMe campaign or sharing our story with your friends and family. Any support, no matter how small, will make a world of difference to us during this incredibly difficult time.

✅️ My campaign is vetted by @gazavetters, my number verified on the list is ( #252 ) ✅️

Me: what do you want to sing tonight (before bed)?

Daughter: be-ah

Me: bear?

Daughter: no be-ah

Me: ... Bear?

Daughter: No, BE-AH (not any clearer)

Me: (guessing) .... Belle?

Daughter: yeah, Belle (better, still kinda sounds like bear)

Me: so Beauty and the Beast?

Daughter: no, Belle. With her basket

Me: Oooh... (proceeds to sing the opening song from Beauty and the beast to the best of my recollection)

Daughter: No mom, you missed a page

Me: I'm doing the best I can

My daughter is a fantastic little creature. Her logic is impeccable.

But for God's sake, who taught her the sound of music's "Do, Re, Me" and why is she singing it to herself at the top of her lungs alone in her crib when she should be sleeping?

Pets are very commonly overweight. And very commonly the reason given will be ‘because my parents feed them more than they’re supposed to, and they won’t listen when I tell them to stop’.

And I sympathise. I understand. Parents are hard, especially when they still think of you as ‘their kid’ and not ‘grown adult with autonomy’. Getting your parent to change their behavior is very difficult.

My two cats have a scoop in their bag of food, and they get one scoop each for dinner. It’s a very simple system: 1 scoop 1 cat. If I notice they’re getting a bit podgy then I make the scoop a bit concave. If they’re looking a bit light, I give them a little extra breakfast. But dinner is always the same, never more than one scoop.

But last night I watch my mother (the very same woman that scolded me for my weight since I was ten) decide to feed the cats for me while I finished washing the dishes.

The cats follow her, mewing pathetically, as she carries the food bag to their bowls. And I watch, as she’s talking to me and making eye contact, while she gives one cat a slightly heaped scoop of food, and then the other.

And then, dear reader, she replaces the scoop into the bag, as though it’s the most natural thing in the world, and proceeds to give each cat an additional handful of food.

I was astounded. I was politely mortified that you just increased the cats’ meals by at least 80%. No wonder they’ve been podgy!

We had a polite but firm discussion about how that is a measured scoop in the bag, and have-you-been-feeding-that-much-the-whole-time, but I do not think she has listened. I think I will need to gently ban her from feeding the cats.
