My Journey to Escape the War in Gaza

My name is Abdelmajed. I never imagined I’d be sharing my story like this, but life in Gaza has become unbearable. I am a survivor of the war here, and in the blink of an eye, everything I once knew—my home, my safety, my community—was ripped away from me.

The war has transformed Gaza into a graveyard of broken dreams. The buildings that once stood as symbols of life and resilience are now piles of rubble. Every corner is filled with the echoes of explosions. Every moment is shrouded in uncertainty. There is no security. There is no stability. There is no light at the end of the tunnel.

Basic needs have become luxuries. Food is scarce. Clean water is even scarcer. Hospitals are overwhelmed and under-resourced, and there is almost no medical care to be found. Every night, families go to bed hungry, praying they’ll wake up to see another day. The cost of basic necessities has skyrocketed, and it’s become a daily battle just to survive.

I’ve seen things I never thought possible—standing in long lines for a piece of bread, rationing every drop of water, and watching my people suffer in silence. I have lost everything—my home, my safety, my dignity.

Escape from Gaza is my only hope, but it’s almost impossible without financial help. The cost of evacuation is far beyond my means, and without support, I’m trapped in a warzone with no way out.

I’m reaching out to you now, in the hopes that someone, anyone, can help. I am not asking for luxury. I am asking for a chance—just a chance—to live. A chance to escape this never-ending cycle of fear, destruction, and loss. A chance to rebuild my life somewhere safe, where I can begin again, where I can find hope once more.

Any amount you can give will help me get closer to safety. Even the smallest donation will make a difference—it could be the lifeline I need to survive. If you are unable to donate, please share my story. The more people who hear it, the better the chance that I can find the support I desperately need.

Your kindness and support mean the world to me. You’re not just helping me escape a war; you’re giving me a chance to live, to rebuild, to breathe again.

Thank you for listening. Thank you for caring.

Hercules is the most visually creative of the Disney Reneissance films. If not any Disney film ever.

The three Fates sharing an eye.

Hades’ flaming hair. 

The various designs of the mythological monsters and titans.

The diverse faces and body types of all the minor characters.

It’s a very visually engaging movie.

I lost most of my family. I'm afraid to lose my son too 🥺 .

I am not begging.

We lived in beautiful homes 🏠, wore elegant clothes 👗👔, ate delicious food 🍽️, and enjoyed the most wonderful places 🌅.

Then, everything changed on the 7th of October. Our house was destroyed 💔, we were displaced 🏚️, and we found ourselves without food, water, or warm clothes ❄️. We suffered from epidemics and famine.

I am Noor Al-Anqar, a graduate with a Bachelor's degree in Chemistry 🎓, a mother of three children 👩‍👧‍👦, and my greatest ambition now is to provide food 🥖, drink 💧, milk 🍼, diapers, and clothes 👕 for my children.

I was forced to launch a fundraising campaign to help my family in light of the lack of income and rising prices 📈.

I ask you kindly, if you are able to help me and my family, I would greatly appreciate it 🙏.

Thank you 🌷.

comfort check

if you're sitting in a chair or laying in a bed this is a reminder to get comfy. sometimes when I sit in the chair I just sit in it but I don't really get comfy. I think this is a niche thing to remind people about but being comfy is really nice

Maddie being introduced as this literal ray of sunshine and then being the first to beat along to Piltovers turn to martial law. Her interactions with Vi mystifying her as “one of the good ones.” One of the good Zaunites. She was always discriminatory toward Zaunites, they just didn’t make it overt at her introduction. The turn to fascism and discrimination can start with anyone. Including a literal ray of sunshine.

yet another thing I find wrong with season 2 is just how many times it feels like Jinx and Vi end up coming together just to fall apart.

In the first season it's basically perfect because they spend most of the time apart after they get separated, only to come together like 2 times and each time it's tense and uncertain as to whether they'll actually be able to work things out. That's part of what makes their dynamic compelling in season 1, the fact that you're never certain of how a given interaction is going to go wrong, just that you sense it will because Jinx is well, a little unstable, and desperately hoping it doesn't. Another good thing this does is that it maintains the tension of wondering how their relationship is going to end up for the entire season (it ends with Jinx declaring that they can never go back to their former relationship and pretend nothing has changed, essentially choosing to be enemies).

In season 2, they come back together from literally trying to kill each other WAY too quickly imo. They spend like most of act 2 as basically a family, like, they're back in each others lives almost exactly how they would have been had jinx not done any of the murdering. It just feels, a little early. Considering the set up of 'here's to the new us > blows up a building' being where they started this season, it feels, strange and off-putting for them to essentially make up this early, only for Isha (an unrelated plot device of a character) to die and force Jinx into 'everyone I love dies around me' mode and retreat away from Vi, only to come back in the very next episode. Only for her not to return for good because she instead decides to fake her death. It ruins the momentum of their weird tense relationship that was the bread and butter of the show to me. The show wants to have its cake and eat it too, because it wants the heartwarming family reunion but also a bittersweet complex ending but doesn't earn any of these things.

I'm also now realizing that ultimately the 'go to Viktor to try and heal our dad' plot feels like a roundabout. We still end up at Vi looking over at Warwick in the finale sad in a sort of 'oh dad what have they done to you' moment, but it doesn't hit as hard as the original realization. Feels like I would understand her doing that more if it were the first time she was seeing him and still hoping he'd recognize her. It would hit harder than how it is now where you find yourself screaming 'oh my god girl learn to let go of your dad, you've mourned losing him like thrice now this is getting old'

My take on this is that they needed to build up their lives outside of each other (make Vi's pit fighter era her self-exploration time. make her have a plot, not just a montage, outside of her relationships with either Cait or Jinx. something plot significant. look I'm not a writer) so that her and Jinx's eventual reconciliation would hit harder (and in this version Jinx doesn't fake her death at the end). Maybe have them not come together for Warwick earlier, but rather have them come together in the finale (or final couple episodes anyway) when they find out about Warwick and have to work together because duh.
