In my mind disco Elysium is not mostly about class, or race, or misogyny or ableism or any one thing but rather an excellent way of delving into how they all intertwine. You can't fully talk about what it says about communism without bringing up what it talks about how it's intertwined with addiction and disability, which loops back to racism and diaspora which can be looped back to gender and queerness and severe childhood neglect and police brutality and the feeling of being left behind by the forces supposed to protect you and and and

Ironically, hard light is bad for recording sexy time.

It will highlight every pore, every vein, every wrinkle on your nutsack.

One day I will end this ring light fad. It is my ultimate side quest.

Recently, I made a bold decision: I rented a modest but safe apartment, far from dangerous border areas, and enrolled my children in a private school so they could resume their education.

-UNICEF indicated that 625,000 school-aged children have been deprived of education for an entire year, with over 45,000 six-year-old children joining this crisis—putting them at risk of missing a second academic year.-(Source)

It was a real attempt to return to the bare minimum of a normal life—sleeping in beds, doing homework on desks, washing their hands in a real bathroom.

- According to a report published by The Guardian in September 2024, 90% of public schools in Gaza and all 12 universities have been damaged or destroyed due to Israeli bombardment.- (Source)

My son Adam, who is 6 years old, went to kindergarten for the first time. He saw toys and books he'd never seen before, and he didn’t want to leave. It was his first true moment of joy.

My name is Enas Majed, and I’m a Mother of four:

Layan, 11 years old, in 6th grade

Sarah, 9 years old, in 4th grade

Adam, 6 years old, in kindergarten

Amir, a 10-month-old baby, born during this war

The war robbed Layan and Sarah of a year and a half of schooling. That time is gone—and now we’re trying to make up for it. We can’t afford to lose this school year too, even if continuing their education feels like a risk.

Trying to provide both education and shelter during a war isn’t a luxury—it’s a necessity for survival. Without it, my children’s future could disappear in the smoke and fear.

This month, I managed to cover:

Apartment rent: $700

School fees: $100

School supplies: $100

Today, I’m asking for your help to secure these basic needs for the next 6 months—covering $800 to $900 per month—for rent and continued education.

Over the past year and a half of war, we’ve spent all our savings just to survive—on food, shelter, and fleeing from danger.

All that remains is a small amount with my brother abroad, saved to help us possibly emigrate to a safe country—our only hope for long-term survival.

Your support isn’t just a donation—it’s a lifeline. A way to protect a family, give four children a chance to learn, and keep a roof over their heads in one of the most dangerous places on earth.

Your help keeps us standing. Your compassion helps us stay human.

Thank you for standing with us.

Imagine your daughter or little sister is injured and bleeding,

and you can’t even provide her with the simplest thing—like anesthesia to ease her pain—

because of war, because there’s nothing left.

You cry out to the world, begging for help, but everyone ignores you.

My name is Sami, from Gaza. And this is exactly what I’m going through now.

My daughter, Lynn, is injured and still bleeding.

My family is suffering from hunger.

We’ve lost so much, and every day is a battle just to survive.

I pray every day for this war to end. The burden, the fear, the helplessness—it’s too much.

But right now, we urgently need help to provide her with treatment.

I’m not asking for much—just please, don’t ignore us.

Your donation is our only hope.
