It's been two days without a single donation. My family in Gaza is still displaced, struggling without even a safe shelter 🙏🙏 Every contribution-no matter how small-can be the light that saves them from this darkness. If just 44 friends donate $30, we can reach the goal together.devtawfiko6

💔 Only 7 days left, and each day is getting worse than the one before. The danger is coming closer, and my family is still without safe shelter. ⏳ We are waiting for donations to make the evacuation possible. We still need $1,224 to reach the goal. 🙏 Any contribution—even small—can be the reason for survival.

November 7, 2020 | Paranormal (2020)

My friend was very excited about the new show on Netflix titled Paranormal, because it is based off the very popular series titled Ma Waraa Al Tabiaa (which translates to “beyond nature” or “metaphysics”—or, in Netflix’s case, “paranormal”) by Egyptian author and physician Ahmed Khaled Tawfik* Farrag (*the spelling of this name differs in the few websites I have checked: Towfik, Tawfiq, Toufiq).

According to Wikipedia (and seconded by my friend), “Tawfik is considered by many to have been one of the most influential writers of his time.” Also, “he was the first contemporary writer of horror and science fiction in the Arabic speaking world and also the first writer to explore the medical thriller genre.” [x]

“On 5 November 2020, Netflix released Paranormal, a six-part adaptation of Ma Waraa Al Tabiaa, which marked the streaming service’s first original Egyptian series.” [x] According to this show’s page on IMDB, “it’s the 1st Egyptian work that [got o]nto the IMDB top 250 list.” [x]

In the show, the main character is Refaat Ismael, “a retired doctor [and bachelor] who leads a life chock-full of paranormal experiences [and has] a sarcastic attitude.” [x]

I have watched the first four of six episodes, and it’s creepy—but in a good way? In general, I avoid horror shows/films, and so I had spent a bit of time glaring at everywhere but the screen. The first episode creeped me out the most. The second was very Egyptian-y to me in that it featured a mummy. (The second screenshot is from the second episode, featuring the “supposedly cursed mummy.”) The third episode was confusing for me ... I don’t understand that “mythical creature.” Perhaps because it is mythical I am not meant to understand it? However, of the episodes I did watch, the fourth one (”The Myth of the Naiad”) ... horrified me the most. Maybe because the horror in this episode is not of the supernatural but that of humankind ...

I hope-ish (remember, I don’t like horror) to watch the last two episodes soon.

Also, apparently the actor who plays Refaat—Ahmed Amin—is known for his comedies, so this serious(?)/horror(?) role is actually new-ish(?) for him? I mean, on IMDB, he is listed first as a “comedian” and then “actor and writer.” [x] (And I just found out that he played in The Treasure 1 [2017], too... Heh.)

Me: WHAT??

Boss: yeah... people just started mispronouncing it and I didn't think it'd catch on but...

Me: so you just thought you'd let it continue for THIRTY YEARS??

(update August 7) 2 or 1 days left to raise $459, kofi allows funds to be withdrawn faster than gofundme

"We still need $ 459 to reach our goal. If 18 kind friends donate just $25 each, we can make it! 🫶🏻🤍 Every share and every dollar counts. Thank you for standing with us. ❤️

Shared by @/90-ghost here and here, by @/northgazaupdates here.Tawfik's old GFM campaign was verified on the Gaza Evacuation Funds spreadsheet (#164) and shared by @/nabulsi here. He had to start a new one due to the old beneficiary cutting contact with him.

I want to fulfill my father’s dream of seeing me graduate 🎓 Even the smallest donation makes a difference 💙 The campaign is verified — please don’t forget me.

Tawfik is in egypt trying to continue his studies Tawfik once in past has asked for a e-sim card (a downloadable equivalent of a sim card that allows you to connect to your carrier’s cell phone network and plan, and which expires unlike a physical card) to be donated to him rather than just asking for money in order to stay connected. So I don't believe he is a scammer.

Last night was one of the hardest nights for my family in northern Gaza. They are enduring unbearable conditions due to displacement and the loss of even the most basic necessities of life.

They urgently need: 3,000 shekels (around $780 USD) for transportation and evacuation costs.
