aaaaaaa

Lobo was actually very important to the movie as a foil to Kara in Ruthye's arc. He is not on the same level as them as a protagonist, but he needs to be established as a character early enough to give his presence some weight.

Because the real meat of his presence in the movie is his conversation with Ruthye where she says Krem killed her family for no reason, "for sport", and then Lobo calls that a reason. And then talks about how he kills for money. He's outright enthusiastic about the potential of her becoming a killer herself while Kara doesn't want that for her.

For Kara, no reason, not even revenge, is enough for Ruthye to carry the weight of taking a life, but for Lobo, who views sport or money as good enough of one no matter how superficial, revenge is definitely enough.

To every compassionate heart,

This is the third time I reach out and still, our situation remains the same: no shelter, no tent, no protection from the freezing nights.

I haven’t yet been able to gather the amount needed to return north, and my children are still sleeping on the ground, trembling with cold, while I stand helpless in front of their cries.

Now, official warnings speak of a severe weather front approaching Gaza within hours.

That means:

❄️ Heavy rain

🌪️ Cold winds

🌧️ Flooded streets and exposed areas

In the streets, rain isn’t poetic it’s the beginning of a disaster.

We only need the cost of transportation to return to our tent in the north,

where at least we have something to shield us from the sky.

If you can donate, please hurry

And if you can’t, share this plea your voice may reach someone who can.

People celebrated, thinking the bombing would finally stop, that maybe we could breathe again.

But here, under this same broken sky, the bombs never stopped.

The sound of warplanes still tears the air apart.Buildings are still falling. Families are still running. Children are still crying for food, for water, for a safe place that no longer exists.

They said “ceasefire,” but there is no peace.We are still starving.We are still afraid to sleep.

Every moment feels like it could be the last.

I am writing this in the middle of destruction, in a place where hope barely survives.

We have no food, no electricity, no medicine — only faith that someone out there still cares.

Please don’t scroll past my words.

Share this. Talk about us. Help us stay alive.

Because silence kills us too.

Our last post has lost all traction

Thank you for tolerating us this far, infinitely grateful for all the support.

I wish I didn't have to ask but we need urgent help affording the antibiotics for our kids and us and the urgent need of an otolaryngologist or I think what's called a nose-ear-throat doctor.

My 11yo has been having a terrible couple of weeks, we have confirmation with his labs and x-rays of the mold affecting him more than anyone else and he needs that appointment urgently to keep proper treatment because he has chronic rinitis so he is at risk of developing asthma.

Our goal is to afford medication, the otolaryngologist, groceries, laundromat and by doctor's orders to get rid of the mold, it is literally killing us slowly, please!!!!!

EDIT OCTOBER 3RD:

I'm very ashamed to keep asking but my youngest daughter woke up with pain, we took her to get checked by 2 different pediatricians with what little money we had, she needs surgery as soon as possible but that's another $1,100-$1,300.

I am so sorry but she is in a lot of pain.

$0/$1,300 surgery URGENT

$80/$300

$0/$1,300 mold repairs

DISCLAIMER: We're not sure if the repairs will be more expensive considering the mold has been growing into other rooms and we have rust to deal with too. We're just using the budget we got last time the repair guy came here.

Only $50 will contribute to saving my child and providing him with the basics of essentcial dippers, milk, vitamins, and medicine.please donate and share🙏🥺🙏🥺

mutual aid means no hierarchy between givers and receivers

a new mutual aid org, Bridge of Solidarity, has been established in the gaza strip by 17 year old poet yazan mohammed in response to the exploitative practices conducted by some charities and encouraged by the existing charity-based model of fundraising for gaza. according to BoS: "the western attention economy and pity economy plays a large role in who lives or dies in gaza." essentially, people need to make themselves marketable in order to receive lifesaving aid; people who are not marketable die. yazan himself wrote about the damage this can do to one's self image, which you can read here.

after trying for a year to respect his own privacy, my friend siraj was also pressured into posting images of his son's emaciated body in order to gain sympathy from westerners.

we cannot keep forcing people to do this anymore.

here's a declaration of their values from bridge of solidarity's most recent post:

Our organization is against the Western gaze. We refuse to humiliate people. We refuse to force people to take photos. We refuse to force people to take photos with our flyer or logo. People will receive aid freely without being forced to pose. We will respect people's privacy completely. Our principles include autonomy, dignity, sovereignty, mutual respect, and mutual aid.

this org will prioritize giving aid to people without phones or social media, who do not speak english, and who do not have outside support or living parents. these are the people who are not palatable to westerners but who deserve to live with as much dignity as everyone else

as of five days ago, BoS are working on a water truck delivery
