Buffy the vampire slayer was sometimes a bit fun. we weren’t certain if the show was going to continue so we killed off the protagonist in our season finale and then when we continued we had her friends bring her back from the dead though in the wake of her resurrection she seems incredibly depressed, what her loved ones might attribute to “i died” trauma, and then we have a monster of the week musical episode where a demon that makes everyone sing and dance until they combust comes into town and the protagonist reveals to her friends in a musical number she can’t help but pour her heart out during that she was happily in heaven before she was pulled out and now being alive on earth again feels like hell and everyone just has to watch in horror. I used to listen to the Buffy musical numbers over and over and my friend would be like pleeeeeease listen to phantom of the opera or Les miserables instead. And for that I’m sorry.

The OP Gofundme is down, I haven't been able to find another link, but hopefully there will be one up soon.

I was talking with a friend who had also adopted several Gaza fundraisers a few days ago. They told me how one of the Palestinian families they were fundraising for managed to collect and save enough money to evacuate to Ireland. I had donated to that family before, and I was glad I did my little bit to help them achieve that. But at the same time, my heart hurts for the many Palestinians I know who also need to evacuate, but cannot manage to do so.

Ibrahim (@aburakhiaibrahim) needs an eye surgery and also treatment for his severe depression after all the trauma he has gone through. Meanwhile, his parents suffer from chronic illnesses. He also hopes to reunite with his sister in Canada. Both require money - which Ibrahim does not have, especially since his family consists of 28 people.

There have been reports in Gaza suggesting that the Rafah Crossing may open soon - a crossing that means access to family reunification and vital medical care, especially since Israel has banned multiple INGOs (including MSF) from working in Gaza.

This is to emphasize, again, that your donation is vital. Your donation is life-changing. Your donation is life-saving. Below is Ibrahim's Paypal and GFM. Please consider donating if you are able to.

Vetted! Their GFM is vetted by @/gaza-evacuation-funds, #336 on vetted fundraiser list by el-shab-hussein, nabulsi, and MohAyesh, #802 on Butterfly Effect Project vetted list, shared by @/nabulsi, shared by @/el-shab-hussein! But Paypal reaches them quicker!

"You have to acknowledge that some of the smartest researchers in the world concluded that negative emotions kept people on platform longer than positive ones. And so the algorithms that control your media diet, if you’re not examining them, you just need to know that things can be bad and they can be not as bad as some very effective researchers and coders want you to believe they are so you will stay glued to your phone. The things that give you hope and the things that will make the world better are growing in places you cannot see and you should put the phone down and go join them, because they need your help.
