Törmäyksiä
Veeti oli jo sopivasti puoli tuntia myöhässä tunnilta. Megaforcen osto lähikaupasta oli tärkeämpää kuin opiskelu tällä hetkellä. Pakko oli kuitenkin paikalle mennä ettei isä taas suuttuisi.
Aina senkin valitusta sai kuunnella, joku oli aina pielessä. Jos jotain teki se tehtiin väärin ja jos jätti tekemättä niin auta armias..
Ei sitä aina jaksa tehdä mitä käskee.
Saisi vain jonkun paperin että pääsis vaikka saikulle taas..
Nyt hän oli ärtynein mielin matkalla luokkaansa hiljaista käytävää pitkin, samalla kun katsoi säröiseltä puhelimen näytöltään TikTokkia. Katsomatta yhtään eteenpäin.
Yhtäkkiä hänen matkansa keskeytyi kun joku käveli häntä päin. Tai pikemminkin hän käveli jotakuta päin.
Veeti horjahti ja läikytti Megiksensä öljystä tahriintuneen hupparinsa päälle, ennenkuin tölkki putosi kolahduksella lattialle ja tyhjeni kokonaan.
"Vitun homo, eksää kattele yhtään minne kävelet??"
Veeti nosti katseensa kohti suoraan sen törmääjän silmiä. Se oli joku nuori mies, viiksivallu. Sitä katsoessa tuli mieleen joku elokuvan sotilas..
"Ai, oho. Oota tuon paperia."
Veeti katsoi kun tämä poika reippaasti käveli sopivasti vieressä olleelle vesipisteelle, otti käsipaperi automaatista muutamia papereita, ja sitten käveli takaisin.
Hän yritti pyyhkiä Veetin hupparia, mutta Veeti punastui kuin tomaatti ja repäisi paperit hänen käsistään pyyhkiäkseen megikset itse.
Toinen poika vain katsoi kummissaan, sitten hymyili.
"No siis.. voin mie siule ostaa uuven juoman tuosta lähikaupasta, jos vuan halluut."
Veeti vilkaisi häntä sivusilmällään ja meni äkkiä työntämään paperit roskiin.
"Mene jo vittuun."
"Selevä."
Ja niin tuntematon poika jatkoi rennosti matkaansa, nähtävästi ulos päin. Veeti pudisteli päätänsä ja jatkoi myös kävelyä, miettien miten Wilmassa oli varmasti jo punainen merkintä.
'Ei vois paskemmin päivä mennä' hän ajatteli, kun vihdoin pääsi kotiluokkansa ovelle. Hän koputti oveen ja odotti, hieman ajatuksissaan äskeisestä. Kun ovi aukesi, hän säpsähti ja katsoi edessään seisovaa opettajaa.
"Että sitä ollaan myöhässä taas? Nuori herra Veeti?" Kysyi silmälasipäinen mies, ei yhtään yllättyneenä.
"Minähän se, kuten aina. Ja ei se kello viel nii paljoo hei oo."
"Mikäpä on nuorella herralla myöhästymisen syy?"
"Jäin bussista, piti oottaa seuraavaa. Tiiäthän sä."
"Tiedänkö? Nyt marssippa omalle paikalles, istu, ja kuuntele."
Mies astui sivuun ja Veeti käveli käskystä hiljaa sisälle luokkaan. Hän vilkuili muita luokassa istuvia, nähtävästi tunnille oli lisätty muidenkin alojen opiskelijoita.
Muut opiskelijat hiljaa naureskelivat tälle sisääntulolle, mutteivat siitä tiuskineet.
Hän käveli satunnaisen pulpetin luo ja istahti nopeasti alas. Miesopettaja alkoi selittämään jotain ryhmälle, mutta se meni Veetiltä hieman ohi. Hän ei jostain syystä voinut lopettaa tuon oudon pojan miettimistä. 'oli sillä kyllä saatana otsaa'.
Koulupäivä oli noin puolessa välin.
Veeti ei ollut kuunnellut lauseen lausetta tuntien aikana, muuta kuin että nyt oli aika mennä ruokailuun. Ja sinne hän oli menossa.
Hän muisti hämärästi tutustumis käynniltään missä se oli.
Käytävillä oli paljon ihmisiä, eri näköisiä ja ikäisiä. Hän yritti olla katsomatta kehenkään päin.
Ruokalaan päästessään hän katsoi ymmissään miten täynnä sekin oli. Ei yhden yhtä tyhjää pöytää. Kaipa se oli pakko mennä joidenkin kanssa istumaan.
Veeti meni ruokajonoon ja otti ilmaisruokansa, maittavia raaoiksi jääneitä perunoita ja mautonta kastiketta. Sitten hän katsoi ympärilleen, yrittäen löytää äänen keskeltä jonkin tyhjän paikan.
Hän käveli hitaasti pöytien vieriä pitkin, yrittäen löytää edes yhden tyhjän penkin mikä ei ollut keskellä jotakin porukkaa.
Sitten hän huomasi, kun joku käveli hänen rinnalleen.
"Moro moro nuori herra Veeti. Tuukko istuu meidä pöytää?"
Veeti katsoi viereensä tullutta henkilöä. Hän muisti, että poika oli yksi niistä jotka olivat samassa ryhmässä hänen kanssaan. Hän hymähti tämän kommentille.
"Ois se jees jos istuu pääsis."
"Hyvä. Seuraa ni meikä näyttää tien nuorelle herralle."
Veeti pyöritti silmiään ja seurasi tätä virnuilevaa poikaa.
Poika johdatti heidät ruokalan laidalla olevalle pöydälle ja istui alas. Pöydässä oli muutama muu, joita Veeti ei tunnistanut. Varmaan joiltain muilta aloilta.
"Nii joo, meikä on Topias. Ja sää olit Veeti. Eiks joo?"
"Joo näi se oli." Veeti istui hitaasti tyhjälle paikalle.
"Täs on meikän frendit, Matias, Samuel ja Venla. Mut ei kandee yrittää iskee, se o lepa-"
Topias sai kämmenestä naamaansa.
"Pie poika turpas tukossa ja käytä oikeita ilmaisuja." Venla tokaisi katsomatta tätä päin, saaden muut nauramaan.
Topias nauroi myös ja katsoi Veetiä.
"Näätkö? Ei kannata."
"Selvä.."
Veeti alkoi syömään perunoitaan ja yritti sulkea äänekkään taustamelun ympäriltään.
Hän näki silmäkulmassaan, kun joku käveli pöytää kohti. Ei hän sen suuremmin katsonut, ajatteli että se on kävelemässä ohi. Mutta katse kuitenkin nousi kun tuo ohimenijä asetti avaamattoman Megaforcen hänen tarjottimelleen.
Taas se sama poika. Hymy huulillaan.
"Tuossa, korvaus. Kato seuraavan kerran mihin oot mänössä eiks vuan?"
Kukaan ei sanonut mitään.
"..kyllä vuan. Törmäillään."
Ja sitten hän käveli pois, jättäen Veetin hieman hämilleen. Myöskin muun pöydässä istuvan porukan. Topias oli ensimmäinen joka kyseenalaisti.
"Öö.. miks see toi sulle ton?"
Veeti vilkaisi Topiasta ja sitten katsoi taas megistä.
"Se öh, törmäs muhu aamulla ja pudotti mu tölkin. Kai tää on anteekspyyntö sit. Ei kyl hajua kuka se o."
Venla nosti äänensä kuuluviin.
"Se on Jonne, se on logistiikalla mun kaa. Se on vissiin töissä jossain siellä kaupungin isolla kone firmalla, tuli tänne täydentää tietojaan."
Veeti katsoi Venlaa ja otti megiksen käteensä.
"Väliä kuka se o. Ny se ei sentää saa turpaa.." Hän avasi tölkin ja otti hörpyn.
"Töissä? Siellä? Miten? Eiks se paikka oo tosi kysytty?" Topias älähti.
"Se on jonku sen sukulaisen omistama vissiin."
"Vittu miten onnekas jätkä.."
Muutama tunti oli taas kulunut. Veeti oli kuunnellut muutamia lauseita sieltä täältä, jotain työturvallisuudesta ja sääntöjen noudattamisesta työmaalla. Ei hän kuullut mitään, mitä ei jo tietäisi.
Mutta vihdoin koitti aika mennä kotiin. Veetiä ei kiinnostanut mennä kotiin raatamaan. Onneksi ei ainakaan tarvinnut kiirehtiä menemisessä, kun opettaja päästi pois vähän etuajassa.
Veeti käveli ulos ammattikoulun lasisista ovista lämpimään ulkoilmaan. Näytti siltä että kohta sataisi.
'Voi vittujen vittu' hän ajatteli, ja veti puhelimensa farkkujen taskusta katsoakseen sääennustuksen. Hän ei ehtinyt edes avata sovellusta, kun ensimmäiset vesisade pisarat osuivat hänen kasvoilleen.
Veetiä kiinnosti vielä vähemmän mennä kotiin sateessa.
No, ei siinä muu auttanut kuin mennä, ei vaihtoehtoja ollut.
Veeti alkoi lampsia eteenpäin, hiljalleen kovenevan sateen alla. Hän veti hupun päähänsä ja katseli jo valmiiksi edessäpäin olevaa kauppaa, joka oli vain toisen sadan metrin päässä. Jos vaikka menisi sinne istumaan ja katsoisi sääennustetta, toivoen että sade olisi vain lyhyt kuuro.
Autoja ajoi ohi ees ja taas hänen ohitseen. Renkaista lentävä sade- ja kuravesi ei auttanut kuivana pysymistä.
Onneksi jo hetkessä hän oli kaupan liukuovista sisällä.
Hän paineli suoraan ostamaan itselleen lisää Megaforcea.
Juomahyllyjen välissä hän kurotteli kylmäkaapin perälle ottaakseen uudemman tölkin. Kun hän nappasi sen, hän näki kun toinen käsi kurotti myös hyllyjen perälle, jotain toista juomaa ottaen.
Veeti pudisti päätään samalla kun veti itsensä pois kylmäkaapista, ja kääntyi kävelemään pois. Ei ollut hänen asiansa kuka lie kurottelija oli. Nyt vain maksamaan tämä ostos.
Ei hän pitkälle päässyt. Heti kääntyessään hän törmäsi johonkin. Johonkuhun.
"Hei, taas sie! Eikö yks tölkki riittänyt? Voin mie toisenki osttaa."
Veeti melkein raivostui tuon äänen kuullessaan. Hän otti nopeasti muutaman askeleen taakse, pois tämän, "Jonnen" alueelta. Oliko se sen nimi?
"Taas sinä! Miks sää seuraat mua?!"
"Seuraan? Enhän mie. Kauppaan vuan tulin ennen kotiin mänöä."
"Seli seli oot koko päivän ollu edessä!"
"Ollaan nähty kahdesti. Tää on kolomas kerta.."
"Ihan vitun sama!"
"Selevä.."
...
Hetken oli hiljaista.
He vain tuijottivat toisiaan. Veeti vihaisena ja Jonne hämillään. Kunnes hän taas nosti hymyn huulilleen.
"...jhoo. Kolomas kerta hei toden sannoo, nimi on Jonne. Mikäs siun?"
"Ei kuulu sulle."
...
"..Selevä. No. Törmäillään!"
"Toivottavasti ei!"
Jonne käveli ulos kaupasta ja korkkasi ee vitosensa hyräillen. Hän huomasi että oli alkanut satamaan. No, onneksi oli Volvo.
Hän kantoi ostoksensa autoon ja hyppäsi kuskin penkille. Ei vain vielä käynnistänyt, vähän aikaa kuunteli pisaroiden ääntä.
Muistutti sitä aikaa, kun oli kotona, rajan pinnassa. Yläkerran peltikattoa vasten kuului aina kauhea ropina sateella.
...
Ei se kyllä kauhean hyvä muisto ollutkaan. Auto käyntiin.
Onneksi autokin oli nyt oma. Hän sai keväällä myytyä vanhempien antaman auton pois, ja töistä saaduilla, pienillä ylimääräisillä rahoilla osti vähän kalliimman.
Eiku vain radiosta rokki soimaan ja menoksi.
Tai, melkein.
Jonne jäi katsomaan, kun tuo vaaleahiuksinen poika käveli ulos kaupasta. Miten sähköinen tapaus. Parempi oli kai pitää etäisyyttä.
Permatukkapoika vilkuili sateessa ympärilleen ja niin vittuuntuneen näköisenä l��hti kävelemään että Jonnea nauratti.
Kyytiä voisi tarjota, mutta Jonne veikkasi, ettei tuo ollut kiinnostunut moisesta.
Hän lähti ajamaan kohti kotia.
Rivitaloalueen pihalla oli lapsia leikkimässä kuravaatteet päällä. Leluja oli levinnyt pitkin pihaa, muutamille pihoille asti.
Jonne ajoi autonsa oman asuntonta eteen ja astui ulos, ottaen samalla ostoksensa toiselta penkiltä. Pian pihan leikkipaikalta kantautui ääniä.
"Jonne!! Tule katsoo miten syvä kuoppa me kaivettiin, siitä pääsee kohta Kiinaan!!"
"En mie nytten, pitää ostokset laittaa ja syömistä tehä!"
"No höh!!"
Jonne naurahti ja käveli ovelle, käänsi avaimen lukossa ja käveli sisään.
Oli hiljaista. Radio soi hiljaa keittiössä ja kello raksutti seinällä.
Ostokset kaappiin laitettuaan hän meni etsimään kämppäkaveriaan.
"Missäs oot? Jätkä?"
Ei kuulunut äänen ääntä. Ehkä se oli nukkumassa.
"Jätkää? Kis kis kis.."
Sitten makuuhuoneesta kuului muutama naukaisu, ja pian pieni kolmijalkainen yksisilmäinen kissa hyppelehti esiin.
"No siinähän sinä pikku Jätkä.. oliko kiva päivä? Tylsää varmaan.. laitetaan vähän syömistä.."
Jonne otti mustan kissan syliinsä ja rapsutti varovasti sen päätä keittiöön mennessään.
Hän laittoi ruokakuppiin ruokaa ja alkoi sitten tehdä itselleenkin syötävää.
Illan hämärtyessä Jonne katseli televisiota ja leikitytti pientä kissaansa.
Niihin aikoihin kun Jonne oli tänne muuttanut, oli hän löytänyt tämän pienen ja loukkaantuneen kissan ulkoa.
Omistajaa ei löytynyt, joten hän vei sen itse hoitoon ja maksoi kulut.
Hänelle sanottiin, että olisi helpompaa päästää kissa tuskistaan, vaikutti siltä että auto oli törmännyt siihen.
Mutta hän ei luovuttanut. Maksoi kaiken ja teki kaiken. Ja kissa parantui. Hän antoi sille nimeksi Jätkä, koska kissa oli yks helevetin kova jätkä.
Hallaa se teki pankkitilille. Palkka oli kyllä hyvä, mutta ei meinannut silti riittää.
Kaikki kyllä selviäisi vielä.
Ja ehkä tulevaisuudessa, tällä tiedolla ja taidolla hän voisi auttaa jotakuta muutakin, jolla ei ollut enää mahdollisuuksia, joka oli sairas ja loukkaantunut, jonkin sortin törmäyksistä.
Kielikuvat ovat outoja..

I have a few thoughts about "Love and Basketball"...
Can I cross you over for your heart?
Tumblr media
Have you ever loved a movie so much when you were younger, thought it was simply wonderful and a sheer masterpiece... only to rewatch it again as an adult and realize that it is just BASURA, BABY! Garbage! It stinks!
That is how I felt about the movie, “Love & Basketball” …
… and “Mortal Kombat: Annihilation”, because why in the hell would you kill Johnny Cage two minutes into the sequel?! He defeated Scorpion and Goro, for goodness’ sake! And what is with swapping Sonya and Raidon?! Trash!
Anyways…
For those who are unfamiliar with the 2000 movie, “Love & Basketball” tells the story of Quincy McCall and Monica Wright, two next-door neighbors in Los Angeles, who are pursuing their respective basketball careers before eventually falling for each other. The movie stars Omar Epps and Sanaa Lathan and was written and directed by Gina Prince-Bythewood. 
[Sidenote: Spike Lee produced the movie, and I am like… why?]
Back to my thoughts… the movie basically is a young love story that happens to center around the sport of basketball—because hockey is too bloody and football just doesn’t make one’s heart sing like that.
The movie begins with a young tomboy, Monica approaching young boys playing basketball in a neighborhood that her family just moved into. This is where she meets Quincy, a son of an NBA player (who is played by the All State insurance guy and the same man that Savannah’s mom said was a good man… even though he had a WHOLE WIFE). When the boys agree to let her play, she takes off her hat and reveals that she is indeed a girl because apparently, a hat is the ultimate disguise. She was like Clark Kent. 
Tumblr media
After revealing that she is a girl, the boys show that misogyny has no age, and they question if she can even play. She proves to them she can. Monica is balling and Quincy cannot handle her sauce. Unfortunately, the little boy’s ego is bruised because he sucks and he pushes Monica, and she gets a cut on her face.
Little Boy! It is not her fault that you suck. You should have had your NBA playing daddy practice more with you, but apparently, he was too busy with other things… that we will discuss later.
After Monica gets cleaned up, Quincy comes over to apologize and asks her to be his girlfriend. What in the Blueface/Chrisean is going on here?! You left me with a permanent scar and now you’re trying to be my boo?! Is it crack?
Tumblr media
However, Monica agrees—foolishly, but as you watch the movie further, you see that “foolish” is her middle name. Now, they are boyfriend and girlfriend, and they go to ride bikes. Quincy says that Monica must ride on the back of his bike because he is her boyfriend now, but Monica is a real a** b***h who doesn’t give an “F” about a ninja, and she says that she would rather ride her own bike. Quincy gets mad, breaks up with her, pushes her AGAIN! Someone needs to get this boy some anger management classes! 
They tussle in the grass and then there is a time lapse.
Now, they are in high school and guess what they are doing…. playing basketball.
Monica is playing on the girls’ basketball team, and it is obvious that she really loves the game. She has a passion for it and gives the sport her all. Quincy, on the other hand, though he loves basketball, I feel like he does it more because he admires his father and wants to be like his dad. He loves the notoriety that comes with it all.
Rewatching the movie, this is when I noticed that Monica was more into Quincy than he was into her. 
Tumblr media
For example, when Quincy is playing, Monica is there to support him and stays for the entirety of the game. However, when Monica plays, Quincy leaves a few minutes in, leaving after Monica gets benched. It wasn’t like she was going to be on the bench forever, Quincy! You could have stayed, you selfish son of a b---.
If I didn’t mention it before, I shall mention it now… Monica and Quincy live next door to one another. Their bedroom windows are literally facing each other, separated by a gate, I think. When Quincy’s parents are arguing, Quincy climbs out of his bedroom and goes into Monica’s to sleep in peace. 
Being a parent of teenager, BARS ON THE WINDOWS! I don’t care how platonic the relationship is… “Relations” are still in the word, but Quincy doesn’t see Monica “like that” even though the audience can see that she likes him. It really took Monica wearing a dress for the dance for him see her as attractive.
Tumblr media
Really? Is that all it took? You saw some ankle and suddenly, your loins get activated and you’re ready to plow?
And plow he did! Because after they leave their dates, he climbs into her bedroom and takes her virginity! Quincy, you dog you.
After doing the nasty, the two lovers and friends embark on their new romantic relationship while going to the same college. And once again… they are both playing basketball (These two are nothing but consistent… and I admire that). It is revealed that Monica is only starting because one of the players got pregnant and apparently, babies and basketball do not mix. 
Tumblr media
Anyways… nothing is more sweet than young love, amirite? It just feels so good… until it doesn’t. And it stopped feeling good when Quincy finds out that his parents were divorcing because his father couldn’t keep it in his pants and managed to get one of these harlots pregnant. 
HE IS NOT A GOOD MAN, SAVANNAH!
The news of his parents’ divorce is really taking a toll on Quincy. He and Monica talk about it on campus at night, but Monica remembers that she has a curfew and missing that curfew would get her kicked off the team. Do you think Quincy cares? Hell no! He wants her to stay back and talk with him about how his father is for the streets (he was an NBA player in the late 1970s and early 1980s… are you really surprised?). 
Tumblr media
Monica tells Quincy that she will talk to him tomorrow. For some reason, Quincy took that as she doesn’t care about him, she doesn’t love him…, and she wants an open relationship. 
Wait… what?
They are supposed to go out for lunch… or dinner… or whatever time it was to eat, and Quincy invites another girl with them. Oh, hell no! The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree because you’re a douchebag just like your sultry-voiced father. Monica gets angry and leaves the dorm room.
Hours later, Quincy is waiting outside of her dorm for Monica. He says all he did was buy that girl Burger King. 
Did you buy her a meal? Did you make it a large?!
He downplays it as nothing even though he was clearly in the wrong to even suggest it, making it seem as though he wouldn’t have did what he did if Monica was there for him.  SIR, WHAT?! She had a curfew! And this is what made me angry. He always wants her to sacrifice for him! He didn’t care about the fact that she be kicked off the team or get in trouble, everything was about him. Is this the type of movies you are funding, Spike?!
Monica goes to leave, and he grabs her to stop her from walking away… ONLY TO BREAK UP WITH HER! Why did you stop her in the first place? You should have just let her leave! I hate him so much!
[Sidenote: Good riddance, Quincy!]
A few years have passed. Quincy is playing for the Lakers in the NBA and Monica is playing overseas in Barcelona. She comes across another country’s women’s basketball team and see one of her teammates from college—the one that made sure to tell her that she was only starting because another player bust I wide open and got pregnant. They are cool now. She asks Monica how the men are in Spain and Monica is like… men? She doesn’t date. Girl, why?! Because of punk-a** Quincy? 
Monica moves back home. Quincy is engaged (to Tyra Banks) and while playing in a game, he injures his knee. He won’t be able to play anymore. Monica goes to visit him in the hospital and one can tell that she still has feelings for him… and it is the dumbest thing to witness. Girl, why?!
Tumblr media
Monica is working at a bank and after talking with her mother, Camille (Alfred Woodard)—who always had an issue with her love for basketball—still encouraged her daughter to follow her dreams.
I guess to Monica, that meant going after a man in a relationship, because she went to talk to Quincy literally that same night… a few days before his wedding!
Because basketball is a pivotal thing in their relationship, Monica challenges Quincy to a one-on-one game for nothing other… than his heart. Ugh! If she wins, he calls off his wedding. “I want to play you for your heart”. SAY WHET NAH?! Stand up! STAND UP! Those are some high stakes and the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard. Girl, you don’t have to do this. There are other men out there!
But Quincy agrees. And all I can think is “Poor Tyra” because he must not love her enough if a simple game of basketball is a deciding factor if he will marry her or not. Pathetic.
They are, and I must say… Quincy is giving Monica that work! He is crossing her over, I think there was some fouling, some breaking of the ankles; he is playing like she is Kobe. And he is WINNING! This man is like “Screw your heart! B***h, I came to win! I am a winner!”.
Quincy wins… but because he doesn’t want to lose her (or you just want someone to be obsessed with you), he chooses to be with her. 
Tumblr media
Years later, Monica is playing for the WNBA and Quincy is a stay-at-home dad for their daughter. Cute, right?
WRONG! Quincy didn’t choose her… he settled for her. Though his knee injury was getting better; he wasn’t going to play for the NBA anymore. He didn’t have a backup plan.
And how did that conversation with his fiancée go after that night?
“Hey, baby. I know we were supposed to get married, but I just played a game of basketball with my long-time platonic friend who is also my ex-girlfriend, and I won; therefore, I am going to be with her now. No hard feelings?”
Rage. All I would feel is rage.
I am sorry if this might be some people’s favorite romantic movie, but this is nothing but toxic. Quincy was no prize and displayed a lot of F**k Boy behavior. He was a spoiled jerk who felt like everyone should kiss his butt because he could dribble a ball. Monica always found it hard to move on from him, but he moved freely without a care in the world. This was not love, people! This was some co-dependency BS and I want Monica to know her worth! Where was her mother and father to steer her away from this madness?!
Ladies, do you see everything Monica did? Do the opposite of that!
What are your thoughts?
Sincerely,
B

Sujood has reached out to me to boost she and Sanaa’s fundraiser. They’re urgently trying to evacuate their family from Gaza and seek asylum in Belgium. Their previous campaign was suspended, so they have started a new GFM and currently have £1,642 out of their £50,000 goal! Please share if you can’t donate!
From their GFM page:
Dear friends,
We are reaching out to you with a heartfelt plea for help. Our names are Sanaa and Sujood, and we find ourselves in an incredibly challenging and dangerous situation.
Unfortunately, our previous attempt to receive donations was unsuccessful due to restrictions on transactions to Gaza. However, the urgency of our circumstances compels us to reach out again, this time with new procedures in place to ensure the secure delivery of your generous contributions. We are launching a new campaign because we cannot afford to wait for a long time for the restrictions on the bank account to be lifted it’s already being two months now. We are unsure if we will be able to access the funds or if they will be returned to the donors. In any case, here in Gaza, we are fighting against time. Every day poses a threat to our safety, and we cannot afford to wait. If, after some time, we are able to retrieve the previous amount, we will use it to rebuild our lives and continue the education of my siblings.
The situation in Gaza has become increasingly unbearable, and we have been left with no choice but to seek assistance from compassionate individuals like you. Your donations can make a significant difference in our lives and help us escape the dire circumstances we currently face.
This is ours story:
I hope this message finds you in good health and spirits.
My name is Sanaa Odeh, currently in Gaza, occupied Palestine. I am writing this as a plea for survival, for a future for my family and myself.
Our lives are in immediate danger, with non stop explosions everyday and every night, tanks and guns all around us, and fear as a constant companion. It is a non-stop nightmare, every minute of every day, for 6 months. Everyday is a struggle for survival. Lack of food and clean water creating a crisis of death by starvation and dehydration.
Despite the endless nightmare, we are a resilient and strong family. My beautiful parents gave everything to raise us as successful daughters and we are so proud of what we have achieved.
I work as a graphic designer and my sisters: a nurse/educator, small business owner, a medical student, and a field coordinator. Despite being on the path to rich and promising futures, it can all be taken away in any moment. We have already lost several family members, including my uncles and their entire family. There is little hope that the situation will end soon, all of us waiting for our turn next.
We are looking to seek asylum in Belgium. This campaign will help support us in covering the costs to do so, specifically in covering the evacuation costs per person. Your donation will provide us with the chance to escape the endless horror we’ve been facing for the last 6 months and give us a chance to return to a safe, normal life again, where we can once again contribute positively to society.
I understand that this is a challenging time for everyone right now, but please do not underestimate what even £5 can contribute to especially when it all adds up. It really does make a huge difference. No matter how small the contribution it can still change our entire lives.
Thank you for taking the time to read our story, your support means the world to us. Whether it is simply sharing our campaign or donating, it makes all the difference in the world to us. Your act of kindness can bring light to our darkest days and help us build a better future.
Thank you once again for all your support and kindness
With heartfelt gratitude,
Sanaa and Sujood

Prisoner Walid Abu Daqqa was martyred
When I wrote about Walid, his nick name was Milad, but now he is the father of a little girl named Milad.
Walid, with a difficult struggle, against the occupation , married the activist and journalist Sanaa Salama in 1999. In 2020, his daughter Milad was born through smuggled sperm, after which he began writing about her. From what you can find on the page (Campaign to Release Prisoner Walid Daqqa): One time, after his daughter Milad returned from a trip to the sea, he said to her over the phone,
“Next time, I will take you to the sea. She did not answer me directly, and it took her a few seconds, as if she did not want to actually shock me. She said, “No, you are no, you are not.” You have a door! I was always confused when she would ask me on the phone: Dad, where are you? I do not want to say the word “prison” in front of her so that she does not recognize this word and the negative connotations it means. "
Milad realized through visits that this place meant a prison before she could abstract it with the word prison. It means that there is no door , and that her father is in a place that he cannot leave because there is no door, and if there is no door, then there is no sea or breakfast that he brings her in the morning, and he cannot accompany her to the nursery that she insists on calling it a school, or anything else.”
*Dr. Ahmed Azm
*The painting is by artist Suhad Al-Khatib
The martyrdom of prisoner Walid Daqqa, who has been detained in the occupation prisons since 1986.
Tumblr media
Farewell, noble man.
The Palestinian prisoner, Walid Daqqa, was martyred in the Israeli occupation prisons, after 38 years he spent in captivity. Walid was arrested at the age of twenty-four, on charges of a resistance military organization, and he was sentenced to life imprisonment, and today he is sixty-two years old! He is among 27 Palestinian prisoners detained by Oslo.
Walid was an educated young man who loved life, an author, a writer, and a man of letters. He was the owner of the most famous wedding in the history of the Palestinian prisoner, when he fell in love with Sanaa Salama, who was an activist who published news about the prisoners. He admired her during a visit to the prison, and years later he married her in 1999, and at that time he forced the Israeli prison administration to marry her. A normal wedding was held, in the presence of the two families and nine of the prisoners close to his friends.
After 21 years of marriage, the couple gave birth to their child, “Milad,” via freed sperm, but he did not see her and said, “Who will take the rest of my life and give me a hug in her little hands?” But he left and did not get that hug!
Prisoner Walid Daqqa was scheduled to be released after evaluating his health condition, due to his advanced cancer, after spending 37 years in prison, but he was sentenced to an additional two years on charges of smuggling mobile phones, so that he was martyred today on the path of the noblest Palestinian struggle in history.
Goodbye, Walid. Goodbye, noble fighting man.

Still got Loke on the brain so here's a random list of faqs of my good boy. Oracle version.
He's left-handed.
Jelani was the first one to call him Lo and Loki. It was when he was first starting to talk and Loke was a bit difficult to pronounce. At first it was kind of a "low-ee" sound that progressed to Loki and then to Loke but the nicknames stuck ever since.
He's genderqueer and uses he/him and they/them. Either is fine with him.
He's queer. He used to use gay but felt it a bit restrictive and not right for him plus his mom uses queer so he went with queer. Men and male presenting are what he's attracted to.
The woman that birthed him tried to drown him when he was a week old. She took him to a river near the village and submerged him but luckily someone had stopped her. She ran away as they desperately tried to get him to start breathing again. He was fine.
Speaking of that woman, as of 2023 she is still alive and has on numerous occasions tried to approach him. She spoke to Sanaa once and asked if she could talk to him but Sanaa said that was Loke's decision. He wants absolutely NOTHING to do with her. Unfortunately he was told she tried to drown him and that caused a ton of drama and a bit of a trauma.
He bled to death once. He was run through with a bastard sword (I'd explain more but it's spoiler for something I'm currently writing).
His favorite animals are birds, foxes, and dogs.
He's afraid of cats. When he was little he used to feed some birds that hung around the village and one day he saw a cat kill and eat one of the birds.
He had a fiancé when he was 39 years old. He was killed during a raid. What no one except for Sanaa knew was that the fiancé was pregnant (trans) when he died. Obviously it was Loke's. That's a secret his mom's gonna take to her grave.
He has hemophilia, asthma, is far sighted, has seasonal allergies and is V E R Y allergic to tree nuts. Like one bite will either land him in the ER or the morgue.
Because of said hemophilia he will get random bruises anywhere in the body, his mouth will sometimes bleed, may cough blood, might bleed into his joints (apparently that's super painful), and yes, has had blood in his urine. All of these are really rare though.
Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaates using glasses so mostly sticks to using contacts.
I associate him with foxes (sable) and shiba inus.
The element I associate him with is lightning/thunder.
He's a Nordic berserker.
Speaking of, normally berserkers cannot use magic especially while in berserker mode. The only exception to that rule are the Nyota berserkers which are called arcanist berserkers. Sanaa is one of those specific berserkers. Ever since he was like 5 he wanted to learn to use magic like Sanaa does because he wanted to be just like his mom. Sanaa wasn't sure he would be able to learn what she was trying to teach him but she indulged him nonetheless.
It took years but Loke actually managed to learn how to pull off one of the Nyota's signature moves. Enchanting an arrow and firing it directly into the sky and exploding into hundreds or thousands of shards falling into the battlefield. He was also taught how to summon an element which in his case was lightning. He can have lightning wrapped around himself or a weapon. So far he's the only non-arcanist berserker to ever achieve this.
The man is stubborn as fuck all.
His chosen weapons as a berserker are a two headed axe and a bow and arrows (he chose a bow because his mom uses a bow).
During the early 2000s he and his mom enrolled in the same university to study medicine. They both graduated top of their class and did their residency at the same hospital. However, Sanaa got her license and is currently a doctor back home in Norway. Loke finished everything but went back to Oracle. He has that to fall back on whenever he chooses to retire from Oracle. He puts his medical knowledge to good use in the area of operations (the ao) and out of it tho.
Has adult separation anxiety. Technically speaking so does Jelani (only Angelus knows this but the rest suspect Jelani has it too). Neither can be separated for long periods of time. They start panicking when separated from each other for long periods of time.
His body count (like actual body count, not how many men he's had sex with) is disturbingly high. Disturbingly. High. He's very overprotective of the people he loves and will not hesitate to put two bullets into someone's skull and keep going as if nothing happened.
His favorite fruit is the mango. He really loves mangoes.
Favorite food is pizza.
Knows 13 languages: old Norse, Kiswahili, Xhosa, English, Lule Sámi, Norwegian, German, Icelandic, Faroese, Spanish, Setswana, Somali and Manyika. Basically the same languages Jelani knows.
Has a nicotine addiction and smokes. Not as much as he used to but he does.
Normally when berserkers are in berserker mode their irises tend to have a glow. However, Loke's sclera and irises turn red and no, it ain't normal. [No explanation due to spoilers].
He can sing and I do mean sing really good. He and Abigail often sing together by themselves. Abby loves to sing in front of others but Loke's shy about it. Everyone tells him he has a lovely voice though and he shouldn't feel shy about it.
If you wanna get technical about it Sanaa is his stepmother and Jelani is his half brother but he only ever refers to Sanaa as his mom and Jelani as his brother. He leaves out the step and the half. One of the worst ways you could possibly insult him is by calling Sanaa his stepmom and Jelani his half brother. Do that and you're instantly on his shit list forever, unless it wasn't intentional, just make sure you never do it again. Do it again and the ass kicking that follows will make your ancestors bleed.
He's a highly trained counter-sniper. He's also pretty good with a sniper. Trevor trained him. As it stands he's the second best sniper in all of Oracle.
He's extremely effective with any weapon he gets his hands on, he's also very accurate. If he missed it's because he wanted to.
He's ridiculously fast at drawing and firing weapons.
He's basically a human (no, he's not human, you know what I mean) lie detector. He can accurately tell when someone is lying.
He also makes an excellent double agent.
He's the only one who can tell when Jelani is lying.
According to tradition he was the next in line to be jarl. The position usually falls on the oldest child of the jarl's. However, he isn't one for such matters so he gave his position to Jelani who was, in his honest opinion, better suited for the role as he's proven to be a natural leader.
He is a very, very, very heavy sleeper. You literally have to shake him awake. Also it takes him like mere seconds to fall asleep.
He has 10 alarms on his phone cuz he sure as fuck ain't gonna hear the first 5.
He's super lazy.
He is the first and only non-Nyota to be a Warden.
He's 22 years older than Jelani.
He's the same age as his aunt Fae (Sanaa's sister).
When Jelani was born Loke basically turned into a third parent. It wasn't forced, he loved taking care of and looking after his baby brother. It was practically love at first sight.
He loves both of his parents but he's very attached to his mom.
Has three false right bottom molars. Hammer to the face.
Has two pet pigeons (Anga & Mvua) and a German Shepherd (Lyn).
Hates reading. Please don't make him read, it makes his brain cry.
Hates exercising. Has to be dragged to do it.
His ID number is 00-2144.
His favorite season is fall.
Likes the beach but the beach does not like him. He doesn't tan, he burns.
He kinda stopped physically aging. Sanaa noticed this long ago but isn't sure of what's going on so she's kept it to herself just in case.
After a certain event [can't say due to spoilers] Loke can't actually really die. He might die for a few minutes to an hour depending on the severity of the injury but he'll always come back. The only way he'll permanently die is if Jelani dies. [Again, not explaining bc of spoilers]. He'll scar like normal berserkers do though or lose limbs if not careful. No one is aware of this, not even him or Jelani.
During the "God Virus" story when Jelani loses total control because of the virus Loke sort of lost control. Sort of. [Spoilers. Can't explain yet]
He belongs to Uthorim.
Wants to have kids someday.
Is a hugger. He loves to hug. Unless the person isn't comfortable with it. Is also a cuddler when sleeping.
As a sort of "easter egg" all of Loke's au versions have all au versions of Iain try to kill him or manage to injure him in some way.
Is actually really good with kids. He often babysits for others as well as driving down to New York to babysit for his aunt Fae. Yes, it's a 10 hour drive. No, he doesn't give a fuck.
Sleeps with a shirt on. Just a shirt.
Like his brother he's into metal.

The Best Man: The Final Chapters. [12-29-12-30] I started this Thursday night and finished it on Friday. It’s such a great series. It touches on so many topics and the performances and overall production, writing, music, fashion, location are all breathtaking. I enjoyed this so damn much. What a way to end the year off. I will definitely be re-watching this. It’s funny, it dramatic. It’s for grown folk. I love it.
The love that I have for Sanaa Lathan is unhealthy LOL.

I think your tickle content is so fluffy and wholesome and Idc if it's soft or rough tickles the way you write is js so amazing either way so please know you don't have to do anything you don't want to and you don't need to get better when you're already so great at what you do!

ok so sanaa, a fennsang- a hybrid between a banded linsang(sort of like a weasel, theyre really cool) and a fennec fox- is like the protag of this world. she was my brainrot for a year but uh i kind of maybe lost that spark
(i cant find any art of her but itd be like really old<///3)
i also had cody, an african wild dog!
Tumblr media
i do not like my old art style but i love my little trans man ghjdbfjejfbr . anyways i also designed Maou/Mawu, an african moon goddess, and tried my best to do research on animals associated with her, as well as the blood moon festival. ofc, i was young and probably missed so many details, so please forgive my ignorance as i know i cant do it justice
i wrote, " in central africa, at the festival of the blood moon. Taking place every 30 years it is celebrated to welcome the Moon goddess, Mawu(Maou), from her 30-year slumber. It lasts the whole night, from 2:00 p.m. to 4:00 a.m. food and drinks are sold at stalls for a certain amount of bugs. Some bugs are more valuable than others." the bug part is my universe thing, obviously, theyre like a type of currency for most critters- another type is kelp or mushrooms, sort of like trading- but ofc its not exactly like real-life currency. another passage on a different page is " the moon parade, also called Mawoo, is a parade/festival celebrated all throughout Central africa, mainly in nigeria, where the canines gathered together to howl to awaken her(Mawu)" obv i put like worldbuilding there but i sort of feel like it isnt,, idk. i dont think i should have based it that closely on a real-life thing idk idk heres an old drawing
Tumblr media
i was so proud at the time but i wanna redraw these goobers fjejbfje. actually brb gonna do tht
hi im back like an hour later with sketches tweehee
Tumblr media Tumblr media
much better i think :)
anywayswhere was i,,,, uh. ok anyways moving on ig? sanaa's parents met at this festival and they were like yea we vibe together. jakob(linsang dad) and feechi(fennec mom) ((can u tell im not good at names fjejfn)) and they settled down in south africa to have a kid and raise it properly kind of thing. sanaa grows up alright, the kind of kid that like,,, wanders around her neighborhood, picking up sticks and rocks, throwing them at the ground from the top of a tree she climbed because you stopped looking at her for 2 seconds
so lne day she meets cody, because she accidentally threw a stick at him she wasnt looking. so they were like. yeah we r friends now :)
they grow up together, get an apartment and are ROOMIE BUDDIES when they turn like 20 cos its fun. insert angst insert angst and suddenly the town is in hysteria and THATS WHERE I STOPPED WRITING NOOOO :(
