LETS HELP A FELLOW GAZAN ARTIST!

"Hello, my friends, this is Amr Al-Najjar, a 27-year-old from Gaza.

I am an interior designer and singer, I have my own band, and I am a theatrical and dramatic actor.

I find passion in spreading culture, arts, and music through musical artistic works in a private studio or through the theater.

I spent 12 years forming and building myself artistically and socially until I became a shining name among artists and engineers. I participated in the production of many musical and theatrical artistic works with local community institutions and international institutions.

I even established my own engineering office for decoration and design, and I used to design beautiful places and homes for every person who loves life.

But all of this was gone in the blink of an eye, in a few minutes, and in a moment of silence, it was October 7, there was nothing left, only rubble and ashes.

My dream, my passion, and my aspirations for the future were all gone.

I took refuge in Rafah, the safe area, and was surprised by the number of children who needed psychological support through music and theatre. I want to continue to provide support for them with my talents.

I hope that you will help me rebuild my home and my life, and achieve my dream- to put a smile on the faces of children and to restore artistic and musical works in Gaza.

All the musical instruments were destroyed and I lost some of my wonderful colleagues.

I need support from you in order to rebuild everything and achieve my dream.

My dream:

I need to buy new instruments and equipment. The cost of rebuilding is prohibitive, and I can't do it alone. Your support means the world to me and the kids. Your donation, no matter how small, would make a huge difference in my life. This will help me continue to pursue my passion for music and provide for my family. It would give me hope for a brighter future. Thank you for taking the time to read my story. Thank you for your generosity and kindness. Together, we can rebuild everything - music, theater, and my office - and keep the creative flame alive in Gaza."

How his house is now and how it was before being bombed (1ts picture). And where they're living now (2nd picture):

Please take a moment to appreciate his beautiful and talented voice.

Thank you very much, everyone!

people seeing the fallout of the hbomb/somerton situation and acting like academia is free of all of these issues and doesnt have its own content mill source of horror. lol. lmao

#'in academia you have to cite-' yes. and lots of marginalized people also get their research stolen by supervisors #or by others who are deemed more worthy #there's a huge problem in stem research with unreplicable results #and financing by MIC and industry actors who want one result only #in the humanities funding is very pointed and defined by political goals too #and yes publish or perish is a real thing and bad/plagiarized work isnt caught nearly as often as it should be #look. putting this all on like. youtube 'bad actors' or even just youtube is doing a major disservice to the real underlying causes #and why said 'bad actors' have monetary and structural incentive to act the way they do #and get rewarded for it #eli talks

The Entertainment Community Fund has raised more than $7 million and distributed $4.7 million-plus to more than 2,300 film and TV workers as of Friday during the strikes by the Writers Guild and SAG-AFTRA. The WGA’s strike began May 2 and SAG-AFTRA’s started July 14. “Given the heightened rate of requests for emergency financial assistance due to the work stoppage, the Fund is distributing about $400,000-$500,000 per week, compared to an average of $75,000 per week in the first half of 2023,” the ECF said in an update today. The greatest number of applications for financial assistance are from California, followed by Atlanta and New York. The Entertainment Community Fund, formerly known as The Actors Fund, is helping film and television workers in need with emergency financial assistance to cover basic living expenses such as rent, groceries, health insurance, and medical bills, as well as mental health support.

So I finished good omens season 2 last night at like 4am and idk if its cause of tiredness or cause I acc dodged every spoiler like an expert acrobats but...the final scene. I didnt see it coming. Not from a mile away.

Look I don't care that we got Nina and Maggie who are basically a mirror of Azi and Crowley. (Also so much to say how Ninas abusive relationship is basically Azi with heaven but anyway)

I also don't care that Azi and Crowley have basically been married since Eden. Nothing...and I mean nothing, physically prepared me for that finale.

Years of queerbaiting have desensitised me to hope of any kind. Genuinely even when all the signs were pointing to a confession, as soon as Azi went first and started talking bout heaven I thought that was it. Crowely is gonna crawl back into his shell.

BUT NO HE HE DIDNT. HE STILL SAID IT. and god can I say how incredibly brave that is. Like I'm so proud of him for saying ANYTHING. Like I get us as an audience think it's obvious and woulda been frustrated if he didn't and we are frustrated with how it went but. Honestly with the set up the boy was given I don't think HE for one second even remotely thought this confession was gonna go well. He had like the tiniest smidge of hope that was...of course crushed and burned. But. God I'm proud of him for saying something. And then standing his ground and not going with the man he loves even though it hurts cause going back to heaven would hurt more.

Anyway needless to say my jaw was ON THE GROUND for the kiss. Absolutely unhinged. My jaw hurt but I was so flabbergasted. I didnt know what to do with myself. It came outta nowhere in my mind even tho in traditional media it had obviously been building up to that I was still so...wow. This show. 2023. I love you.

Given this after the gift that was our flag means death. I dont know if I'll ever emotionally recover. Also I'm so not used to this idk what to do now. Do I go read fanfic? I mean..yes always but. Its canon. I almost wanna save myself for canon even though season 3 isn't confirmed. Idk if I have enough patience for that tho.

#this has been my good omens rant #yes i have so much more to say #but this is enough that maybe i can stop thinking avout it for 2 sconds to go about my day #i have work and all i will be thinking about is this gay show i... #time to play it on loop in the background so amzon will give us a new season and start paying their writers and actors #the way if i had the money i would fund this show myself. #welcome to my personality for the next couple months #i have never been more mad i am missing comic con than i am this year #good omens #good omens season 2 #good omens spoilers #spoilers #aziraphale ziraphale fell #aziraphale #aziraphale x crowley #crowely #anthony j crowley #season finale

Support my GoFundMe for Replacing my Equipment

Hey folks, I'm holding a GoFundMe right now for trying to save money for getting a laptop, software, and maybe replacing some equipment of my own for making content on my channel, Kawaiipony Productions. As well as some other small stuff like games for when I stream, donating some money to a charity, fundraiser, or anything like that to help support Palestine, commissioning people in the future, or anything else like that.

I really am in need of the money. I get that not everyone could, especially with right now. But I any bit support helps me out. It's hard trying to get the equipment I need for my channel. So if you could, please donate some money to my GoFundMe. But even if you can't (and to also those who can), please share this video around. Any bit of support helps me out. Anyways, that's all, see y'all.

another thing is i love how slapdash my earlier pages were & i hope the sentiment as we reached this finale sequence where it’s taking me an hour per page now is a sinking feeling of like, oh this guy is a Gross horror artist 😬

#if i had the funds & actor access for it id be churning out the most 80s goop gore exploitation films imaginable

#'the great thing about fiction podcasts is they're low budget low barrier to entry' #'you need like 1-2 voice actors a good writer and a good audio producer and you can tell a narrative in a serialized audiobook style' #me who cannot temper his creative ambitions: #'that's great! what if instead for my first large scale project i spent a year writing a serialized audio drama with a nine person cast' #ren speaks #unnamed podcast project #anyway with any luck the project will go to workshop with a cast in a month and then all i have to do is get add'l funding
