Finally posting my comic for @ryminzine! I love Infinity Train, and Book 4 struck a chord with me in particular as an second gen asian-american who wanted to be a creative, so I tried to channel those mixed feelings into this piece.

Page one:

Slurpee in hand, Ryan walks out of a convenience store to his parked van. The back doors are thrown open. Min-Gi sat in the back, fiddling with something.

"Hey! Whatcha got there?" Ryan asks him.

"Camcorder. My parents saw 'Back to the Future' and thought of me."

"Ha, you're no Michael J. Fox," Ryan says, taking a seat next to Min-Gi. "You turn it on yet?"

"Still going through the instructions."

"Pff, who needs instructions?"

"Uh, someone who doesn't want to break the tentative olive branch his parents extended," Min-Gi says. Ryan takes an awkward sip of his slurpee.

Page two:

"They still on your case about uni?" Ryan asks.

"Less so now, but yeah," Min-Gi says. "I mean, I get it. Your only son bails on his plans of financial security to play in dive bars with his best friend? I'm still shocked I managed to talk them into a gap year. Meanwhile your parents let you hit the road after graduation."

"Well, it's different for me, you know that," Ryan says. "They 180'd from their own folks and just want us to 'do what makes us happy.'"

"And your happiness is bouncing from gig to gig with me?" Min-gi asks.

Ryan takes another sip, blushing slightly. "Yeah."

Min-Gi glances at Ryan, then looks away with a bashful grin.

Page three:

"It's not like they want me to be miserable," Min-Gi continues. "They just don't want me to struggle in life. And then I turn around and dive headfirst into something they're scared I'll regret."

He loads a tape in the camcorder, thinking back to the last time he saw his parents as he head out with Ryan.

"Heck, I'm scared too, sometimes. That I don't know what I'm doing. That I don't know for sure if we'll make it big. That we might do all this work to carve out a space for ourselves. And end up right back where we started. I just want to tell them, 'Hey, you don't have to worry about me. I'm going to be okay.'"

Page four:

"Because playing with you?" Min-Gi says, sharing a soft look with Ryan. "Makes everything worth it. I know that for sure. And my parents know that. Even if they don't get it. But they're trying. Hence-"

"The camcorder."

"The camcorder."

A stack of tapes is piled next to Chicken Choice Judy merch, posters, and pictures of Min-gi and Ryan together.

"'Take lots of videos,' they said. 'For the memories.'"

My brother, had an accident 2 weeks ago. Broke his arm and the Ortho said he needed an operation to put implant on his wrist. He is the brea

Hello, my name is Ryan and very recently my uncle had an accident where he dislocated a bone and fully fractured his wrist. The situation is getting pretty dire, as bills and other expenses (more info in the link) are piling up and insurance only partially covers the operation he needs.

My grandmother is also undergoing lab tests and needs to be sent to the hospital for observation.

If anyone is able and willing to help, please donate to the link above or send money to my kofi, which is directly linked to my paypal.

Thank you so much for your time, and please share!

As a rule of thumb, don't reblog donation posts or people asking for donations unless they've been vetted and reblogged by Palestinian bloggers. We usually go to lengths to verify this shit because we know scammers have been faking to get people to send them money, using the urgency of our genocide as bait.

It's disgusting this is what we're dealing with, but people are losing money because of some truly evil people out there.

Accounts don't just randomly spring up on tumblr without gofundmes while asking for someone to help them create a campaign. Fuck out of here with that shit.

[el-shab-hussein]

I'm also gonna stop listing the reasons why I recognize something is a scam. It's becoming more and more clear there is 1 person behind this STRING of scams and they're leaving less trails behind but it still reeks of them and their MO.

DO NOT TRUST ANY GOFUNDME OR REQUEST FOR CROWDFUNDING THAT PALESTINIAN BLOGGERS HAVEN'T VERIFIED.

At this point I'm fine receiving a bunch of inbox messages asking me to vet x y z so y'all can avoid this shit. But please have some critical thinking!

People are exploiting our situation.

[el-shab-hussein]

Reblog this post.

Whether you wanna read the whole thing or not idc.

REBLOG IT.

The person this was about deleted the 4th or 5th scam account they made and are definitely gonna make a new one soon. I don't want anybody falling for this anymore.

My friend Mona has asked me to share her story with you all.

Here's the link to the evacuation gofundme. They're very close to their goal. They legitimately only have less than 10k USD left to go before all 9 of them can evacuate.

[el-shab-hussein]

YOU PEOPLE ARE INCREDIBLE!! Since I posted this 5 hours ago, Mona's campaign has gone up by 2000$!!!

THAT'S AMAZING! Please keep donating and reblogging this post you're making a massive difference.

[el-shab-hussein]

I CANNOT BELIEVE IT! YOU BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE RAISED 5000$ TO SAVE MY FRIEND AND HER FAMILY IN HALF A DAY. We're almost DONE. 5000$ more and they will have what they need to be safe.
