Verified Palestinian gofundme’s Masterlist

Rightfully so, I have gotten messages worrying if everything I post is legit (I try my best to make sure the answer is yes), but here’s a masterlist of ones that one or more people have confirmed are legit Palestinians. Most are from the blogs @el-shab-hussein, @ibtisams, @palestinecharitycommissionsassoc ,@90-ghost, @nabulsi and @palipunk

I will also be making individual posts for most of these

the most horrific part of obsession is that it is an allegory for sexual assault and how it ultimately damns the victim and holds them responsible for what happened TO them. bear is nothing short of a rapist. he takes away nikki's autonomy completely and enjoys the "benefits" of what the wish grants him; unlimited access to nikki, her mind, and her body. a man can take advantage of a woman, rape her, and essentially hold her hostage, but he receives almost no social backlash and takes no accountability. nikki is the one left behind. nikki is the one people look at with furrowed brows. nikki is the one who leaves this situation with no friends, no support, and no one to believe her.

What I love about the one wish willow in the movie obsession is that the Willow stick is not inherently evil. Its Bears wish that's evil. It's how he said it and his feelings that made the wish evil. Its him. It's all him. And he constantly doesn't own up to that or he puts the blame on someone else. All the Willow wish is doing is holding up a mirror to Bear and showing him that it's all him. It all comes from him. Nikki is like this because you took her autonomy and consent away. There are probably tons of other people who made simple, kind or ok wishes and nothing bad happened, and they probably never thought the Willow magic was real. And there are probably others who made selfish horrible wishes to because Bear probably wouldn't be the first. But it's all Bear.

The more I think about Obsession the more gross I feel.

What an amazing movie I never want to watch again.

Obsession (2026)

awful-little-goose

Bear from Obsession (2026) and Jimmy from Mouthwashing the game are more similar than you’d think.

Running away from consequences by literally pushing the woman they’ve harmed and the harm they’ve caused her out of their mind.

More horrified by the consequences of their defining action than what they did to the woman they harmed with said action. Assaulting Anya and crashing the ship, leading to the slow death of the Tulpar and the male crew (Anya being not represented in his guilt at least not directly). Snapping the one wish willow and leading to the death of his friend, not caring for the real Nikky trapped in their even for one moment.

Convinced they are not bad and instead deserving of life. Convinced they can “fix it”. Convinced they can turn it all around, have the better of both worlds. The captain title and the adoration. The girl’s love and a normal life.

The perfect every day man, the horror of the mundane. The nice guy who could never ever be a bad guy no, because bad guys behave a certain way and they for sure do not act like that!

Jimmy is only a little more honest with his brutality, more so in the fact he actively choses to commit violent acts, like crashing the ship. Send.

Bear saying that Nikki would "hate" citrine. Citrine, which is sunshine and remarkable healing. Citrine, which supports emotional well-being, stimulates clarity, and promotes creativity. A crystal which is believed to dispel negative energies. To replace them with joy and optimism. Balance. Harmony. Vitality. Everything he refused to give her.

the thing is bear doesn’t even really know nikki. they’ve been “friends” for a long time but he barely even listens to her, he didn’t even question her concern for her dad’s cancer when Ian and Sarah both immediately poked holes in not!Nikki’s story. all the shots of Nikki obscured in darkness showing not only is she Not there but also she’s never been there, bear has never seen her. only the silhouette of her life on his. and if the one wish willow could puppeteer her husk more seamlessly, he’d be satisfied with the shell of her…

I think it’s such a waste that there’s so much about Nikki we just don’t and can’t know. She was set up to be this interesting, engaging person, and yeah, you get why people would fall in love with her. But because of the story she’s in, we never got to know her, and that’s a damn shame. Obsession is a horror film, yes, but it’s fundamentally a tragedy

i love that Obsession didn't do the "oh if you'd just asked her out she would've said yes" thing.

like that kind of "you didn't need magic, you could've gotten what you want the honest way" dramatic irony can be effective and i see why a lot of writers use it for "be careful what you wish for" plots like these, but i love that Obsession is like, "no. she doesn't like you like that. there is no version of this where you end up dating her, and you need to get over it."

and nikki clearly did value bear's friendship and care about him; if he'd been honest with her about his feelings, she probably would've tried to let him down easy and remain friends - but of course, it's unlikely that he would've been willing to remain friends. bear's both too cowardly to admit the truth to nikki (which would've prompted her to reject him outright and at least given him closure), and too obsessed with her to just quietly accept that it wasn't gonna happen (which would've let him maybe start to get over his crush and move on). he's both convinced they belong together and unwilling to be direct in doing something about it, and he doesn't get even the barest comfort of knowing the real nikki loved him all along. she didn't. she liked him, but she didn't love him. and he swapped her out for a version of her that "loves" him... but doesn't like him. and he still wanted to try and make that work, even knowing the real nikki was trapped and miserable inside the shell of her body, being used by the thing he willed into existence. the tragedy doesn't happen because what he wants is within reach and he doesn't realize it - the tragedy happens because what he wants is impossible, and he refuses to see that until it's too late.

Obsession (2026) dares to ask the question: Is it okay to read a passage of your hansel and gretel incest fic out loud at the social?

starvariety

oh and another thing that devastates me about Obsession is how much nikki is judged and blamed by those around her. sarah and ian repeatedly telling bear that he shouldn’t have to deal with her, that she’s not his responsibility, that they’re worried she’s taking advantage of him. as if they aren’t also her friends, as if they shouldn’t know her well enough to notice something is off. there’s no concern for why nikki is behaving the way she is, there’s just distain towards it. she starts acting out of character and so it must all be intentional. but bear doesn’t get questioned. bear isn’t gossiped about. nikki loses all her agency and autonomy, and all she gets for it is judgment

brightorangelover

i have thoughts and feelings. all them towards killing bear.

acefuruya

also all the sympathy from viewers for sarah over nikki is so weird like sure, she didn't deserve to die at all ... but imo she was an awful friend. like here's a girl you've known forever, who's told you that she's not into a man two days before she starts acting insane over him, is clearly having a mental breakdown (at the very least), and instead of checking in with her, or making sure she's okay, you try to shoot your shot with the guy she's with??? really??? not to mention her line to bear about 'how it wasn't fair for him to have to deal with her problems'. it pissed me off so much how ian and sarah were nikki's friends too and they never actually spoke to her once the wish kicked in and instead asked bear if she was doing okay or not. what sort of fucking friends are that??? every single one of her friends let her down. obviously what bear did to her was by far the worst but the others were awful to her too.

First time watching Obsession 2026 (dir. Curry Barker) moodboard

aroacedummy

MOOD. FAT ASS MOOD.

#ngl I full body shuddered at this movie like every 20 minutes like clockwork #genuinely fucking chilling #the biggest horror is the audacity of men

vampireistic

i absolutely love how nikki is nearly always bathed in shadow (whether it’s fully in the dark or with a single light behind her with her as the faceless darkness). she’s quite literally become a shadow of her former self. no autonomy, no personal thoughts or emotions, just a carved image of what bear desired.
