My name is Osama Basil, a web developer from Gaza. Over the past 10 months, I’ve witnessed the devastation of war firsthand. My office, where I devoted myself to my work, was destroyed, along with my source of income and future aspirations.The situation in Gaza grows more difficult each day, with destruction becoming a constant part of our reality. We've lost friends, colleagues, and loved ones, leaving our community deeply scarred.But I refuse to surrender. Despite the displacement and loss, I am committed to rebuilding my career and life. The war took my job, dreams of marriage, and a chance to pursue a master’s degree in programming and web design. After fleeing to Rafah with my family, I’ve been living in a tent for months, grappling with unstable access to electricity

Thank you so much for supporting me and sharing my story.

Hello, friends. I launched my campaign in May 2024 to support myself and my family in Gaza. Unfortunately, I am still struggling to raise enough funds. As of today, the donations for my campaign have reached €4,560 out of my €15,000 goal, with very slow progress and a small number of contributions.

✅My campaign has been verified in several ways. It was directly shared on the @gaza-evacuation-funds page, which is dedicated to vetting fundraisers for people in Gaza by @el-shab-hussein and @nabulsi in this post.

It has also been verified by @90-ghost in this post and @gazavetters, with my number verified on their list as (#146).

I kindly ask for your support in donating and sharing my campaign and story. Every contribution and share helps make a difference. 🙏

🧡 I've been in contact with Osama and his family for months!

He's a dutiful man with a wonderful family and a goal to re-establish his online design business.

But first he wants to raise funds to re-establish a stable wifi connection in Gaza!

5,325 / 15,000 EUR

36% Funded

Please continue sharing! More shares = more attention.

More attention = more support and donations!

And every donation will not just help Osama and his family survive, but in turn help more families in Gaza access support from the internet if he can get that WiFi connection repaired!

Please give generously when you can and what you can. Even if all you can give is time.

And remember GFM has refunds for a year if needed. So giving is easy, and low risk.

Thank You!

I wanted to go a bit more in-depth with this piece that I did for zukka week 2023 because i got inspired to do more insane clothing details. ID in ALT.

Ramble about the influences/inspirations below:

Design inspirations for Sokka's clothing are mainly Inuvialuit and Yup'ik, with Nenets, Tlingit, and Chukchi inspiration for the tassels, patterns, belt and beadwork. I mixed these with the ornaments canon shows us used by the Northern Water Tribe, and also in Legend of Korra. I got particularly excited about drawing from Inuvialuit sources since the tassels we see in canon look like they could be inspired by this. Going beyond canon's animation-friendly colour scheme, I drew from Nenets patterns/embroidery/sashes and Yup'ik beadwork for accent colours. I think in the future I'd like to find ways to incorporate more Tlingit-style patterns since I rarely see them in fanart (which is a shame - they're stunning), but since they tend to be very big I ultimately decided to only include them as a nod in order to keep the regalia recognisable as 'Water Tribe'. I wonder if I could start using Polynesian influences as well?

Zuko's headdress and particularly the shoulder garment and beaded embroidery draw heavily from women's clothing styles of Lê Dynasty Vietnam. The other main influence is men's royal clothing in Tang Dynasty China, and patterns worn by Mongolian Khatun. Since we have a bit more to go on in canon as to what fire nation regalia looks like, I blended that in as well. I got particularly excited about the embellishments on Lê Dynasty clothes because I could give a little nod to Zuko's dragon-fire by adding more colours to the embroidery. In the future I think I'd want to make the Mongolian influence a bit more obvious... perhaps even push the envelope by incorporating some Bashkir designs, though I'm not sure how well that will go.

Non-Britons! Instead of being distracted by the pomp and fanfare of the coronation, here’s a reminder that:

The coronation was funded by tax-payer money. This same tax could have gone towards the cost of living crisis. People are starving and freezing to death as this is going on.

Protests (peaceful or otherwise) are illegal now. A lot of anti-monarchists are being arrested for simply holding signs.

Our government is currently trying to push through a revision to the Equality Act that will exclude trans and non-binary individuals.

Oil companies have made a record profit in the past couple of years. Oil and gas prices aren’t rising because of an inflation issue.

Our NHS is crumbling because funding is going to stupid projects like this coronation.

[villainessbian]

Food banks are getting cuts to fund this coronation. Like, literally, non-theoretical money that regularly goes to food banks and stuff like that and is planned for by everyone is being withheld so it can pay for a guy who wants you to voice an oath to your TV

while studying for my final i’ve decided the pyramid of cestius is one of my favorite monuments in rome. gaius cestius was, for all intents and purposes, a fucking nobody. 

dude was a mid level bureaucrat who decided “fuck it, I want my tomb to be a big fuckin pyramid.” and built it. and you know what? i can respect that. 

[lesbianshepard]

this wasn’t a trend or anything. he just decided that the egyptian pharaohs had pretty kick ass tombs and decided he was good enough to warrant one. 

[hyperactivehedgehog]

The fact that it is just standing there… at the street.. with a wall going right through it.. It’s like someone just dropped a pyramid in the city and everyone went like aw shit and then went in with their lives like nothing had happened..

But what’s even funnier is that most of the architecture was obviously build afterwards so that means that city planners actually went aw shit and pretended it wasn’t there like there’s a wall that was literally build “through” the pyramid askdjdsff

[lesbianshepard]

That’s exactly what happened! When they were building the Aurelian walls they just decided to incorporate it because

it would take too long to change the plans for the walls and build around it 

it was at the junction of two major roads

hey, the stone’s already there!

In the middle ages they saw it and went “Wow….this must be very important.” There was also another pyramid called the Pyramid of Romulus on the other side of the city so they all went “Oh my god. If that’s legendary Romulus this must be his brother Remus!” until they found the inscription and realized it was just some fuckin loser government dude.

The next time you're building a character profile, ask yourself these questions to dig a little deeper into your character's inner workings.

What do they wish they could change about themselves?

What is a negative trait of theirs they have to overcome?

What is their most hidden secret?

What keeps them from achieving their goals?

What's their most prized possession and why?

Happy writing!
