to my moots/lovely lurkers: if you've been following me for a bit then you may remember my first post i made for amal and her family in late june.
in a short span of time- amal has become a dear friend of mine and her campaign has been able to receive a significant amount of traction thanks to everyone who has continued to share her messages with the world. i'm writing you all today to share amal's latest message to me:
several friends of mine have heard the same sentiment shared by other ghazzans: the rafah crossing may reopen very soon
the targeted attacks within the gaza strip are ramping up- with several massacres being executed by the israeli army in one day. this is a deliberate tactic used to conceal the true extent of their war crimes. families like amal are scrambling to raise enough funds to be able to cross into egypt. with this latest revelation of the border reopening- the time to act has never been more crucial.
so far, amal's family has raised ~44% of their goal (€13,288/€30,000)
please share her campaign as much as possible + donate if you can so they may all get to safety

amal was my inspiration to launch the art campaign boost. because of her, several families have been able to gain more visibility on this platform. please continue to give them all your undivided attention/support.
amal's message:
Hello
Can I tell you all the words in my heart?
I sent you back because I really need you
Here in Gaza, news is spreading that the Rafah crossing will return to work at the end of this month
But I did not raise enough money to leave Gaza
Please tell the whole world to help me so that the campaign reaches its goal before the end of the month so that I and my family can get out of this extreme danger.
Please do everything you can for me💔💔

finally finished immortal desires book 2! honestly i'm pretty satisfied overall, i liked a lot of what we got and rly only have like. one complaint tbh
so tldr; glad terri's keeping her memories, happy to officially pair up with both vampires, and very glad there's gonna be a book 3. hopefully without ai please please please
longer thoughts:
excited for the larger role terri might be able to have come book 3, since she was allowed to keep her memories this time around. i imagine she won't be the only one though, since the story briefly mentioned libby keeping some memories which like, on that note..
whatever happened to the whole mc's human friends plotline? at the start i thought it'd actually amount to smth but iirc it really doesn't? not even libby really gets much which is odd, considering how much we kept going back to her. it might be a book 3 thing? idk if there was enough setup in that case though
my only other critique was with seth's funeral bc like... again, i don't think they developed him enough to really make me feel much? like, i liked seth but... with how emotional everyone was in his funeral scene, i imagine they thought players would be sobbing and the mark was missed -- on me at least.
like, they had to invent a scene that we never even saw to endear him to us, during the funeral scene which shouldn't be necessary. he really needed a bigger role in this book to make this all work, maybe having him and mc train together (since they're both so new), and tag along during the little exile arc. just something tbh
-
but negatives aside, SO so happy we could finally officially be with our chosen vamp. i went w/ both bc im a sucker and i enjoyed the scenes we got. i especially enjoyed:
solely bc it feeds into gabecasmc. i think gabecas has a genuine chance in the next book and im rly excited, happy for mc and all but i rly want all three to be down and shit. idk
and final thought . witches for book 3? with the mention they got at the start of the chapter + the runes on the tree and cas' powers still needing development, i think its the most likely route. wonder what the next collection we'll get will be, maybe mc could learn spells as well? just excited omg
and real final thought fuck this outfit in specific. gabe and cas r so lucky mc is whipped bc i wouldve denied
day three of @lilyspencerappreciationweek ♡ pop culture + missing moments
in bloodbound 2, jax mentions that he and lily talk about star trek a lot! so here's them taking a break from arguing about who's the best captain so lily can tell jax about her spirk fanfic lmao
I googled "Series Entertainment" and found article about this news and the article starts with:
Series Entertainment – itself a game development company that "pioneer[s] the use of generative AI to transform imaginative ideas into unforgettable gaming experiences" – says the acquisition "signifies Series' strategy to build out its studio system to deliver a diverse catalog of different genres that leverage its world class development technology, the Rho Engine", the world’s first "AI-native, multimodal full-stack game creation platform". [X]
And here is another article
Series Entertainment, a fast-growing AI game development company, has acquired interactive fiction mobile game studio Pixelberry.
From the companies website...
So basically we told Choices we didn't want AI and they sold the company to an AI entertainment company 🤦♀️
i think gabe looks pretty good with the jacket, cas' hair kinda kills it for me but idk 😭 maybe if he dyed it a bit
more thoughts below:
i want gabe n cas to get new outfits in b3 sooo bad... especially considering how itll probably be the last 😭 one final hurray with new fits for the cast
i love my mc (duane) i gotta sneak him into more . hes my favorite little guy. need him to suffer immensely
drawing seth and libby next. i swear i like more than the main gang ... im the #1 terri stan as well
Hello 👋 This is Moamen and his family from Gaza. Please help us evacuate to safety, complete university studies, and find a source of income after the destruction of what we own. We live in difficult circumstances and a difficult life 🙏🏼 ❤️ Please share and spread the campaign because I urgently need help and the matter is urgent.

Title: Waiting for a ceasefire
by Raghad Qanou
follow her on tumblr: @rhq274
gfm campaign vetted by nabulsi
to my moots and lovely lurkers alike- i would like to highlight the latest art campaign submission as it comes from a very special person.
for those who haven't had the chance to meet her yet, this is raghad. please take some time to read her introduction in her own words:
"Hello, I am Raghad Qanou, a medical student from Gaza City. My people and I have been subjected to genocide for more than 230 days. My family and I have lived through various types of torture and inhumane conditions. This link is my only chance for me and my family to escape death and try to start over. This is not easy. But we are trying, and we would be happy to have you help save our lives and our future"
(share full original tumblr post here) | (read her full story on her gfm page)
raghad used to live a life just like us. i can't speak for all of you- but i think it's safe to bet that a lot of us here are/were college students. people who worked tirelessly to earn degrees in order to get our dream jobs. my own college years, while hard, make up some of the most joyous memories of my life thus far.
raghad has been stripped of those moments- as was the rest of her family (8 in total, 6 of them children). they have been displaced 7 times, desperately trying to stay alive so they can get the chance to truly live once more.
i strongly encourage you all to learn raghad's story on your own. she spent a lot of time and effort to write it herself while suffering through inhumane living conditions. it is the least you can do to show your support for her and her family.
the next thing: share her story with your friends and family.
and finally, for those able to contribute financially: donate! her family's campaign has been vetted by trusted sources and still need our support to reach their goal. their campaign has received very little traction and it has been active since march
the stats so far: £2,207 raised of £55,000 target (~4%)

the watermelon has become a symbol of palestinian resistance (learn about it here)
i've personally made this graphic to help boost some campaigns that have been vetted by trusted sources + noticed that the ones w art attached to it are more likely to gain traction beyond my reach with this account
if you've ever felt like there was nothing you could do to bc you didn't have the resources to donate any money- your time is just as valuable.
for anyone interested in helping out: i'm asking yall to reblog this with art of your own design that helps signal boost 🍉 causes. you don't even have to use a watermelon. there are plenty of symbols to choose from.
i am giving full permission for anyone to use this 🍉 art i've made here on tumblr to amplify the voices of gaza. you do not need to credit me in your posts, but if you use this, please reblog & like this beforehand.
also, please specify if your art is free to use by anyone if you do make something 🖤

edit: thought of more people that may be interested in making something @gaiuskamilah @palentonga @lethologicaee
edit pt 2: *also please consider making art meant to signal boost for other causes such as campaigns for sudan/congo. they are not as highly promoted here and deserve to be amplified as well
the first is purely a visual, the latter's for potential palestinian causes one wishes to uplift. both are completely free to use, credit's appreciated but entirely unecessary! hope this can help in any way
a blinking cas to compliment the blinking gabe a while back. now both vampires can blink at you. forever 🥳
more talking below:
initially i wanted to have a bit more happening but i realized i still got a ways to go so he got simplified. the eye color change was the compromise
this got finished a lot later than i wanted it to be but at least the timing's kinda good. with the latest chapter being all cas-centric and stuff
next i wanna finish my mc x cas thing and then draw some other characters (with the trio probably). then other choices books prob... until i go right back
Please only vote IF YOU PLAN TO PARTICIPATE. If you are not planning to participate, please don't vote. I really want the votes to represent prospective players. TY! ❤️
