I'm here to tell you a few things. There are many haters and liars around, but I want to thank @el-shab-hussein who refuted all these false claims. However, You can follow up on this matter through this link click here
First, I'm the one who makes these crocheted pieces, and this is indeed the business card. You can see it on this page and contact me there as well. Click here
It was under our business name. But I lost the pieces and the business phone when my house was bombed.
That's why I'm here; I need your help and support. There are many hateful people here who wish us harm and genocide, but I'm striving for my dream and trying to help my family. These are some pieces of my work from before the war. I hope you can help and support us so we can continue living and alleviate our suffering.
Also, if you wish, you can follow the page on Instagram and view many more pieces of art.
My name is Adham, and before the war, I lived a simple but happy life. I worked as a driver with my own car, earning an honest living by taking people where they needed to go. It wasn't a luxurious life, but it was enough. I was proud that I could provide for myself and look toward the future with hope.
Shortly before the war began, I got married. My wife and I dreamed of building a peaceful life together, but those dreams were shattered almost overnight.
The war took everything from us. Our home was destroyed, and the car that was my only source of income was lost. In a matter of days, I went from being able to support my family to having nothing.
Today, my wife and I live in a tent. Even the small piece of land where our tent stands is not free, and the landowner asks us to pay rent every month. We struggle every day to find food, clean water, and the basic necessities of life.

As if losing everything wasn't enough, I was seriously injured during the war. A bullet struck my chest, and it still remains inside my body. I need surgery to remove it, but the operation costs far more than I could ever afford. Every day I live with pain and uncertainty, knowing that I cannot pay for the treatment I need.
I also had a fundraising campaign in the past, but unfortunately, I never received the support that was collected for me because I was deceived by the person managing the campaign. After that painful experience, I am now searching for a trustworthy person who can help me create and manage a new fundraising campaign so I can finally receive the support my family urgently needs.
I am asking for your help with humility and hope. Whether you can help by creating a fundraiser, donating, or simply sharing my story, your support could truly change our lives. Your kindness will help us cover our basic living expenses, pay the rent for the land where our tent stands, buy food and other essentials, and, most importantly, give me a chance to receive the surgery I desperately need.
From the bottom of my heart, thank you for taking the time to read my story and for standing with my family during the hardest time of our lives. Your kindness gives us hope that we are not alone.
No donation is too small. If you are unable to donate, sharing my story or helping me find someone who can safely organize a fundraising campaign would mean the world to us.
I kindly ask you to support my brother, Adham, and his wife during these incredibly difficult times. They are facing severe hardship and struggling to meet even their most basic needs.
If you are able, please consider donating to Adham's fundraiser. Any amount, no matter how small, will make a real difference and help my brother and his wife get through these challenging days. If you are unable to donate, please consider sharing his fundraiser with others who may be able to help.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your kindness, generosity, and prayers.
This will be a quick bullet point list of all the moments I noticed that could link to the themes of poverty/underprivilege in Haikyuu. This will only cover s1-s3 and No ova s. Purely based on the anime as I didnt have time to cross check with the manga but I probably will at some point and maybe tweak things. Feel free to add in the comments anything I've missed or better yet, make your own list! Id love to read what others picked up on that I missed.
Season 1 & 2
Hinata's school had no male volleyball (VB) men's team.
Karasuno has no coach and their gym is very basic ;Nekoma, despite being in a 'similar position' to them still has two coaches, matching uniforms, and a gym (seen in s4)
Karasuno's basic training/practice matches all exist due to individual efforts rather than a supported system that maintains it.
In the first official match, we see the Karasuno girl's team lose. Unlike the boy's team, they had no coach, no seen teacher supervisor, and most players lacked the discipline for VB. The girls VB team could be a reflection of what the boys VB team would have been had they lived in their circumstances and had no individual support (Takeda).
Karasuno's first opponent, despite also being no powerhouse, still has matching shoes/bags etc. Karasuno only provides the most basic uniform.
Their coach is someone who 'volunteered' to be there and has to work two jobs to make time for this. School does not have enough staff for every club.
Ushijima's speech highlights the idea that 'only a good environment can truly make something special flourish'. Although a good environment can significantly boost one's growth, dismissing those who aren't from 'perfect soil' is a narrow mindset that stems from privilege. You can definitely also look at this speech from a biological point of view as it highlights the flaw in this idea even more. In nature, the 'weeds' still have their purpose and biodiversity is important to ecological strength, people just dismiss this due to their own bias. (This argument isnt fully scientifically sound but please let it slide to any agricultural pro s reading this!).
Shiratorizawa's building and facilities contrast directly to Karasuno's own, limited training area.
Karasuno seems to have a limited amount of coaches (Maybe even just the one) for their players. Yachi has to make a poster to help fundraise.
The other schools are also shown to have larger/more VB gyms than karasuno.
Season 3
Shiratorizawa are used to nationals
They have their own cheer squad
Karasuno's cheer seems to be made? Last minute, in comparison Shiratorizawa students all seem to know what cheers to do when, and they have a 'school song' of sorts.
Shiratorizawa means white swan, but their symbol seems to a white eagle. Either way, both birds highlight power, grace, and a sense of superiority compared to the scrappiness of Karasuno's crows.
End credits show family members and community members (Saeko, Shimada, Takinoue) gathering money during their jobs to send the boys to nationals.
I ended up having the least to say about season 3 since its purely focused on a match (and since I forgot to take notes) so this will most certainly be added to later. However, despite their being less non-Vb related material, the symbolism of crows vs eagles throughout the match, and Karasuno winning, contributes greatly and consistently to the theme of poverty. Id like to talk about Miyagi prefecture and Sendai City, but im unfortunately not a pro at economics and can't tell if Karasuno is just a reflection of a less funded school, or its a broader thing.
If you think I've missed something BIG please let me know. Some things I've left out on purpose to talk about them later (e.g., cats vs crows).
Hello my friends,My name is Bilal Ahmad.I am reaching out to you as a citizen of Gaza who is suffering from severe injuries and critical health conditions that threaten my life every day. I sustained a serious injury to my eye and urgently need another surgery to save me from the risk of permanent blindness.
In addition, I have a disability in my left hand. Most critically, I suffer from a severe abdominal injury that has greatly damaged my intestines, leaving them unable to function properly. My condition continues to worsen, and the danger to my life increases with each passing day.
Given the current situation in Gaza, it is no longer possible for me to receive the complex medical treatment I urgently need in a safe and complete manner. After God, my only hope is your support and kindness.
I humbly ask for your help. Please be the light of hope that allows me to reach Egypt and receive the medical treatment I desperately need in its hospitals so that I may recover and regain my health.
Please hear my voice and give me a chance to receive treatment and a humanitarian opportunity to pass through. Even a small donation can make a difference and help cover my medical care.
Thank you in advance for your generosity, compassion, and support. I am deeply grateful for any help you can provide.
if i had a nickel for every time a scheming manipulative goofball who procrastinates their job work took in a homeless orphan with people-pleasing tendencies and never-ending optimism, then indirectly put them on the same level/playing field as one of the antagonists, iād have two nickels. which isnāt a lot but itās weird that it happened twice, right?

Hello friends, I thank you very much for your continuous support, but right now I am in urgent need of you and your help. We are now in the holy month of Ramadan, which requires a lot of expenses, and there has been a significant rise in prices.
I also need to pursue my dream after losing everything. I need your support greatlyāI need more than $1,500 to pay my university fees so I can receive my certificate and apply for scholarships.
You can find the images below the post.
Therefore, I am in great need of your help. I support my family, and at the same time, I am trying to achieve myself and continue my education.
You wake up to discover that your partner has left the mafia and may or may not be dead. (great)
Because of this your boss calls you for a brief meeting. You leave to go drive your car toā oh your car has blown up! (wonderfulā¦)
You grab a PM Taxi to the bosses office and once you enter you discover your bossās creepy af ability has started MIMICKING YOUR (ex) PARTNER. (what the fuck)
ā¦ (naturally you crash-out)
You get the day off and spend the rest of your day drinking antique wine in ācelebrationā. (Totally)
it is honestly amazing how much of writing and editing is just. logistics. like... do i use a name here or a pronoun? if i move this dialogue tag to the middle of this line and break it in half, does the end of the line hit harder that way? what if i move the tag to the front? what if i remove it entirely? ...wait, whose point of view am i in; can i reasonably say this character is appalled, or must i say they look or seem or sound appalled? is this a deliberate action or a step-removed one; is her hand closing on his shoulder, or is she closing her hand on his shoulder? environment environment environment, we need to break all this dialogue up with some narration, the scene is coming untethered. what! are! they doing! with! the rest of their bodies that are not hands! fuck fuck fuck FUCK i forgot we covered this two chapters ago and now i either need to cut this whole chunk or find a reason to reprise the conversation from earlier. name or pronoun? name or pronoun? name or pronoun? move this clause around in this sentence? oh i'll add this phrase-- nope, never mind, past!me added the same phrase two lines down. okay, if i add too much environmental narration it's going to take away from this bit, but not enough and it won't feel grounded. what if i move this to its own line? where the FUCK are their hands?
This blog has been started to document and share fundraisers vetted by @nabulsi, @el-shab-hussein, and Moh'd Ayesh. We felt it would help to create a space dedicated to this documentation process.
The fundraisers we are vetting will be added to this page as well as included in our google sheet.
We will continue to reblog and share on our personal blogs, and that will not change, but this blog will help better organize these fundraisers.
Please spread this as we'd like to start using this primarily to share newly vetted fundraisers.
So I used to be a teacher, right? And for the last month Iāve been working corporate. And wow. I have never before been so directly confronted with the wealth gap.
In teaching, we are all poor. My teammates and my administration team and I. We all are budgeting like crazy and hoping that the school board will approve a Christmas bonus. Everyone is in relatively the same boat. However.
Many people that work for the company (myself included!) have second jobs because they canāt afford to live on their salary. The CEO and all the other important people have so much money that they have private planes and second homes and live out of state so ācommuteā by flying in every so often.
They claim to be a company that cares. How can you claim that when the people that make the money for your company are struggling to survive? While you take that money and spend it on a lake house and a downtown apartment for when you visit (but is nicer than where most of us live full time).
The only way for people to exist with that obscene amount of money is to take advantage of the people that work for them. And it is completely normalized.
I think itās fine if you donāt like Akito for all the shit she did (I personally donāt like her), but if I see one more brain dead person online say she, ādidnāt *deserve* her redemption arc,ā personally, I will be crashing out.
The story of Fruits Basket is about change. The mangaka basically TELLS you that you donāt have to forgive Akito, showcased that Rin herself says she could never forgive her for what sheās done to her.
Genuinely I do think the people who say sheās evil and didnāt deserve redemption and deserved to rot in the catās cell,
1.) hate any type of mental illness/trauma response that isnāt uwu cutesy
2.) lack critical thinking skills, and also empathy
3.) would probably call you disgusting for being so depressed that you havenāt showered in 2 weeks
A personās trauma is never an excuse for their behavior, so I donāt think you can excuse her abusive behavior at all. She defenestrated and also stabbed someone, plus the loads of abusive she put on everyone from a young age.
That doesnāt mean that she canāt decide to change for herself. She didnāt change for you to like her. Bad people are allowed to change for the better, and you donāt have to forgive them for their past if you so choose.
Besides the fact that saying she deserved to rot goes against everything Fruits Basket is about, I think it also really feeds into this stale way of thinking. That āonce youāre bad youāre always badā, and when you push that narrative it actually will cause bad people to just never change because society is telling them they canāt, so why would they even put in the effort?
Anyway, never thought Iād defend Akito. I just need people to like experience empathy, critical thinking, and media literacy for 5 minutes because yāall piss me off.
