DONATIONS FOR GAZA
As you probably know, the situation in Gaza gets worse every day. At this stage, every donation, no matter how small, might make a difference between life and death for someone trying to escape Rafah.
Donate as little as 7$ today and you get a sketch or a small illustration of yourself, an animal, a friend - whatever it is that you want.
You can find the full spreadsheet of families here: Operation Olive Branch
or you can donate to one of the randomized gofundmes from here: Gaza Funds

something that snagged in my mind through the most recent rewatch of leviticus:
SPOILERS AHEAD OKAY I WARNED YOU
.

So during Hunter's funeral, after Naim has had the ritual performed on him, Arlene brings him a plate of food, saying:
"They have those sausage rolls, the one you like. They have pizza, too, but it has olives on it."
"I took the olives off."
Now, the thing that snagged in my head was the metaphor of an olive branch, an olive branch as a symbol of extending the peace, of being willing to start fixing a problem.
Arlene handing Naim this plate of food is, in her mind, a peace offering. An attempt to make this shocking, devastating betrayal a little better.
Naim sees straight through this. The pitiful attempt to stitch up the wound that's still gaping wide open. No amount of prayers or oliveless pizza is going to fix anything that happened between them.
Olives...
