I personally don't like Valentine's Day, due to its awful history, but I do like the concept of having a day to celebrate romance and your significant other. However, it should definitely be a different holiday from Valentine's Day.
I still associate February with a time to celebrate romance and love, so I will still make nice art this month. That, and pink and red are pretty colors, and I want to make cute art with those colors.
★ does anybody care about this game anymore or am I insane

💬 Just a Small Update, and a Big Thank You
Dear friends, kind hearts, and everyone who has stood with us,
When I first opened my heart to the world and shared our story, I never imagined the amount of love and solidarity we would receive. Thanks to your incredible support, we’ve now reached $12,837—a milestone that brings real light to some very dark days.
From the deepest corners of my heart, thank you.
As many of you know, I’ve lost 25 of my loved ones during this devastating war. That grief lives with me every single day. It’s in the silence that once held laughter, in the empty spaces where we once gathered as a family.
But through your help, I’ve also felt something else: hope. And that hope is priceless.
“21/Oct/2023 Before It Reached Us: The Day Our Neighbor’s House Was Destroyed” A quiet moment of fear, filmed just before everything changed.
“22/Oct/2023 The Morning After: Our Family Home in Ruins” This is what was left behind after the bombing of our home.
Despite everything, we’re still here. Still surviving. Still hoping.
But things have only gotten harder.
The war has returned, more brutal than before—and for over a month now, Gaza has been completely sealed off. No food is coming in. No medical supplies. No aid. No trade. No one is allowed to leave, and no one is allowed to enter.
We’re trapped.
🏚 We live with the fear of tomorrow, every single day. Airstrikes, drones, and the uncertainty of what might happen next. 👨👩👧 Our family is forever changed—we haven’t just lost people; we’ve lost pieces of ourselves. 📉 Basic needs go unmet—even clean water feels like a luxury now. Medicines, if they exist at all, are unreachable.
And yet…
Your support reminds us that we’re not forgotten. It reminds us that someone, somewhere, is still listening. That someone still cares. That we’re not completely alone in this.
Every message. Every share. Every dollar. It tells us: You’re walking this road with us. And that gives us the strength to keep going.
If you’ve already donated—thank you beyond words. If you can share our story again, it could reach someone who can help.
Even $5 means warmth, comfort, and a chance to breathe a little easier.
This isn’t just about reaching a fundraising goal. It’s about surviving war with dignity. It’s about believing in tomorrow. It’s about making sure my daughter grows up knowing that the world did not look away.
Thank you for your kindness, patience, and belief in our humanity. You’ve helped me find my voice—and I will use it to keep hope alive.
There’s something I need to say—something that’s been on my heart for some time.
When I first began sharing our story, I didn’t know what the right way was. I was scared, grieving, and trying to protect my family in any way I could. I reached out to many people, hoping someone, anyone, would see us. In that process, I now realize I may have overstepped, and I might have made some feel overwhelmed.
If that happened, I am truly sorry.
Please believe me when I say it was never out of disregard or pushiness. It came from a place of fear—fear of being forgotten, fear of not being able to keep my family safe, fear of watching everything I love slip away in silence.
I’m learning as I go. I’ve slowed down. I’m more mindful now, trying to share our journey in a way that feels respectful of the space and hearts of those listening.
If my words ever came at the wrong time, or in the wrong way, I hope you can understand where they came from—and I hope you can forgive me.
Thank you for seeing past my mistakes. Thank you for still being here. It means more than I can ever explain.
With love and endless gratitude, Mosab and family ♥️
Stop playing around in the rain, dude!
Hoho, what‘s that? Are you being a party pooper, Mago?
No, I just don’t want you to get wet-
Aw—
-and therefore make me wet, like you always do.
Of course, of course…
Now get under the umbrella, dude. You‘ll get sick…
Aww!! ♡
(The background)
If it's for you, I don't mind being trapped in this endless maze
This will be an analysis of how Ulrich is inspired by Alan Turing, and theorise exactly what Ulrich is planning to do in 2.8 (so this is a discussion on CN patch 2.8 not global friendly)
Alr: the immediate though that came to Ulrich since his appearance in 1.9 was that he was an Awakened from the invention of the ferroliquid, until now this was largely accepted/ considered since we did not know much outside of his job as the Lead Cryptographer.
That was until 2.8 and the reveal as the free 6* in the new gamemode!
Why isn't he based exactly on the invention of the Ferroliquid? That's because the ferroliquid was formerly invented and discovered in its state in 1963 by Steve Papell of Nasa, and yet Ulrich's Era is stated to be 2 decades before.
So why Alan Turing?
Looking at Ulrich's birthday 30th May around the 1940s one of the significant events related to Cryptography was during WW2 Alan Turing alongside Gordon Welchman designated the British Bombes to help decrypt the Wehrmacht Engima machine signals (and yes Engima is based on this cipher machine). Ulrich's character story in 2.4 with him deciphering oscioscope with Engima by the end of the character story could be a reference to this.
One of Turing's inventions was the Turing Pattern, a concept that described which describes how patterns in nature, such as stripes and spots, can arise naturally and autonomously from a homogeneous, uniform state. This can be seen in 1.9 when Ulrich told Ms Radio to "groove to the incantation" in order to transmit the Storm Immunity Incantation to team TK on Aperion without the consquences of the incantation affecting the transmitter and the reciever.
These patterns can be seen in Ulrich's signature and in his ult:
The best way to test Turing's pattern is using ferrofluid, hence why Ulrich is an Awakened Ferrofluid.
Ulrich's role in 2.8
What is Ulrich planning to do in Antractica, and how does it relate to Alan Turing's work?
2.4 and to some extent 2.7 have been alluding to Ulrich's experiments involving Storm Immunity, as in 2.4 he attempts to test if the properties of the Regulus Disk that enabled the Satellite to resist the Storm before it crashed into Regulus' era if it can be replicated by making copies of the disk, down to the same ink and manufacturing of the disk. However the original disk remained perfectly unharmed and the multiple copies were destroyed in the process.
With little information most of us were asking why was Ulrich testing Storm Immunity again even though since 1.9 the Foundation had the Umbrellas? The CN website teasing aspects of 2.8 (credit to Merui for the translations) have revealed exactly what Ulrich hopes to do:
This reveals exactly how the Satellite: (1) remained in orbit following the First Storm since we get told in Ulrich's story the satellite had been put up prior to the First Storm, and (2) made the satellite 'resistant' to the Storm since 2.8 revealed that even space to a degree was affected by the Storm. Its crash likely the result of lack of maintenance and that it wasn't 'immune' but 'resistant', crashing into the 1960s era of Regulus.
(Also this explains why just his head made it out, the disk gave him enough time to ensure his survival via saving is Awakened form)
So therefore: Ulrich plans to replicate the disk's properities over a wider range of area outside just a ship, so I spectulate this is his role in 2.8.
The poster teaser alludes to a big battle between Foundation and Manus forces, and we know since 2.2 Sophia intends to create a Storm rather than accelerate a pre-existing one. From the PV its clear the Foundation loses and Arcana is revived, a Storm is very likely to happen however it is unknown this will happen after or during Arcana's revival.
So Ulrich's role is a trail by fire, test if the disk or its properties can affect a large enough area when the Storm hits to buy Foundation/ others time to evacute from the incoming Storm.
I think we can look at Alan Turing again for what Ulrich is planning to test:
In other words, keeping a certain radius in its intial state prior to the Storm hitting it = putting a pause on the Storm in an area for a brief moment.
Summary: Ulrich is an Awakened based on the Turing Pattern, which is best shown through Ferrofluids. Ulrich's role in 2.8 is likely to create a method to briefly pause the Storm's effect in a radius and ensure more people survive the evacuation of the Storm, that in the inevitable event that Arcana is revived and/ or the Manus is finally able to create their own Storms the Foundation have at least two countermeasures in the from of a Storm delayer and the Equilibrium Umbrella to combat it.
To "die" means the ones you love can't see you anymore. Don't matter much whether you're the one who leaves or the one left behind. You never get to see each other again. Now I'm so far away from home and never returnin' again.. Does that mean I already "died" once?
