I don’t know how TSSM managed to do it, but somehow they not only gave us one storyline that tackled the topic of addiction in a way that was understandable towards their younger targeted audience, but they gave us two.
And just whenever people talk about the representation and portrayed attitudes towards mental health issues in other adaptations of Spider-man I’m just reminded of how much immense respect I have for TSSM for both deliberately choosing to outright address such mental health issues like addiction and being able to do it with such sensitivity and acknowledgment of the underlying gravity of such issues that they end up doing it well.
I want to bring another fundraiser to your attention. In the link above, Fadi Ayyad has told the story of his family, who lost their home in Northern Gaza and have been forced to evacuate to the south.
Fadi is a high school student who wishes to graduate and further his studies. And his father, Ayman is a well-respected and known Gazan educator, who has lost his source of livelihood during this war.
Their lives have become a constant struggle for survival, from trying to secure what food and water they can to the constant bombardment and raids by the Israeli military which threaten to take their lives at any time.
Their situation is dire. They require $35,000 to evacuate their 8 family members and after 1 month they have not even gone over $1000 yet.
Help this family reach their goal and evacuate to Egypt, where they can get back a semblance of stability and safety. Donate if you can, and please share!

The Thing is a perfect film and I want to kiss it with tongue. I could watch it another 30 times without getting sick of it. Do you think those guys ever explored each other's bodies? No, and that's what killed them.
Have you ever felt like wishing for death?
I am the one who wished for death so that he would not see the specter of torment and the bitterness of regret
I sit on the ground under a tent and look at my children starving and suffering from pain and fear while they are in front of me shivering from the cold and the smell of death that is everywhere and I cannot do anything as if I am chained in front of them a lifeless corpse and tears welled up in my eyes from grief over their condition.
I wrote this hoping to find a heart that beats with mercy to extend its hands to save us
Is there anyone who will answer?

on a road trip all day today so i made this
I am Suheila, Shadi's wife, and today I write to you with a heart full of pain, hoping you might be the light we desperately need. Our life was simple and full of love until the war tore everything apart. 💔
Shadi was once a fisherman, providing for our family with the catch of the sea. We lived peacefully, but that all changed when the airstrikes destroyed everything. 💥 His boat, our only source of income, was obliterated, and with it, our future seemed to disappear.
Since that day, we've lost everything. Our home was bombed, and now we are left with nothing but rubble and fear. 😢 Shadi is the only one holding everything together. He cares for me, our five children, and his elderly mother, "Um Shadi," who tries to support us despite her age. But we have nothing left to give.
Every night, as bombs fall around us, Shadi holds our little daughter, Mira, trying to comfort her in the midst of the chaos. The fear in her eyes breaks my heart. 😔 I watch my children live in constant terror, and it hurts more than words can express.
We are running out of hope, and I don’t know how much longer we can keep going like this. We need your help more than ever. Every donation, no matter how small, can make a difference. 🙏 It can bring us food, shelter, and safety. It can give us the hope we’ve lost.
Please, don’t let our family suffer alone in this nightmare. Help us survive, help us rebuild. Your kindness can save us from this pain. ❤️

Hello, my name is Waseem Abusafi from Gaza-Palestine. and I am 34 years old, I have a 3-year-old son named Qais, and my wife Amal Asqoul is 27 years old. I worked in the field of accounting for companies and institutions for 12 years. My wife worked as a psychologist in international organizations.
The recent war has turned our lives upside down 💔. Our area, infrastructure, and entire community were destroyed 🥲. We lost many family members, most dearly my eldest and youngest aunts, along with their children and grandchildren, in an airstrike at the same time and place. They were innocent civilians with no connection to the war. We were forced to relocate from northern Gaza to the south, and have been displaced multiple times in search of safety.

What did my child Qais do to deserve starting his life between the alleys of a tent in extreme heat? There is no water, electricity, food, or medicine. We are barely surviving, and it's extremely difficult 💔🇵🇸. The place where we live houses 2 million displaced people in an area of just 5 square kilometers.
