i'm worried that palestinian fundraisers have been slowing dramatically the past few weeks because people think their goal numbers are 'a lot of money', and ignore them.
so, as the one-year mark of this ongoing genocide approaches, i'd ask you to think seriously about how much money it costs just to keep yourself alive for an entire year. $15,000? $10,000? could you live off just $5,000? for a whole year?
since losing his job and his house to the israeli bombing, mohammed iwais has been supporting his 27-person family on gofundme donations equivalent in total to about $50k USD, or roughly $1,852 per person.
i am asking you to think about the reality of what this means for a family undergoing repeated displacements, bullet wounds, other medical emergencies, and now homelessness—in an occupied country that is being brutally price-gouged and cut off from even basic humanitarian aid by military border blockades.
mohammed's fundraising goal has not yet been met, and he's going to update his gfm page to reflect that as soon as he gets a stable internet connection. until then, there's really only one question.
could you live off what the iwais family has raised so far?

Just imagined what if the madrigal grandchildren just like, talked? Like they don’t seem to really interact that much in depth before the movie. So what if the eldest children (Isabella, Dolores, Luisa) just had a convo when they were young teens and realize they are collectively having an awful time.
- they’d create a much closer, much more protective dynamic
- they still don’t quite stand up to their abuela but make cover stories and excuses to lessen each other’s burdens (Dolores complains that she hears Luisa’s stress and physical strain all the time and haggles gets her a day off on the weekends)
-instant over protectiveness when mirabel and Camilo are born. Dolores will always alert the other two if they get in some kind of trouble.
-after mirabels gift ceremony all the grandchildren huddle in Isabella’s room to comfort her.
-they have more emotional talks with each other as time goes by
-they collectively team up to keep anyone from getting hit on (Dolores uses this to her advantage to curve Mariano’s interest onto her while the others are preoccupied keeping Isabella sane)
-I also imagine mirabel would also get a lot of shit from sleezy guys? Since she’s seen as the most vulnerable. This just leads to plenty of men being hung upside down from vines or having bruises of shame from Luisa or mirabel herself getting him off her.
-Antonio is born and they all collectively get ready to indoctrinate him into their dynamic
- mirabel is still closest to Antonio but everyone else pays noticeably more attention to him
- if casita still starts breaking (these kids are still under a lot of stress man) the story is more quietly shared between the grandchildren and they work together to figure it out
-finding the vision and they all just kinda make the silent agreement to not say a word
- the rats do eventually steal the vision and lead them to Bruno which stresses him out greatly
- just all six of his nieces and nephews gathered in his tiny room in the walls
-I think to make the miracle stronger they might need to help pepa or Julieta, they it and their kids are already on good terms
- abuela gets mad at them because the end result is not constant sunshine like she wants
-mirabel still goes off on abuela because how dare she hurt her Tia and mama
- if casita fully collapsed after that mirabel would have no chance to disappear on her own because the grandchildren huddle up in their little oh shit circle
-idk I think the rest would be the same, just with dos oruguitas happening with all the grandkids

Your post about falin manifested some Thoughts in me. Seeing how such a big part of her arc was becoming more independent and discovering what She wants to do, mixed with a lot of parts in the manga where she is much more comfortable looking masculine - embarrassed about how blushy she is but not really liking makeup, enjoying more masculine clothes, that one haircut swap where she seemed really happy in laios' cut, it made me realize there's totally some room for even some transmasc falin headcanons! Or at the very least, she's definitely GNC and it would be fun to see that explored in fanfic and fanart... anyway, your in depth analysis posts have really inspired me, got me itching to create some obscure dunmeshi fancontent or analysis now!
Omg…… I’ve never fully thought about it but you’re so right transmasc Falin would go so hard… There’s also how she idolizes Laios a lot… Male older brother role model she puts on a pedestral, could play into her relationship with it. Because of the dragon I like to see her as intersex, including post-canon but beyond that I always saw her as being the more or less agender type that just goes with whatever she feels fits her better, the sort of cis by default for lack of caring about it all that much, not unlike how I consider Laios cis by default but if you dig deep enough there’s otherkin stuff going on in there… Def agree with GNC Falin.
She and Toshiro have some interesting parallels, of being passive and suppressing themselves for the convenience of others, it’s a reason why seeing her being unabashedly entranced by a bug struck him so much— himself being a bug fan and polishing his demeanor to be perfectly respectable. Because of that and including specific details like getting told "boys don’t cry" by Hien- Actually just let me link this excellent post about trans Toshiro. Transfem Toshiro is so compelling and I think pairing it with transmasc Falin would be very interesting… The gender envy of it all, the talks… Need them to go on a trip together post-canon so so bad, life changing self-discovery camping trip
I’ll be munching on this... I love it. Your reblog tags have been a delight, I’m so happy I could inspire you in any way! So looking forward to what you might make in the future
Transhuro is Beloved in this house, I sometimes forget she's not a girl
A thought inspired by this post on Toshiro getting something out of his chestplate her bra
There's this one video where Katya Zamolodchikova (drag queen) is talking about how after a function she went to shower and instead of taking off her wig she just clipped it, realised afterwards that taking it off would've been easier, but didn't because she felt ✨like a girl✨
And I'm just thinking. wow, Toshiro's final egg cracker being Falin but really there were fractures put there by aaaaall of the girls in her life lol.
(gonna use he/him below since I think it transmits the concept I'm going for better)
Imagine Toshiro, age 15, sees Hien take something out of her chest bandages for the first time. Goes, woah, that's smart actually. Copies her.
Then pauses.
Marvels briefly at the "✨like a girl✨" feeling,
But they're in the middle of work so the moment passes and they go back to work.
Takes another 11 years and probably a couple other -isms adopted from Maizuru, Beni, and maybe even Namari before the realization hits.
