had a dream last night where I took a uquiz called “what do you serve?” and at first the questions were standard but as the quiz progressed they became more and more highly specific to me personally and the answers became more and more similar and I realised the quiz Knew me and was forcing me into being honest by giving me no other option so I tried to click out but it just went to the next question which was “are you the spider? or are you the web?” and it had an option for each but I didn’t click either so it then turned to a text box and I typed “I think I’m the fly” and the quiz paused for a while and then took me to a results page that said “you serve truth” and the description just read “what you know will kill you but you will die laughing” so like. good morning everyone I guess :/

Etaf and her family are evacuated Palestinians and need €10,000 in their campaign to enroll the children in school preferably before the semester ends.
Detailed family info, needs:
Nov 9:
The family is in Egypt but are still struggling to survive. Etaf wants to enroll her children in school again before the current semester ends. However, public schools are only available to Egyptian residents (which Palestinians aren't) and only expensive private schools are available. To continue her children's education, she needs €10,000 in her campaign (includes extra fees) as soon as possible before Dec 31.
Family info (detailed):
The family of 7 lost everything - their home, livelihood, and belongings.
Eldest sons Moataz and Moatasem and daughter Maria (7) were top students but their education was interrupted by the war.
They have 2 other young children: Adam (4) and Amira (3).
They were evacuated to Egypt in March, where they are still struggling because nobody is helping them. Governmental aid is very slow.
In late October, Etaf's husband Youssef went to Amman to help provide for his family. He is returning in early November due to expensive living costs there.
Needs:
Priority: Enrolling children in school - €10,000
Youssef's project which will help him mke a living - €50,000

today i bring you: legolas and gimli flirting while everyone else is dying in the battle of helm’s deep
“Two!” “Two? I have done better, though now I must grope for spent arrows; mine are gone. Yet I make my tale twenty at the least. But that is only a few leaves in a forest.”
“Twenty-one! Now my count passes Master Legolas again.”
“Where is Gimli?…That must be my hope. But I wish that he had come this way. I desired to tell Master Gimli that my tale is now thirty-nine.”
“Forty-two, Master Legolas! Alas! My axe is notched: the forty-second had an iron collar on his neck. How is it with you?” “You have passed my score by one. But I do not grudge you the game, so glad am I to see you on your legs!”
Fun fact: I’m autistic I’m gonna do a thing inspired by another person
oh and
