"We try to live lives full of purpose, of service and usefulness to others. What purpose are our lives if we don't help Heba Muraisi and Kamran Ahmed stay alive? We will all have failed so badly. Please, please help stop this."

8 panel (kinda. sorta.) comic
Pees 1-thru-7: a lil flat fuck hamster, being a flat fuck. They are flat-fucking on the ground with a flat fuck face. Rach panel has a single word: "EVERY. DAY. IS. THE. SAME. OLD. THING."
P8: a splash image taking up the majority of the page. At the very bottom on grassy ground, a realistic animal skull. In the distance, clouds obscure hazy mountains. Leaves whip about in the wind.
Leading dwon from the previous panels to the skull is the following:
Until
