The war stole her home, her safety, and her normal life, leaving her to face famine and slow death.
Today, she desperately needs your help to survive with dignity to have food and medicine for her family.
Your donation could save her life

This is Reem’s mother—a Palestinian mother who has endured the full pain of war: bombings, hunger, and fear.
Every day, she tries to stay strong for her family, even as life has become harder than ever…. 1/2

I'm thinking about making a one-page TTRPG for the One Page RPG jam 2025!!!

and then making my own solo adventures for it

and THEN putting those on TheGameCrafter as printed booklets plus accessories (character sheet pads, and/or cards, maybe dice)

and THEREFORE making a meeeeelion dollars

I regret nothing, excluding all the things I wish I hadn't said or done

the licensing fees would be insane, but maybe a "legally distinct goblin version of link" would work

hmmmmmmm, hahahah, damn that might be really fun too!

"no matter how dark
that storm gets overhead
they say someone's watching
from the calm at the edge

and what about us
when we're down here in it
we'll have to watch our own backs

but if you do see that golden light
that it shakes from its fiery eyes
go on and catch it
while you can"

-Songs: Ohia

randomly feeling the desire to draw some legend of zelda fan art (I wanna draw link!), but I don't got time for that

hmmmmmmmmmmm, might do it anyway

What if things didn't suck as much? Really makes you think.

My Window, by Daniel F. Walthall: There is a window next to my bed, on the second floor, and my dog loves to lay near it, and look out, over the yards. Sometimes my cat will join him, and look out too. At green grasses and blue sky, and tall trees of many kinds, at the lonely traffic, at the wandering deer, and all of the raindrops, plus every dancing snowflake. But only sometimes. And when I notice this, I can't help but join them both, and look out too. Which is perfect, because it's just an ordinary window, so all three of us must be close, to each other, for all three of us, to see.

A typewritten poem on cream colored paper by Daniel F. Walthall that reads: "Dull and Shining Copper - love rewires your brain. the only problem, is that sometimes the electrician, has to suddenly stop, right in the middle of their work, and cannot finish it, even if they wanted to. and then years could go by, a lifetime, before the crossed wires, and fraying edges, are replaced with, new, shining copper."

A typewritten poem on cream colored paper by Daniel F. Walthall that reads: "WANDERER - I've been a wanderer, in the short grass, stopping frequently to search, and scan the tiny clover forests, for a lucky four-leaf. I found one when I was just a child, but then I was distracted, for a very long time by all the noise, and didn't even think to search, at all. Or didn't even believe, that I deserved one, or maybe even forgot the existed. But now that I'm older, and I've finally pushed back the fog, I can see the clovers so clearly once again. So I am stopping frequently to search, almost every day. I still have not found another, mythical four-leaf, but I saw a rose, and now I am a wanderer once again. I wander and I wonder, can a rose have four-leaves too?"

A typewritten poem on cream colored paper, by Daniel F. Walthall, that reads: "do you remember that old and towering oak?, that we found on the overgrown path behind the house? I can close my eyes and still see it, open my heart and still feel it, quiet my mind and still hear it. that tree seemed utterly alone, and it didn't even seem, to feel the sunlight, surrounded and blanketed by shade. but I bet it is still there, waiting, breathing, being, despite it all. or maybe it was slain, cut down to make space, but I will never walk back there, and check to see, because in my heart and in my soul, that tree, the gnarled and forgotten oak, will never die."

The Crescent Moon by Daniel F. Walthall: you deserve the crescent moon, in every shade that you desire, in every moment, at every morning, and late into every night. especially when it's dark, but even when it is light. and if it dims even a tiny amount, then you deserve to have the sky, on the brightest day, of every year, in every shade that you desire, in every moment, at every morning, and deep into the late twilight. and if you wish to, to make new shades, that you desire, that no human being has yet seen, that no eye of ours has ever dreamed. I will be here, to let those many shades, you made, dazzle my eyes deep into the late twilight. for all time.

A Sad Day by Daniel F. Walthall: "today is not the happy day, today is a sad one, but tomorrow will be better. and the day after will be a sad one, but the day after will be better. the days beyond I simply can't see. well, maybe if I tried really hard to, but, today is a sad one, but tomorrow will be better, and the truth is: I've only got the energy to, focus on today. at the moment. sorry about that, but I'm certain that tomorrow, will be better

scientists (me) have agreed that everything sucks. primary question now is, which of these is our reality?:

everything sucks in all directions (infinite void)

everything sucks in ONE direction (we are inside a black hole)

everything sucks in TWO directions (all tubes, okay this one could be fun)

Keep Her Safe by Daniel F. Walthall: "please keep her safe, from any storm, because I love her, it's because I love her, all because I love her. please keep me going, over the mountain, so I can love her, it's so that I can love her, all so I can love her. please, can you? can you please? please keep her safe. it is the only thing I ask, it is every thing that I will ever ask, during every storm, because I love her, it's because I love her, all because I love her."

Keep Her Safe

Just for today,I’m hoping to raise $50—will you be part of that?

This post is giving you a pleasant and relaxing feeling

honestly I think it's just my average view on life is a bit negative, so "it's a bit off" for me is like "yup, that's normal" LMAO!

Photograph of my floor covered in waterlogged prints, zines, equipment, and promotional material.

Hey guys my basement flooded today despite taking extreme precautionary measures, and I lost hundreds of dollars worth of con materials. If you find it in your heart to throw me a few bucks to rebuild all my hard work I'd really appreciate it ko-fi.com/sennamatic
