I Just Read There's Life After The Impact And I Just Wanted To Send A Message About How Much I Loved

I just read There's Life After the Impact and I just wanted to send a message about how much I loved it. I've never been able to properly put into words why I love second-hand trinkets, wandering around thrift shops looking at all the small objects that were loved once, and you articulated and illustrated the feeling so beautifully. It also made me so attached to these characters already, like I don't know if it was meant to be read this way but I felt like that promise Robin talks about is something they want for themselves but also a promise they've made to the young girl. Especially because they are in an implied post-apocalyptic setting like aughhh my heart ToT Also as someone who is in art school right now studying making comics, your layouts for each page are so so inspiring and gorgeous. Your art in general inspires me a lot but this was next level. I'm so happy I got to read it, and thank you for making it!

This is the kindest and sweetest message thank you thank you!! Truly made my day that you were able to read it!

To semi answer the part about the promise- it's purposefully ambiguous! There's Life After the Impact started out as a spoken word piece in my journal, so the "you" Robin talks about was left to reference their sister, the object or even the audience depending on how the rhythm of the monologue hits the reader

I just watched your student film and it hit me so hard. I’m losing a family member to a very debilitating disease right now and the grief has been hard to handle. Your film was so sweet and had such a beautiful message. It made me feel like everything will be okay in the end.You and your whole team did an amazing job!

Thank you so very very much for watching it! I'm so sorry for what you're going through and handling right now...the film is based on my own experience caring for terminal family members and the longterm grief that comes with it, so I understand how consuming it all is. But I'm very happy the film brought you a little peace, that's all I could have hoped it could do! Thank you again and again!

Hello Tumblr community!

This blog has been started to document and share fundraisers vetted by @nabulsi, @el-shab-hussein, and Moh'd Ayesh. We felt it would help to create a space dedicated to this documentation process.

The fundraisers we are vetting will be added to this page as well as included in our google sheet.

We will continue to reblog and share on our personal blogs, and that will not change, but this blog will help better organize these fundraisers.

Please spread this as we'd like to start using this primarily to share newly vetted fundraisers.

~ Thank you
