My son has been paralyzed and needs your support through your donations, as they give him hope for a new life and treatment abroad. He is living in difficult, tragic circumstances due to the lack of treatment, food, and essential daily supplies.
Since October 7th our lives have been completely destroyed.. Our house and everything we own have been bombed.. And now Gaza is a very dangerous place to live.. We want to get out of it but we need your support through your small donations.. It makes a big difference in our lives and gives us hope.
I thank you very much and I hope you help me with treatment and getting out with my son Louay….😢🇵🇸

today marks the second month since little ibrahim was injured by israeli forces
i cannot say thank you enough for everyone who has supported him since that time. today i ask again that you keep him in your mind and hearts as he goes in for his fourth operation since then. he has spent the last weeks with his family in the cold and the rain due to how precious hospital beds currently are.
here, i’ll once again defer to the words of my dear friend @shadi90:
I carried my wounded child to our tattered tent, where there is no warmth, no safety, and no comfort—only pain and despair. Imagine this: a little boy, covered in wounds, lying on a worn-out mattress in a fragile tent, while I sit beside him, helpless and unable to ease his suffering.
Doctors have told us that Ibrahim needs advanced medical care outside Gaza—care that is unavailable here. But with poverty and a relentless blockade, we can’t get him out without your help.
the promise of a ceasefire and the reopening of the rafah crossing has made medical evacuation for ibrahim more of a possibility than ever before but shadi and his family are still left to cover steep medical costs and whatever price the egyptian government will feel it needs to extort from refugees.
if you can spare anything today, please consider donating.
i pray that today will end with positive news for ibrahim’s recovery and i pray every day that israel and its allies will never know any comfort for what they have done to him.
Welcome to another round of W2 Tells You What You Should See, where W2 (me) tries to sell you (you) on something you should be watching. Today’s choice: 하이에나/Hyena.
ALT
Okay, I’m assuming I just convinced a lot of you by that poster alone. But just in case, here’s a trailer along the same lines!
Hyena is a 2020 Korean drama about two lawyers who get into a relationship under false pretenses, end the relationship, and then still have to deal with one another in their professional lives, while also uncovering massive corruption in the halls of jurisprudence.
This is absolutely one of those shows where, if this is the kind of thing you like, this is a strong example of that kind of thing. You know the beats it’s going to hit and the turns it’s going to twist, so you’re just here to watch the rest unfold. It’s not really a courtroom drama; while there are court scenes, they’re few and far-between. Most of it is about their lives outside of court: preparing for cases, negotiating power dynamics, and working for some shady-ass rich people alongside a cast of delightful supporting characters.
It’s no great work of art, but it’s a lot of fun, and it’s surprisingly more complicated than it appears at first blush. It’s also not a huge commitment, as shows go – just your standard Korean block of sixteen hour-long episodes – so here’s a shortish set of five reasons I think you should give this a trial (get it? trial?) run.
1. Just fuck that pretty boy up
This show knows that women want one thing, and one thing only: Ju Jihoon in mild to moderate distress.

I love this tall drink of water in everything I’ve seen him in (just wait until the day I finish my rec for Kingdom!), and this is no exception. I imagine that the entire pitch for this show was, what if we put Ju Jihoon in sharp, well-tailored suits and have him menaced by a bunch of beautiful professional women 10-25 years older than he is? And the Netflix executives, in a startling moment of common sense, greenlit the heck out of that.
His character, Yoon Heejae, is a hotshot lawyer from a family of hotshot lawyers and judges who works for a hotshot law firm. He embodies that certain kind of cocky, toxic masculinity that makes you idly fantasize about getting his tie caught in the shredder so it strangles him. Over the course of the show, you get to see him taken down a peg time and again until he learns to be submissive to the right people, instead of to the wrong ones. And he’s much, much happier that way! So yeah, if you enjoy seeing a beautiful man get that smug smile metaphorically and literally slapped right off his handsome mug, Hyena has you covered.
I had to replay the champagne scene like ten times, fuck. No, I’m not going to tell you what I mean by that. Watch the show!
