Messages between me and Ibrahim @wolf-aid on the 17th of april 2025, shared with his permission
Ibrahim is only fifteen years old, and this is the kind of things he has to deal with because of the occupation. He dreams of continuing his education, but this genocide has taken that from him. Ibrahim’s home, school, and the places he used to spend his time have been destroyed, and he has been displaced multiple times and lost many relatives in the bombings. No one should have to go through this, and especially not at his age.
On top of this, both of his parents suffer from health issues, which is scary enough for a child to experience even outside of a war zone where they can’t get adequate treatment.
Prices in Gaza are sky high for food, medications and other necessities, and evacuations are expensive too. If you can donate to Ibrahim’s campaign, you are helping this family survive until the border reopens, and making sure they can afford to leave when they have the chance.
Thanks to Ibrahim’s hard work campaigning for his family, they have reached almost 90% of their goal, but they still have a little under 10,000 to go. Please don’t ignore him and don’t let this campaign slow down when they are so close to reaching their goal 🙏🏼🇵🇸

i think it's fairly common knowledge that pebbles represents the brain and moon represents the heart? even if you haven't read the dev commentary it can still be gathered from context clues (primary cortex, the room names in lttm/submerged). i have thought about this extensively and i believe that if we saw no significant harassment in-game his superstructure would be themed around the lungs.
in the dev commentary itself, andrewfm says this
and while the canonicity of downpour is debated i'm going to assume it's 100% canon for the purpose of this analysis. this statement tells us that the organ moon and pebbles are associated with directly correlates to their characters, instead of simply being related to the function of their superstructure.
now vanilla doesn't give a whole lot of nsh lore past the lore pearl that hunter carries in their campaign, but downpour gives us quite a bit more during spearmaster's campaign with the introduction of the broadcast tokens. many of these broadcasts consist of nsh trying to talk things out with and help seven red suns, who is feeling guilt over causing both pebbles' and moon's predicament. this, coupled with the effort he took to save moon, shows that he is a very caring person (despite possibly sending feet pics through pearl?).
the most basic explanation of nsh lungs is pretty much just "he resuscitated moon, i.e providing oxygen to the heart". however i brought up the broadcasts cause i think it goes a lot deeper than that --- his role in the story is to save everyone else, in a way. it's more subtle than that, because rain world's story is largely told through implications and guesses, and it tells us that he goes out of his way to help out his friends. he sends a message to pebbles telling him to stop acting so childishly, and while he probably only sent this with the intent to help moon, the outcome is still that he is trying to get him to stop being so self-destructive. he helps everyone because that's who he is, and the fact that he supplies this assistance to people is what makes him the lungs.
there's also much to be said about him and hunter and why he didn't send an overseer after hunter to guide them, but that's mostly unrelated so i'll leave that for another rant .
So do you think anybody is going acknowledge that Hind Rajab should have been celebrating her 7th birthday today with her family? Do you think anybody is going to acknowledge that?
