Not my meme but figured I'd share for those about to ride out the storm
Edit bc I'm seeing a lot of confused international reblogs: this was posted because of Hurricane Milton absolutely demolishing Florida this week after Helene went through and because US insurance agencies are kind of assholes. Stay safe out there and thanks for signal boosting!
if youβre more angry and distraught about paralyzed dysphagics and nursing home residents using single use plastic straws then you are about Taylor Swiftβs 104297th private jet flight Iβm just going to assume you donβt actually care about the environment and you just really like yelling at people
βYou can do anything you set your mind to!β
Well thanks Susan, but Iβm actually disabled which literally means I canβt do certain things.

Really fucking sucks that she has to respond to him like this. Like she should not have to worry about this piece of shit for the rest of her life.
My name is Jaber Al-Haj. I am from Gaza, married to my wife, Menna, and we have a little son named Hashim, who is less than two years old. Like any Palestinian family, we dreamed of a simple and stable life. But the recent war turned our lives upside down. The sounds of explosions never left us, and fear has become part of our daily existence. My son Hashim suffers from health problems that urgently require treatment, but the war has destroyed everything, including the healthcare system, making access to necessary medical care nearly impossible. With each passing day, our suffering deepens, and the fear for Hashimβs health and future consumes me.
Alongside my small family, I used to work with my brothers, Aboud and Bilal, on our joint projectβa small lab for producing essential household cleaning products. We started this project with modest resources, dreaming that it would become a source of income to support us and provide job opportunities for our community. But the war left us with nothing. Our lab, which was once filled with life and hard work, was reduced to rubble under the bombardment. We lost our equipment, our livelihood, and with it, a part of our dreams for the future.
Even our home, our only refuge, did not escape the destruction. It was severely damaged and is now uninhabitable. We were forced to flee and live in a tent under harsh conditions unfit for human life. The cold, the heat, the lack of resources, and the absence of privacy have made life nearly unbearable. We try to cope, but every day brings new challenges and suffering.
Today, what worries me the most is my son Hashim's condition. His health is deteriorating, and he desperately needs treatment abroad. However, under the circumstances weβre living in, I lack the means to secure his travel and medical expenses. As a father, there is nothing more heartbreaking than watching my child suffer while being unable to help him.
This campaign is a lifeline for my family in our darkest hour. With your generosity, we can bring hope back into our lives and secure a better future for my son, Hashim. Every contribution, no matter how small, makes a world of difference.

Thank you for standing with us and helping us through this difficult time. Your kindness means more than words can express.
With heartfelt gratitude, Jaber AlHaj

Reasons I have seen webcomic authors publicly cite for cancelling their comic mid-storyline:
Too busy Β
Lost interest Β
Increasing age gap between characters and author made it difficult to relate Β
Did the math and figured out that completing the planned arc with their current update schedule would take 150 years Β
Ostensible author actually a fictional persona thatβs now being retired, and they didnβt want the comic linked to their real identity Β
Realised that the way theyβd written the central relationship wasnβt emotionally genuine (note: this was a hobbit porn comic) Β
The comicβs readership contained too many lesbians Β
Converted to a religion that regards all representational art as a form of idolatry Β
Broke up with the person the protagonist was based on Β
Outed as not actually Japanese Β
Imprisoned for manslaughter Β
Aliens
