PLEASE READ!!!!!⚠️

Okay so this is really great because I didn’t know of any alternative to calling and I get anxious calling people bUt this thing called ResistBot will fax messages to your senators/representatives/governor for free but you can just text “RESIST” to 50409 to get started and it’ll tell you how it works. When it gets to the part where you have to write a message you can either write your own or send this (and edit it if you want, I’m the one who wrote it so it’s not the best)

“To whom it may concern,

I am (name) from (city, state), and I am contacting you regarding the proposition to abolish net neutrality by the FCC. As both a student and someone who follows current events, it is of importance to me to have unrestricted access to sites that keep me informed. A loss of net neutrality has the potential to prevent this. Surely it should remain the right of every citizen to be informed; the freedom of the media and of the people to access it is part of what defines us as Americans. Handing over the authority to internet providers to restrict our access to certain sites or artificially slow internet speeds is not in the best interests of the people as a whole. Who will benefit from this? Large companies, who are able to pay the fees required to hasten the speed in which one can access their site(s). What then, will happen to the entrepreneurs, the small businesses, all of the ventures and enterprises that the American government claims to protect? What will happen to news sources and blogs, whose rights to free speech are protected by our Constitution?

For the sake of free speech, free press, and the American people, I implore you to advocate to preserve net neutrality.

Thank you,

(your name)”

Girl meets world Account

Heyyy Guys! A friend of mine is starting a Gmw Acc for mainly Lucaya and Riarkle and I know how much of you like gmw and those parings! She’s just getting started so could you follow her so she’ll get off to a good start? @gmwlucayatrash10

the signs at a fun fair

forces their friend to go on all of the rides with them: aries, gemini, scorpio, sagittarius spends all of their money on games and food stalls: taurus, leo, libra, capricorn, aquarius is the one being forced to go on the rides: cancer, virgo, pisces

what the signs would do if their loved one was hurt/threatened

aries: full mother bird mode. someone is going to get cut, stabbed, or possibly hospitalized. mauled just enough for them to learn a lesson. taurus: they get in a debate and argue back and forth with whoever is placing the person they care about in harm’s way. they’re great in arguments thanks to their resilience, so the person ends up giving up. gemini: they’d back them up like any tru homie 10/10. nothing too extreme because they don’t want anyone getting hurt, but it’s not cool to mess w people. cancer: you wouldn’t expect it from cancer, but they go on full on, almost as dangerous as aries when upset. not only will they get physical if necessary, they also know a lot of cards they could pull to make you look like a terrible person. bye-bye social status. leo: DO NOT MESS WITH THEIR FRIENDS. probably one of the deadliest people to mess with alongside aries and scorpio. they’ll destroy from the inside out or the outside in–any way they can, they’ll make it happen. virgo: they care for their friends, but the last thing they want is trouble. they’ll try to find a way to negotiate things out, and will probably succeed. libra: they know everyone and have ties everywhere. there’s no one to run when libra is around. libra knows all. libra sees all. libra hears all. scorpio: lmao grave should be dug and headstone rightfully purchased and carved into bc dead for sure sagittarius: they’ll try not to upset even the person harming their friend. they’ll just protect, protect, protect. maybe that will require some contact with the person, or even physical violence. whatever needs to happen, will. capricorn: they’ll snake their way into destroying the person socially. they’re not social butterflies, but they’re good with words and spreading their words around like wildfire. their friends are carefully selected and must be handled with great care because of that. aquarius: their friend will be protected in the end, but the “villain” will still leave with their limbs intact. their dignity, not so much. aquarius will probably mess with them playfully, but it will do the trick. pisces: they don’t want to pick sides. don’t make them. this is too stressful. their friend is their friend and they want to protect them, but the bully is big and scary and what if they come after them next?! this is too much. too dangerous. they’re just one person. they can’t take the pressure.

The signs according to my 5 year old cousin

Aries: "is it like the air in the sky?"

Taurus: "tortoise!"

Gemini: "gem in eye haha!"

Cancer: "cancer's bad! It's a disease"

Leo: "I have a friend named Leo!"

Virgo: "fur what?"

Libra: "bra? Ahahahaha"

Scorpio: "those can sting you"

Sagittarius: "wait can you say that again?"

Capricorn: "that makes me think of candy corn"

Aquarius: "I went to an Aquarius once. There were lots of fish"

Pisces: "Pisces. spicy. Pisces. Spicy. Hahahaha!"

Pastor says bottled water donations slowing to trickle in Flint

A pastor says donations of bottled water to his Flint church have dried up in the past month.

Donations poured in from across the nation in the weeks and months after it was learned that Flint’s drinking water was contaminated with lead. At times, the response nearly overwhelmed the effort to distribute water to Flint residents.  

Bishop Roger Lee Jones’ north side church parking lot used to be filled with pallets of water, but now the flood of donations has slowed to a trickle.

Help me flee my country.

Hello, my name is Carmen (she/her). I’m 23 years old, and I need help to leave my country, Venezuela.

(Some info about myself: I have a B.Ed. in Spanish and Literature, and I’m currently working as a news editor)

The following is a lot to take in, but bare with me.

As some of you may know, Venezuela is in a deep economic, political, and humanitarian crisis due to the low oil prices, the devaluation of out currency and a corrupt government that doesn’t know how to handle the nation.

Right now Vzla is the country with the highest inflation rate in the world: 1369% (hyperinflation).

Our currency, the bolívar fuerte, is practically worthless. Here, one (1) dollar is worth around 100.000 Bs. f. the minimum wage is 456.507 Bs. f. a month. I, a full time worker (8 hours per day), make less than 5 dollars a month.

Because the national production is dead, almost everything is imported. Which means the cost of products depends on the value of the $. So basic goods can cost half your salary.

(Here some info about foreign currency regulations and price controls in Venezuela)

Some prices (12/11/2017):

(I know, it’s RIDICULOUS)

All of this, of course, increases the violence, insecurity and corruption rates as well. Caracas (our capital), Valencia and Maturín made it to the top 10 “most violent cities in the world”. Cumaná (Where I live) is number 24.

Basically, you can’t own anything without being at risk of getting robbed/kidnaped/killed, you can’t save money because the devaluation/inflation moves too fast, you can’t eat well because you can’t afford it, you can’t get sick because there’s no medicine and hospitals are in shambles.

We literally don’t even have cash, because we need too many bills to buy anything and the demand is too high.

You can’t live here, period.

A lot of venezuelans are leaving the country everyday to anywhere really, but as the time goes by it gets harder to get out. Airlines are cutting flights and the transportation system is shutting down.

(The photo below is from the San Cristóbal terminal. A bus loads people who travel to the Colombian border. 12/07/2017)

I stayed for the longest, hopeful that maybe things would change, but nothing happened and things are just getting worse.

For that and more, I, along with two close friends, have decided to leave Venezuela and settle in Perú, to help our families from outside.

“The bolivar is so devalued that sending only a fraction of a month’s salary to a relative in Venezuela can amount to millions of bolivars. For example, the minimum wage in Peru is around US $250. If you send your relative about US $10, they would have three minimum wage monthly salaries” (x).

But before all that we need money. At least $1.500 to pay for the travel (on bus/ 4 days aprox.) and to cover the expenses of a month stay (until we stabilize) in Perú.

So, that’s it. Any little help is a lot, PLEASE SHARE.

(Because neither Paypal nor GoFundMe work in Venezuela…)
