IMPORTANT, PLEASE READ
This is probably the most important thing that will ever go on this blog, so I’d really appreciate it if you can help.
A friend of mine, who is lgbtq+, is living in a homophobic country, and he needs to get out.
https://www.gofundme.com/f/help-gay-in-homophobic-country?utm_source=customer&utm_campaign=m_pd+share-sheet&utm_medium=copy_link-tip
Here’s his gofundme, please please please donate.
A few friendly reminders
-Many wheelchair users can stand or walk short distances. This does not diminish their need for a wheelchair.
-Many deaf/Deaf/heard of hearing people have limited hearing, the ability to speak, lip reading ability, or any combination of the three. They still require proper accommodations for their deafness.
-What a person with sensory issues can handle often varies on a day to day basis. Just because they could handle something a few weeks ago doesn’t mean they’re lying about an inability to do it now.
-The same goes for people with chronic pain or fatigue.
-Just because someone has a learning or developmental disability it does not mean they’re automatically unintelligent. With the proper accommodations and support, many can thrive academically. Some disabilities such as ADHD and autism can even make individuals more suited to certain tasks than neurotypicals.
-Unless you are a doctor with the correct expertise, disabled people most likely know more about their conditions and what accommodations they require than you do.
-Disabled people and communities deserve respect.
PLEASE READ. WILL NOT HURT TO AND FORWARD. Kids are putting Drano, tin foil, and a little water in plastic drink bottles and capping it up - leaving it on lawns, in mail boxes, in gardens, on driveways etc. just waiting for you to pick it up intending to put it in the rubbish, but you’ll never make it!!!
If the bottle is picked up, and the bottle is shaken even just a little - in about 30 seconds or less it builds up enough gas which then explodes with enough force to remove some your extremities. The liquid that comes out is boiling hot as well. Don’t pick up any plastic bottles that may be lying in your yards or in the gutter, etc. Pay attention to this. A plastic bottle with a cap. A little Drano. A little water. A small piece of foil. Disturb it by moving it; and BOOM!! No fingers left and other serious effects to your face, eyes, etc. Please ensure that everyone that may not have email access are also informed of this.
Snopes confirms.

$ for Surgery for Deformed Jaw
Hello there!
I’m trying to raise money for Orthognathic surgery, as I was born with a jaw deformity that makes it difficult to speak, chew, and swallow. It also causes regular migraines and neck pain.
The estimate I was given was 6500.00 dollars. I was denied a loan (my original plan) due to me being on disability.
In order to avoid fees I am taking donations directly through my paypal ezekielmith@gmail.com.
The longer I wait the less likely the surgery will be successful. Each day my teeth and jaw continue to worsen from regular use.
If you are unsure, private message me and I will provide a picture of the estimate itself. I understand that a lot of calls for donations can come from less than honest intent.
If you can’t donate, please share this post. Every share and donation helps!
485/6500 raised

hey not to be a killjoy but can y’all spread the carrd about what’s going on in Poland
obvious warning for homophobia, transphobia, etc. in the link above.
I was born there. I have countless of LGBT friends there, and the fact that this is happening in the year 2020 is inhumane and terrifying.
If you’re Polish, vote in the upcoming election. If you’re not polish, please spread the carrd around.
I am not an ideology. Nie jestem ideologią.
I find a lot of arguably mean things funny, but there’s a special place in my heart for hardcore hipsters who insist they love tea despite having no idea how to brew it and just choking down that hot bitter disaster while insisting it’s God’s gift to man
feel free to share + repost these images. stand with serbia. (note: the election was parliamentary, not presidential.)

PLEASE REBLOG! THIS IS AN UPDATED LIST!
DON’T IGNORE US!
*You don’t need to donate to change.org, donate directly to the families. Also if there’s a problem with a petition (or you have a petition I should add), please dm me instead of reblogging so I can fix it faster.*
In the last four days, a lot of you might have seen the video of Mr. Philip Banks catching a baby boy that was thrown out of a burning building - the baby was saved by both him and the mother who sacrificed herself to help save her kids. In the video, you can hear neighbors pleading with her to jump down herself, but she didn't. She was completely engulfed in flames by the time she went back in to try and save her daughter. There are three heroes in this story, and all three of them are angels, one in Heaven now, and the other two here on Earth. Mr. D'Artagnan Alexander is the name of the neighbor of the Longs who kicked in the door of their apartment, went inside the fire and saved the little girl, who the mother managed to carry as close to the exit as possible before succumbing to her horrific injuries. The final sacrifice of a loving mother and the selflessness and bravery of these two amazing men are incredible. Words aren't enough.
Both of the children made it, but sadly it was too late for Mrs. Rachel Long. She leaves behind a little girl that will need more surgeries to start her recovery, a baby boy that is getting better but is extremely traumatized, and a husband who is now heartbroken and left homeless with their two children.
I implore you, if you cannot donate yourselves, I completely understand, but please at least share the donation link, that helps too!
Mr. Phillip Banks is a true hero. The way he sprinted to catch the little boy, throwing himself with everything he got to save him - without a doubt, the boy would have been severely more injured or gone if it wasn't for him. Mr. D'Artagnan Alexandar is another true hero. That little girl would not have made it without him. He ran inside a burning apartment, risked his life, all to save a child and he tried saving the mother too, but she was already impossible. Can't imagine how traumatic all of that is for the two of them as well, and for all the neighbors and family members affected. A lot of people helped in this tragic situation.
And Mrs. Rachel Long? I can't even begin to describe how horrifying it is what she had to do to save her children, and how brave she was in her final moments. She was such a strong woman and amazing mother. No one should ever have to go through that. How do you recover from something like this? It seems impossible. She and her family are in my thoughts and prayers.
Rachel Long, an angel in Heaven, rest in peace.
important PSA about when your car is smoking
like literally smoking from the engine
white and you smell pancakes? it’s the coolant. panic and pull over, but you’ll live
a slight blue tinge? it’s the oil. panic and pull over, but you’ll live
grey, looks like fire smoke? gasoline; the most combustable and dangerous. pull over and leave the vehicle, pray.
sharing because i didn’t know this when my car started smoking white yesterday and i was so afraid for my life.
Friendly reminder to check your breasts while you’re just sitting there scrolling the internet, then reblog so your followers do the same. Two people I know were just diagnosed within the same week.
This is something I really needed to hear, those posts saying do [x] or you're a bad person do make me feel bad because I'm truly terrified of getting in trouble for talking about it in my family (I've already gotten in some arguments over it), and I don't repost anything on most of my social media because if my parents find out, I have no idea what they're going to do.
hey, i didn’t want to derail someone else’s post but its making me deeply anxious not to say anything so I’m gonna make my own
if you are in a privileged group but also a minor? especially a mentally ill minor, and TRIPLE if there is even the most remote chance saying something could result in danger for you?
those ‘use your privilege’ post telling you to stand up to your family members (which i notice becoming increasingly frequent at this time of year) are not directed at you.
(also, significantly more hostile aside - anybody who comes on this post to clown and say that they are feel free to fuck off in literally every goddamn direction)
I know with kids like Greta Thunberg making the news, and post listing other Gen Z kids making changes, it can be easy to feel like those posts are calling you, kids, out specifically.
and don’t get me wrong, I am so, so proud of those kids. and if you can stand up to your family members, I’m proud of you, too.
But, and i mean this in gentlest way possible - this is not your job.
It isn’t. Some of you are taking it on, and thats very noble of you, but it isn’t and should not be your job. anybody who says things like “these kids are gonna save the world” makes me want to tear my hair out because kids should not be saving the world, kids should be being kids. You should be worried about taking the ACT and figuring out what kind of people/if you want to kiss, not fucking fascism.
the most stressful decision you should have to make at a family gathering is what sweater to wear, not putting your literal child self in the middle of a bigoted, hostile confrontation, and anybody - especially any adult - who tells you otherwise is not only an asshole but it is fucking irresponsible, and does not have your best interest at heart.

Hey folks, this is not your typical post about incorrect quotes.
I want to address a serious issue today, and most of you probably know what’s been going on in the US.
The killing of George Floyd started another serious and necessary debate on Police brutality in the states. (And I think not just there. Every country is affected in some way or another.)
My heart doesn’t ache, no. My heart is bleeding and crying out of pain about what has been going on for days now. What people have been going through for years and years. This is not the first case of police brutality against POC, nor the second, and it probably isn’t the last one.
It happened so many times already that I can’t count them all. Our world has lost so many beautiful souls to this never-ending issue. Additionally to this, we lost so many brothers and sisters of color who were part of the LGBTQ+ community too. Even though it is pride month, I can’t enjoy and celebrate it as much as I want to.
But now is the time to act. Now more than ever! We all have a voice, and I’m sure as hell using mine. And I want you to do the same.
40 Ways you can help right now shows you different techniques and approaches to support the #blacklivesmatter movement in various forms.
Everyone’s able to do something. Even if you don’t have the money to donate, or you’re not from the US, share articles, draw attention to it in some way. Being silent about this puts you on the side of the offenders.
I understand that I will never understand. However, I stand with all of you!!! Credit goes to @sfbucketlist on instagram for these 40 ways you can help right now.
OKAY DEMIGODS, WAKE UP!! IT’S HERE!! IT’S FREAKIN HAPPENINGGG 😭😭
