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.*

Hey guys, this posting here is very different then what I normally post on here. I haven’t been really seeing any talk in the Hetalia fandom of what’s been happening in the US though I am sure many of you know.

The BLM movment has been directing so many positive changes that should have been made long ago, and has made changes as well in state governments. Please stay knowledgeable of what’s going on and please take time to just sign petitions, donate, attend protests (if able to), spread awareness, and speak up.

Your voice is a powerful tool to make change happen.

The Philippines just got hit by the strongest tropical cyclone ever recorded in history

Yesterday, November 1, 2020, Typhoon Rolly (international name Goni) hit the central part of Luzon, Philippines. 

source: https://twitter.com/DrJeffMasters/status/1322676688002625536?s=20

Like the tweet said, it is the most powerful tropical cyclone to hit landfall in recorded history. 

The typhoon has now passed, but the aftermath is bad. Houses destroyed, farmlands flooded, and many, many evacuees. If you would like to see what’s going on, check the hashtag #RollyPH on Twitter, there’s a lot, which brings me to the most important point

how you can help

You can donate to help relief operations. 

There are many donation drives currently being circulated on Twitter, and you can find them by searching the #ReliefPH hashtag, here are just a few that I’ve found that have an option to donate through PayPal.

And there are many many more. 

This is just the tip of the iceberg, a lot of people in my country are trying their absolute best to chip in and help those affected, but help from outside would definitely be something that could go a long way. 

If you can’t donate, maybe a reblog could bring this post to people who could. 

Thank you for reading. Stay safe and healthy, everybody.

#ActsofPride Day 11 - Favorite LGBTQIA+ historical figure

“Each time I leaped I seemed to touch the sky, and when I regained earth it seemed to be mine alone.” - Josephine Baker



Tumblr Creatr @Rose contributed this original work based on today’s prompt celebrating the iconic Josephine Baker. The American-born world renowned Black bisexual dancer, actress, singer, civil rights champion, and WWII French resistance agent rose to fame in the 1920s and quickly became one of the most famous entertainers in her adopted home of France. Pablo Picasso and Earnest Hemingway were also huge fans.

The artist told us a little about why Baker inspires her:

“Josephine Baker was hailed as ‘The Black Venus’ by fellow artists of her time. Though she fled the oppression she faced in America in 1925 to live the majority of her life in France, she returned often to fight for civil rights, speaking alongside Martin Luther King Jr. at the March on Washington. Now more than ever, it is vital to lift up queer Black lives and histories, and Josephine’s is one of pure resilience, love, and absolute joy” 

We’re excited to see your favorite LGBTQIA+ historical figures too ♥️

I went to a BLM march yesterday and got some shots. It was an incredible experience and the energy levels were super high. 

I wore a mask and had hand sanitizer on hand. I just wanted to experience and be a part of something so important. 

Omg pls stop

IM SORRY

I THOUGHT IT WAS JUST A FEVER

PLEASE STOP CALLING ME SEPSIS SISTER

PLZ OMG

callout post for a friend of mine - she knows who she is - who got ill two weeks ago and had to go to hospital where they thought she had sepsis and is sTILL convinced that iT wAsNt ThAt BaD

If you want to help people affected by the explosion, I beg of you please don't donate to petitions! The government will most likely steal it because our lebanese gov is just amazing like that 😒🙃🙃

If you do want to help please donate to the red cross. Also try and find lebanese people asking you to directly help them(kofi patreon and idk what else there is). Our houses, shops, etc... Are all shattered so we need more direct donation to be able to help.

Thankfully my house wasn't affected, but there's an artist on Instagram named Audrey (@audreyghousoub)that has put up a kofi link in one of her stories to directly help her rebuild her house. That's the only person ik who needs help (well at least with money) so it would mean a lot to help her. Edit: here's the link.

Other than that, if anyone else needs help, don't hesitate to just say it! Everyone is willing to help💕 stay safe everyone!
