Look, I know a good number of you are from the US and things aren't amazing there either, but my country is literally on the brink of collapse. So I'd love it if we could talk about that for a minute.
If you can't do anything else, please just read and reblog.
A second COVID wave has taken out the healthcare system. There are no more hospital beds. There's an oxygen shortage. There's a critical vaccine shortage. The Central Government has thrown its hands up and is passing the baton to the State Governments to do what they can.
There are over 16 million covid cases. A record 330,000 new cases reported yesterday - comparable to the US at its peak. 187,000 dead as of today.
There is no plan.
Mass cremations are taking place. The cremation grounds are running day and night and they are short on wood. People are watching their loved ones die while waiting for a hospital bed, and then they're unable to give them the proper burial rights.
Hospitals are overwhelmed. Patients are being confined, two to a bed. They're the lucky ones.
We are on the verge of people dying in the streets.
This is the second-most populous country in the world. The largest democracy. A country that encapsulates over 15,000 years of recorded human history and has endured everything from famine to invasion to colonisation.
We might be at the end. This might be the thing that does us in.
People are dying.
People are dying.
People are dying and there is no plan.
More good news? Variants are popping up. A double mutation strain has shown up. It is resistant to current vaccines. This will not go away. This is the devastation they warned of when the anti-maskers were out protesting the minor inconvenience of covering their face in public.
My country is on the verge of an emergency state. Our government has failed us. This is as dire a situation as it ever could be.
Look. I don't do much with my life. I write fics, some of you have read them and that's pretty much it. I spend my days with my head in the clouds because that's where I like to be.
But two days ago, my grandmother tested positive, had to be taken to hospital and the ambulance caught fire.
She barely made it to the urgent care she needs.
So, here I am, using whatever meager platform I have to cobble this request together. Because I have to do something.
If you can, donate.
Or spread the word.
Help. Please.
i may be an awful student that doesn’t do their work on time, but at least i’m honest; and why would i let a robot do the fun of writing about the silly little characters that are constantly being rotated in my head?
a writing competition i was going to participate in again this year has announced that they now allow AI generated content to be submitted
their reasoning being that "we couldn't ban it even if we wanted to, every writer already uses it anyway"
"Every writer"?
come on
We have entered the season of cold temperatures. This is a friendly reminder to tap tap tap on your hoods & wheels and blow your horn.
The numbers of cats being injured or killed are far higher than people are aware of 😓😓.
PLEASE PLEASE take that extra minute before starting your cars. SAVE A LIFE.
You can only reblog this today.
So that your followers know it’s okay to dig through your blog and send in memes, starters, or responses to opens days, weeks, or months after they’ve been first posted.
Thanks to God, I completed my treatment in Egypt, and my daughter passed the secondary exams (Baccalaureate) after a hard work and study and the suffering and pain from the war,Her wish was to enter university like the rest of her friends, but due to lack of money, she is now unable to complete her studies.😞

In the past, people saw the polls, saw who they support was doing well, and didn't vote. Then, their candidate lost.
Get out and vote.
@runephoenix6769 posted this but because of the tags tumblr wouldn't let me blaze it. Hopefully it'll let me since i'm not tagging anything.
EDIT: do not mail your ballots now! It's too late to mail them, check your county's rules for returning them to get them counted. You may be able to drop them off at a ballot box or voting site.
Be aware that there are limits on who can return them, and that you may need to provide ID. Check your county's website before you go.
Additionally, you don't have to tell people how you voted. You can lie! They will never know.
And vote the whole ballot! I know it's a lot, but it is so important. It helps how our schools are run, how your local police department is run, and even the potholes in your area.
Not to mention the citizen-submitted bills/propositions!
i like art and videogames lolfav shows include leverage, psych, and the bad batchfav games include minecraft, terraria, stardew valley, and raftpfp is one of my star wars ocs
