I HAVE WAITED ALL YEAR TO POST THIS

PLEASE do not scroll by.

I’ve never had this many followers on Tumblr, and I’ve always said I would never use you guys to promote or exploit things with my platform. Ever. And I am still not doing that.

We are always helping one another on my blog, and I REALLY need your help.

One of my friends with two children is stuck in an abusive household. She is repeatedly emotionally abused, she’s had her forehead cut open, been slammed into glass, and is repeatedly raped by her boyfriend that stalks her, has tracking apps on her phone, and forces her to quit/not have a job. He even watches her go to the bathroom to make sure she’s not using a phone.

I have never shared a GoFundMe before, and I never would if it weren’t completely urgent. She didn’t ask for money. She didn’t ask for help. She begged people not to call the police because she gets hurt even more every time it happens. She’s scared.

We set up a GoFundMe on her behalf.

You guys reblog plenty of memes and “Share for good luck,” posts. Please take two seconds to reblog this post for the safety of a woman and her two children. You might be saving someones life.

Here is her GoFundMe.

hey there LGBTQ kids who are also Christian/Jewish! If you feel like you’re disobeying God, questioning your faith, or feel wrong and dirty for loving who you love, there’s this fantastic site I found today called hoperemains that accurately and thoroughly combs through scripture and its (many) mistranslations, validates your orientation, and basically let’s you know that you’re not pissing off God. It’s insanely thorough and after reading through every page on the entire site it’s super helpful. Go check it out!

How to Make a Face Mask for Hospitals and Medical Centers

Hospitals and medical centers across the country are asking sewers to make face masks to protect out health workers. You can google “how to sew face masks for hospitals” to find out where fabric masks are being requested.

Stillwater Medical Center is asking sewers to follow the face mask pattern from buttoncounter.com here.

From Deaconess Health System:

EVANSVILLE, Ind. — Citing shortages, Deaconess Health System, including Henderson’s Methodist Health, has asked the public to sew face masks for staff fighting coronavirus.

“This does follow CDC protocols that you can find on their website that if all other supplies are not available, that handmade masks that meet certain criteria are acceptable,” Deaconess spokeswoman Becca Scott said.

The release with the video, pattern and instructions was posted to the Deaconess Facebook page Thursday morning and is available at www.deaconess.com/masks. A PDF of the pattern is available here and embedded at the bottom of this article.  

Deaconess has “a sample video” about how to make the masks, which Scott said will be sterilized when they come in.

Additional Resources for Open Source or Volunteer COVID-19 Projects:

One of my favorite how-to sites is Instructables. The DIY Cloth Face Mask has almost 100,000 views. It is a step-by-step instruction for those who need it. Kudos to ashevillejm.

In 2006, CDC released a Simple Respiratory Mask design using heavyweight t-shirts in its Emerging Infectious Diseases journal. More of an academic post, but some ideas in it.

A Facebook group was formed last week: Open Source COVID19 Medical Supplies. It is worth a visit — in just a few short days there are 20,000-plus members and volunteers.

If you are looking for some research and street-level testing of various materials for DIY mask-making, this post from Smart Air Filters is exceptional: What Are The Best Materials for Making DIY Masks? It also includes a few great links at the end of it.

Maybe some of you are in a place where you need to hear these things. Trust me, it does turn out okay. 💛
