hindi is a language

hinduism is a religion

hindu is someone who follows it

not all indians are hindu

not all indians speak hindi

the ‘d’ in hindu and hindi is pronounced like the ‘th’ in ‘though’

desi, pronounced “they see” and not daisy or dessi, means south asian

south asia = pakistan, india, bangladesh, sri lanka, nepal, etc. for those of you who have never looked at world map

desis are asians and have every right to call themselves that. shocking, I know. take your time to digest that.

I can’t believe I have to make this post

it’s 2013 and people still don’t know how to google this shit

We are a black gnc lesbian couple living in a metal framed travel trailer for the winter in Michigan and it’s cold. Our home holds cold air way too well it’s regularly 10 degrees colder in our house and maintaining our heat while dry camping / camping with no water or electric hookup is essential to our survival. We’re raising funds for a generator, extra solar panels, 12v battery and warm winter clothing. We are asking for support in raising $1200.

Hey guys, my older brother is in a bad spot. A really bad spot. He’s been unable to work and recently had his card repo’d, on top of facing eviction from his apartment. 

He literally has nowhere to go, not even a car to stay in anymore. 

He is also positive for Huntington’s Disease but not at the stage to receive disability yet, and has been severely depressed. I’m scared he’ll do something now since he’s in such a hopeless situation.

MY FUCKING COOKER EXPLODED!! HELP!!!

*URGENT: PLEASE READ/SIGNAL BOOST**

Wednesday, September 1st: Hi everyone, I’m Gemma, a bi, mentally ill disaster, who’s in desperate need of help, and I've had to remake this post as my cooker broke at the weekend, and I'm still struggling to get a new one.

As most of you are already aware from my previous post, I have been struggling financially for quite some time due to my welfare benefit (Universal Credit) being under a review, which is due to my worsening mental health and the UK’s controversial changes to how benefits are assessed and assigned. And at the moment, I'm currently struggling to get by, as my application for Disability (PIP) was declined and I am currently awaiting for an appointment for a WCA (Work Capability Asessment) from the DWP to assess my mental and physical health, and my debt from overdue bills is piling up to an amount that I'm really struggling with, so affording a new appliance isn't going to be easy.

I know this is a huge ask, and I'm completely heartbroken to be asking for aid again, but I still desperately need some as I don't have anyone else to turn to help, and I'm in serious need to be able to replace my broken cooker ASAP. And due to having to use some money to pay my overdue rent/utilities, I'm still struggling to reach my goal which is now at £365!!

If anyone could spare any amount to help me, even if it’s just £1/$1/€1, it would literally save my life, and sharing definitely helps just as much as donations. Nobody is obligated in any way to donate if they can’t or don’t want to, I know we’re all struggling right now.

£0/£365!!

my hometown and the surrounding region are currently experiencing one of the most catastrophic natural disasters we’ve seen in decades. storm surges, heavy rainfall, and 90+ mph winds are destroying infrastructure and have already left hundreds of thousands of people without power (which, for many, may not be restored for weeks or months). this storm developed so rapidly that many people had no time to plan an evacuation even if they could afford to, and it’s moving VERY slowly over the region, meaning that these torrential winds and rainfall will continue into the next day or longer. all of this compounded with the fact that hospitals are already overwhelmed due to COVID-19, the lack of air conditioning in the coming weeks will spell disaster for many, and the 16-year anniversary of Hurricane Katrina is today creates an incredibly bleak situation for residents of Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, and beyond.
