many things of little importance

excuse me, UM WDYM JUST A FRIEND

DON’T FORGET FLINT: The people of Flint, Michigan still don’t have drinkable tap water, and Little Miss Flint wants to make sure people don’t forget. She’s running a fundraiser to sell 1,600 “Don’t Forget Flint” shirts aimed at keeping awareness of the water crisis in Flint fresh in people’s minds.

All of the proceeds from this fundraiser will go towards giving Christmas to the children in Flint, as well as to anti-bullying programs in Flint.

These are what I use when I need a break at work or from studying. I like them because they usually take just enough time for me to enjoy without feeling super guilty.

Commaful: stories are super short and perfect for quick breaks. they have everything from fanfiction to poetry. try to stick to just one tho otherwise you’ll get sucked in Bouncy Balls: Bounce balls. The most mindless thing ever. just bouncy, bouncy, bouncy Mental Floss: learn epic stuff. you’ll learn everything from pop culture to tech to history and more!! short and fun Don’t Even Reply: I started reading this and couldn’t stop laughing at work…it’s some dude trolling people on craigslist. i can’t….stop….laughing…. This Is My Website Now: Fun little games, takes just a few minutes but great for a break Oddee: REALLY REALLY weird stories Pixel Thoughts: this is more when you have a tough day or a rough time. a short little meditation fixes everything right up! Silk: Create dreamy works of art with your mouse. Have fun subconsciously drawing genitalia. Akinator, The Web Genius: This magical genie thing that is stuck in your computer and can read minds. It was 2/3 for me. not bad!

People are dying in hospitals because of lack of diesel for the generators, a lot of the water is now infected, there are disease outbreaks and scareceness of food. I am safe, but many are not.

Some have water, others don’t. We need help. Sending money would be helpful but what would help even more would be sending water filters, filtering water bottles, food, medicine, if somehow possible diesel.

Choose the fundraiser you want from the dropdown menu in the “Your Information” section (as you can see from the picture they have several).

At least 22 people are already dead across South America and the storm is expected to be upgraded in the next few days.

  Due to clinical negligence my life has fallen to shambles. Im suffering from a condition called Topical Steroid withdrawal which is completely preventable. Topical Steroid withdrawal is caused by abuse of topical steroids like cortisone which was allowed to happen because of neglect of warning from medical doctors about the proper use of creams like these. 

  Many people like me are suffering in silence because dermatologists are trained to deny the existence of this condition. There are many Facebook groups and forums of fellow sufferers. (Please feel free to research)

This is Miss Nicole. Her hobbies include being an immense asshole.

If you are able, donating money is one of the most efficient ways to help in a time of crisis.

After a cursory search these are a few charities that are helping with hurricane relief and are highly rated on charity navigator. International Medical Corps, Direct Relief, Jewish United Fund of Metropolitan Chicago, Heart to Heart International, and Helping Hand for Relief and Development

From Irma there was this fund set up by a local nonproft organization called Taller Salud (Health Workshop– its an awkward translation) to help families in the historically marginalized, poor and Afro-Puerto Rican municipality of Loíza who lost their homes due to poor construction. 

The Taller Salud fund is in paypal and its this one. PLEASE PLEASE DONATE TO THEM!!! These families DO NOT HAVE HOMES and will pass hurricane María in shelters as refugees. Taller Salud is also HIGHLY TRUSTED among Puerto Ricans. 

This is the only monetary fund I know of helping Puerto Ricans, since other monetary funds are via a service only available on the Island called ATH Movíl (Mobile Debit) or via the local bank. There will probably be more set up after the passage of the hurricane, and if i have internet ill try to update this post. 

Please donate to Topos, a rescue team that was formed during the 1985 earthquake in Mexico City and has helped many other countries during catastrophes. YOU CAN HELP EVEN IF YOU AREN’T IN MEXICO. Your dollars are worth almost double in Mexico, so something small as $15 has a big impact. If you can donate, you can do it directly here: Paypal: [email protected]

PLEASE HELP ME BUY FOOD!!

Hey Tumblr 

I’m a mentally ill, 20+ year old who is in a horribly desperate situation and I’m really sorry to post ‘another’ one of these but, I really, really need money to buy food/toiletries.  As many know, I have been on benefit’s which were suspended for 6 weeks due to me being rejected for a job because of my mental health. I get paid on the 25th which will be just under £200, all of which will need to go to my rent for the month of August. *I’m already going to court on the 1st of August about my rent arrears, so I can’t afford not to pay it*. I also have a nutrient deficiency from lack of proper food, so I really, really need help. The few amazing people who have donated to me have allowed me to eat thus far, but without any further help, I won’t make it. And I can’t get any help from anywhere else e.g food banks/government.

And Tumblr, I know this is a lot to ask but if you can spare a few £’s/$’s to help me buy some food/toiletries it would mean the world to me.

PayPal.me is the best option for me https://www.paypal.me/Gemzy and for $/€ donations, [email protected] or via the PayPal icon on my blog. Even if you can’t donate please, please signal boost this in hopes that someone else may be able to. Thank you ❤❤❤
