AFull Title: Organizations You Can Volunteer At Rather Than Send Anons to Someone for Reblogging From a Bad OP For Saying an “Only On Tumblr” Unpopular Opinion
Hello! It has come to my attention that many of my followers lack the real life experience and communication abilities to actually have an impact on the world, preferring to send useless anons so they can give themselves self-congratulatory asspats for “””doing the right thing”””. To solve this, I have come up with a list of non-profit organizations that you may volunteer at that can help give you real-world experience as to how social problems are actually changed! Volunteering can teach you amazing real-world skills that tumblr definitely cannot 🙂
If you’re having difficulty finding an LGBT non-profit organization to support, usually local libraries have connections to other non-profits in the area. Local libraries are also typically very liberal and welcoming so going in person should be safe, but if you are still iffy then usually the circulation desk has a specific number to call them.
I think if everyone got real world experience in solving social problems, tumblr would be a much better place 🙂
Fuck y’all, I meant to say pasta “gives me life” but instead I said it “gives birth to me” and now every time I eat pasta my brothers tell me to stop being mean to my mother
If you don’t know what this means, it’s basically then end of how the internet currently is in Europe. Memes? Nope. Youtubers? Bye!
You’d need a license for everything!!!!
And my fellow Americans my be all like, well, what’s the big deal for us? It’s a Europe deal.
No, because the Youtubers there that you love so much? This effects them too! I’m freaking out because Jack, the person who helps my depression go away, may no longer be able to do what he does!
Guys, we need to stop this somehow. Please.
Call your MEPs. Sign petitions. Protest (Peacefully please. Don’t get hurt).
I’m sorry for tagging you guys if you don’t want to be or already know, I just want as many people to know as possible!
I can’t tag everyone, but if you see this, please reblog it. Spread the news. Sign the petition. Call your MEPs. Do what you can to help stop this from passing in January.
I don’t live in Europe but this needs to be spread
I’m spreading this because this is greatly unsettling to me. I live in europe and really can’t imagine how the future would look like.
At this point i’m signing every petition i come across, have contacted all of the MEPs that are relevant to me and told pretty much everyone i talk to about it. Please help, it’s important.
I live in Europe and this is horrifying.
For USA folks this is effectively Europe’s net neutrality ban to-be & it bans citing sources. In all different forms of media, from links, videos, music, pictures, etc etc. Pretentiously it’s supposed to help pay content creators. In reality it halts sharing & collaboration/working together.
If you need to evacuate hurricane Florence or you are staying put
Pick a town now and let hotels know you are evacuating from Florence. This works for every problematic hurricane. It usually doesn’t matter how many indoor pets you have, it just depends on the hotel. Most hotel brands will accept more than 2 dogs and cats for hurricane evacuees.
If you have horses and cows and you are on the outskirts, remember the last cat 3 that hit florida to the carolinas? A mass death of farm animals died from flooding and wind. Help them get to higher ground and better land by asking farms in out of evacuation zones to let you use their land to keep your animals.
Hurricane Florence is a CAT 4 by the time it reaches not land, but the warm waters off our coast. It will only gain more energy the longer it stays on the water. There is always a possibility for a CAT 4 to experience CAT 5 symptoms like wind, rain, and surging without becoming a CAT 5. If you are staying put, stay put in your house where the walls are strongest. Make sure you are near the safest bathroom in case of inner storm tornado activity or structure failure. Keep all leashes on you and pets near you. If you have pets that will hide, block off their access to their hiding places. Keep their stuff just as accessible as you will your stuff.
BUY WATER NOW. BUY HURRICANE FOOD NOW. BUY BATTERIES. GET A FLASHLIGHT. DO ALL OF THIS NOW. If you are in a possible flood zone and have a small enough raft that will fit out windows, KEEP IT ON THE HIGHEST FLOOR OF YOUR HOUSE. If you are in an apartment complex in a flood zone, you need to leave. No acceptions.
Park your cars somewhere with cameras like a bank parking lot. They’ll be safer if you have trees near your home. If you have a boat in your driveway, MOVE IT AWAY.
If you have the ability, slice trees near your place that have you worried.
KEEP ALL DOORS SHUT TO BEDROOMS. If a window breaks, the pressure won’t change the rest of the house this way.
Take your pets outside on a leash when you feel it is safe enough for all of you. The eye of the storm is good for this but that can be a days worth of rain and wind. The wind isn’t always constant. Keep an eye on it and get them down there on leashes as soon as you hear it stop. You will hear the wind coming back before you see it or feel it. Be close to a door when you do this.
If you have access to a radio, use it. Put it on a station for weather. It’ll warn you of possible tornadoes in the area. A safe key though is anyone in yellow-red-purple on the radar, is in tornado alley. Keep a close eye on the sky. Don’t go to sleep.
I’m serious about shopping now. The stores will run out of food today or yesterday. Get enough water for everyone. Get bandaids too.
Get a full tank of gas too. It will run out quickly and take the gas stations days to come back. It wouldn’t be a bad idea to get an extra gallon of gas if you are leaving the area as you will find this on your way out too.
Good luck and stay away from the sea and the miles of where storm surge could occur. If you are on the coast but inland on a marsh, the surge and flooding will affect you. And they will affect you even more during high tide. The marsh can absorb a ton, but it can’t absorb this much.
Fill your bathtubs for extra water and to flush toilets. Freeze water to keep food cool. Document EVERYTHING IN YOUR HOUSE to claim for insurance if necessary. Take all important documents and keep them with you in water proof bags.
If you trust your dishwasher, put items you love in it. It’s not fully waterproof as plumbing, once backed up, will enter through the hose at the back. But if you don’t mind that and would rather be able to keep things you love with you, store them in there. You can even do jewelry in jars with lids without them floating away if you are worried about that. If you have a safe, USE IT AND ABUSE IT.
Remember, hurricanes also mean people will come in and loot! So while you are gearing up to leave, keep this in mind for objects you are leaving behind.
