Most important: Spend the money you have on a motel. Churches probably will not actually help and shelters can be dangerous or turn you away. At a motel you have free breakfast, access to running water, and a lockable place to sleep. Do not waste money on a gym membership like the popular version of this post says to do, YMCA memberships are like $40.
2. Contact family and friends. Now is not the time to worry about being a burden. Your survival and safety comes first and that is all that matters, anyone worth having in your life will agree.
3. Start a gofundme. Even if someone can’t offer you a place to stay, they might be willing to toss out $5 so you can eat today.
4. Libraries have free wifi. Apply to any and all jobs you can think of if you aren’t already working.
5. Any home is a good home. Even if it’s a dingy apartment in a bad neighborhood. If its cheap and you can afford it, snatch it up.
6. Pancake mix and peanut butter are filling, cheap, and last a long time.
PLEASE SHARE THE FUCK OUT OF THIS
Get angry. Get frustrated. Scream at the top of your fucking lungs.
Every year, ever month, someone somewhere loses their rights. Someone gets fucked over by people who are not affected by the choices they make. Im so fucking tired of this horrendous world and the stupid people put in charge, making decisions they have no right over
Ukraine, America, Poland, England, Palestine, Saudi Arabia, Ethiopia, and so much more places are suffering. So many people are suffering for NO FUCKING REASON.
Im tired of this earth.
PROTEST. SIGN PETITIONS. DONATE. AND PLEASE, SEND HELP TO PEOPLE IF YOU CAN.
I’m praying for the people protesting in Washington DC—widespread media blackouts for 6 hours during this time isn’t normal and I’m genuinely afraid of what’s to come 😞
there are currently protestors clashing with police directly in front of the white house. Do not spread any videos of this. Do not spread any photos of this. This goes for all protestors in any city in any state. if you have to share a picture completely block out the entire person, do not blur the image as there is software that can undo blurring.
FOR THOSE IN AREAS WHO HAVE CURFEWS/HAVE BEGAN TO PREPARE FIREARMS BE WEARY OF “CIVILIANS” WITH THESE COLORED BANDS ON THEIR ARMS IN THE ACCORDING AREAS. THEY ARE UNDERCOVER COPS.
i want to be soft again but i have so much anger in me
How did they deserve a childhood and I didn’t? Who gave them the right to take mine away?
To all my black followers and friends, stay safe.
Also, I would like to add that black lives have always mattered, will always matter.
It’s awful that we even have to say that because it should be a given. However, we need to say it loud and clear for the racists.
We cannot be silent.
