I need help.
Hello!! My name is Madison. You may know my account from my fundrasing posts for God Provides Orphanage, and for my friend Krish. I really care about them. I'm always looking for ways I can help them. I am always trying to come up with new plans to find donors or get them a sponsorship. My goal has been to get a job as soon as I could to help out, and I've been taking on freelance work to try and help! For reasons I'm about to explain, this goal had become very difficult.
My body is just falling apart right now. Eating is a struggle because I'm so exhausted, and because of this you can see my bones from all the weight I've lost. I'm getting more seizures, my head feels like it's being compressed always, and I can barely stand. I'm shaking and shaking typing this. I'm not sure why, but my health is relapsing into a worse and worse state. Dysautonomia just happens like that sometimes.
I don't want to sound too grim! But, my point is, because of this, I have felt very weak. And I have just not been able to do everything I wanted to! I haven't been nearly as much help as I'm trying to be. If you've wanted to help someone lately, especially if you've wanted to help in the black lives matter or stop asian hate fields (yazid and krish are from Uganda and the Philippines) this is a way you can!!
So!! I could really use the help of a team. If there's anyone who's willing to help me look for donors and message them, please DM me or reply to this post! Thank you very much.
"The next game in the Life is Strange series is coming this September, and will star an all-new protagonist with all-new powers. And unlike previous entries in the series, Life is Strange: True Colors won’t be episodic — the full story will be released all at once on Sept. 10.
Publisher Square Enix and developer Deck Nine Games, the team behind 2017’s Life is Strange: Before the Storm, revealed True Colors on Thursday during the Square Enix Presents digital showcase. Their new game game stars Alex Chen, a young Asian American woman who moves to the fictional Colorado town of Haven Springs to reunite with her brother Gabe. Alex possess supernatural powers in the form of psychic Empathy. She can both read and manipulate the strong emotions of others, which she perceives as colorful auras — but intense emotions can overwhelm Alex, as seen in the game’s debut trailer.

"Of the eight victims killed in this week's shooting rampage on massage spas in the Atlanta area, six were women of Asian descent.
Although authorities have said it's too early to declare the attack a hate crime, they said the gunman's actions — relying on the suspect's own words — were not racially motivated, but driven by a sex addiction. He confessed to officers that in committing the acts he wanted to "eliminate" a "temptation."
The implication that racism and sexism are two separate motivations has prompted outrage among Asian American women who say the two have always been inseparable in their experience — especially so in the context of the recent surge in anti-Asian attacks.
Between last March and February, the group Stop AAPI Hate found that Asian women reported 2.3 times more hate incidents than men.
Nancy Wang Yuen, a sociology professor at Biola University who specializes in race and ethnicity in media, told NPR that removing racism from the conversation ignores the history of hypersexualization and fetishization of Asian women in the U.S.

2018-2019 LGBTQ+ COUPLES
Hi! I know I haven’t posted in a while but I wanted to share my favorite and most recent wlw couples in case you guys were interested in watching them too! So if you’re in need of more gay in your life take a scroll below!
*SPOILER ALERTS*
1. Princess Bubblegum + Marceline (Adventure Time)
Obviously I had to put them in here… being one of the first openly wlw couples on a chilren’s cartoon show. They’re your typical friends to enemies to lovers trope except it’s a trope that ends well! So tune in to Adventure Time if you want laughs and lovable character development. Princess Bubblegum is the epitome of “independent woman” who plays off the softer Marcy (cute nickname she calls her) so well. I’d recommend the Stakes series that focuses on Marceline the lesbian vampire queen cause c’mon we all love a lesbian vampire fighting crime with her gf who’s a literal royal queen.
2. Kate + Rana (Coronation Street)
You might remember the show Coronation Street because of the classic couple Sophie and Sian (I know I made myself cry just typing those names out) And while most of us know how they end up I have hopes that Kate and Rana will get a happy ending. Again, I hope… I still haven’t finished watching their storyline. Unfortunately the actress who plays Rana is leaving the show but she said they’re still in the midst of filming more scenes. Having said that, it’s a great show. One word… drama. And more of it. They’re both such genuine characters and Rana is a POC (finally). At first their story focuses on Rana’s muslim background and how it affects their relationship. Again, there’s drama. But rightly so. It’s great to see a lesbian storyline covering these lowly represented stories. AND CAN I JUST SAY RANA IS SUCH A BEAUTIFUL PERSON LIKE OMYGOD. THE WAY SHE TALKS ABOUT KATE WHEN SHE ISNT THERE I COULD CRY.
3. Karolina + Nico (Marvel Runaways)
If you’re a slut for superheroes like me you’ll enjoy this one. (Bonus) more POC. And I mean they’re literally the human versions of Princess Bubblegum and Marceline how could you not like them. Seriously what are you doing not watching the show right now. Also someone once said Karolina (the blonde one) looks like Clarke and Lexa’s love child and I have not been able to unsee it… you’re welcome now you won’t either.
4. Elena + Syd (One Day At A Time)
Last but not least, the dorkiest lgbtq+ couple I could think of. Notice how I said lgbtq+ instead of lesbian because Syd (right) identifies as non-binary. Talk about open minded. This show is about a cuban family living in modern los angeles (a single mom, grandmother, brother, and sister: Elena). They’re both a good balance of political and fanatic. The show talks about lots of important and usually overlooked topics… at the same time, it keeps the relationship between Elena and Syd as genuine and relatable as possible. What’s not to love.
So there you have it! I hope you enjoyed/will enjoy these shows.
Oh. And almost forgot.
Of course I had to sneak them in there.
WHAT DID HE SEND
yoongi licking his bath bomb cuz he thought it will taste like orange vitamins and being disappointed cuz it’s nothing like it vs. jin drinking the saipan ocean water cuz it was clear then being disappointed cuz it was salty is the same energy
im actually dying rn
It’s those quiet late nights that best define us……
