If you are in immediate need of evacuation due to flooding, DO NOT GO INTO YOUR ATTIC. YOU WILL DROWN. Get on your roof and tweet to the @USCoastGuard or call 281-464-4851. 911 is overloaded and cannot take any new calls.
DO. NOT. GO. INTO. YOUR. ATTIC.
If you’re outside of Houston, have a watercraft and want to help, call the coast guard at 281-464-4851. They’ll coordinate rescue efforts with you.
If you’re outside of Houston and want to help, PLEASE consider the 700K animals who died in Katrina and donate to the Humane Society or the SPCA.
Please consider the disabled, the elderly and special needs folks who are most likely unable to get somewhere due to financial or health reasons. PORTLIGHT.ORG is the BEST resource for rescue and assistance in the country.
I’ve been checking in with my Houston friends (and my Buddhist monks) and it’s terrifying. And the rain won’t stop until LABOR DAY.
Please. If you can, help. We’re on our f*cking own as a people. We need to help one another.
DO NOT WASTE TIME WITH THE RED CROSS. Focus on charities that DIRECTLY HELP HOUSTON/SURROUNDING AREAS.
DirectRelief.org is the #1, most reputable charity. Again, PORTLIGHT.ORG is so f*cking crucial, I can’t even stress that enough.
PLEASE NETWORK THIS POST!
Just like all rescues this year has been exceptionally full of seniors in need of complete health work up and or emergency care. It is the miracle of giving that allows us to continue the work we do for them, but we still need your help! The vet bill is $5735.97, $215.00 has been raised, $5520.97 is needed.
No donation is too small! $5, $10 or even $15 helps!
There are two ways that you can help the seniors at Forever Dream Senior Dog Sanctuary!
1. Network this post and video! One click of a mouse or tap of a phone will make a difference!
2. Donate via paypal: PayPal.Me/ForeverDreamSDS
It is hard to describe in words how grateful we are and how we could not do this work without the kindness of others. I have included a video of the seniors that your donations support for their needs and care.
Please network this post! Every share is a potential donation!
Update*** $546.00 has been raised! Please keep sharing! Thank you!
also please don’t joke about the flooding in Texas. i dont want to be a party pooper but many people close to me are badly affected by this and a lot of poor people and especially Black people and immigrants are suffering and have nowhere to go. and no “haha conservatives getting what’s coming to them” shit either. Thank you.
Sometimes I’m like, “I have a chronic illness and that’s fine! I’m going to take it easy, because that’s what my body needs!”
Other times I’m like, “Fuck this shit, I’m gonna carry 16 bags of groceries at once, who the fuck cares if I have an episode later, I’m not letting anyone do anything for me ever ‘cause I’m not a fucking wimp!” and then I’m writhing in pain for six hours BUT AT LEAST I PROVED MY WORTH.
ARPAIO MURDERED HER AND HUNDREDS OF OTHERS.
“Powell, 48, died May 20, 2009, after being kept in a human cage in Goodyear’s Perryville Prison for at least four hours in the blazing Arizona sun. This, despite a prison policy limiting such outside confinement to a maximum of two hours.
The county medical examiner found the cause of death to be due to complications from heat exposure. Her core body temperature upon examination was 108 degrees Fahrenheit. She suffered burns and blisters all over her body.
Witnesses say she was repeatedly denied water by corrections officers, though the c.o.’s deny this. The weather the day she collapsed from the heat (May 19 – she died in the early morning hours of May 20) arched just above a 107 degree high.
According to a 3,000 page report released by the ADC, she pleaded to be taken back inside, but was ignored. Similarly, she was not allowed to use the restroom. When she was found unconscious, her body was covered with excrement from soiling herself.
Powell, who was serving a 27-month sentence for prostitution, actually expired after being transported to West Valley Hospital, where acting ADC Director Charles Ryan made the decision to have her life support suspended.
(Ryan lacked the authority to do this, but that’s another story, which you can read about, here.)
