He’s thanking the storm god, Tlaloc, for upholding his end of the Deal
he is literally going to make a statement in a few days about how this is a bigger natural disaster than any obama ever had to deal with and how he handled it better
it was huge. biggest in history, i’m told. and i addressed it better than any president, many people are saying, many many people
also I just want to clarify it’s okay if you can’t donate due to financial instability. you’re still providing help by spreading the word so that the people who CAN donate see it. thank you.
Guys, if you can, pls help. Houston is getting hit really bad atm, and so did corpus christi and all the towns in between. Some money to get the power and water running again, to help take care of those who got hurt in crashes and floods would be amazing. I have family in and around the area, so i would be so grateful if you can at least reblog to spread the word. Thank you so much and god bless.
I’ve found more ways to help:
Feeding Texas– a donation organization dedicated to feeding starving Texans. They’re gonna need it since many resources were lost.
Houston Food Bank-another donation organization dedicated to feeding the hungry, particularly in Houston where they were hit very hard.
Coalition for the Homeless– provides vital information about shelters that are open to the homeless, or people who lost their homes.
Port Aransas was completely devastated, it was recently reported that they have 100% devastation and no functional infrastructure
Rockport was completely wiped out and Aransas Pass took a large portion of the storm Please keep Houston with its flooding and all the small coastal towns who took the brunt of Harvey in your minds
Also www.texasdiaperbank.org needs donations they help to get displaced families the essentials they need
As a Houstonian, I have to tell you how devastating this will be for animals, domestic and wild. A lot of the rescues will take place over the next several days and week.
so if anyone sees a large amount of Transformers like these on eBay or anything, please let me know because I just got robbed and along with my TV and PS4 and computer and wallet and pretty much every fucking valuable thing I have, they stole a shitload of my TF collection. also not pictured is the 2.5 foot tall Metroplex, he will be getting sold without his red gun cuz they dropped that
this is not what I wanted for my birthday
they left Valvotron tho
That’s terrible…I’m so sorry that has happened to you and I’m glad you weren’t there when it happened and are safe..
we were home, we were upstairs and they were very quiet. we’re lucky in that regard. good advice from @trinketsandtangles to call local toy stores, I’ll do that now
edited to add that I’m in San Antonio TX and thus happened today August 9 2017
Millennials seem to think encouraging our youth to get an education and not get drunk is a bad idea?
Also, education prices have only skyrocketed because of gov’t involvement. The solution to lowering costs is not more gov’t involvement. It’s to remove the gov’t and make colleges compete for your money.
Funny how the youth’s parents are quietly left out of this little scenario.
No, the issue here is I’m an adult by law. I should have the right to buy whatever the hell I want as long as I don’t hurt somebody else with it. I’m signed up for the draft, clearly I’m old enough to die for this country, but I can’t buy a beer. Bull shit. If I want to buy beer or any other form off alcohol and I am responsible with it, I should have the right to do so.
That was exactly the argument that got the age of majority in the US decreased to 18 in the early ‘70s. Prompted by the Vietnam War. If people were old enough to be drafted at 18, they should have full civil rights and be able to vote.
That did include the legal drinking age too, but the Reagan-era National Minimum Drinking Age Act changed that by yanking federal highway funding from states that didn’t restrict alcohol sales to people at least 21 again. (With an interesting summary of the earlier history there.)
By 1995, all 50 states, two permanently inhabited territories, and D.C. were in compliance, but Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands (and Guam until 2010) remained at 18 despite them losing 10% of federal highway funding.
Stated goal of reducing road fatalities or not, that still looks like a really bad decision.
Yeah. Drinking age in the US needs to change.
Also LOL at the “make colleges compete for your money”. Buddy, the system has had less and less government money since the 70s, and that is what got us the sky high prices. Protip: College isn’t a “free market” for a bunch of reasons, and even if it were, the “free market” is only too happy to take you for all you are worth… over your entire earning lifetime
