Alice in wonderland <3 excelent story!
I’m in the process of excavating old art folders and every now and then I find something that I kinda like, if I squint really hard.
The fact that I don’t see anything about the Louisiana flood on my dash or trending on any social network is sad. It’s a state emergency; three dead and 7k+ stranded and absolutely no one is talking about it. I’m so disappointed with where our priorities are at right now; we’re all too engrossed in the olympics to actually acknowledge and help those losing their homes and some of them have lost family.
My thoughts and prayers are with you, Louisiana. Stay safe everyone!
so in case you didn’t know a state of emergency has been declared in Louisiana, due to a 500 year historic rainfall, which is flooding entire parishes. Several parishes have already evacuated, yet there are still people stuck in their homes and stuck on the I-12 interstate.
This is a devastating disaster, especially for this state, considering how poorly we handled poor black communities in the flooding during Katrina. Here’s some gofundme pages for people affected by the flood. If anyone has any other donation links I haven’t put on here (I haven’t seen any black families with gofundme pages, I would like to spread word of those) please link them, because i can’t find them and this is a nightmare. So much has been lost.

The Flood.
I’m devastated, not only is this the first time but the second time this year we have to deal with such a tragic flood.
Keep Louisiana in your thoughts and if you’re religious keep in your prayers.

Everyone needs these work selfies of mine
And I really need to boost my confidence ATM…. Because well, this has been a hard week, and so I need to remind myself that I’m cute af.
I wonder
whose arms would I run and fall into
if I were drunk
in a room with everyone
I have ever loved.
