i’m currently rewatching young royals and we really need to discuss why/how simon looked absolutely terrified when wilhelm was yelling at him over the drug/alexander situation. similar to the football field scene, i’m 99.99% sure that it was a little too similar to something he went through because of his dad and it HURTS
i’m not sure why, but i haven’t seen lots of info circulating about the current california wildfires, so i guess i’ll post it.
last week, california experienced a massive heat wave with temperatures ranging from 90-106 degrees F. during this heat, a thunder storm struck, creating 600 wildfires due to the mixing of lightning strikes with dry weather. 600,000 acres have burnt, 64,000 people have been asked to evacuate, and 5 people have died. atop of covid precautions, california is now experiencing massive drops in air quality, causing most northern california cities to experience unhealthy air quality. on saturday, august 22, the wildfires were declared a national emergency. and, there is another thunder storm forecasted to hit the bay area in the morning of sunday, august 23.
please help, if you can, by donating to the places below:

the red cross and salvation army are also accepting donations, but, as they both have a messy history regarding donation (mis)use, i’d HIGHLY SUGGEST donating to the above instead.
