Science: "hey if we don't do something about climate change there's a POSSIBILITY of increasingly catastrophic weather phenomena within our lifetimes, as you know a projected worst case scenario we could mitigate, not saying it's happening on any particular schedule but the trends are alarming! Let's try and reduce those odds!" Media: "hear that??? All the scientists literally said global warming will obliterate swathes of civilization in like 10 years. New York City will be underwater just like in these dramatized movies about it" Conservatives: "ummm it's not happening exactly that way so obviously scientists were WRONG about what we falsely think they were saying and therefore climate change is not really anyone's fault and can't be averted and won't hurt us so let's do more fracking" Climate: *goes ahead and does that shit anyway but somehow that debate continues exactly fucking the same and probably will for the rest of our shittier and shittier lives*
Please, don't ignore this message—your support can save the lives of many LGBTQIA+ refugees in desperate need.
As you may know, we are LGBTQIA+ individuals who fled our homes in search of safety here in South Sudan. Unfortunately, life hasn’t improved. We face daily persecution, and it’s even worse for those of us living with HIV/AIDS without access to proper medication. We struggle without clean water or enough food to eat. When we manage to eat today, we’re left worrying about tomorrow.
Life is slipping away, moment by moment. The ongoing civil war in South Sudan has only made things more dangerous for us, and resources are extremely limited. Right now, we rely on your donations for survival. Every bit of support helps, no matter how small or large.
We are urgently seeking your help. Please donate to this link and be the lifeline we so desperately need.
So...here is the fourth of my drawings for October 2024. Tomorrow I hope I make something more complex.
So. Anyway, today I tried to sign in to a site to get some help.
But then I got blocked from doing this by fucking Sucuri. A firewall/defense program I never heard of before.
And as you can imagine, I got scared, and though it was malware. But I checked online, and seen that some others had similar issues with what I had, with this program just.......blocking some people for random reasons. Including the users of that site. And so I calmed the fuck down.
Did anyone ever had some similar issues?
This is my story in short, please share with me, I am a Type 1 Diabetic. I was diagnosed in February 2021 after being very sick and I weighed 88 lbs. For the last two and a half years I have had to inject insulin 4+ times for day every day, to stay within my blood glucose level.
In December 2022 I was hospitalized and had to have emergency surgery where I had to stay at home for the entire period of my illness without working, and I also had DKA aka Diabetic ketoacidosis is a serious complication of diabetes that occurs when your body produces high levels of blood acids called ketones.
Diabetic ketoacidosis develops when your body cannot produce enough insulin. Insulin normally plays an important role in helping sugar (glucose), the main source of energy for your muscles and other tissues, enter your cells. Without enough insulin, your body begins to break down fat as an alternative fuel. This process produces a buildup of toxic acids in the bloodstream called ketones, eventually leading to diabetic ketoacidosis if left untreated.
After a while, August 2024 I finally got to see an endocrinologist, who specializes in Type 1 Diabetes. Who told me that an insulin pump would be a good device for me?
Currently the device you see in the picture is the most needed to control my diabetes. I was recently approved for an insulin pump that will help me better control my diabetes. Although I am happy that I am approved the hardest part is coming up with the funds to pay for the pump and equipment.
A donation of any amount will be greatly appreciated even if you can't donate but if you share the story against friends It will help. Thanks to anyone and everyone who is willing to help.

I am still low in my campaign. ❣️❣️
me @ France right now
So. It is October, and I though to myself....I dont draw enough. Personal problems are a reason, but another is that fact that I keep procrastinating. So I decided...what the hell. If I want to improve, I need to draw. So I decided, each day I am drawing something different this October.
Would I actually succeed? Well, maybe if I keep a lot of them simple.
But I am still going to try.
Anyway, here is this pumpkin I drew today. The perspective is not the best, but I am at least proud of it for now.
Oameni buni și frați in patrie, cum am ajuns sa fim într-o situație ca cea din SUA?
Și alta intrebare, cine e Georgescu asta și de cine a fost pus
Că singur nu a strâns atâtea voturi morții lui
La turul 2 votați fie cu Lasconi fie cu PSD, care o pica
Că altfel rămânem fără țară
Vai de noi
I am confident that after reading my sad story, you will sympathize with me and share with me and will not leave me and my child Karam alone.
Every single person who's ever been associated with trek could tell me I'm wrong and I would still believe unwaveringly that this is Jonathan Archer's official Starfleet file photo
