This is Saipan, a tiny but beautiful U.S. territory out in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. This is where I was born and raised. This is my home.
On Aug. 2, 2015, it was hit directly by Earth’s most powerful storm this year: Super Typhoon Soudelor. It was the worst typhoon our island has seen in a decade, and it was devastating. It is now in a state of emergency and flagged a “disaster area.”
Damaged cars, telephone poles, roofs, fallen trees amongst other debris now dominates this once beautiful island. These pictures are just a tiny fraction of all the damage taken from Super Typhoon Soudelor.
The airports and seaports were shut down. Emergency relief planes could not land for a time, because debris had to be removed from the airstrips.
The first plane to fly in held people from FEMA.
Entire homes have been claimed, leaving over 350 families homeless and living in makeshift shelters at various schools around the island, shelters which have been maxed out.
Amongst these people are my friends and family who have lost almost everything. (My own mom and sister had to take shelter in a neighbor’s home after a portion of our roof ripped off. They were nearly trapped in there, unable to open the door because the pressure in the house was too strong. I have several other family members and friends who have had their homes damaged.)
After the storm, a total of two Shell gas stations were up and operational. The lines for gas at each station were at least two miles long. Because of a 500 gallon leakage in the storage tanks into the port of Saipan, residents are only allowed $20 worth of gas each to help conserve the dwindling supply.
Only small sections of the island have running water, and the only power that is available is that through generators.
Fortunately, no casualties have been reported, and relief efforts are underway. Saipan is going to be only one of many victims of the strongest storm of the year.
The hardest thing for me about this situation is that I’m not there, and I can’t help them recover from this. Spreading the word is literally the only thing I can do that is within my power, and I’m asking for you to do the same.
Please donate to this cause to help save Saipan and the CNMI.

I understand if you can’t (hell, I’m not able to donate either), but please help get the word out and reblog this. This is my first time reaching out to the Tumblr community for help on such a serious matter, and I’m hoping it will be the last.
Please signal boost!

As people have requested. A more comprehensive description of the man who I am disgusted to admit I know.
I’m sure those in cosplay groups and those who had attended LFCC know of an incident involving a group of Gotham Sirens cosplayers. During a photo opp this man took the opportunity to grope a cosplayer to whom he was sharing a photo with. Naturally the next day the police where called and he was arrested. Currently he is facing a court date.
However, while he is now banned from attending all Showmasters events in the UK, there are still some conventions he is still able to attend. And while we can’t ban him, I feel it’s my duty to let other female cosplays around the Uk know of this man and arm themselves with the knowledge that he should be avoided.
