Boack people health conditions aren't taken seriously compared to others.Many black people are scared to go to the hospital for this reason
Black women are 4x likely to die from complications of childbirth than white women in the United states.they've had experience that has unacceptably poor maternal health outcomes
To those in Texas dealing with this shit show of a polar vortex, your friendly neighbourhood Canadian is here.
SO you’ve lost power and fucking freezing? First things first. You’re going to grab literally every blanket and pillow and cushion you can find.
Grab some newspaper or other papery material, it’s insulation.
Next, you’re going to build yourself a motherfucking blanket fort. Keep it small but with enough space you won’t feel like death.
Put the newspaper on the floor, put cushions and pillows, then your blankets. Build it up.
Any form of light source will also help (just please don’t light anything on fire). Keep that there.
As for clothing, you need to layer it up. Keep moisture wicking material as a base, then build it up. You might look like the Michelan tire man or Pillsbury Dough Boy but you’ll be warm.
If you have pets that are susceptible to the cold, put one of your shirts on them and bring them to the blanket fort.
KEEP YOUR TAPS DRIPPING SO THEY DON’T FREEZE.
DO NOT OPEN YOUR FRIDGE OR FREEZER UNLESS YOU HAVE TO. The temperature there will not protect your food enough.
If you have to go out at all, look for shiny patches on the road. That is black ice.
If you hit ice, don’t panic, don’t hit the pedals, lightly take your foot off the gas, steer into the skid to gain control again (do not over steer) and then straighten your wheel. Look where you want to go and then start slightly steering that way.
Pack clothes and blankets. Cardboard, shovel, and cat litter if you have it. This will help if you happen to get stuck.
IF YOU GET STUCK IN THE SNOW for the love of God do not just gun it. That will damage your vehicle and dig you into a bigger hole. You need to either wait for help or “rock” your vehicle. Hit the gas a little, then back off of it. Do this in a steady rhythm so that your car rocks. Rock with it.
Y'all can get through it. Stay safe my friends.
Wildlife photographer Joe Neely captured two bees snuggling in a flower, and the adorable pictures show a beautiful side of them we rarely witness.

Kinda unhappy with this one, had too much story/ideas in my mind, but too few pages lol. Anyway, the message is still important. Rabbits often suffer from poor keeping and are often abandoned, especially around Easter time.
I went to Disney a few months ago and took this waiting in line for the haunted mansion ride (it was my first time going on, I’m proud of myself).
Man it’s been awhile since I posted any pictures, huh?

It’s not really the same picture but I like it a lot more
More deer! Different place tho, this is outside my work
Heyo, so this is a piece I submitted to an art exhibition (my first time doing something like this!!) One of the prompts was ‘Peace and Panic’, so I decided to take that and go a more personal way with it. You can really interpret it however you wish, it’s really just meant to exist and illicit a reaction if you relate to it. Feel free to reblog it, just know this is supposed to relate to the Covid-19 pandemic and my feelings on it. So… Yeah.
| Roni | any pronouns | 19 | Photos taken by me, most of the time. You're gonna see a lot of sunsets bc those are the only things that I take pictures of, but I’m proud of them so it’s fine. Submissions welcome (SFW only pls!).
