op i’ve been thinking about this post for 3 years and it’s gotten me through some tough times
the pandemic is absolutely thriving in south asia. i’m not kidding. you might think the US is bad, but the situation in countries like india (which literally surpassed the US for the world’d highest single-day increase in cases) and nepal (which has seen a huge spike in cases recently) is genuinely reached horrible new highs. i have most of my extended family living in nepal, and they can’t go to the hospital for non-covid related issues. there’s barely any social distancing, around 250,000 people are homeless and have no access to proper sanitary resources, and everyone is terrified due to multiple conspiracies about the disease that are spreading like wildfire. the government is incompetent and has barely done anything to help people, and desperation is spreading. india is a bigger country with more resources, and is also suffering, but people in nepal, particularly the ones who live in slums or villages, are prime targets for the virus and will receive absolutely nothing from the government. if you are able, please donate to this fund to support children, particularly orphans, who have been left vulnerable by the effects of the pandemic in nepal. they need your help.

IF YOU ARE UNMARRIED, DON'T HAVE KIDS, AND HATE YOUR PARENTS PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD HAVE A FUCKING WILL
this has been a public service announcement from your friendly neighborhood probate lawyer
Again:
1. The law doesn't care how long your parents and family have been out of your life
2. The law doesn't care about your long term friends or "found family"
If you don't have legal documents that say otherwise, your biological family calls all the shots.
This goes especially for LGBTQ+. Please do not get deadnamed in your obituary.

Listen I don't have a very big reach and I am in Texas so I can't vote against this bill PLEASE signal boost this so people in Indiana can fight back against this!
The bill is stating ANYONE convicted of a protest-related charge (even if it is not related to actual lawbreaking like vandalism, looting or violence) will not only NOT get federal financial aid such as unemployment benefits but also will have to pay restitution to the law agency that arrested them on top of standard conviction/court fees
Ultimately the most efficient thing you can do to fight pseudoscientific, “alternative” medicine and quackery is to realize that a lot of people turn to it because they have been constantly misdiagnosed, dismissed, ridiculed and abused by actual doctors and healthcare professionals, and what alternative medicines actually provide is a seemingly compassionate environment were they feel heard, validated and respected. As long as people with chronic pain, for example, are told by doctors for years that they’re liars and fakers, there’s a good chance they’ll be tempted to look for something else: in one case they get no efficient medical treatment and are treated horribly, in the other they get no efficient medical treatment and are listened to and told their pain is real. As long as doctors continue to behave like this they’re in no position to criticize how gullible people are.

So in Brazil we were just hit by a huge cold front and in some parts of the country, people are seeing snow for the first time
Now Brazilian media is filled with American influences, so we've seen a lot of snow on TV and now that we finally get our hands on the stuff, we decide to have some fun right
The problem is that Brazilians really don't know how to build snowmen
